    There is no both ways on this. You brought up a stereotype and I'm giving reasons why I believe it's wrong. Judging Africans by a European standard makes no sense. They are two entirely different people, have entirely different histories, live in entirely different environments, have vastly different cultures, and so forth.

    Black people are pretty industrious and creative. They have a long history of doing very well for themselves even during slavery days in America when they weren't even allowed to read and write. Nothing really keeps Black people down except buying into and internalizing anti-black rhetoric. And imagine a scientist or doctor, who has the sentiments you expressed in this thread, wanting to learn more about your internal workings. Nothing but harm will come from it.

    The African standard of living cannot be seen in Detroit. If you want to see examples of African standards in America, you have to look at the towns established by slave descendants or towns where slave descendants combined their wealth and political power (e.g. Rosewood, Tulsa, Atlanta).

    S. Africa is becoming third-world because, like all European civilizations, it is unsustainable. The question now is what non-white country will be invaded next so they can try again.

    Sorry, but Blacks are people too. And they should not be given protected status as perpetual supervictims of slavery. They should be ranked by WORLD standards. So it entirely right to judge them next to Whites, Asians, Hispanics, Abos, Indians, Native Americans---everyone.

    Anyone who supports Affirmative Action is as racist as anyone in the KKK.

    The "World" standards are mostly set by Westerners. None of the groups you listed are the same.

    Blacks given protected status as perpetual super victims of slavery sounds like another misconception worth debunking.

    The Affirmative Action remark is pretty random since I spoke on how it helps whites more than anyone else upthread.

    Jealous racists burned down Rosewood. Tulsa too. Wasn't Tulsa referred to as the Black Wall Street?

    This is a pretty good point. By burning down towns established by slave descendants, evidence that blacks can flourish well on their own is destroyed. Black Wall Street does refer to the then affluent area in Greenwood, Tulsa.

    Do the people from the rape, homicide and HIV capital of the world - sub-Saharan Africa - know Europe is unsustainable when they flood European cities?

    Before I respond to your question, I have to address the stereotypical statement regarding Sub-Saharan Africa being the rape, murder, HIV capital of the world.

    Rape: While two SS African countries have the worst rape rates worldwide, the other 43 SS African countries are beat by Belgium, Sweden, and New Zealand. It is fair to say that the one country is the capital, but not the full SSA.

    Murder: The top 5 murder capitals of the world goes to Central & Southern American countries, not SSA.

    HIV: India has the highest # of people living with AIDS. Also, some Asian and European countries beat out many SS African countries. Further, Mauritania, an SSA country, has some of the lowest instances of people living with HIV/AIDS (it places 93 out of 100) beating out many 1st-world countries.

    * * * * * * *​
    With that out of the way, for your question "Do the people from [debunked stereotype] sub-Saharan Africa - know Europe is unsustainable when they flood European cities?" my answer is "apparently not!"

    SSA has the highest HIV infection rates - which is what matters.

    We're not comparing absolute numbers as you instinctively compared murder and rape rates between various countries for rape and murder.

    I was aware of the homicide rates in Latin America being higher than SSA, but SSA's rates are embarrassing as well.

    Nations have different definitions of rape as well as differences in reporting, etc.

    No, I don't believe for a second forcible rape rates in Belgium, Sweden and New Zealand are as high as SSA.

    Judging by this reading, these are forcible rapes: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/top-5-countries-highest-rates-rape-1434355
    Sweden is #2 right behind 1 SS African country

    The other countries on the list aren't SSA countries meaning 44 SSA countries got beat out by European and Island areas.

    The article merely cited Sweden's overall rape statistics.

    So, no, you are wrong.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_in_Sweden

    As far as who's committing forcible rape and sexual assault in Sweden, most likely non-Swedes are over-represented:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_and_crime#Sweden

    And if you don't like Wikipedia, check the links cited in the paragraphs.

    No one is dumb enough to believe Europe has the same forcible rape rates as SSA.

    I suggest you also read this thread further explaining the complicated picture of Sweden's rape statistics:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/36d3z8/is_sweden_now_the_rape_capital_of_the_world_no/

    If the Swedish say it's rape, then it's rape ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. They expanded the definition to cover those who get taken advantage of while asleep/intoxicated, which makes sense.

    You slander 40+ SSA countries off of one or two SSA countries. It is fair to say that S. Africa is the rape capital of the world (per capita) or the United States (in totals), but it is pretty dishonest to say the full SSA is the rape capital of the world. Anyway, the vast majority of the SSA uses vigilante justice for certain crimes and many of those ethnic groups have very different cultural norms from those groups in S. Africa. This is why for the most part, rape crimes are low to non existent in many SSA countries.

    Violent Crimes: Rape (by Total Numbers)

    Violent Crimes: Rape (Per Capita)

    I hope you check out the rankings in total rapes and per capita. Judging by your remarks, the information will surprise you.

