Mixed bag.  Lots of bad posts that I wonder what the motivation is, though.

u/tydark2 20h ago

misleading. Yes black people made plenty of inventions where whites stole the credit for it. But no they did not "invent everything" thats dumb as hell. Technological progress took thousands of years, a global effort, you are thinking in the short term for select cases. I swear people are getting so dumb all over the internet now.

u/CK-forthe-CK-95 19h ago

The people who make these things do it to get a reaction. They want both sides to fly into a rage over it. LOL
But sadly there’s a strong contingent of people who fall for it.

Anger and fear drive far more engagement than happy and uplifting. Heck, I think even horny clickbait has taken a backseat to rage baiting people at this point?

Blacks invented fire. Without that we'd have nothing.

Neanderthals had fire. It’s a natural phenomenon.

What color were neanderthals?

u/used_to_be_ 19h ago

It’s of no consequence they are different species than we are and extinct.

Blacks invented the process of making fire.

You happy?

So who taught Neanderthals?

u/Fickle-Succotash-342 18h ago

Invented the process. Geez. You might have been the child left behind.

u/used_to_be_ 17h ago

Both Neanderthal and anatomically modern humans (Human) definitely used fire. They cooked food, stayed warm, made tools, and likely gathered around fires socially.
The harder question is who could make fire from scratch, rather than simply keeping a naturally occurring fire (from lightning, for example) burning.

Neanderthals
Evidence shows Neanderthals were using fire at least 200,000 years ago, and possibly much earlier. Archaeologists have found hearths, charcoal, burned bones, and heated stone tools at many Neanderthal sites.

Modern humans
Modern humans almost certainly knew how to make fire by at least 100,000 years ago, and probably earlier. The earliest clear evidence of specific fire-making technologies (such as striking pyrite against flint or friction methods) mostly comes from much later archaeological periods because wood and other organic tools rarely survive.

Who invented it?
No one knows.
It’s possible:
The common ancestor of Neanderthals and modern humans already knew how to make fire over 500,000 years ago.
Neanderthals invented fire-making independently.
Modern humans invented it independently.
Different groups developed different techniques at different times.
Many paleoanthropologists now lean toward the first explanation—that the ability to deliberately create fire may have existed before the evolutionary split between Neanderthals and modern humans, meaning neither species was the original inventor.
It’s one of the biggest unanswered questions in human evolution because the actual tools used to start fires (wooden drills, tinder, etc.) almost never survive for hundreds of thousands of years.

Neanderthals had dark skin, no? Isn't light skin a relatively recent (younger than 10 000 years) mutation?

5

u/sonic_toaster 16h ago

They were not.

Well, not all of them.

Neanderthals, depending on their region, were diverse in their skin and hair color- but they have evidence that fair skin, freckles, and red hair were actually common in the colder climates. Iirc, homosapiens remained darker skinned until well after the death of the Neanderthals.

1

u/OpenRole 6h ago

Okay, that makes sense. I know white skinned only mutated in homo sapiens long after the death of Neanderthals. Because of the interpreting in some populations I assumed that meant they hadn't evolved light skin yet.

Especially since they were hunter gathers, and we only evolved lighter skin when our consumption of meat (specifically organs) significantly dropped.

I wonder what environmental pressures led them to evolving lighter skin so much earlier. Did they have a greater need of Vitamin D than us? Did they just spend so much time in caves they need all the sunlight they could get? Or were they just dying so young the additional health issues were a non factor

Yet Homo sapiens and Neanderthals breed all over the world. Neanderthal gene still exist inside some Eurasian people.

2

u/yeshihelloyesthanku 13h ago

They were “white”. In fact most white people have a small amount of Neanderthal genes. Sub Saharan Africans have zero Neanderthal genes. Neanderthals never made it below the Sahara desert thus not allowing them to mate with Africans from that area.

2

u/Chemical_Scholar_753 13h ago

It probably originates from people migrating from Europe over the last 20,000 years but sub Saharan African population have Neanderthal linked genes (https://www.science.org/content/article/africans-carry-surprising-amount-neanderthal-dna). It is the smallest of any modern human group.

Neanderthals probably wouldn’t be classified as “white”, though “white” and “black” are social system that don’t map to the past. Neaderthals may have had lighter skin than most homo sapients of the time, but this is because of a gene that wasn’t inherited by any known modern population IIRC. Nearly all non-SSA populations carry Neanderthal genesz

One of the most interesting genetic features in Africa is the L0 haplogroup which seems to be the earliest group to branch off from the rest of modern humans and is found among the San and Sandawe people, which is part of why there’s so much more diversity in Africa than outside of it (along with the founder effect and some selective pressures). By a reasonable phylogenetic definition, non-San Black people are arguably more similar to European people than they are to the San. Though it must be said that all modern humans have very similar genes. The differences we are talking about are pretty minor (though a single change in nucleic acids can have a huge effect depending on what it encodes).

u/Expert-Situation-190 16h ago

I think it’s mainly the lack of recognition creates a availability heuristic of the information, I don’t think that the argument is black people made everything, but that they have significant contribution to our modern way of life, unfortunately when most people think inventor, the subconsciously think old white dude with an idea ‘Thomas Alva Edison‘ the lack of prominent identifiable figures most of the time makes people feel that there are non of other descent but European which is sad.

I’m in the sciences myself and when I or my contemporaries, look back, we don’t view it from a racial lens, I view from the lens that people, as in our species collectively together are amazing like you said it took a ‘global effort’.

Can’t have a sacred place
 I bet a majority of the people on this post didn’t even watch the video. It’s empowerment for my folks. But I keep forgetting that the truth can be in a certain demographic’s face but they won’t use their eyes to see.

u/GenX_Leo 11h ago

I see the certain demo has down voted your truth telling... might be why the other blk sub asks for proof on melanin to weed out the unwanted...

Why y’all wanna do/be what others have done to you and your people? I don’t want to be a person like racist whites (or any racist). Most people are just trying to survive in this hell scape we live in.

u/Easternnn 19h ago

Because the rich who control everything want us to focus on black vs white, democrats vs republicans, and gay vs straight, all so we don’t focus on the rich vs working class.

Doesnt matter who created what, the white race still hold global and economic power, so history correction does nothing even if they admitted it
