  3. He is just trolling us....nobody is that stupid.

    He says South America again after 2 South America examples.

    I think sometimes we should not pick on members here who are on the spectrum so we should let him be.

  4. Like the Western Culture the West stole from Egypt, Northern Africa and Asia? Got it.

    Alphabet and writing....West stole.

    Gunpowder.... West stole

    Math,,, West stole

    Western culture just takes what others have done. If the Peruvian guy was at a French school how come not one French guy came up with the rocket engine? Because the French are only good for wine and bending over when the Germans come.

    I've never really studied this out, but I would have to assume that the majority of significant innovation has come from the most advanced societies at any given point in time throughout history. You're much more likely to see innovation come out of a country with advanced education than from a 3rd world country where education is lagging behind. This has nothing to with race, it has to do with opportunity.

    I did not say that. But it's more correct to divide by people and genetics rather than continents.

    How do you figure? Some of the most productive areas have no significant resources to speak of. And some of the resource rich areas are the poorest. Evolutionary pressure and all that.

  8. The problem is lack of respect for at the time advanced civilizations that invented and created things that now seem 3rd world to elite Americans and those contributions are dismissed.

    If this is true, how did the west become more powerful than the civilizations that created it?

  10. And you’re trying to claim greatness because of your whiteness? Looking to take credit for someone else’s accomplishments? What have you done that distinguishes you from anyone else, of any color or origin?
