Agriculture was invented ~6000 years ago

2018-10-11 02:28:48 UTC  

Egypt... Mesopotamia... China... India... and in the Americas

2018-10-11 02:29:00 UTC  

iirc there was that one civilization on the caspian who made it too

2018-10-11 02:29:03 UTC  

but you get the point

2018-10-11 02:29:04 UTC  

Tell me what black people have invented

2018-10-11 02:29:13 UTC  

Compared to white peoples

2018-10-11 02:29:16 UTC  

Throughout history

2018-10-11 02:29:27 UTC  

Many things you probably have no idea about.

2018-10-11 02:29:34 UTC

Only truly remarkable thing I can think of is peanut butter

2018-10-11 02:29:55 UTC  

The Lateen sail, for instance, was used by Africans from Kilwa hundreds of years before Europeans created it

2018-10-11 02:30:16 UTC  

So if they were hundreds of years ahead

2018-10-11 02:30:30 UTC  

In a particular type of seafaring technology

2018-10-11 02:30:30 UTC  

How did they end up with lower intelligence and comprehension then Europeans

2018-10-11 02:30:36 UTC  

They didn't, though

2018-10-11 02:30:44 UTC  

Need we go through this again?

2018-10-11 02:30:52 UTC  

How did they end up poorer

2018-10-11 02:31:01 UTC  

European exploitation

2018-10-11 02:31:05 UTC  

because the europeans fucked them over

2018-10-11 02:31:11 UTC  

But if they were so much more advanced

2018-10-11 02:31:15 UTC  

Logan.

2018-10-11 02:31:18 UTC  

According to you

2018-10-11 02:31:19 UTC  

Was China advanced?

2018-10-11 02:31:19 UTC  

give them a hundred years

2018-10-11 02:31:21 UTC  

Were they?

2018-10-11 02:31:23 UTC  

Yes or no

2018-10-11 02:31:25 UTC  

Yes

2018-10-11 02:31:26 UTC  

In ~1300

2018-10-11 02:31:27 UTC  

okay

2018-10-11 02:31:32 UTC  

eh, in ~1500

2018-10-11 02:31:36 UTC  

Why the fuck didn't they have guns?

2018-10-11 02:31:40 UTC  

Or colonies in the New World?

2018-10-11 02:31:43 UTC  

I can answer this for you.

2018-10-11 02:31:49 UTC  

It's because they didn't need it

2018-10-11 02:31:49 UTC  

They had guns.

2018-10-11 02:31:52 UTC  

There was no real push

2018-10-11 02:31:57 UTC  

Well, largescale gunpowder armies

2018-10-11 02:31:58 UTC  

Or cannons

2018-10-11 02:32:02 UTC  

firecrackers attached to sticks.

2018-10-11 02:32:03 UTC

2018-10-11 02:32:03 UTC  

As Europeans were adapting to
