Wikipedia Entry on the History of the Chair Becomes Culture War Battleground

Leftist editors try to hide fact that Sub-Saharan Africa didn’t have them before introduction by Europeans.

A simple Wikipedia entry about the history of the chair reveals how the site’s far-left editors desperately try to reframe the past in real time.

The Wikipedia page describing the history of the chair initially read, “Chairs are known from Ancient Egypt and have been widespread in the Western world from the Greeks and Romans onwards.”

“They were in common use in China from the twelfth century, and were used by the Aztecs. In Sub-Saharan Africa, chairs were not in use before introduction by Europeans.”

That final sentence, believe it or not, is currently the subject of a culture war struggle.

One editor removed it entirely using the justification, “This seems unnesesary and frankly pretty racist.”

In other words, basic historical fact can now be amended if some demented shitlib gets offended by it.

The page is now going back and forth with people re-adding the true history and then having it removed again by leftist moderators.

Apparently, progressives are desperately to maintain some Wakanda-like idealized version of Sub-Saharan Africa where it was more advanced than western civilization.

The current Wikipedia entry maintains the original history, although for how long remains to be seen.

Billions of people around the world still think Wikipedia is an impartial, balanced encyclopedia, when in fact it’s subject to extremist control.

If this is happening to a page about the history of the chair, imagine how many countless other examples of it there are on Wikipedia.

As we previously highlighted, Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger blasted the site for its slide into “leftist propaganda,” accusing it of long since abandoning impartiality and simply becoming an amplifier for mainstream news narratives.

“Wikipedia made a real effort at neutrality for, I would say, its first five years or so,” said Sanger, adding, “And then … it began a long, slow slide into what I would call leftist propaganda.”

Wikipedia is run by around 125,000 volunteer editors, the vast majority of whom are leftists, with a further 1,000 administrators who enjoy special privileges to block others who go against the grain.

  1. One editor removed it entirely using the justification, “This seems unnecessary and frankly pretty racist.”

    Using that “reasoning” all the entries referring to specific cultures can be considered racist. Mentioning who did what and when can be so labeled. The ideal Leftist article would be just a few words: “Chairs exist and have always existed.”
    If they want to get wordy, it could be expanded into:
    “In keeping with the well established doctrine of ‘all cultures are equal’* it would be wrong-think to assign the chair’s creation to any one culture, Chairs exist and have always existed. No one knows for certain how they came to be but all approved and relevant authorities on the subject believe It had something to do with lightning striking a tree stump somewhere in the world. Chairs today are merely modern adaptations of that first chair. It’s much like how toilets came to be by lighting striking a lump of primordial porcelain.**”
    *Except the thieving and degenerate whites’
    **There is an alternate theory involving meteors.

  2. Sub-Saharan Africans never invented the chair. they never invented animal husbandry outside of food animals. they never figured out basic leather stitching, bleaching, and even today they cannot understand basic hygiene or germ theory.
    It’s not any more racist than saying no one on Earth likes Vegemite but Australians.

    1. Damn whitey steal’ everything the noble negro invented ten thousand years before whites even existed.

      Check out Mister Metokur’s videos on Black History Month on Bitchute for the TRUE story.

      (I think it’s called Black Months Matter. It’s hilarious.)

    2. We Wuz Kangs was the first Mister Metokur video on the subject. Both videos are great. Check them out on Bitchute for a laugh.

  3. The mentally retarded, sexually insane, racist bigots of the left want us
    all to believe that the whole world was ruled by the mighty, fantastic, wonderful,
    intelligent, cultural NEGROES until Whitey came along and stole it! 🤡
