Iol yea the natives of America at that time were really a thriving civilization with governments and institutions.

Aztecs and Incas would like a word.

Didn't the Aztecs invent rubber, or was that the Mayans?

Riiight, you're not a white supremacist, just a guy who hates his own kind and other non-whites and once said whites are better than all other races. I don't call all Trump supporters white supremacists. But if it walks like a duck...

that's dumb ass hell , so just because I agree with Trump supports I automatically hate my own people? lmao

You do know the US Constitution was partially inspired by the Iroquois Confederacy's, right?

no no no that's shifting goal posts bruh we learn about the most powerful in history we don't learn about "the most flourishing" we learned about the Romans because they were the most powerful, then we learned about the Spaniards because they were the most powerful. Saying some dumb ass thing like "hurr we didn't learn about all the other Civilizations because racism!" is pretty stupid

Some of these posters think i hate my own middle eastern people because i criticize Islam and defend whites from racism.

You can't win with these types of people.

So? Shall I list the awful things that the European colonial powers did?

Mesoamericans independently invented agriculture, built amazing stone structures, had a written language, cultivated many vegetables that dominate certain modern cuisines, and invented the rubber ball which later led to the vulcanized rubber that changed the world.

No no, it had nothing to do with Trump. It was from the topic where you earned your little tag. :v You claimed whites should always stay in charge in the US because only they know how to run a country and cited the failings of Latin American, African, and Asian countries as your "proof" of that. Kinda like you're saying whites are "better" for America, like "superior", kinda like a white suprema

No no no no I said if a white guy would do better for a Southern American country then he can take charge all he wants. You just bitch and whine and call everyone a white supremacist because you have no argument

Protip: the last 3 Peruvian president have been I'mpeached and one of them is in a UN prison.

CrimsonRage posted...

I didn't shift any goalposts. All that guy said was other societies flourished and it wouldn't hurt to learn about them. You're the one shifting it to mean "the most powerful", hon.

You're 100% moving goal posts lmao, why would we learn about other societies when we could be learning about the strongest? Seems like a waste of time

Edit: specially when the guy makes it seem like the only reason we don't hear about those societies is because "Romans were white guys" get your shit together babe

Because other societies contributed stuff too, not just "the strongest". Ancient Greece wasn't a very historically "strong" society and they started Western civilisation.

Greece was 100% a strong society what a stupid comment

CrimsonRage posted...

And strong societies tend to absorb ideas and talents from the weaker societies they conquer. To have a full understanding of the world, it's important to learn as much as you can about everywhere.

This is pretty much "my feelings!" The posts. Imagine seriously learning about unimportant societies in a basic history class. This is something a cuck who votes Sanders would want tbh

CrimsonRage posted...

Man, no wonder you come off as uneducated. Are you really satisfied keeping your knowledge this limited? It's sad. :(

You come off as a sad excuse of a person who can't even argue properly so you pick and choose which arguments to argue because you have nothing to argue about bruh.

What about the other half of my post? Lmao pathetic

George Bush launched a investigation into the violation of civil rights in the Rodney King case. After the O.J case, he was tried for civil rights. So, whats your point?

Going to willfully ignore that investigations and charges against the officers in King's case wasn't centered around nor focused on whether it was a hate crime, but rather violations of excessive force in the process of arrest?

Somebody died for no reason. That qualifies as a devastating tragedy... But only in your world if they are white, right?

lmao, no reason, ok. As if Zimmerman just popped out of nowhere, told Martin to get on his knees, and executed him Hollywood-style.

Yes, please think that only white people find Trayvon Martin's death to not be tragedy.
Hint: Asians don't really care, you goober.

Going to be fucking ignorant, I see. Typical.
Bush's DoJ looked into excessive force being used, Obama's DoJ looked for evidence that Zimmerman's action was based on racism (Hate crime). Nowhere in the former had racism or the topic of race in general been part of the charge held against the 4 officers.

Lmfao.

Of course he wasn't formally charged with a crime.
But he engaged in assault, and thus paid for it when his target utilized Self-defense.

You do know the US Constitution was partially inspired by the Iroquois Confederacy's, right?

I hate to get involved but from what I have heard the Iroquois Confederacy's influence myth was debunked (may be wrong on this), but even still what would that have to do with Columbus coming to the americas? The IC was founded around 1570-1600, and as the rhyme goes Columbus sailed the ocean blue in 1492 which was around 80 years before its founding. Heck he died in 1506.

If my info is wrong I am sorry, but I just wanted to put this out there.

