Comment on porch of geese
Leomas@lemmy.world 1 day agoDid I actually encounter a Hotep in the wild, or is this a well written shitpost? In any case: You not being able to google that is not because of the (existing) white-supremacy, but because it’s just a silly larp. Anyway, if you think this is real and makes you happy, you do you, but no, there is no evidence for a global empire anywhere at any point in time, be it from any continent. If it makes you feel better, there have been huge, rich, powerful empires in Africa and that is pretty much undisputed. I know this was likely just a shitpost, but it does confuse me why people feel the need to spin such tales and seriously believe them.

I never said it was an empire. It was probably just early people really good at building on land so they tried and succeeded building on water, and they happened to be at a daily caloric intake and a generationally coastal diet that made long voyages easier.
Then they just sailed around the world over a few thousand years or ten. Probably on what we would consider boats far far to primitive and small to do it, but nevertheless they did it.
The fact that you needed to build a strawman, the very familiar tones dripping off your words, and the fact that you assumed my race and belittled me for it, speak volumes about your personal isms and beliefs. You are a shining example of how this information, when it appears in the geologic and oral record, is treated and promptly discarded.

When did I assume your race? I called you a hotep, but that was referring to the ideology, you could be as white as toast for all I care. I did not build a strawman, you’re saying a population was different from others because they ate different things and due to this they were able to colonize the world? Oral history gets distorted. What geologic fucking history do you have? If you’re referring to what you believe are the foundations of huge buildings, that wouldn’t be geologic evidence if it was built by humans it was probably transported and the geologic differences would have to be looked at in context. Which I’m sure actual geologists have done. (I’m now assuming you’re not shitposting)
