I'm really distraught, /lit/ Anonymous Mon Sep 4 15:09:59 2017 No.9979601 [Reply] [Original]

I was just on a train reading the Republic and a black man next to me asked me, "Are you an intellectual?" I said, "No, not really." and he replied, "That's why you read Plato."
How am I to respond to that?

How can white boys even hope to complete?
Not only do black men have superior strength and sexual prowess, but they are also the intellectual superior of every other race on the planet. Start with the Greeks, you say? Remember, white boy, the Greeks started with the Africans.

Who taught you that? A white man, am I right?

Supposing it is true (which it isn't), it would just mean that the Greeks were stupid and had no understanding of geography or any of the things that Africans had discovered millenia before them. Either way you lose, I'm afraid.

>millenia before them

Greeks lived before Jesus, so if Africans did anything "millenia" (as in plural, itherwise you would've said " a millenia") before them they would still be monkeys. You just said Africans and monkeys are the same. Check mate'd yourself, mate.
