My Jimmy The Greek Moment

In Africa there are no seasons. There is only warmth. It is a largely a paradise. People in early times could live off the land, picking fruit and killing game every day of the year. There was no need to worry about tomorrow or six months in the future.

In Europe and Asia winter lasts six months of the year. If food was not grown, gathered and stored, people would die. There was a need to plan ahead.

Europeans, somehow someway, developed an ability to kill off other humans more efficiently than anyone else on the planet. They warred with each other and conquered large portions of the rest of the planet, leveraging their advantage in killing into the centuries long oppression of black and brown people.

Tell me that isn't true.

I guess we learned well from the Europeans....a group of slave owning aristocrats that gave women no rights came to our country and claimed it as theirs either killing or displacing the 7 million Natives that were here...then we even managed to have a war with ourselves....
