I didn’t think a massive continent was too narrow of a tag. Is earth ok? Can I say you’re from earth? Where you’re from has no effect on neutrality of education. If you ever had something educational to say, your geographical origin would not disrupt the neutrality of your message. That’s not how education works. Side: Education
Where you’re from has no effect on neutrality of education. Ahahahahahaha! The most shocking thing about that claim is that in your very next post you accused me of "making stuff up". Please, tell us more about how growing up in various places gives someone a "neutral" education about the political and/or cultural policies of those places. You're literally SUCH a lying retard. Side: Ignorance
You bust into other conversations for nothing more than looking stupid. If you are teaching my kid math, I can’t claim the education you are providing lacks neutrality because your math is Lithuanian. Your origin is no more a factor than your character, what matters is the content of the education. Ad Hominem is a fallacy for a reason. You’re not a fucking retard because of where you’re from, but because of what you think. Side: Education
Why do you bust into other conversations for nothing more than looking stupid? Wow. You don't even understand the amusing irony of your projection, do you? I'll make you a deal. When you can write coherent English, then you will have earned the right to accuse me of being stupid. Until then, get psychiatric help you evil Hebrew toolbag. Side: Ignorance
You couldn’t even make it past that sentence huh? I did eventually make it past that clusterfuck, yes. But it took me a while to stop laughing. I was then confronted with a very typical Amarelism in which you tried to redefine education to mean maths and only maths. Side: Ignorance
If you are teaching my kid math But "education" is not confined to math, is it? Math is a very small part of education. You twist and distort information so much that it just literally makes you a disgusting person. I am sickened when I read your posts, buddy. Sickened. Let's talk about history. Tell us more about how African kids get the same version of history that American kids get. You know, the one where you won WW2 on your own. Side: Ignorance

If you say am from earth, then that sounds more united since we are only with earth but not divided among other planets. And that's just what I want everyone to know. But if you say am from Africa, then you have brought division among the earth. And it's politically disruptive to education to say am attracted to Africa because am from Africa as I mean educating the earth as a whole. Then he(outlaw) would think "if he was from Asia, he wouldn't give a fuck about this topic". But none of the people in the video are even African. What's their attraction to Africa?? Side: Ignorance
They’re not from Africa. The accuracy of what they have to say is not affected by where they are from. On the other hand, it is not unreasonable for a person to be more mindful of events and topics that are relevant to geographic areas closer to home. I find certain topics concerning Africa interesting. I find many more topics concerning my location interesting. Side: Education
The accuracy of what they have to say is not affected by where they are from. Indefensible bullshit. How can you sit there and unilaterally deny the existence of any form of nationalist and/or theocratic bias? You're an idiot. Seven in 10 Americans continue to believe that Iraq's Saddam Hussein had a role in the 11 September 2001 attacks. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2003/ Side: Ignorance

You make the sickest arguments here. You are always bending perspectives off target and totally changing the meaning of an entire topic just because you can't get rid of your " I just wanna win ego". You have totally drifted off the point. Who is talking about interesting things in Africa?? Do you know where you are? Are you sure you are on the right debate topic? Side: Ignorance
Outlaw seems to think there’s something off about you presenting things about Africa. I simply pointed out that you’re from Africa, which makes your interest reasonable. You took issue with that. We are talking about this off topic shot because you don’t like that I said you’re from Africa. Want this thread to go away? No problem. Be a little less sensitive and you can avoid such tangents in the future. Side: Education

I simply pointed out that you’re from Africa, which makes your interest reasonable. Erh, so what makes it reasonable that those Italians and English in the video speak about Africa? You took issue with that. I don't have a problem being African. I have a problem with making my education African. Meaning reasonably, only Africans will have interest in discussing that. Meanwhile none of the TEDx speakers is African. So it isn't reasonable? Side: Ignorance
To say that it is reasonable for someone from Africa to be interested in Africa is not the same as saying it is unreasonable for someone outside of Africa to be interested in Africa. Your confusion is a modus ponens inverse error in formal logic. We can talk about that for awhile if you insist, or you can wipe your fuckin tears and move on. Side: Education
