I’m pretty sure these alphabets cover almost the entire globe

Also descended from Egyptian. Forgot to add them though. They’re the link between Egyptian and Greek. and Egyptian and Aramaic

the root of all modern languages

the whole universe used to speak it

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

P.S: the closest thing to that is Egyptian, but not the language, the Alphabet (the Symbols, not a literal alphabet). Tons of alphabets are descended from Egyptian, including, but not limited to: Greek (and by Proxy Latin, Cyrillic, Georgian, Armenian, Armenian and Armenian (I just noticed this, I’m leaving it in because it’s funny)), Arabic (and by proxy- I won’t list all that), Hebrew, and Aramaic (and by proxy all Indian languages but one, as well as Tibetan, Phags-pa mongol (and by proxy exactly 5 letters of Hangul), Thai, Lao, Sundanese, and Javanese). There’s a lot of dead languages that used scripts derived from Egyptian too but I didn’t mention them because I’d be here all day listing stuff like Sogdian or Norse Runes.

Oh shit my bad, it’s just X Always links to XVideos so I thought it was the same thing.

This X naming scheme is pretty cool, I like the consistency, X, XVideos, XBox, not very creative but very recognizable

What’s Twitter?

All I know is XVideos, that thing Musk owns

Lemmy user encounters humor, 2024, colorized

I’m not familiar with how voting works in America but like…

Can you vote? I mean it thinks you’re not a person, can non-people vote?

As an Egyptian, I’ve had to constantly talk back against multiple people with the usual “all middle eastern countries are iran” bullshit, I thought I’d escaped it when I left reddit, but nope, apparently in Egypt Hijab is forced by law, I just didn’t know Egyptian law and needed a European redditor lemming(?) to give us all a white-savioresque lecture on it.

Many people don’t know this (surprisingly), but reddit is racist as fuck, like one of the most racist platforms I’ve ever been on, it’s really well cloaked racism (usually, r/Europe and r/Worldnews are openly racist) , but it’s everywhere, and OH GOD the white Savior Complex so many redditors have is infuriating.

But hey, at least on lemmy I can correct it, on reddit I’d be swarmed by westerners who think they know more about my country than I, a person living there, do, and will proceed to tell me I’m very wrong.

They push this so far, I’ve had them lecture me, someone FROM GIZA, on the “correct” position of the pyramids.

Yeah, on reddit, if you’re not the mainstream reddit opinion you have to hide in an echo chamber, if you are the mainstream, then most of the platform is one giant echo chamber.

It doesn’t help that they’re all exceptionally rude and confrontational

Which means Egypt is in the clear.

LOOK AT THE EGYPTIAN FENCER FOR FUCK’S SAKE WHY ARE PEOPLE SO FUCKING IGNORANT?

I hate to break it to you, but most of Egypt’s volleyball team plays in shorts and a t-shirt (talking about regular volleyball here)

The “all islamic countries are iran/Saudi arabia” is INCREDIBLY racist and really needs to fucking stop. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE educate yourself

The thing I love about lemmy is instead of neoliberals and weird racists silencing Leftists like reddit, it’s Leftists and Social democrats constantly at each other’s throats.

The latter is much more amusing

I hate that I’m doing this but the history need within me can’t let this one be

It’s the republic not the empire

Sorry I’ll leave now

So do human penises.

That’s why they’re mushroom shaped

I hath found success!
