:manny:
He was just asking for proof like historical records or something supporting your statement when you said that they flipped it to what it is now because it looks good.

That's it. :manny:

Thats not the original question he asked... and then i answered.. then he came bakk with another weakass rebuttal, which was not even warranted.
U his friend and like defending him?

Maybe you should help your friend search for his answer he needs, cuz i didnt answer it to his liking.
I know they flipped it to please the eye and mind... so what is he trying to prove by quoting me if the answer to his question was posted over 3 times?

Yes, but a whole lot of Arabs and Jews (even Sephardic) are light skinned whites. They are not Europeans. If we're going by that, then there are a lot of Greek and Italian people, along with those in the Balkans, who aren't white.

Some Arabs are white, most aren't. Ignorant people confuse Indians for Arabs all the time, that alone shows they shouldn't be considered white.

I don't know the guy.

Its just that your going at him when he just asked you for proof that they did it too please the eye.

Because so far it looks like it was your guess than actual fact. :manny:

He didnt ask for "proof" he said " How do you figure it? Both orientations are correct."

My point wasnt that it was a FALSE MAP. my point was that it ORIGINALLY WAS UPSIDE DOWN... as it should be, and they FLIPPED it to please the eye.
Go look at the world map upside down. It wasnt originally like that.

PLUS, i told him to search his answer.
then he came bakk for more. he didnt even search it to then debate me

well define colonization...

Are we talking about what the Europeans did.. made the continent it's territory and divided up each area into nations creating the situation we see today... causing then to not control their resources, not be connected w American blacks etc????

Or are we talking about all of it, any greek roman, christian muslim asian whatever group even going to the land and doing any type of war trade slavery??

U have a benign pimple on your crooked dikk.

How did i make shyt up when u said "BOTH ORIENTATIONS ARE CORRECT" ??

:dead:


They flipped the fukking map to please the eye. It looks stupid upside down.

There is no such such thing as a "correct map" and thus neither can it be "turned upside down". It's not because we see the usual world map with having Europe and the US on top that it means it's right, floating in space there is no "up" or "down". It's a man-made convention we've all grown accustomed to, but it's nothing more. Maps are political choices (guess made by who), you can go with them or you can refute them. @Type Username Here just trying to see if you have something to back up your claim.

Yeah? not as much as your grandma who birthed your moron mother
THE NORTH side up map... is only due to preference and convection... IT is not the right way. The South side up isn't correct either.

It's the way greek astonomers wanted it-- most other cultures had it Southside up. It shouldn't matter but JUST like how everything black is bad (black mail, evil, etc) and White is good (pure, lil white lie, etc) ... The north/south map shyt has pushed our minds a certain way about North being more up and positive. @Type Username Here
