#Egypt was

[captainpissofff]

Since everyone's talking about the Netflix new black-washed afrocentric Cleopatra documentary,

Let me talk to you about what's been described as "Most historically accurate media production so far", that even Egyptologists use it as a reference for scholars,

The one and only

I give you ...

*drum roll*

ASSASSIN'S CREED: ORIGINS

Surprisingly, the game's timeline goes back to 49 BC.

Whose rulling era?

Yes, Cleopatra's reign.

Ubisoft, the game production company BRAGS about the AC series saying they proudly cooperate with specialists to create their games as historically accurate as possible, specifically Assassin's Creed Origins, it got to the point where they created a "Discovery mode" that allows you to just roam around the ancient cities of Egypt, no killing nor fighting just discovering!

There's this podcast called History Respawned where they hosted an Egyptologist from Harvard university to analyze the game and test it's historical accuracy, he simply said and I quote " Too damn accurate..!"

You can listen to the whole podcast here

A very interesting podcast that addresses many cases such as white-washing and black-washing of ancient Egypt.

Of course, NOTHING is 100% accurate, still has some flaws but it was accurate enough that even they took care of the cloth used by ancient Egyptians to make clothes!

The dyes, colours such as blue,yellow and red, the tools used in agriculture, in battles, the jewelries wore by NPCs everything was presice and accurate.

The game brilliantly succeeded in recreating the daily life in ancient Egypt during the Ptolemy periods, even the geographical features and places was perfectly designed that you may never see it in another western media production.

#in the end i would like to add that black washing is real and it's as ugly and racist as white washing #Egypt was #is #and will never be #BLACK!!! #it's Egyptian by the words and proofs of historians #by monuments by genetics in our blood we're Egyptians we're no African Americans or subsaharans #cleopatra #Egypt #games #Egyptians #assassin's Creed #origins #black washing #ban netflix #stop netflix history falsifying #all the screen shots are taken by me from the game #wonderful game

An Egyptian vendor in Upper Egypt throws his produce onto aid trucks upon learning that they are headed to Gaza.

Despite the traitorous coordination and normalization efforts of the Arab regimes, the people remain dedicated to Palestine.

This seems to be what I've learned.

I can’t tell you how much I love this artwork from ancient Egypt (the Middle Kingdom). People have been raising cattle and practicing animal husbandry for so long, that there is something almost inherently human about this scene.

Everyone in the field of veterinary medicine or agriculture knows the feeling of staying up late with a laboring animal trying to make sure both mom and baby are okay. Delivering a calf is often physically and emotionally exhausting work that takes enormous patience and learned skill. It requires a unique balance of physical strength and gentleness to do correctly. There is no feeling quite like getting that baby out and everyone is okay. I’m certain ancient people must have felt the same way, and I wonder if the artist knew this feeling firsthand. I wonder if those humans depicted were people the artist knew, if the cow and calf maybe were as well.

GLOBAL STRIKE ON APRIL 15

"The terrorist Israeli occupation, after half a year, is still insisting on entering Rafah, which is the last city that still contains most of the population of the Gaza Strip.

80% of the Gaza Strip is destroyed and suffers from continuous military invasions, the movement of the Israeli army, besieging hospitals, commit massacres, destroy and blow up residential neighborhoods. And besieging the population and starving them.

The terrorist occupation is committing these crimes in front of the world, and is trying to have more time to destroy the hopes of the displaced to return and kill them with hunger and disease, and make the world get used to what is happening in Gaza and reduce media coverage and solidarity with Palestine, in addition to causing more destruction and strengthening the presence of the Israeli terrorists in Gaza in preparation for stealing the land.

Be smarter than them, and do not leave us to be killed and forgotten. *April 15 is a day of global strike*.. No schools, no movement, no work, no electronic payment, no gas stations. Make more noise and disturb the peace of terrorist politicians in America and IsraHell.

In the picture, me after half a year of documenting the genocide and surviving it daily without being sure of surviving the next day, and I will not stop until this genocide ends and I sit in the middle of my city feeling safe while I help my people rebuild Gaza."

Here's what to do:

Don't go to school or work (if you can)

Protest (if you can)

Do not shop anywhere

Do not use your credit card or use any money

Wear green, red, white and black clothes to show solidarity. Wear a badge, a keffiyeh, or anything that signifies your solidarity

Boost posts about Palestine, flood the media

Boycott!

Hey, don't cry. A single thread in a tapestry, though its color brightly shines, can never see its purpose in the pattern of the grand design, ok?
