Mahmoud al-Semary and his lawsuit..


I for one am glad that this joker is bringing this lawsuit against Netflix because it is one that he will almost certainly lose.. First though Cleopatra was indeed Greek and Macedonian this doesn't automatically make her white.. She was of mixed race as many people in that area were back then:

The ancient Egyptians were indeed Black:

There is no one trying to steal modern day Egyptians culture.. The problem is that they have a problem with the Blackness within their lineage.. It is foolish to ignore all of this evidence just so that you can claim that these people were white... Especially when moder day Egyptians are not white themselves.
Apparently, there will be another documentary on Cleopatra starring Gal Gadot who is Caucasian and Jewish.. I suggest that they watch that one.. Maybe their inner desires to be white will find that depiction more palatable, despite how inaccurate it is bound to be..

Hahahaha!

From a reply to that video:

"Worth noting that the article you cite about Greeks being genetically linked to sub-saharans and Ethiopians in particular is a single study (by an immunologist, NOT a geneticist) based on one single genetic marker. It was torn to shreds when peer reviewed by actual geneticists (the statements by Luca Cavalli-Sforza, Neil Risch and Alberto Piazza come to mind). The same guy also made the claim (based on the same faulty methodology) that Japanese are genetically near-identical to Bantus, which should be self-evident on its face how stupid of a statement that is. Single-marker studies are an extremely imprecise and flawed methodology, and produce odd results that cant be replicated with any other testing. All multi-marker tests pretty much universally put Greeks as genetically closest to Italians and Ashkenazi Jews, with Romanians and other Balkan populations being also incredibly close.

And the Haplogroup study you cite is a problem for multiple reasons, but the biggest is that it's not about Greece at all, but about North Macedonia. Not only has North Macedonia undergone several significant population migrations there since antiquity (ones which mostly affect Y-DNA lineages), but most importantly, much of it was never even Hellenized or Greek at all, and it's certainly not a good stand in for Ancient Greek Macedonians. But regardless, the E1b lineage found there that is most common with the ethnic Albanian population there isnt the same subclade that's found in the Horn of Africa, it's one that's pretty much only found in Europe (V13) which branched off from a VERY old, specifically Mediterranean coastal clade (M78). It's not known for certain when V13 entered Europe, but it was either by way of the Neolithic migration of Anatolian farmers, or came with the Indo-European invasion from the steppe. Either way though, it's not a sign of particular genetic closeness to East Africans as we know them, and it certainly didnt come directly from there."

Yeah, I've seen it on youtube so it must be true ... lol. And the Earth is flat (also seen on youtube), right?

reply

Yep I saw scholars, and anthropologists make videos which debunked the bullshit and put them on YouTube.. So yeah I am sure they are true.. Like I said, I can't wait for that idiot to bring this lawsuit.. He is going to get laughed out of court if they pay any attention to history at all.

Did you actually read what i posted??

That video is a failure.

reply

Yeah I read it.. Most of it was bs.. Plus there was more than one video which backed my claims..

reply

Nope, the problem is that your videos that you based your claims on are bullshit.

I can show you 20 videos on youtube that claim that the Earth if flat. But we know better, right?
