I fail to see how that is even a fair comparison. Rome was the center of a vast empire, which drew on the achievements, technologies, and learning of many different peoples and civilizations. Nonetheless, at the same time you had Europeans living in caves while Rome was at it's height. Why don't you compare those two.Based wrote:

I always knew the african savageness bred into you was strong, purify yourself by adhering to the ideals of the civilized world.Perfect_Order wrote:I fail to see how that is even a fair comparison.

Re: Colonization= Better off?
But Based, I am using logic to destroy this false analogy. This is what it means to be Western, to discern through the false and penetrate to the truth.

Re: Colonization= Better off?
Striving to discern truth from falsehood is now an exclusively Western concept?
btw, how are you offended by the picture I posted when you earlier declared Africans savage and uncivilized?
There has never been anything even remotely comparable to Rome in Black Africa in the entire history of our unfortunate continent. Some of Rome's European contemporaries might have been savage in comparison, but Africa has almost always been uniformly backwards.

Nigga you high? Somalia's current state is a direct result of colonials. We would better off if we were never colonized at all.

Based: c'mon son. You know that rome picture ain't actually rome. It's probably from a film, and it's been probably fabricated a bit more to the paint the white cracker more civilized than the rest of us. I don't believe Rome was that good.Based wrote:I understand but honestly:Samatr wrote:Based
Yeah they have a big head start, greediness will be their downfall, the amount of over consumption in the west is ridiculous.
as a continent (Africa) we have all the resources in the world and we have not tapped into it like the west did with theirs, it could be a blessing and a curse of sorts.

Alpha, I was simply pointing out a flaw in Blitz, blitzkrieg attack on Samtr.

Gaalka dil gartiisna sii sxb. I'm not saying this as some sort of weird middle of the night self-hate session, I'm just trying to keep it real.
That's not to say that we didn't have a flourishing civilization prior to colonialism as so many of our compatriots seem to think.

You're hilariouseliteSomali wrote:I think we'll be more united if that cracker never showed up. He came and divided the people, taught them to hate each other based on qabiils, we took it and made it a habit which we still practice today. The biggest tribal wars have taken place after the arrival of those crackers from europe which caused more hate, more distrust, more division amongst us and that's how them niggas responsible for somalia's current state.
All of Somalia's problems were created by Somalis. Lets be honest here. Qabiil was followed by Somalis way before colonialists came. They didn't create it.
Somalia and Somalis are to blame. Not some British guy from Liverpool and his colonial ancestors.
