Because it contradicts the racial narrative of white supremacy.

They didn't. There are Egyptian statues in European museums that still have their noses.

The OP is going to say that the Europeans changed the noses of the statues so it's in line with racial science.

Egypt was an influence on Greek culture and many Egyptians were black. The answer to the OP's question is still "no". I'm wondering if this is a troll post; black nationalists usually don't use the word "cis-het".

No, but people have claimed the nose fell off whilst Napoleon was trying to take over Egypt.

Napoleon led an expedition to Egypt in 1798. Very fascinating, that's when Europeans discovered the Rosetta Stone.

How do you even steal culture? My definition of stealing is to take something away. The culture was not taken from the former "owner".
Others criticise that some people enforce others to convert to their culture and you are talking about the opposite.

That must be why so many of them have obviously African features.

I know, but an American did overthrow the government there, and instituted a regime built upon slavery albeit briefly.

Colorful Bund wrote:Clearly ancient Egypt was the welspring of all civilization. To cis-het white male "scholars" more inclined to check their racial status quo than their privilege, this was unacceptable. This is why they denied the fact that Greek philosophers such as Aristotle stole "their" ideas from the black people of Egypt.

In truth white people stole culture from ancient Egypt (black Africans) but then they lost it in the dark ages caused by white people. The Moors who were black Africans took this culture back until the renaissance and white conquest of Iberia, when white people appropriated black culture again and claimed it as theirs in spite of having nothing to do with it in the first place. Then white people stole the land and resources of the native Americans and the labor of Africans to create the prosperity they enjoy today...at others'expense. Wnd then all modern music such as rock are stolen from black artists as if people of color haven't suffered enough.

This is a well established truth and I think that the only reason anyone has to deny it is racism. But some people who disagree might just be ignorant. What do you think nsg?

What do you mean by culture? Also, what do you mean by white people? Your usage of the term white people is actually the only racist thing on this thread. See, white people as a concept is very recent: at the time of the dark ages, Europe was divided, as you know. There are two if not more different big language groups that "white people" have. There is Indo-European and there is Finno-Ugric. Indo-Europeans may have taken things from Egypt, however, Finno-Ugric culture has absolutely nothing to do with black culture. Nothing. If you want to say otherwise, you are going to be making a point out of ignorance.

Now, I would like to ask you: why did you make this thread? I mean you can make whatever thread you wish, but this thread was not made to create intelligent debate, it was created to make whites feel bad about themselves.

Egyptians influenced Hellenistic culture than arose under Alexander the Great, not the original "Hellenic" culture of Greece.

Or, you know, more than one person can have the same idea. For instance not just one person in the world invented fire or the wheel.

Those are so broad as to be meaningless. There are many different kinds of philosophy, medicine, math, and political organization. Different kinds were invented independently in different parts of the world.
