Doubt it can take credit for that when it denied the very same self determination it claimed was a core value in the territories it administered.
It was the capital extracted via colonialism and slavery that allowed the first Industrial Revolution to happen. The raw materials came from the colonies and the colonies acted as a consumer market for machine finished goods. A ton of intellectual property were stolen from colonized / occupied peoples, which were then poorly credited once spit out of a machine more efficiently than human hands/artisans (not dissimilar to AI). Sugar refining and cotton dyeing are just two prominent example.
Essentially this part of the world was the global 1% while everyone else toiled.
Tl;dr: Colonial powers were the Altman's, Zukerberg's and Bezos' of their time. Let's not rewrite history in their favor.
Obviously this is a shitposting sub and not the correct place to be pedantic, there are other better places for it. This is a place to escape the fucking shit show of humanity for 4 fucking seconds. If it was in another community, sure, correct away. This isn’t the place to push an agenda. Let us have one fucking place to unclench our ass cheeks for a second. Jesus fucking Christ
The industrial revolution was the transition from the late-renaissance to the early-modern [early-modern to mid-modern] era.
It wasn't the end of the Middle Ages. That came with the invention of the printing press and the neoclassical revival of greco-roman styles of art/architecture/literature/philosophy.
The argument is even weaker if we go to before the Industrial Revolution. The Renaissance and scientific revolution happened on the shoulders of intellectual property borrowed/taken from global civilizational giants and on the backs of forced / coerced labor in colonial occupied territories. The luxury of having intellectuals in coffee shops pondering how society should be structured could have only happened by exploited labor in the colonies propping up their livelihoods and arguably through contact with pre-civilizational (indigeneous) societies in the Americas.
Two civilizational giants that come to mind are China and India. Chinese scholars, as you know, invented paper without which the printing press is not possible in the way that we conceive it today. India invented the numerical notation system that allows us to communicate large values and datasets in an efficient manner.
If not for the work of Brahmagupta, al-Khwarizmi and (most importantly for Europe) Fibonacci this notation system would have never been accepted as the number system we use today was considered to be sacrilege and mystical in Europe for centuries.
For paper, as with numerical notation, the practice was brought to Europe with advancement by Islamic civilizations. Cai Lun, Zuo Bo and Fan Ye were crucial in the development of paper which spread globally as we perceive it today.
The colonial narrative, for hundreds of years was that this progress happened in isolation and that was used to justify racism and genocide. I'm glad that in 2026 we are able to unravel such narratives at the seams.
I wasn't commenting on the relative strength/weakness of the other commenter's argument (because they were clearly shitposting and not asserting a thesis proposal); I was merely pointing out that they were talking about the end of the Middle Ages, which was centuries before the industrial revolution, so you bringing that up was kind of irrelevant.

I don't think you understand the difference between the "Middle Ages," "Renaissance," and "Early Modern" eras...
::: spoiler slight correction:
I even misspoke to your advantage because the industrial revolution actually came after the Early Modern era, on the cusp of the Mid-Modern (and later the Late-Modern before finally Post-modern which we've been in since like the '50s...)
So the industrial revolution is actually further removed from the Renaissance and Middle Ages than I previously indicated.

Now, back to the topic at hand:
Chinese scholars, as you know, invented paper without which the printing press is not possible in the way that we conceive it today.
Okay? Paper had been in widespread use since late antiquity. It's not what ended the Middle Ages; that was the printing press, which, as you know, was invented by Johannes Gutenberg, a German.
India invented the numerical notation system that allows us to communicate large values and datasets in an efficient manner.
[...]
For paper, as with numerical notation, the practice was brought to Europe with advancement by Islamic civilizations.
Nobody here is denying any of that, but it's still not what ended the Middle Ages.
The colonial narrative, for hundreds of years was that this progress happened in isolation and that was used to justify racism and genocide.
The user you originally replied to literally included "inventing racism" in their roast of whiteness, so I'm not sure why you think this is a counterpoint to anything that's been said...
Eurocentric history has erased major Asian milestones including Tang Dynasty woodblock printing, Bi Sheng's ceramic movable type, and Korean metal movable type. Framing Gutenberg's press as a uniquely European development completely ignores those innovations.
