They havent even proven that much
And Africa is still a bunch of shitholes
Well, they prove the alt right right...
Black Panther was an altright movie
Replace everything with white, and people will yell racist.
Ethnostate that refuses refugees or helping other nations with their advanced tech
They see nothing but skin color
And that annoysme
@Deleted User Exactly. That's postmodernism mixed with postcolonialism (the academic field). Postmodernism or more specifically poststructuralism is, as the name suggests, about deconstructing everything. ie. Tearing everything down (because it's all racist and sexist). Postcolonialism is a branch of critical theory coming up with babble about how and why the western world and everything emanating from it is racist.
That "science must fall" case was your perfect example.
Its weird, because in the comics wakanda was like saudi arabia
Except instead of oil, it's Vibranium
You know, sometimes it's like it's the academics that are more retarded than the general public
@GingaBomber
"Through the black magic, you are able to send the lightning to strike someone. Can you explain that scientifically?"
-interrupts- "it's not true"
-some time later- "see and that response is why I'm not on the science faculty...western modernity is totalizing...you need to de-colonize your mind"

Wakanda is a fascist state! Really. Autocratic rule. Militarized population. Strong emphasis on "the nation". Isolationism. No foreign trading or immigration. And Wakanda will've had to have colonised land to have created itself.
'fallist' lmfao
@Sarah Jessica Farter wakanda isn't fascist, it's a constitutional monarchy
IIRC the guy who interrupted was thrown out shortly thereafter after challenging the speaker to 'use your voodoo to strike me down"
They have a book of rules
Proto-fascist then
And there's the king and smaller leaders
It's more like the UK
In the comics, that is
UK isnt fascist, fingers crossed we'll get there though ๐
In the comics they're fine with white people
And all races
They never even know about slavery and stuff
@Deleted User "I am obliged to confess I should sooner live in a society governed by the first two thousand names in the Boston telephone directory than in a society governed by the two thousand faculty members of Harvard University." -- William F. Buckley
Yes
Agree
Ah ok. I havent read the comics. I'll take your word for it, thanks for the correction. I think what we still could say though is that the SJW love for Wakanda makes them hypocrites.
Lol sjws would hate normal wakanda
They co operate with other countries, trading vibranium for tech
Free trade, full on capitalist
What makes it special is that it's like Wonka's factory
But vibranium
Literally everything in vibranium
From insects to the grass
Oh really? Shit, I'd only read reviews of the Black Panther film (I didnt even see it) and I got quite a misinforned view of Wakanda then.
Dude, black panther is one of the only series I like
In marvel
Cool. Wish I was into comics and stuff but it passed me by growing up. I have friends who talk about their love for Marvel and I have nothing to contribute to the conversation sadly.
I got into marvel cos that's how I started learning to read
Daredevil and punisher comics lol
Ha! Nice ๐
If you're interested, I highly recommend reading Civil war. It's a masterpiece
Nothing like the movie
Cool, is it online or something you got to buy?
You can get it online if you know where to look
Heheheh
I know what you mean, I'll keep an eye out!
I was too fucking hyperactive as a kid so I spent all my time playing football and stuff like that. Wish I was more into more sort of artistic stuff, which I include comics under. Even video games I know nothing about. I'm too restless for them even! ๐
Well, the only reason I learnt to read is because we shifted to another state, and my dad couldn't get a TV
He bought me a bunch of books
I think the first book I've read was Punisher edition 127 or something like that
Lots of gore lol
That's why you like your Serbian films then! You started young!
But the first serious book I've read was The Complete Collection of Sherlock Holmes
I read the Three Kingdoms I remember
I dont know what phase I went through
My friend (the one of Pakistani parents I keep mentioning) adores the Sherlock Holmes books.
but Id read just... Really wierd books
I despise the cumberbatch series so much dude
Hahaha! Big Benedict!
I literally hate every single thing about it
Wakanda in the comics were dickbag who didnt help stop the slave trade. They dont like black plebs
Except Watson
Watson was great
They fucked up moriarty
Watson will always be best boi in any iteration of sherlock Holmes
They fucked up Mycroft
They fucked up Irene Adler
They fucked up literally everything you could possibly fuck up
I love the loyalty of sidekick characters like Watson. We all wish we had a Watson to rely on.
Nah, that's not the thing
Watson isn't complete loyal
That's why I like him so much
Sherlock keeps manipulating him
Ah, well as usual, I haven't read anything. So Watson was more innocent then than Holmes?
You know Wilson in House MD
That's what Watson is like
Ah ok, yeah.
He's his own guy, but cares way too much about sherlock
He betrays Sherlock sometimes cos he was too worried
You know, make House a really well behaved guy, and well dressed, and a good fighter
I like that dynamic in stories too, where a relationship is unequal. That's how pretty much every human relationship is. Then we realise our relationships aren't perfectly mutual which can cause insecurities and sometimes poor decisions from those insecurities.
That's sherlock
Yeah, I've no doubt the writer of House was inspired by Sherlock (among many other characters from literary history).
Dude I just realised
Holmes
Homes
Houses
House
Hahaha! Shit, you could be right! That's probably not just a coincidence.
Also Arthur Conan Doyle was a doctor...
And house lives in 22B
like 22 Baker Street
Dude
I cracked the code
Hehehe
He was from Edinburgh, Conan Doyle, same city I'm in right now. Apparently he based Sherlock on a real life doctor acquaintance.
@Deleted User You're right, btw. I'd never noticed the connection before.
