wtf has this thread become??
Not too many things more frustrating than debating with a stupid motherfukker who thinks that he/she is smart. You don't even understand my argument to reduce it to anything. You don't even understand your own incoherent ass argument. In the initial post that I quoted you were speaking of Africa as a whole, as if it were one society. You made no declaration that you were only talking about a specific part of Africa. You're just copping out now that I've pointed out that there were numerous different societies in pre-colonial Africa and they didn't all operate under the same system. While there's evidence to suggest that some African socities were non "patriarchal"(which is why I brought up ancient Kemet/Egypt), there's no evidence to suggest that all of Africa was non "patriarchal". In fact the evidence proves the opposite. We know for a fact that most pre colonial African societies were "patriarchal" in a sense, meaning that they were male doninated. I know exactly what patriarchy means by the way. The reason that I'm putting the word in quotation marks is because there are different degrees of patriarchy. African societies may not have been patriarchal in the same sense that European societies were or patriarchies in the sense of how that term is defined today in our society, but they were male dominated. Seriously, there's so much evidence to disprove what you're saying. It's common sense. Again, do you understand what monotheism is? Do you understand that it goes hand in hand with patriarchy? You're claiming that most if not all of pre colonial Africa was non patriarchal, but where's your proof? You haven't posted 1 single shred of evidence to prove this claim. A man could have as many wives as he could afford to buy in many pre colonial African societies. Women were seen as a man's property in certain circumstances in many pre colonial African societies. You're flat out lying when you say that no men owned women back then. Even if you just want to talk about western Africa, men ruled. We've all heard the "Africans sold Africans" smoke screen that crackers use in an effort to absolve themselves of blame and responsibility for the Atlantic slave trade. Well who did they "buy" the people from? African kings right? Name the African queens who owned and sold people from that time period. You don't know what the fukk you're talking about. You can split hairs over whether pre colonial African societies were "patriarchies" in the exact true sense of the term, but there's no denying that men were dominant in African societies before he Europeans came.Is this what I've reduced your ignorant argument to "B-b-b-but it wasn't all of them"? Obviously we are talking about the African-American experience and they descended from a particular part of Africa. From your mentioning of Egypt its clear you don't even know where that is so I'll also leave that to your research. But the fact of the matter is, THAT region was.not.patriarchal. Get as mad as you want to about it.
You have not said a a gotdamn thing in this post You're just babbling at this point. Again, where's the proof that most if not all of pre colonial Africa was non patriarchal meaning that they were non male dominated societies? You're parroting some shyt that you've/read some feminist say. You haven't even done any real research on your own. Yes, some women had power politically, economically, and spiritually in pre colonial Africa but that doesn't mean that a lot of women weren't being subjugated just for being women back then.IAgain, you have no idea what patriarchy is. I'm not even sure why you jumped into a conversation you clearly don't even know anything about. From where the majority of the slave trade happened/African-American lineage to the definition of patriarchy, you are simply lost. You actually think that the existence of male rulers = a patriarchy. Even after I explained it to you
