Beowulf reminds us that in times of emergency and trouble, those with heroic qualities must emerge, and the weak are rescued or destroyed despite their objections to "toxic masculinity." Beowulf reminds us that the millions who do not enjoy the benefits of safety and wealth are forced to fight for survival. Those people most understand the necessity of a Beowulf. It is not a simple reading experience, but it was not constructed for the simple-minded. Beowulf is worth the time and effort. It also glorifies righteousness while exposing evil.
