When you have this much of an immediate establishment push to try and 'prove' he was, it's obviously a falsehood.
I get less resistance from saying we should replace all politicians with dogs than them trying to claim the ONLY black guy in Japan at the time somehow became effectively nobility than just an oddity they kept around.
It's simply amazing how, once the left takes a position on something, the marching orders get pushed out, and now we will be absolutely inundated with this stuff. Seriously - everyone is going to be an expert on ancient Japan, and all of these "experts" are going to be absolutely certain that this inconsequential nobody was "A SaMUrAi!"
It's like, every hill - to the left - is a hill to die on. Every. Single. Hill. Once something is their tribe's take on something, it is to be defended religiously.
Just as an aside, I wonder how long it will be before revealing that you are of the opinion that the guy probably wasn't a samurai gets you banned from any large sub on reddit?

Can’t wait until a couple years from now when history books will start saying Yasuke was an important figurehead in feudal Japan…
There needs to be Ai art of "Johnny Somali" as Yasuke.
