For example the Nation of Islam which not to be confused with real Islam believes all white people were created by an evil Scientist named Yakub and currently the Nation of Islam controls a cloaked spaceship called The Mothership https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakub If that sounds like Scientology then you shouldnt be surprised Louis Farrakhan is in talks to have his religion merged into Scientology. Also for those who cant comprehend the black belief of WE WUZ KANGZ Ive linked a BBC documentary crew interviewing a black group about the subject. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBdk5hDadYE" data-time=" So if you seen the trailer on YouTube youll notice the downvotes with history buffs and other people pissed off the black washing of Ancient Greece What are your thoughts ? <cite>Will446 posted [p:899856162] in Troy: Netf...

MabusIncarnate 04/18/18 1:26:11 AM #17:	I watched the first 5 episodes and the show is shit. The actor in question is a shit representation of Achilles and how the character in general is represented is so far off. It doesn't matter what his skin color is, that means nothing to me. What matters is that he isn't a badass, fuck everything up fantastic fighter, he's a whiner, a bit of a bitch, and threatens to rape women as an attempt to be an alpha male. They made him more of the crybaby politician type who wants to show how much of a man he is by bulking up in front of women and making threats. It's serious garbage. It's not even worth the time to watch. --- Ten million dollars on a losing campaign Twenty million starving and writhing in pain <cite>MabusIncarnate posted [p:899856697] in Troy: Netf...
