All bullshite aside, do you actually think that ANYONE believes Wakanda to be a real place?


Unless you are being dishonest (or willfully ignorant), then you and I both know that there are people out there that believe Wakanda to be a real place (in the “country” of Africa no less). Yes, I know that it is sad, but I have ZERO doubt that people that dumb exist.

They need to go read their historical blue prints since a good portion of the continent does have indoor plumbing and still shitting in the grass

I do not know even one person who thinks Wakanda is real, and I know plenty of seriously stupid people.

No, but I have no reason to believe that my circle of acquainances is not reasonably-representative of Texas as a whole.

People are generally as dumb as shite, but I think that they do understand that comic book movies are fiction.

In the 1840s, Dahomey began to face decline with British pressure to abolish the slave trade, which included the British Royal Navy imposing a naval blockade against the kingdom and enforcing anti-slavery patrols near its coast.

I bet they skip over this story line.

In episode 3, a group of Europeans are captured by the Dahomey Woman King. The Europeans are given a choice of death or Ooga Booga. The first group of Europeans choose Ooga Booga, and are raped by the Dahomey Woman Warriors with strap ons. The last European chooses death. To which the Woman King cries "Death by Ooga Booga!".

An absolute classic example of revisionist history. Unequivocally fiction. Does not matter what the real story is as long a narrative is spun that meets the ideals being pushed. The Excuse …well it was the movie makers creative interpretation of the actual event. You mean the movie makers outright lie…ok I got it.

Wonder how the people that made this film feel about Sir Cedric Hardwicke's portrayal of Sethi in The Ten Commandments ?

Is a puzzlement....
