Ubisoft made as Assassin's Creed game with a black "samurai" known as Yasuke. This is a person who did exist in real life but he was never a samurai and was effectively the Japanese equivalent of a court jester. This professor faked history and used his own Wikipedia edits to support it all and got caught.

The Japanese government ultimately started investigating and found this all out.

Just an incredible amount of hubris and willingness to insert Afrocentrism into everything. This is something that would have gone by without response here because we don't have anyone willing to stand up for our history in places of power anymore but the Japanese elites still have pride in their own history so they exposed this guy.

Sounds like when the government of Egypt sued Netflix over trying to make Cleopatra a subsaharan black woman instead of the Greek woman she was.

Just off the top of my head historical people that were black according to Afrocentrists

  • Japanese (and then reference "black blood" in Japanese writing as proof)
  • The British in the times of the Romans
  • The Egyptians
  • The 12 tribes of Israel
  • Some if not many vikings

And they are dead serious that its all true.

Pretty sure half the evidence was also an AI image of a black samurai.

So in a nutshell, the popular Assassins Creed franchise is releasing a new game set in feudal Japan. It rewrites history by taking a true historical person Yasuke (an African man likely a former Portuguese sailor) living in Japan and makes him a Samurai, something he never was.

Long story short, guy who was pushing it got caught making up his sources after the Japanese government got involved and said "hey stop rewriting our history"

There's something horribly wrong that's behind all this attention to race. It has infected so many places and so many facets of modern life. It's a mystery and it's obnoxious and annoying.

Honestly, it's getting old.



Could we start paying attention to some other metric like character, or trustworthiness, creativeness, or truthfulness, something worthy of noting, anything?

This makes me smile. My kids are gamers and the opposite of woke. They'll help spread this truth in their little community and all the kids will point and laugh.

Leftism is a mental disease for sure.

And just a thought on guys like in the OP's post.

I think street walking prostitutes have higher ethical standards than the people making money off destroying history.

The Japanese are very sensitive about the purity of their race and their culture.

I can see that the Japanese government would act when a Western race baiter begins Africanizing Japanese history.

New game in a hugely popular historical series is coming out with this one set in feudal Japan. Ubisoft decided that the main character would be black and tried to rationalize it by saying there was a black samurai. Japan said "F U".

There's no risk to their careers, quite the opposite in fact. This guy is an anomaly. He messed with a video game franchise and its fans + the Japanese.

Psuedohistory is a money maker these days.

This is how they fix the world. Reality doesn't jive with their worldview, so instead of adjusting their worldview, they just lie about reality

I had a black Uber driver tell me for 30 minutes that native Americans were really black and blacks were the true owners of land in America.

That's funny. I keep getting stuff about Black History on FaceBook. I actually saw one on Yasuke. I started to read it and just had to say, "sorry, no effing way". I just block those sites now.

Twitter is chock full of "foundational black Americans" that essentially rewrite all of American and global history to be black people created and built everything. It's honestly insane.

What is really sad is that a bunch of white liberals think that Africa and its people do not have a culture or history of their own that can be discussed and praised....