It's a shitpost sub. Agreed. But Eurocentric historical bias / propaganda needs to be called out if we're actually going to have an honest grasp of the world and the many civilizations that have contributed to its progress.
You're looking at the conversation with tunnel vision in the context of a shitpost sub, and then lamenting that we haven't had a comprehensive discussion of all the stages of progress that led up to the point of Gutenberg's press?
Don't show up to a baseball field and then lament that nobody's playing soccer...
They really should provide acceptable opinions, maybe as a web service. That would have the additional benefit of us plebs being able using the indices to communicate.
Just started dating one, she tells me she doesn't like onion. Like what? You eat onion in so much shit without realizing it! How do you not like onion‽
Well, it does suck. I remember when I was in high school and I found some cookbook with recipes from different countries. I tried cooking some of them and was amazed at how intense the taste was. Only later I realized that those recipes were pretty normal, they just tasted amazing compared with my mother's cooking. It's not that my mother's cooking was very bland but Polish cuisine is pretty boring. It's mostly salty and sour, not much variation. And some people never venture out beyond what they grew up with.
Speaking as someone with texture issues and a very sensitive pallet, it fucking sucks ass. Lived in India for 4 years, couldn't eat fucking anything even though I tried to force myself every day. I wish I could enjoy Asian food the way everyone else does :( At least I had butter chicken 😭
You basically can, albeit not in pill form. There's a whole category of complete meal replacement options, mostly in the form of shakes. The best known is Soylent by Rosa Labs, but there are dozens of others targeting every nutritional profile around. Most are a fraction of the cost of even the most basic foods.
Strangely, most of those people will still not even try these.
I remember reading somewhere that you need to use your teeth and chew food for health reasons (tooth decay otherwise?). So it's not a great replacement, even if you hate taste
Yall have some wrong kind of onion. Where I am, raw onion is clean and crunchy like fresh cabbage. Do yall buy onion only after it has been lying around in warm air for a year?
What really has awful texture is boiled cabbage or onion.
Like there’s white, yellow, and red onions. On top of that, lightly cooked yellow onions are far different from heavily carmalized ones (crunchy and oniony vs soft and sweet)
I have a love hate relationship with it. The extra flavor onion can add is god tier. The texture is awful. So I cook with it but leave minimal pieces left in the dish.
I am kind of the same way with garlic. I can certainly enjoy foods that have garlic as one of the ingredients, but if it's the main flavor, I tend to not like it. Like, if I'm choosing from the hummus varieties available to me, I have no problem with the plain hummus that obviously has garlic in it, but I don't like the "roasted garlic" variety that has extra garlic.
I have a hypothesis but am not smart enough to verify. But I think Onion affects some people like cilantro. Where a portion of people have a reaction to it and others do not. But mostly that they are responding to onion's intended natural defense of vapor and oil.
I have an alternative hypothesis: At least some people who say they don't like onion are basing that opinion entirely on raw onion and refuse to consider and/or haven't noticed cooked onion.
Go to restaurant, get served a house salad, bite into the purple thing, OH GOD WHAT IS THAT?
Yeah, I can't eat raw onion or celery bc it squeaks when bitten like a live animal or something. I definitely use onion and celery powders when cooking tho 😂
I didn't like onions in my childhood. I grew fond of them when approaching adulthood, particularly when I moved out and started properly cooking for myself and buying my own fast food. Now a sandwich without onion doesn't taste right.
So I think it's rather a matter of a particular configuration of tastebuds. Just like I grew out of liking overly sweet foods.
My husband doesn't eat onion, pepper, mushroom and any other "weird" vegetable. Try cooking with these restrictions. If I have to use one of these, he'll eat it, but he won't like it, so I feel like it's not fair to serve to him constantly, only once in a while.
If him a big boy who has sex, he can eat a like a big boy. Else, crack open a can of spagetty-o's and make yourself a portabella burger with onions and pepper.
