There's no evidence that human beings of the African variety have a special affinity for fried chicken

A lot of people

However, it's an unfair stereotype that African people are addicted to eating fried chicken

U don't have to be a nigger to enjoy fried chicken

>>936050557 (OP)
I can't tan. I fucking love fried chicken and watermelon. Is it the Irish in me?

>>936050557 (OP)
There's plenty of evidence that shit eaters enjoy a higher than average IQ when compared to the general population

>>936050964
It's a fact.

>>936050666
No kidding, Satan. Everyone knows they're addicted to watermelon.

During the glory days of slavery fried chicken was valued for its ability to stay fresh for days without refrigerating

>>936050964
Its true. My IQ increases by SIXX points every time I get a cloggging.

It's statistics, you can pretty much prove anything with statistics

>>936050557 (OP)
They also never had any recorded system of writing till the white man taught them how

I could eat fried chicken if I have no other options, I'm hungry and I just eat bits and pieces.

Generally it's too fatty for me though. It doesn't go down well. Especially KFC, whenever I have that it just leaves me physically ill for a day.

Not American if it makes a difference.

West Africa was a global academic hub long before Europeans showed up there.

Surely Mansa Musa rings a bell, That guy oversaw one of the empires there in the 12th century. There were several that were thriving, the Malians, the Songhai etc. Places like Gao and Timbuktu were economic and scholastic nexuses. In fact they had writing before most the north Europeans did.

By the time of colonial powers invading though it was just a perfect storm:
- Longstanding empires had just crumbled into disrepair and political fragmentation about a century earlier
- The Morroccan invasion into the teetering Songhai empire was just beginning
- Europeans didn't go inland but stayed coastal, and had a maritime advantage
- They leveraged feuds between factions to establish hegemony (e.g. playing on the Songhai empire's succession wars)

It's honestly very similar to parties like the Umayyad Caliphate invading Europe during *its* dark age about a millennium earlier, following the fall of the Roman empire and the sort of centralized authority that could rebuke another centralized authority.

The modern image of illiterate tribals is made up by people who either don't know anything about the place, or people for who it is very important that *you* don't know anything about the place.
Usually it's the former because people tend to be dumb and they're defensive of their power fantasies that call them exceptional for just sitting there and breathing.

And I get there are tribal societies in the bush now. You got yokels living in the Appalachians too though. This would be like if I exclusively showed you hillbillies drinking out of rainbarrels next to a trailer, and told you that's the most advanced society America has to offer.

you tellin me... they was kangs?

Depends on if it's a monarchy or something else. A couple were kings, a couple were emperors.

You have a federal republic, with a president. Tell me, wuz you president?

Honestly when you look back on this it should surprise you that you ever thought, if you put a batch of humans in a place, they're not gonna do what humans always do.

>>936055542
for a supposed academic you sure are a snarky little annoying faggot

>>936055583
Never said I'm an academic.

Also you haven't told me if you wuz prez or if you're one of the people that they're gonna show off somewhere else, to illustrate what a backwater America is.

>>936055542

Those coons sold each other into slavery for some guns and ammo. Wakanda my ass.

>>936055656
what's with your america obsession? nobody cares about impressing you

>>936055303
AYO HOL UP
>smacks lips profusely

>>936055684
Oh yeah. That's where the factional war comes in.

It's not something you can just whack with a generic anticolonial stick either, cause it really cuts into murky political feuds between factions.
Their motives and history varies, but some ethnic groups - moreso in Asia than Africa - would have been exterminated weren't for European interference, hence they really wanted that European alliance.
It's a common trope to guilt trip anything related to European activity at the time but some nations around today would've been genocided 400 years ago without them.
I guess like any situation where you have 3 continents worth of political feuds it gets messy, and it's all filtered through a 15th century cultural lens.

>>936055699
I'm assuming you're American and holding up your own reasoning to you.

>>936055825
whatever you dumb muslim faggot. just assuming and holding it up to you

>>936050666
I never saw webms of any other race, wrecking a KFC because they are out of the sheboons favorite kind of fried chicken.

>>936055889
Not a muslim either.
Also I'm white, let me just get ahead of this one.
