Heroin Bobby with the Grandpa Joe aura
he doesnt either. he parrots conspiracies that have been scientifically proven false
i object to your use of the word “either”. that gives him too much credibility.
Even if this total lie were somehow true, that there was something about Arab culture or Semitic people that magically made them unable to “produce culture” uhhh they’re still people?? Like they deserve exactly as much dignity and respect as any other people.
But it’s also obviously a stupid racist lie.
Something, something …. He must not have learned Arabic numbers in school
Watch them try to ban Arabic numerals and force everyone to use Roman numbers again.
I really REALLY want this to happen. It would be such a perfect example of how incredibly ignorant they are and the complete lack of understanding they have for the world around them.
Like the time a city banned “di-hydrogen monoxide” for like a day until they realized it was just a fancy name for H2O lol

That’s not quite the story…
Viejo, California put a proposal on its agenda to ban plastic foam containers over the chemicals used in making them. In the proposal they listed “dihydrogen monoxide”, among other things, presumably because they likely added it to the list after failing to identify a satire website, and it went viral, mostly in right-wing circles that hate anything that protects the environment.
It never got past the proposal stage, and the “dihydrogen monoxide” part wasn’t even the reason why. They never actually banned water and had to walk that back, a Republican lied to you to make you think that.
I think my high school chemistry teacher told us that as a reason why it’s important to know the periodic table or something, idk what their political motivations were.
But I guess even before AI stories were getting twisted and changed to fit narratives or serve personal purposes. Thanks for the info tho, always good to know more info.
It’s not even a fancy name, it’s very literally the scientific name of it…the shit you learn in high school science classes
Ave, true to Caesar!
I thought his brain was just so addled that he fucked his speech up. He tried to say the Muslim Brotherhood caused all Muslims to stop contributing to society. He’s mentally ill and racist, basically.
Racist for sure. But do not excuse his behavior as ‘mentally Ill’ he knows EXACTLY what he is doing.
I mean Abdul Alhazred wrote the Necronomicon, which I consider to be both science and literature.
Praise be to Yog Sothoth!
Folks there really is no reason to go all the way back to the Islamic Golden Age to disprove this fool. There are many many Arab scientists and writers alive and kicking at this moment right now.
He is recycling the same islamophobic shit that flooded the internet in the two years after 9/11. The arguments are 100% 2001-2003 era.
What kind of numbers will we use if we want to express in writing a number of how many times this asshole has been wrong. Beware the number is probably not gonna be high enough.
The fact the average conservative can see and even hear this and say its not racist shows how silly the average centrist is for trying to meet them in the middle.
Firstly that’s super fucking racist. Secondly, the Islamic golden age famously involved a hell of a lot of science and literature being produced bt Arabs. Thirdly, in recent history there was one famous Arab guy who was so committed to producing literature he was writing books while working an extremely high stress job.
His father would be so goddamn ashamed
Controversial opinion: What RFK jr said here is what every Western person is taught in school. The West has systemically erased any non-European achievement from its literature. Going as far as to rename prominent Muslim scholars such as Ibn Sinna and Ibn Rushd and give them names like Avicenna or Averroes.
This is a way to indoctrinate studente of science by giving them the idea that all of modern science has originated from the West since all they see is Western names.
What RFK jr says here is not a failure of his own education. It is what he has been indoctrinated with by the Western education system.
Controversial opinions are supposed to be opinions, not claims of fact. And what you said isn’t true. RFK’s idiotic opinions don’t represent the country as a whole
The controversial part of my claim is that he does represent the country as a whole. This is what the education system teaches people in the West.
When you look up anything about scientific achievements on the internet it will all be about 1500s to 1700s Europe, completely disregarding the 900s to 1200s Islamic golden age in Iraq, where Europe kick started most of its scientific knowledge from. Famous European scholars such as Fibonacci studied math in Algeria under Arabic teachers. Who got most of their material from the house of knowledge in Baghdad Iraq, the worldwide center of science at the time. Now only known for fake WMDs and oil.
It is an insidious type of censorship where people are selectively informed when seeking information on science. They are only told about Western achievements. Thus they start thinking what RFK said because that is their logical conclusion.
Try looking up when science kicked off or about the biggest scientific achievements and it will talk about either ancient Greece in 500bc or about the 1500s and later unless you specifically start looking for it. Always Europe.

Did you have social studies growing up? I did, and I remember learning a slew of names that I didn’t have any idea how to pronounce.
We learned about discoveries that stemmed from various parts of the globe.
I can’t remember very much of it, because I preffered science and math classes in Junior high. This was in a small town in Texas too, in the 00s.
Just written language, math, and the basic foundation of scientific advancement. Without those things, the brain worm might have prevented us from having to deal with him.
My brother tried telling me about how all great advancements came from Europe and European descendants.
I brought up the Islamic Golden Age of Science and he immediately questioned if it was real…