You could try pawning your husband off on my ex-wife. She has all of the same "restrictions", but also bell peppers and garlic. Oh and no fish of any sort, except for herring, which she'll eat tons of whenever pregnant (which I think would be most of the time if she could)
I kinda hate onion. If I don't taste it it's fine but any dish that I've tried both with and without I heavily prefer without. Fried onions are the exception for me.
When you're actually working out a lot, you need carbs ... especially starchy, long-lasting, slow-absorbing carbs like rice.
And not just to have energy to burn during your workout, either. Rebuilding muscle requires protein to supply the building blocks, yes, but it also requires energy to assemble those building blocks together. Carbs are the healthiest, most efficient way to supply that energy.
A diet tuned for a rigorous workout regimen needs both protein and carbs.
Edit: and before anybody takes this the wrong way. No, your 30 minutes per week 'jogging' on a treadmill does not count as a 'rigorous workout regimen', and three donuts washed down by an XL caramel latte is way too much carbs, and not the best kind of carbs. This is only for people working out intensely, as in athletic training. It's also with the assumption that you're mainly working for muscle gain, not weight loss.
I ran my last marathon on keto and it was fantastic. Five stars, would recommend to anyone. There was just no slowing down and I didn't even notice the wall around the 20 mile mark. Where glycogen is finally burned out.
I didn't find it sustainable as a lifestyle though because I eat in other peoples homes a lot. And it's just rude to not eat what they put in front of you. Eating out was just strange as well since I would just eat the protein and leave the sides. Or ask to substitute whatever it was with salad.
It's slop. AI food pictures tend to crop and blur on the edges, as seen here. Additionally, that electric top has 6 fucking loops, which is insane. Also, weird rice bumps on the chicken. Also, the tilt and angle aspects look off.
Same, mine had stomach issues so I got good at making this.... it's sooo difficult /s. But after she would recover my mom would treat her "grand puppy" with some flavored chicken and rice..... guess who's cooking the furball liked better lol. But it did help transition her back to regular dog food by mixing it it with progressively more dog food until the good stuff was gone.
When my kid was about four, he didn't know a lot of words and he called mayonnaise spicy. He meant flavorful, but I still haven't let him forget it lol
I know a swiftie that would sous vide chicken breast then cube them. She'd carry one around in a ziplock baggie so she could meet her daily protein goals. Only salt.
Years ago I met someone on a “no white foods” diet. I think it was somw kind of carb cutting measure, so no pasta, rice or potatoes. Only ever met one person who ever mentioned it.
Been enjoying it, I didn't know about him till look like my mama so I got his whole backlog to go through. He's doing a show near me next month I'm planning on going to.
By calling out the OP and refusing to participate you are setting yourself above people who... checks notes believe they have better food taste than the ~250 million people who enjoy Taylor Swift's music 🙄
The act or practice of conspicuously displaying one's awareness of and attentiveness to political issues, matters of social and racial justice, etc., especially instead of taking effective action
How is it punching down to make fun of someone for eating bland food?
Many people who eat like this are closed minded to trying foods from other cultures because they use flavors and spices that add richness to the food that they perceive as “unsafe”. This often extrapolates out to a weird form of xenophobia.
It’s not punching down to make fun of xenophobes….
Rice salad is a thing. Add vinegar & oil (not too sharp), sweet corn, then
A) ananas, banana, cherry, for sweet-savoury
B) bell pepper, chickpeas, maybe other vegetables, for a summer dinner
The energy was surreal, even back to the last seats. The set list and the production did an extremely great job in putting you into a fully new vibe every era change, it felt like you’ve been to multiple concerts. The music was also great – and believe it or not – Taylor’s vocals gave you a chill. She’s an amazing storyteller and lyricist and I was surprised by her skills as a performer and singer, even if you might disagree with it. But I’ve heard her live.
I hate pop music generally but I have to agree she puts on a great concert has a great voice and some of her songs are fun to listen to esp. with a crowd
I paid 250€ for two tickets but I also don’t live in a country that allows ticket scalping. You can sell tickets only at the price you bought them for.
Probably AI but I would rather have someone go through the trouble of making a pot of rice and either boiling or microwaving 4 whole chicken breasts just for a meme than for that person to bring more slop into the world.
