@1007Mjosh@NevadaLiberty64@ImMeme0 You’re obsessing over the name while ignoring the bigger issue. Isa in the Qur’an and Jesus in the Bible refer to the same figure. The revelation to Jesus was from God,but the message recorded later was corrupted after him. So arguing over Isa vs Yasu doesn’t prove your theology
@XXSZ6e4kHk51Ap0@__SeriousGemini@elonmusk Nobunaga granted Yasuke a sword, residence, and stipend. clear indicators of samurai status at the time. Samurai weren’t defined only by famous battlefield records, but by formal service under a daimyo. That’s why portraying him as a samurai is historically defensible.
@SteveJeff84908@__SeriousGemini@elonmusk Oda Nobunaga was never stripped of credentials he was betrayed and killed during the 1582 Honnō-ji Incident, not removed from rank. At the time of his death, he was still one of the most powerful daimyo in Japan.
@datboi06431847@__SeriousGemini@elonmusk Yasuke was given samurai status under Oda Nobunaga. He received a sword, a residence, a stipend, and fought in battle all clear markers of samurai rank in the Sengoku period.
@AfroMasculinity@__SeriousGemini@elonmusk I agree to a certain extent, the issue is that Black presence is being treated as something that needs justification. White presence in African or non-European settings is almost never questioned the same way. Also modern storytelling doesn’t operate on medieval census data.
@__SeriousGemini@elonmusk Except Yasuke was a real samurai of African origin who the game based the character off of, so before being a low iq racist do some research you dumb fuck
@Angel_Media_ First, the percentages are wrong. AIPAC’s $3.5M out of $4.5B in lobbying isn’t 0.00077%, it’s about 0.08%. And $100M out of $15.9B isn’t 0.0065%, it’s ≈ 0.6%. That’s a 100× difference. Can you please stop being a stupid bitch and be honest 🤦♂️
