@asinwo_tbc Let's put this differently. Do you have a single piece of evidence that's not some guy saying "I found Brahmi from the 7th century! No, you can't independently verify it. Are you calling me a liar? Just take my word for it."

Sure, maybe a couple of centuries before Ashoka, who to be clear I've never once mentioned because he's functionally irrelevant to the discussion. But how far before Ashokah? Could it be… a century and a half? Maybe two? Coming in just short of Aramaic, and thus compelling Dr. Guota to trot off to Bharatpur to make some shit up?

Anyway did you guys know that the Thai alphabet is a descendant of Egyptian hieroglyphics

@asinwo_tbc I don't know, man. Maybe if I squint really hard… Ah, no. Nothing.

@asinwo_tbc So yes? We're talking about the claim that he discovered identifiable Brahmi inscriptions, to be clear, not coins, which are the focus of the article you sent.

Hey man. I have another thing for you to screenshot like anyone who matters is ever going to care. It must really suck for you guys to have to go to fucking Brahmi to find a script that you can even begin to pretend was invented by PIE religionists, huh? Must hurt that the entire history of Pagandom — all your sacred texts, everything — are all written in a Semitic system, because all of Pagandom failed to invent a little thing like writing system. Makes me sick to even think about how that feels!

You mean my feelings on letting a commitment to a neoreligious system you can't even beg off as having been born into rot your ability comprehend objective reality into complete garbage? Yeah, man. I do think that's disgusting shit. I'm saying that out loud. Go ahead and screenshot me all you want. It's fucking shameful.

@asinwo_tbc Just to be clear, you're referring to the Dr. Vinay Gupta paper, right? The one that's completely fabricated?

@asinwo_tbc I see where we're misunderstanding each other here. You believe some absurd hokum that has no evidentiary basis in reality, and I don't. That's why we're having this disagreement. What a relief!

I'm being polite. It's definitely not. "The juniors can't read this code" has never been a good thing. This really sounds like Fable doing some fucked-up unnecessary showboat shit. (The charitable interpretation is that Victor cajoled it into doing some fucked-up unnecessary showboat shit. Entirely possible.)

Not entirely sure this is a plus for Fable.

@Kombai5 Okay, man. At least the other fools in this thread are trying to make an argument. You got BTFO instantly and have simply taken recourse to saying "no, you," and this renders you beneath my further notice.

@LinusMixson Are you a bot?

You mean to suggest that Brahmi was influenced to look and sound just like Semitic scripts, but is actually descended from IVC? That's an odd claim to make given that no one has the barest clue how to read IVC, isn't it? Not a terribly great deal of evidence for any correspondence there… except for superficial similarities in letterform… the exact same thing you incorrectly said the evidence for Aramaic descent was limited to in a certain post that got deleted immediately after I pointed out that it was wrong…

@LinusMixson It is important to distinguish between a script being influenced by another script and being derived from it.

I have studied the differences between Aramaic and Brahmi. You mean that they have sort of not the exact same letterforms? That one is an abjad and one an abugida? Wow. That's almost as crazy as Greek looking pretty massively different from Phoenician and being an alphabet. Have you studied their similarities? What about their insane implausible coincidence between letterform and phonetic value? I've attached a post concerning this, because perhaps you're simply unfamiliar. Why did you delete the post, above, in which you claimed that the evidence for Aramaic ancestry in Brahmi was confined to vague similarities in letterform? That's a curious intellectual choice. I appreciate the schoolmarmish deflecting lecture on intellectual maturity in the immediate wake of simply deleting a transparently ignorant claim rather than facing up to having made it, though. That's truly very funny.

@LinusMixson Before making such claims, study the differences between the Aramaic and Brahmi scripts. Using labels such as 'Hindutva,' 'far-right,' or 'nationalist' instead of addressing the evidence is intellectually immature.

@Kombai5 No, imbecile. You didn't make an argument so I didn't respond to one. "Tamil is older than Aramaic"? You mean the purported Brahmi inscriptions discovered in Sri Lanka? Those aren't older than Aramaic, first of all, and, more to the point, they aren't Tamil!

@LinusMixson You are just blabbering random things. Are you using AI generated arguments??.

BUCKLE UP! OpenAI is about to release ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ ✨✨ GPT-5.6 ✨✨ ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ which will not be as good as Fable… …but it will talk about 👹👹👹👹👹👹 🦝 GOBLINS 🦝 👹👹👹👹👹👹 a whole lot!

@akosi_baj Isn't it so cool?

The same with Baybayin and all Abugida scripts. Kawi is the direct ancestor of Baybayin and all PH scripts except for Jawi (which is descended from Arabic). Here's the lineage. 🇵🇭 ᜋᜄᜒᜅ᜔ ᜐ ᜉᜈᜓᜎᜆ᜔ ᜀᜌ᜔ ᜃᜉᜆᜒᜇ᜔ ᜈᜆᜒᜈ᜔ ᜀᜅ᜔ ᜁᜈ᜔ᜇᜓᜈᜒᜐᜒᜌ 🇮🇩

@juchkuduk @Lib9860 I can take it when Indians do it; they, at least, have their braindead troglodyte discursive environment to absorb some of the blame. But what are you? Some sort of white pagan? You are a fucking embarrassment to our race. Absolutely revolting, rodentine, subhuman shit.

I'm not an "Abrahamic supremacist," you imbecile. I would be delighted if Brahmi were indigenous; it's profound and awe-inspiring, but a bit tedious, that *every single living script in the world*, with the exception of Chinese, Japanese, and a couple recently-invented outliers, is part of the same family. I have no emotional investment in this one way or the other; I am simply a devotee of the truth. What you're showing here is a small selection from FOUR HUNDRED IVC GLYPHS that are hand-picked to resemble Brahmi glyphs with NO BASIS OTHER THAN VISUAL RESEMBLANCE WHATSOEVER. You are a fucking fool. Do you really think that the only reason someone would disagree with this idiotic theory is ethnoreligious pride? Is that the basal register of your little rat brain? What the fuck is wrong with you? And why are you still breathing my fucking air?

These are cherrypicked out of four hundred IVC symbols. There's no basis for their selection except that they were picked to look sort of like the Brahmi symbols. The Aramaic symbols, on the other hand, were picked on the basis of *known phonetic value*, and the letterform resemblance — not perfect, but definitely present — magically appears. Note the first four Semitic letters (Hebrew and Egyptian provided for further comparison, as well as Latin) and the Brahmi with the corresponding phonetic value: A B H E | L ------------------ 𐡀 𑀅 א 𓃾 | A 𐡁 𑀩 ב 𓉐 | B 𐡂 𑀕 ג 𓌙 | G 𐡃 𑀥 ד 𓇯 | D All are strikingly similar. In fact, if you were asked to choose an outlier here, you'd either say Egyptian (the unquestioned ancestor of Aramaic, Hebrew, and Latin) or Latin itself (an unquestioned descendant of Egyptian). Brahmi is barely more differentiated from Aramaic and Hebrew than they are from one another. This continues for the rest of the alphabet. Again, you can't do this with IVC because *it has no established reading.*

@LinusMixson Nah ,bramhi is similar to ivc see this
