Egyptians aren't africans. We're the real builders of the civilization,no one else.The afrocentric is just a lie.They're liars. Egypt is our land not the africans.
Uh. Well, look. Egypt is in Africa. Egyptians are Africans by definition. They're just Sub-Saharan African. They're not "black" Africans. The weird Pan African Kwanza Krazies nonsense is western bullshit, yes. And yes, Africa isn't a "Black" Continent. It's African. It's kinda big and populated by lots of people over different times. That doesn't change that Egyptians are African.
Also... other people built civilizations. Like China and Japan. Egypt isn't even the location of the first known civilizations.
I remember talking to an African immigrant who told me that some black Americans make up so many fantasies about Africa. Like you said it’s a large continent with many different cultures
It's not just that. Even sub-saharan Africa is worse.
Some Stormfag might tell you that Nigeria is an ethno-state of black people. American blacks have the same logical failure: they don't actually know anything about Africa. See, Nigeria is a multi-ethnic country. It has somewhere around 30 or so ethnic groups, and just as many languages. These parts of central Africa are so isolated and so cut off from one another by terrain that they develop distinct cultures between villages.
For American blacks, they don't get that Africa doesn't want them, and doesn't associate with them, because they aren't African anymore. They're just dark Americans. They might not even particularly like Americans.
Imagine some ghetto trash from the hood going to West Africa and being told by a Christian African that he's a criminal foreigner spreading moral degeneracy and crime across his country. That's pretty much what already happens, but a lot of the Afro-centrists want to completely paper over that problem so that American whites keep giving them free money.
I have a Nigerian coworker that I'm honestly kind of afraid to have lunch with because of the way he talks about American black people.
He starts off on one of his "march them at gunpoint into the sea" rants and I just know it's going to be my shocked face with his voice dubbed over they show on the evening news if someone at the next table over hears it.

Despite what some white ethnonats here say, the Nigerians that make it to the US are generally ones who can afford to get here and are higher IQ and harder working. If they can afford to get here, that means they're on the upper end of the bell curve - they went through the wringer Either born into riches (rare) or they fucking fought their way to get an education and to get a degree to get the fuck out of Nigeria. That dude sees the degeneracy of American black people and understands how it is clearly their own behavior that is kneecapping their ability to succeed.
For every 1 American black person that makes it out there's hundreds of 'em that have the crabs in a bucket mentality.
The Nigerian sees how much opportunity the US gives him - a lot of the socjus American blacks don't.
I hung out with some Jamaicans in college. My friend group use to play a game called "Afrikaaner or Jamaican", where we would quote one or the other group, and other people had to guess where the group came from.
True. I was pretty ignorant about Africa and after meeting a guy from Kenya who explained about the many cultures I did a bit of a deeper dive. I do find it odd that a young black person will hold a grudge about slavery with America but doesn’t hold a grudge against the African kingdoms that practiced it. But a lot of that isn’t widely known.
See, Nigeria is a multi-ethnic country. It has somewhere around 30 or so ethnic groups, and just as many languages
This is really just a problem of "my group is diverse and full of detailed differences, their group is just a conglomerate." They see Africa and think "all black, so all one group" with no further differentiation. Whereas here they have deep opinions on Light Skinned vs Dark Skinned Niggas, West vs East Coast, shit fucking what street you were born in.
Which isn't even something they do more or less than any of us. People say the South, when they could mean anyone from fucking Virginia to Florida to Texas. Wherein my corner of Deep South Louisiana will have hard opinions on people from maybe 50 miles North not being associated with them (and will commit a hate crime if you say the word Shreveport).
The name for this is Fundamental Attribution Error as applied to a group, for anyone whose wondering.
In fairness they said "the civilization", not just "civilization". Which combined with the other quote in the article
One Twitter user said Afrocentrists "want to steal and attribute Egypt's civilization to Africans and tell modern Egyptians that we are occupying Egypt from them. We must all participate in the campaign to cancel Kevin's concert."
Implies they're just talking about ancient Egyptian civilization rather than trying to claim the mantle of all civilization.
In a way I can kinda agree with their first part though as then you could consider canadians "americans" as they're technically a part of north america. The fact they don't want to be associated with africa harkens back to the whole quebec/canada debate, where oftentimes you have one part of a continent that is so shit that you don't want to be put in the same group as them.
In the same vein African is often used as a stand in for black, regardless of veracity. The two even collided in African American as a stand in for black United Statesian.
Impressively it seems even random people on the street in Egypt speaking English as a second/third language know better than to try to use Africanoid to draw a distinction.
That's because African = Black is an intentional Leftist manipulation to insert Pan Africanism into the lexicon. "American" is just a shortening of "United States of America", given that the original revolutionaries had no idea how expansive the revolution could be.

Next they're going to tell me Elon Musk isn't the most successful African American businessman in history.
Si. But we're going to keep hitting them where it hurts.
Boers are African.
They have more right to be in South Africa than the Zulu.
Keep the Leftists behind the Zambezi

One one side, this is a legit danger.
On the other side, you know who to hang out with on every DIE lecture.

I'd pay money to watch some news show try to pass of a white dudes face with a Nigerian accent talking about how bad african Americans are

"Practiced it"
Literally: the ones who captured and sold them.

Shreveport is ass though much like all of Louisiana. Mfers there have hate bones for everyone in the surrounding states
Egyptians are Africans in the same way that Brazilians are American.
And?

A fair critique.

The problem with "american" is that we use it as a stand in for "United Statesian".
I'd use Americanoid, but I'm not allowed.
