@Quinquegentia@adamemedia I’m fully in support of this trend. The British and the French will insult each other until the end of time but nobody else is allowed to.
@JohnMcKee1980@2147mill@Martin83sniper IQ isn’t a real metric, as I said earlier. Also I note you dodged the question of why it matters if the academic is Jewish?
@JohnMcKee1980@2147mill@Martin83sniper I don’t use AI on principle, but I’ve read plenty and formed my own opinion. My opinion happens to be the same as the scholarly consensus and not yours because I listen to experts in their field and not some random guy on Twitter.
@JohnMcKee1980@2147mill@Martin83sniper 4. Coal. Coal does occur in parts of Africa but not in the density, quality or closeness to the surface that it does in Eurasia. Coal is one of the single biggest accelerants of industrialisation in history and had a huge hand in Europe’s development.
@JohnMcKee1980@2147mill@Martin83sniper African societies were making high-grade steel as far back as 400 BC. Your case falls apart under minimal scrutiny.
@JohnMcKee1980@2147mill@Martin83sniper I mean the answer to that first question is “colonial exploitation”. The answer the other questions is also colonial exploitation. Also that meme is just straight up untrue. African territories pre-white interference had large cities, agriculture and other basic infrastructure.
@JohnMcKee1980@2147mill@Martin83sniper Leaving aside the fact that IQ as an intelligence metric has been debunked several times in the last 50 years, do you think its a surprise that the part of the world that has been subjected to constant war, famine & disease for the last two centuries has a low level of education?
