Anyone wanna debate any non american politics
Or ideological and economic stuff.
right wing ideology and rhetoric is rubbish
it's predicated on fairytale economic concepts and theories that hold no weight in the real world
I would know speaking as a former 'classical liberal'
it sure was simpler back then, but unfortunately it doesn't address a slew of issues and assumes the free market (which is guaranteed by the government by the way) will fix everything
is everyone on here republican or ?
No
Nah. We got people of all views
ah alr just wanted to see the point of view of a republican
nah im a dirty centrist
"Dirty" 👀
yo anyone want to debate trans rights in here wif me
and some other stuff
Look at this propaganda they released
Lol so anyone who improves on an invention becomes the inventor.
Nice
No just if they’re gay or black
yeah because screw minorities
if they did a good, no theyn didnt
No, it's a totally different thing to say "this person can be attributed to this invention" when all they did was improve on it. He patented the carbon filament ***not*** the lightbulb. To try and say thomas edison didn't invent the lightbulb is an absolute piss take.
You could argue and say it was Joseph Swan or even Humphry Davy who really invented the light bulb yet these are men who actually made something akin to the incandescent lightbulb but to say the man who patented the carbon filament, an improvement for a pre-existing invention, is the one who invented it?
That's like saying the man who invented grease or oil for playground slides invented the slide because he improved upon them.
Monark that’s one of the most retarded things I’ve heard
Many blacks have contributed greatly, and Latimer contributed but he certainly wasn’t necessary
Who do you attribute with the cure for polio Jonas Salk or his lab assistant
The reason you don't learn about Lewis Latimer in school is because, in the grand scheme of things, he is a tiny blip on the history radar. Thomas Edison is taught because the light bulb was a life changing invention, regardless of who improved on it.
Edison also has hundreds upon hundred of inventions
Many of which arent even mentioned in schools because they're irrelevant in the grand scheme of history.
That he actually did solely invent only in his old age did he enlist new inventors for his inventions
I mean phonograph is cool
