@TiberiusBravo87 Right, and thanks for elaborating on that. And while I appreciate your ready knowledge about these tribes down to the name, which most people can’t do, all that it proves is that groups of people often hold animosity towards each other. We see it everywhere, in every organization, in every human race. It still doesn’t prove what the relevance of knowing this in the modern day is. Does it mean that people of African descent, regardless of their nationality and culture, still wave their sticks in the air and hold tribal meetings weekly? Is your point in proving pan-African animosity related to modern African politics? Maybe I took your initial statement out of a greater context but it’s missing a chunk of data to make a full point.

@TiberiusBravo87 Brother, your historical timeframe is all the way wrong. Trans-Atlantic slavery was only 400 YEARS of centuries of existence of an entire race of people that lived for millions of years; that is nowhere near long enough to edit the genealogy of one’s entire brain to be ‘developmentally stunted’(where did that come from? How did slavery cause that?) Second, like I said, every single group of people wanted to accrue wealth and safety with the use of force. Including Africans. Often times they will use a common cause to unite the people, often citing the enemy as inferior for any superstitious reason, whether that be related to their appearance or other part of their culture. Europeans were very superstitious as well, and deemed many other white races as being inferior for a multitude of minor reasons, but the verdict was always the same: they wanted to accrue wealth and their own survival. That’s it! It doesn’t matter what they told themselves or the rest of the tribe, THAT was the main reason for war. There is little evidence that wars were fought for any reason beyond those two goals. Do you have any proof that the African tribes you mentioned fought wars solely over skin tone? You must be joking. That being said, I agree with the points about genetic differences in relation to race, and the ‘SJW-ism’ that uses black people as a poster for furthering their own goals. But have you considered that a shit ton of Western black people don’t agree with the way they’re represented in the media?

@arakouzo Again, not true, because Africans, who have MANY cultures, do not all believe that skin tone has much to do with their life at all, and never did. And how does it ‘tie into the fact’? What’s the correlation between this so-called ‘colorism culture’ and the black-on-black hierarchy that you’re talking about? So far no one seems to be able to answer that one question. How are the two related? Furthermore, the article that was being brought into question refers to not enough dark-skinned people being hired into black movies by white directors. It’s a stupid point and it’s a reach towards a new game of playing racism, but it never said anything about black people acting superior based on their skin tone to other black people.

@arakouzo Again, read my original comment, and stop classifying the entirety of Africa as though it shares one sole culture. Skin colour has not been a significant factor in many African cultures for centuries, so unless you have proof of certain tribes or even one that’s started a war or affected the quality of life because of it, go ahead and throw that out the window. And like I also said in my original comment, groups of people often hate other groups of people for all kinds of shit. It also seems like this group likes to bring up slaves. I hope you know Europeans traded slaves too, right? Naturally, the group selling the slaves believes they’re superior, right, having won a war and laying claims to the spoils? Lastly, has anyone in this sub actually even interacted with a black person? Let me tell you that no black person walks into a Starbucks and notes the colour of others’ skin. Sometimes it can be brought up, just because variation in skin tone for black people is more drastic than it is for white people. Does that clear things up for you?

@TiberiusBravo87 You keep bringing up this Nigerian friend of yours as your primary reference for your race theory. This is the same SJW motive as “Hey guys, I know a black, he told me so!!” We keep coming back to the same beginning and you’ve chosen to avoid the inconsistencies I’ve brought to you. Don’t mean to shame you on here, but what I said should serve as a reminder to take a moment and reflect on your thoughts next time you decide to make a bold statement based on your feelings.

@arakouzo Skin tone is being used as a political and ideological tool in the modern day by many groups with interests not in favour of black people, and some black people like you said are adopting it. Europeans also had many enemies. They also bred with their cousins. This ‘thing I’m doing’ is not to rally an internet stranger’s favour of me, but to point out how ignorant your message is to generalize a group of people and then complain that your rhetoric can be easily picked apart. Furthermore, it seems like you actively engage in this sub discussing black people that you’ve never met or ever understood for a huge portion of your day, which is a reflection of your own low value. Anyways, I don’t know why I spent so much time on here either to be honest. “MuH AfRiCan TriBEs” I guess.

Again: No one gives a fuck about this Nigerian dude and his chickens! You’d rather get your sources from a rando than scientific and historical research. @TiberiusBravo87
