[QUOTE]Originally posted by Morpheus: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by zarahan: You and Truthcen nailed his bogus "rebuttal." It is typical of how our "biodiversity" friends operate. And I doubt said poster is really "egalitarian" - sounds like yet another false pose-- like the bogus "black militants," reputed "Afrocentrists" and fake "concerned native Egyptians" that they trot out to spin red herrings, strawmen, and disinformation. Good work.[/QUOTE]Well he does aggressively attack racist claims including against Black people. He's on the Egalitarian side of debates with racists it just seems that he takes issue with the idea that the Ancient Egyptians were Black and insists the modern Egyptian population is reflective of the ancient. He rejects the notion that the invasions had a significant impact but even goes as far to say that dark-skinned Upper Egyptians are descended from subject populations. He's an older guy and has been involved in racial topics for awhile. He claims to have read Lefkowitz's book Not out of Africa which has influenced his opinion of Afrocentric claims generally being pseudohistorical. I do believe he is passionate about opposing racism but I am disturbed by how aggressively he opposes the idea of any Black presence in Egypt. Actually I've known him through the internet for years and debates with him and some others are what promoted me to join Egyptsearch and learn from the veterans here. But on this issue his tactics were clearly deceitful. He presented the information as if it was something he was familiar with when in reality he got the quote and link from some Dodona zombie and hadn't even bothered to check the source himself because he had he would see that the link doesn't work.
