You can't debate ignorant people. I mean, really, this is a guy that believes that black people in Africa were just stupid, period. And then, white people kept them stupid. Back in the early centuries, we ALL had the same level of intelligence, in our respective worlds. And that's all we needed. So in that since, everyone was "smart". They knew what they needed to know to survive. Europeans branching out across the world (as much as it helped shape the world today) was what changed everything. But just because they did that branching out doesn't therefore turn Africans stupid (or rather, "made" stupid, then afterwards, "kept" stupid). Quote: "Black people being not as smart is a fault of their own" Do you really want to argue with someone like that, as easily as it would be to prove him wrong? You could prove him wrong on every aspect of the debate, and he would still push his ignorant point forward. He's lucky he wasn't permabanned, but he should've been |
"that black people in Africa were just stupid"
Well, I think he used "dumb".
Whatever, perhaps, what mister Samus Aran wanted to say is that African people were lacking knowledge and technology, explaining why it was possible for europeans to use them as slaves, to stop them from learning, and to ultimately "steal" Africa.
When Samus Aran claimed :"Black people being not as smart is a fault of their own", he perhaps means : "black people were lacking knowledge before europeans come to Africa, it is not du to european countries". That doesn't reduce the way european countries are guilty for slavery.
Neverthless, I agree that he was clearely too harsh in the form.
Do you really want to argue with someone like that, as easily as it would be to prove him wrong?
Was he truly wrong ? Since he was banned, we will never know.
In any case, stoping a discussion, a debat is really the worst thing that could happen in my opinion.
Time to Work !