Edit- I can't find conclusive answers on if it did or did not influence it so take the debunked claim as unconfirmed.

It's hard to make the claim when there's a Congressional resolution stating that the Iroquois Confederacy was an influence on the formation of the US government. https://www.senate.gov/reference/resources/pdf/hconres331.pdf

Then there's the whole Articles of Confederation thing which would suggest that some ideas were adopted from the neighboring Confederacy.

Fair enough I was going on incorrect info on that part, but still has little if anything to do with Columbus as far as I can see.

Thank you for the verification on that though, and I am sorry for posting incorrect info.

As the first Black man to be President his job was to divide the gap between white and black. Instead he fueled the Black community's perpetual pity party and stoked their revenge fueled selves.Remember: the president stands to unite ALL RACEs not Blacks. Obama continually alienated White people by paling around with rappers and shit.

Not really Obama himself but the DNC specifically choosing a black candidate and many of his voters inevitably voting for him for no reason other than race (as well as many Republicans suddenly having the equal and opposite reaction).

Really this would have happened with any first black president. Though I wonder just how much the damage would be mitigated if the first black president were Republican.

I really have to question the rationality of anyone who thinks Trayvon was liable for Assault charges based on literally everything involved in the discovery. There isn't a single shred of evidence that Trayvon got home then went out to confront Zimmerman. There is records of Zimmerman following Martin despite advice not to. There is evidence of Zimmerman's paranoid state of mind from recent previous calls to police. The key witness (Who was generally awful, but the only direct witness) testified that Trayvon was unnerved by Zimmerman's behavior (And reasonably so--Being followed in the dark of night by a stranger is an undoubtedly reasonable fear). Then there is an inconclusive scuffle ending in Trayvon being killed. Extrapolating Trayvon initiating assault from that is irrational.

Yes there is.

The timing, the phone, Zimmerman, his girlfriend, the location. The wounds Zimmerman + Trayvon's knuckles.

There's more evidence that Trayvon got away then turned around and went to confront Zimmerman than there is that Jesus was crucified.

...

No one extrpolates that Trayvon assaulted Zimmerman "Because Zimmerman said Trayvon was scurred!" they say that he assaulted Zimmerman because a truck-load of evidence says so. No one who followed the case even denies it. Including Trayvon's own defense

Now you now you are bull shitting. The wounds, You know I can post video of people starting a fight and then ended up KOed. So that doesn't prove anything. Next his girlfriend. His girlfriend said that Martin said GET OFF ME. This would make on think that Zimmerman grabbed him, and since she was on the phone with him at the time that is not logical he woudl try to start the fight. The location. Zimmerman was 40 feet for where is said he stopped the make his phone call and that Martin dropped him with on punch. This would mean that Martin would have had to knock him 40 feet with on blow.

http://abcnews.go.com/2020/george-zimmerman-jury-told-injuries-insignificant/story?id=19552856

"Dr. Valerie Rao testified that Zimmerman was struck as few as three times by Martin during the fight that night. She also asserted his head may have only been slammed on the concrete a single time.
[...]
During the defense's cross examination of Rao, Zimmerman attorney Mark O'Mara got Rao to concede that his client's injuries could have been caused by more than three impacts. She also indicated that abrasions on Martin's knuckles were consistent with him striking someone. "

Who to believe, a medical examiner who reviewed the injuries, or Gamefaqs' resident boy-who-cried-racism.

I don't feel like looking into into Obama's offhand comments at the moment but I'd like a source for this claim. You can link whatever website since if it's false it'll be easy to pick apart.

Yes. PLEASE show us the source for this. (Or is this one the many bullshit lies you always telling)

If he "shit on cops" then Donnie has done much worse to the military. And if empathizing with a murdered black child means he "set race relations back" then Donnie has built his own time machine, gone back to when race relations first started, and ripped the wings off of every fucking butterfly he could find.

It's true. Obama and the left just pander to black people; they act like perpetually being shot by police and not being able to escape poverty is the story of pretty much every black person. However, there are a lot of black people who started out in a difficult place and with nothing, and they worked hard and now have pretty good lives and careers. This entire class of black people is basically ignored by liberals and treated as if they don't exist. When they see Trump see another guy who started out with nothing and had to work hard to get head. They see someone who actually understands their story. That's much more important than something superficial like skin color.

That is why like 95% of black people voted for Obama. Get out of here with that shit. Next Trump didn't start out with nothing , his father gave him millions. Next Obama was born to the single mother and worked his way to president . Republicans should love this guy. He was the boot strap case you people always going about.
