Topic: What are some inventions that white people actually invented?
Anonymous A started this discussion 1 year ago#123,384
White people have made a culture and history of claiming inventions or cultural norms when they had no part in their creation. Musical genres being the most prominent example. Every form of musical genre seems as if it went through that 'devil music' phase and most musical genre was created by blacks.
However, what are some inventions that white people actually can claim?
I think airplanes are one of those inventions because despite there being several disputes over who had the first flight. All of them are white. So, it's safe to say that this was one invention that white people actually did invent.
What other inventions did white people actually create?

This is a really dumb question, because white people invented almost everything. Not just airplanes, but also trains, cars, buses, trucks, submarines, blimps, balloons and trams. You're on a white computer using the white internet speaking a white language.

What a stupid thing to post. You do realize there were different genres of music long before blues and rock and roll, don't you? Do you seriously believe people living in mud-huts without written language were composing symphonys and operas before whitey showed up to steal the credit?

But if you do these things, you will have a nice society. It would be so nice, in fact, that it would be considered a terrible thing to exclude other races from it.

Do the qualifications for whiteness adjust for the time period Of the invention, or to modern day? Benjamin Franklin didn't consider Germans to be white, and presumably others held the same standards of whiteness, but I also believe that standard has shifted as whiteness has evolved to include more and more shades of folk.

"Capitalism, in its modern form, can be traced to the emergence of agrarian capitalism and mercantilism in the early Renaissance, in city-states like Florence"

And they are indeed nice societies, but it would also be a human rights violation not to come let them live in whiteness countries.

Right, you would need to look at how white those people were considered at the time, because to do otherwise you'll end up with white people having invented everything.
