@ItsMeFlashE Again, if you can’t cite your source it means it’s not in the book.
Which is why bro literally cited his source chapter and verse and you were unable.
English
@galen_merek @RobertJSteven @wickdchiq Africans created markets, & trade, and currency...they also created capitalism. Why is that so hard for you to digest? Think about it
English
@ItsMeFlashE @RobertJSteven @wickdchiq Markets existed way before capitalism.
Trade existed way before capitalism.
Currency existed way before capitalism.
They continued existing under capitalism, but they cannot be the defining charactersistics of the system, unless capitalism is a synonym of human existence.
English
No it didn’t. Before the Industrial Revolution and Adam Smith was the feudal system. The Portuguese enslaved Angolans in 1575 and Christopher Columbus was 1492. He enslaved the Arawaks

@NobleQAli Capitalism came before slavery brother.
English
@mynameisyonnas The entire book is the source. You can say youre too lazy to read it & let that be that. But if you want to get to some semblance of truth, you will read the book. Not a page, not an excerpt, the entire book.
Your freedom is at stake.
English
@ItsMeFlashE Right. And when asked to cite your source chapter and verse you balked.
So, no you didn’t actually provide any evidence, only mentioned a book you couldn’t cite properly.
English
@galen_merek @RobertJSteven @wickdchiq Lol. It can mean whatever you want it to mean. It still doesnt change my original statement. Africans created capitalism.
English
@ItsMeFlashE @RobertJSteven @wickdchiq Because there are books more complex than the dictionary that define it differently.
Because many words have different meanings in different contexts.
Because usually people who are not morons value clarity.
Because diferent dictionaries have different definitions.
English
@galen_merek @RobertJSteven @wickdchiq Why do i have to define capitalism when the dictionary defines capitalism? Think about it
English
English
@mynameisyonnas The book he and I discussed is all the contradictory evidence I would need to provide....guess I already have that base covered.
English
@ItsMeFlashE I think if you have contradictory evidence you should provide it.

I wish you were being facetious, but you probably dead serious 😂
Q. Anthony Ali@NobleQAli
“What was everybody before capitalism?”
English
@JamaicanJihadi For example, a tree can exist without the idea of trees bc humans do not create trees. A car cannot exist without the idea of cars bc humans create cars.
English
@JamaicanJihadi Did I say a thing couldn't EXIST before the idea of it, or did I say a thing couldn't be CREATED before the idea of it? Bc if my memory serves me correct, I stated "the CREATION of a thing cannot precede the idea of it"
English
@RobertJSteven @wickdchiq So, to circle back to my original point that started this whole entire discussion...Africans created capitalism.
English
@ItsMeFlashE @wickdchiq If we’re talking about elements of capitalism as ideas, not of capitalism as a dominant social order, then its origin is lost, as is the origin of slavery. But it seems pretty clear that by the fourth millennium BCE, there was considerably more slavery than there was capitalism.
English
@mynameisyonnas I think he sent me that picture bc he thinks that's the truth lol
English
@ItsMeFlashE I think he sent you a picture because it doesn’t seem like you read books 🤷🏿
English
@galen_merek @JamaicanJihadi The creation of a thing cannot precede the idea of it. It never has. It never will.
English
@ItsMeFlashE @JamaicanJihadi It always does. That's like, the most basic philosophical question you could possibly ask.
Unless you think einstein was a dumbass and entirely wrong about everything he researched.
English
Did serfdom and slavery not precede capitalism? What are you disagreeing with?
El Gordo@ItsMeFlashE
Asked one of them self proclaimed socialists, "what was everybody before capitalism?" nigga sent me this 😂😂😂 white supremacy got them whipped. This is really what they believe. Amazing
English
@galen_merek @RadDadRedemtn @saignin @NobleQAli So, according to you, when people talk about capitalism they are not talking about capitalism as it is defined by the dictionary, but some arbitrary idea they have of capitalism? Got it...
English
@ItsMeFlashE @RadDadRedemtn @saignin @NobleQAli When people talk about capitalism, they are not talking about what you think capitalism is.
When people talk about capitalism, they are talking about a system that exists today, and was built from the 1600s onwards. Through slavery and exploitation.
English
I didn’t send you anything, I responded to your tweet that showed up on my TL.
Transatlantic slavery (for sugar production and trade) was the main funding source for the development of what became Europe’s industrial economies and then capitalism. This isn’t really disputable.

@BlackZoro95 @panafrikanology I did not. I never said a thing about King Mali, you did...
English
@ItsMeFlashE @panafrikanology You just said that King Mali (a malian) was engaged in capitalism. Are you dumb? 😂
English
Owned 1/3 of the world's salt, which was traded/sold for profits? Sounds...like...capita...you know what, nevermind. Bless up
Mike Jones@BlackZoro95
@ItsMeFlashE @NobleQAli Okay I understand, ur fighting an inferiority complex and u think by attributing the most exploitive socioeconomic policy to Africans it somehow makes our history look better lol no it doesn't. King Mali was producing a 1/3 of the worlds gold and salt without capitalism
English
@galen_merek @Zetetsu21 @GatewayProjectC @chigowk If "feudal societies" is where you draw reference for the origin of civilization, that would be part of the problem.
English
@ItsMeFlashE @Zetetsu21 @GatewayProjectC @chigowk In order to understand how feudal societies work, i would suggest reading books that were based on the scientific historical consensus.
You know, like they do in grade school.
English
You're definitely one of the dummies who thinks capitalism is trade and commerce which is why you're saying this stupid shit
El Gordo@ItsMeFlashE
What was everybody before capitalism? To be so smart, yall be so dumb lol
English
@RadDadRedemtn @saignin @NobleQAli When did I say markets and capitalism are the same? I never said that. I said, you trying to convince me that the people who created society as we know it did not create the idea of capitalism, bc they didnt call it capitalism, is white supremacy.
English
@ItsMeFlashE @saignin @NobleQAli Markets and Capitalism are not the same thing and neither requires the other to exist. Christ you're fucking stupid. Like please read a book.
English
@galen_merek @Zetetsu21 @GatewayProjectC @chigowk You have never lived in the woods, so I question your reference points when discussing matters of early humanity
