For context, the post I’m referring to is a map of Africa with subsaharia Africa in deep green, Sudan in light green and north Africa was white or some other color. The poster was claiming nothing had ever been invented in the green zone. My comment was gonna be this:
Antiseptics before Europeans.
Iron Smelting Not the first to discover it, but recent evidence show it was invented independently.
Some modern Archtecture taking inspiration from Sudano-Sahelian features such as a roof shape favoring natural ventilation. And since I just transitioned to recent inventions, there’s the Cardio Pad, invented in Cameroon, to help diagnose cardiovascular disease.
There are definitely times when requesting a source is healthy. I had posted what I believed to be a true fact (about cities only planting male trees. You can look in my profile and see it). Someone replied that it wasn’t true. I went about looking for the original source from where I read it (admittedly almost 10-15 years ago) and learned that the original source was refuted.
Skepticism is healthy. But we’re at a point where healthy skepticism and sealioning is getting difficult to tell apart.

Tolerance is a social contract that doesn’t extend to assholes. They think it is a cheat code that everyone has to calmly listen to their vile bullshit.
Quick question:
What trees have gender?
Tldr: some do. Most are hermaphrodites.
Ok so which trees can actually be male only?
I do not know any.
