No they weren’t....Louis Farakhan said that Africans built the sphinx and that the nose was shot off by white soliders because it showed the power of the black man.
And if you cant trust Louis, who can you trust?

Oh no, not more old, white guys. I don’t think I can take it.
And besides, I always sensed the Periodic Table was racist; I just didn’t know why. Now I know.

In other words, without Dead White European Men (and some few women, I guess) the world would be not even half as advanced as it is.

Of course, a Russian discovered the periodic table itself, which was one of the most amazing leaps of science ever, considering that he did it LONG before the actual nature of atomic structure itself was even vaguely understood. As a girl I didn't grasp the genius of the Periodic Table until I read a science fiction story about it. It concerned an Earth exploration group that had landed on once-inhabited planet but could make no sense of the language or culture of the long-dead creatures. Then a young woman with the exploration team recognizes the Periodic Table, which becomes a Rosetta Stone for them. The point was that the table was not merely our convenience but a universal truth. I wish I could remember the name or author of the story, but it was many years ago.

Lets be more specific. How many were discovered by women or diversity types?

North Koreans are the Devil. Bobby Boucher’s mamma discovered all of the elements.

I wish I could remember the name or author of the story, but it was many years ago. That story is "Omnilingual" by H. Beam Piper. Excellent story, excellent author.

Why does America only show up on the heavy end of the scale. I think this is an international fat joke.
I am offended and demand reparations.

without Dead White European Men (and some few women, I guess) the world would be not even half as advanced as it is. Marie Curie. Par example.

North Koreans are the Devil. Bobby Bouchers mamma discovered all of the elements.You mean the "Debil".
I know this because my ship played the hell outta that film on my last deployment (a 9-month deployment that ended two weeks ago).
I swear it was on TV every day, followed by The Breakfast Club. I think I know both films line for line by now.

Egypt was conquered by black Nubians who ruled for about 200 years before the Egyptians overthrew them. There were black rulers of Egypt but that was long after the pyramids were built.

Curie’s discoveries should be with tallied with Poland, not France.

They left out “Upsidasium” which was discovered on Mt. Flatten and tested at No Bikini Atoll.

That is because the western world set up universities already at the end of the middle ages. They grew out of monasteries.

Yes, Dmitri Mendeleev (or Mendeleyev). I think when the Soviets took the first photos of the far side of the moon in 1959, one of the prominent features was named in Mendeleev's honor (although he died before the Bolshevik takeover).
Which country discovered Governmentium?
