That was right where I stopped taking anything she said seriously.

That mocking “Oh, Lawd!” response because a guy was simply arguing what he saw as historical accuracy, rather than it being a “good thing” for him, is a bad look, to say the least.

That sentence basically removed any kind of credibility Gharavi had.

The fucking worst

Even Key Grip #2?

this has to be weak trolling

That is patently not what the issue is at all. Read the article again.

Oh man. You really thought you knew what you were talking about.

“My problem with this comes down to the directors attitude and objective persistence about an unproven question that people have been searching for an answer for since... forever. How the hell can she possibly know?”

“Cleopatra was Greek!” Oh, Lawd! Why would that be a good thing to you, Amir? You’re Egyptian.”

Especially Cleopatra!

As I said the last time this story was posted, we don’t know exactly what color Cleopatra’s skin color was. There are no contemporary paintings, or descriptions of it. We only have a handful of coins, and marble busts rumored to be her. With that said, she’s more than likely not black as her ancestry is Macedonian…

I hate everyone involved in this

Really sad to see so many in “the party of science” reduced to this sort of thing. (Most on the left are perfectly sane, of course)