    Some believe that if it weren't for outside races, Africans wouldn't be able to feed themselves. In other words, or in their words, "If it weren't for the Europeans, Africans would be starving to death" or something similar. This type of thinking should be easily countered through common sense. If Africans were able to survive thousands upon thousands (100's of thousands) of years without help, then they really didn't need any outside help to feed themselves.

    Think of the uncontacted tribes in some parts of Asia, the Americas, and Africa. These tribes have been feeding themselves this whole time and need no outside intervention.

    Our immigration policies and how immigrants are directed to assimilate or not, depends on our government. Not businesses.

    One race-based misconception floating around is that blacks contributed little to nothing to the modern world in terms of science and technology. This type of thinking is easily debunked through the patent office:

    Please explain. I see absolutely nothing that counters what I put forth in terms of businesses basically demanding foreign labor because they are unwilling to pay the people already here or anywhere in 1st-world nations in certain industries.

    As far as assimilation goes, it only occurs when it is more economically expedient to do so. We have a "Press 2 for English" for a reason.

    African Americans are in this country because slave labor and owning slaves was legal...legalized by our government. Eventually, owning slaves in the North became illegal because those states dictated it as "illegal" which meant businesses did not have the option of owning slaves. Regardless of how they thought it might benefit their business.

    Many illegal Hispanics are in this country because our government does not keep our borders secure and does not take active measures to deter illegal crossings. This is because the people in government see illegals as a tool for power for a variety of reasons.

    Yes. But only the government controls who we accept to work in our nation and who we don't. Businesses can take advantage due to what our government decides or they can suffer for it. Government is in control.

    Multiculturalism is anti-Americanism. Its creating victims by not assimilating immigrants into our culture so that they can succeed. This makes immigrants vulnerable. Our government is in control of how we assimilate or not assimilate our immigrants.

    I believe this is partially true, partially false. Slaves were still brought to the US even after it became illegal (e.g. History of Cudjoe Lewis). Slavery was legal because of economics. It was not a government demand, but a business demand (many industries involved).

    There are many incentives for illegal Hispanics to cross the border, especially jobs. When the recession hit, many went back home. The government doesn't help with all its gimmes, but the biggest incentives are under-the table jobs or day-laboring for pay.

    I'm not too big on government interference in the marketplace, so even though you may be mostly correct here, I feel like I have to push back somewhat. The way Americans make their purchases creates demands for real cheap labor. It is up to Americans to pay the full cost of quality American goods and services over that of cheaply made goods made overseas or from illegal labor. The government is not in control, the consumers/citizens are.

    Multiculturalism is anti-Americanism. Its creating victims by not assimilating immigrants into our culture so that they can succeed. This makes immigrants vulnerable. Our government is in control of how we assimilate or not assimilate our immigrants.[/QUOTE]
    The government has a very small hand in assimilation. It is up to the citizens in how they interact with immigrants and the policies they push through governments for how to deal with immigrants. Government is the result of citizen participation or apathy.

    Gravity control?

    I couldn't find anything on such an impressive sounding device, but I did look up Arthur Zang's 'invention' of grafting the functions of a heart monitor onto a tablet.

    The gravity control listing is hosted under projects/inventions with the mechanism being part of a larger project. It's good you went ahead and looked up another even with a dismissiveness in response, but feel free to look up more. My goal is to address negative misconceptions and stereotypes based on race and viewer participation helps.

    One of the things that pop up every once in a while is some mantra that black men are raping white women while the reverse barely, if ever, happens.

    Trying to find supporting evidence for this reveals something different. Different like the rallying cry is false. Here are a few numbers, facts, and supporting evidence that counter the claim:

    Here are the latest numbers for rape by offender:
    White: 8946
    Black: 4229

    -fbi.gov

    Please note that the FBI numbers include the expanded legal definition of rape that started being reported by the FBI in 2012. Still, the stats are still lower than they were in 2012 when this category was labelled 'forcible rape'. In other words, when they collected data for forcible rapes, the numbers were higher than they are now under the expanded definition of rape.

    Now for breakdown:
    White: 88% of 8946 is 7872 White women raped and 1074 Black women.

    Black: 88% of 4229 is 3722 Black women raped and 507 White women.

    Now, at this rate, it is a little more than a 2:1 ratio for White offenders compared to Blacks in interracial rape.

    Hopefully the "black-on-white rape" mantra dies upon receiving this information.

    The FBI publishes data on race of victim and perpetrator of sexual assault and rape, showing blacks annually rape and sexually assaulted approximately 10,000 white women annually and whites rape and sexually assaulted less than a dozen black women.

    Correction: The FBI publishes data on race of victim and perpetrator of HOMICIDE crimes.
