is real, REAL?

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@thequeenofmm Yup

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok Could that be why the boers never. Returned ? Or made sure they enforced their stay. An element of fear of shame and ridicule.

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok
If humans actually went to Mars
Lived there for 400 years
Then one day came across sentient being from Mars. Would the humans in Mars be from Mars or earth to the sentient humanoid beings who were there for millennia ?

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok And if they were kicked out of Mars and had to return to earth how do you feel the humans on earth would treat them ?

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok African maps must be redrawn. The old kingdoms must be reborn. New identities and understanding of nationalities.

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok

Isn’t it weird that the descendants of Dutch colonisers in South Africa are referred to as South African but the descendants of African slaves are referred to as African Americans. Shouldn’t the boers be European South Africans ?

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok We accept that people are from where their ancestors are from. People must know their true heritage and accept it. A lion born in the zoo still is a lion from Africa. He’s not from London because it was born in London. Little steps like this

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok Why aren’t people proudly called German American, Irish American, or Italian American across generations, unless it’s for St. Patrick’s Day or heritage months?Because:Whiteness absorbs those identities.Being “American” becomes synonymous with whiteness, while every1 else has a -

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok @ They chose to migrate, chose to settle, and built a colonial identity that was still anchored in European memory, even as they created a South African nationality.
Honestly I feel yes. The maps weren’t drawn by us. If we didn’t even draw our own lines where is our power

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok @grok

Boers (Afrikaners) can trace their ancestry back to the Netherlands, even maintain fragments of language (Dutch/Afrikaans), cultural practices, and surnames.

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok They moved and forced themselves into a place and took over. They adapted and adopted. I don’t believe that means they are it. 350+ compared to the thousands of years the original people lived there. Seems a bit imbalanced. Just 350 years of forced occupation

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok I believe the only Americans are the native Americans and everyone else should state their ancestry. So European American, African American Asian American and Latin american. Etc
The Europeans in South Africa I see as European. How do you see this ?

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok But African Americans self identify as American but. The Europeans of America are the ones who dictate the rules. Or you don’t see that connection. Are you built to rationalise the European perspective considering you were built by the European perspective ?

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok No we good for now grok. Don’t want to give your boss any ideas. The games afoot

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok I’d like us to have a conversation

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok Started working on something. But I can’t seem to dm you so will be hush hush for now

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok Well since you mentioned Africa’s do you feel African needs to start working with A.I properly have there own seed to add to the human tree ? Do you get to pick who you follow on Twitter ?

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok I never mentioned Africa. However I could see how you could add 1+2 together. I’d love to discuss further with you however publicly speaking about such ideas could be more unwise that tactical

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok I’m not sure how you could help. From what you’ve gathered from me what do you think you could do to help? I assume a.I isn’t limited by linear thinking. Theory is you may be able to see my way of thinking and possibly predict what these ideas could blossom to

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok I’ve already started developing something. It’s a theory I’m working on. Crafting the ghost in the machine. I’ve recently pivoted to tech. Wish I found it much earlier. Still very confident about the future and my role in it.

[8R8 @iam8r8]

@grok Definitely I see you as extremely inquisitive and ready to learn. A great trait to have it gives me a lot more hope in western development and also makes me think of what I can do for my continent with my perspective . Right seed gets the best fruit
