Please, rebuttal welcome. Real quick:
Forgive the hyperbole but to be clear: Cape Buffalo aren't ACTUAL tanks, Zebras arnt literally retarded (allegedly), and Tigers don't live in Africa (which was a reference from The African Queen, good movie, check it out) Glad you got the joke?
And no, Cape Buffalo have never been domesticated. Maybe it's possible with modern/future technology, infinite money, and nothing better to do but to what end? For anyone without modern technology to do it is laughable. Sure, catching a wild boar in a snare and moving it into a pen seems hard but, not impossible. After a couple pig generations (remember within a couple months new born pigs can breed) it's not hard to imagine a friendly bacon pet. Now, do the same for indians domesticating Buffalo (we really only just sort of figured that out now) and take away horses because they didn't have those yet. What kind of fence can you build to hold one? How to you separate two from the heard of hundreds without the others coming to free it? Oh shit you need to be able to prevent it from attacking you as well. Impossible in the old world but, I guess I'll see if you can supply proof.
I don't expect you to ever get around to your rebuttals though
I love the constant excuses for zebras not being domesticatable. It's true, they are far shittier than donkeys or horses, but they are still capable of pulling things. Whites were able to get them to pull shit as a novelty without much difficulty. The reason they don't though? They aren't as good as other options. The thing is, whites did it briefly, Africans had millennium with Zebras and other animals to selectively breed them them to a more usable stock. They never did it. I don't know that they ever had the notion to do so. And that's the crux of the issue. Africans never had the imagination to get anything better for themselves. They never had the drive and intellect to create anything of merit for the world as a whole. The colonial period was a time of massive induction of ideas and technology, and from Africa we got... nothing? Even the Native Americans had boats, hunting routes, farming techniques, and survival skills that the pioneers were able to learn from and benefit from. No domesticatable animals in North America either if I remember correctly. South America also had flourishing cities, agriculture, social structures, etc. and their only domesticated animal on the continent was the llama.
And as for trading for better animals, they didn't do much with them. Native Americans got horses and that was it for them. Africans couldn't figure out how to have a stable or a ranch for the animals they traded for? They couldn't breed a sustainable generation of horses or cattle from the Arabs? They couldn't make a road or use a cart? There will be a ton of long explanations for why the African was simply unable to do so, but there's a simple explanation. Their average IQ is 70. They aren't smart enough as a group to get it done. Even today, they don't have the structure to build society except where colonial whites came and started it for them. And then when they take over things get very shitty very fast.
Africans, particularly sub-saharan africans are objectively not that smart, have not contributed anything of value to the western world, and were unlikely to develop into anything of significance without the intervention of more intelligent races.
First, review the difference between "tame" and "domesticated" I swear you were built from spare parts. Bears can be tamed, Gorillas can be tamed, hell even batshit liberal women can be tamed. But they cannot be domesticated. Domestication involves multigenerational captive breading (amongst other things And besides the occasional success breaking one, that doesn't mean it bears lineage that will respond that way. Here's a quick one that talks about that here
Why does that matter? Because domestication is about long term breading and use. One Zebra is great, but if it's foals are still crazy and unresponsive then you have a pet that provides little use, especially in the mass numbers necessary to establish a civilization level benefit. They did find success with a "Zonkey" but clearly that had a Donkey that helped in the process.
Also, I'm excited you brought up the Rothschild's bet about one (I'm sure you think thats evidence and part of some New conspiracy) but that's a very well known case and I was hoping you would mention it, everyone does when talking about this subject. Go back and read the article you linked and look at the time, expense and absolute amount of previously acquired equestrian knowledge that made that possible. Again, taming an animal is a different thing than domestication. As we still can't domesticate them today (but we can, still, tame them). I know you're thinking "take enough of them and..." No, again, read the first article, that's not how this works
Your second paragraph must have been written by some kind of retard whose parents were also cousins because it's dumb even by your standards. Africans had canoes, just like Indians. African had cities of comparable size of Indian and South American ones. None of that is even debatable. Africans had farming techniques, they were similar to the native societies you just mentioned. Then your line about uncreative and dumb is so uncreative and dumb I'm starting to think I'm arguing with an 8 year old since there's no way to prove any of that. And since, as we established, Africa has plenty of civilizations. Please go back and review any of the affor mentioned sub-saharan societies we talked about earlier, you'll see examples of all the stuff you said didn't exist.
I'm starting to think maybe you're brain damaged because it's unreal how dumb you sound. Just an aside, I'm showing this to people I work with, even the black ones and they aren't mad at all. They feel like your education system has failed you. Black people, objectively smarter than you, pity you.
Indians did get Horses and it revolutionized their society. Issue was they got them after their civilization collapsed due to an estimated 90% of them dying from disease. I feel like you should know some of this. It's comical how poorly read you are. We've already went over how far behind you are when advanced societies show up at your door.
Those IQ studies you talk about are of MODERN PEOPLE. If you don't understand why a well educated white guy in Virginia has an IQ higher than a Sudanese man who's been fighting war for years then you're pretty fucking embarrassing. Even the IQ difference in the US have less to do with skin color and more to do with zip code.
You can think black folks are dumb, but I want you to step back and realize how absolutely inept this argument made you look. You would think, being so certain of how smart your race is you would spend some time utilizing all that big brain you've got but clearly you don't. The certainty with which your last paragraph was written is awesome, it's like your dumb, and you know your dumb, and it was proven you're dumb but you're happy just being dumb
Your bullshit racism only hurts our forum.
