Isn't climate change all the rage today? Man made.....nope........and all the other terms used to describe climate change? Yup, it is.
Yet here, in his own post, he cites the Sahara desert as at one time, 30,000 years ago, as being lush, with lakes, etc.
What the heck did the people do 30,000 years ago to turn it into a desert?
Oh, nothing.
But, today, it's all "science says" carbon is causing all of the changes, and man is responsible for carbon.
Well, science also says the sahara desert was once a fertile ground. What happened 30,000 years ago?

"back then it was only Blacks and Whites and trees"
And Latino...Portuguese, and Spanish, and let's not forget the few million Native Americans. But I do understand why you wouldn't want to mention them at all in this thread. No, back then Americans were Blacks and Whites. Latino's were part of Mexico, as was Texas. Portuguese and Spanish were not Americans, nor were the Dutch at that time. We had not yet made the Louisiana Purchase bringing others into the fold.  Boy, do you need a history lesson or two there son. Dude had me dying at the Dutch comment. "Yes, the Dutch were also not part of America because." *shuffles through notes hastily* "The Louisiana purchase." We sure took advantage of them 'Dutch' when we bought louisiana, too bad Obama ruined it with Katrina...

The Dutch were not Americans and had nothing to do with the LP.
I gotta talk slower for those who are all mouth and no education.
Shame.

Shame. You know the US ambassador to France during the LP came from a strong Dutch family right? As the Dutch lost their claims on North America well before the Revolutionary War. The provinces they lost were much of the North East, including New York City. The Dutch have been Americans from the very start. But I take it the alt-right didn't educate you there, did they?

Like I said from the beginning, America was Blacks and Whites.
Whites were British, Blacks were brought as slaves by the British and Portuguese who then left.
The LP was much much later in our history.

You should read A People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn. You could learn a lot about early American demographics and what you're talking about.

You should read a timeline on the beginning until the LP.
Set down your book by Karl Marx and read something else for a change.

Set down your book by Karl Marx and read something else for a change. First of all, America was America before we named it America. Second, 'Americans' encompasses all people who live here which included those others. The 'United States' also had other races that were not White or Black. You have a seriously skewed world view. Most bigots have views like yours.

Good one, 40. That was a real zinger. Just trying to let u know that the Dutch founded a lot of the North East, before Britain, and were part of America. You should google New Nether... Ah forget it. I forgot I was being trolled.

Forget it. 40 is either trolling or is confusing the history of the colonies with the book of Genesis. "In the beginning there was only white. And then they said let there be black and they brought in slaves and called this place America"

And?
Climate change happens all the time. And now man also can impact climate due to our tech.
I don't see what the problem is, or what your problem is with what he posted.

Okay. So, the, what we now call, saharan desert, was, 30,000 years ago, an oasis. I literal green zone. And, it dried up. Way, way, way before human development/oil/industrial age. You said, and I quote: "Climate change happens all the time." I agree. What you're missing is "climate change" happens all the time. It has, and it will. I don't see what your problem is. Flat out fact: For literally thousands, and hundreds of thousands of years, the earth has changed. Period.

You're being deliberately obtuse for no reason right now.
And the crap is annoying. Yes, climate change happens all the time. so what was your point for even bringing it up? Why did you decide to change the discussion people were having and change it to talk about climate?
Just because climate change happens naturally doesn't mean we should ignore the affects of man man climate change. Stop being simple and stubborn for no reason.

Speaking of staying on topic............I wish someone would address the double standard of why it's okay for blacks to label whites while it is off limits for whites to label blacks.
I think both are equally wrong. I don't like the double standard.

While Arch wonders about the Sahara, I am still wondering what happened to the Bering Sea land bridge that prehistoric man crossed to get to North America. Did the ocean levels rise? Dinosaur Farts???

Of course! Early man rode over on the backs of Whales! That's easier to believe than man caused warming.