As a midlife mom most of our daughters are still the Taylor fans and most of us aren’t into her much but ok - it was a joke about how people dunk on girls/women for having interests and how it looks stupid

Just started dating one, she tells me she doesn't like onion. Like what? You eat onion in so much shit without realizing it! How do you not like onion‽
I don't like onions either. The taste is ok sometimes, but not very nice. And the texture is awful.
Practically every cuisine around the world uses onion.
Some people don't like taste.
Must suck hating every cuisine on the planet
Well, it does suck. I remember when I was in high school and I found some cookbook with recipes from different countries. I tried cooking some of them and was amazed at how intense the taste was. Only later I realized that those recipes were pretty normal, they just tasted amazing compared with my mother's cooking. It's not that my mother's cooking was very bland but Polish cuisine is pretty boring. It's mostly salty and sour, not much variation. And some people never venture out beyond what they grew up with.

I just replace it all with shallots. They're way better, no nasty slimy texture. Fuck cooked onions, nastiest shit ever, texture-wise
Yall have some wrong kind of onion. Where I am, raw onion is clean and crunchy like fresh cabbage. Do yall buy onion only after it has been lying around in warm air for a year?
What really has awful texture is boiled cabbage or onion.
Is it possible you’re cooking the onion wrong?
And?
Out of curiosity, is it any onions?
Like there’s white, yellow, and red onions. On top of that, lightly cooked yellow onions are far different from heavily carmalized ones (crunchy and oniony vs soft and sweet)
Any of them bastards
Except leek. But I don't know for sure whether it counts as an onion
What about spring onion/green onion?
Don't forget pickled red onions. Fuck I gotta bring a jar of those to snack on to the movie tonight
Mm pickled pearl onions tho
I used to know this place that did pickled garlic cloves. I miss them.
Raw onions have an awsome texture come on.
I have a love hate relationship with it. The extra flavor onion can add is god tier. The texture is awful. So I cook with it but leave minimal pieces left in the dish.
That's interesting. I'm huge on texture and I love onions for theirs. Tomatoes on the other hand...
Incidentally, I also love the texture of tomatoes 🤔 are you my evil twin by any chance?
I'm both your evil triplet, I don't like the texture of either.
Read this as "toilet". It still works. Maybe better.
Dude you just made me want to make French onion soup
Peak onion-based dish right there. The broth gets all the oniony flavor but then you don't need too many onions in it...
Maybe you and I make it different mine is like 75% onion (the rest is bread and cheese)
I prefer for there not to be too much, but soaking the onions does lessen my reaction to the texture of raw onion so either way it's a good soup
I am kind of the same way with garlic. I can certainly enjoy foods that have garlic as one of the ingredients, but if it's the main flavor, I tend to not like it. Like, if I'm choosing from the hummus varieties available to me, I have no problem with the plain hummus that obviously has garlic in it, but I don't like the "roasted garlic" variety that has extra garlic.
I love garlic in all forms but I have to agree - garlic as a seasoning is very different to garlic as a flavour.
I have a hypothesis but am not smart enough to verify. But I think Onion affects some people like cilantro. Where a portion of people have a reaction to it and others do not. But mostly that they are responding to onion's intended natural defense of vapor and oil.
I have an alternative hypothesis: At least some people who say they don't like onion are basing that opinion entirely on raw onion and refuse to consider and/or haven't noticed cooked onion.
Go to restaurant, get served a house salad, bite into the purple thing, OH GOD WHAT IS THAT?
Yeah, I can't eat raw onion or celery bc it squeaks when bitten like a live animal or something. I definitely use onion and celery powders when cooking tho 😂
Alliums (which includes onions) are not uncommon food allergy so there's something in your theory
I didn't like onions in my childhood. I grew fond of them when approaching adulthood, particularly when I moved out and started properly cooking for myself and buying my own fast food. Now a sandwich without onion doesn't taste right.
So I think it's rather a matter of a particular configuration of tastebuds. Just like I grew out of liking overly sweet foods.
Maybe it makes her fart.
Why are we listing more reasons to like onion?
My husband doesn't eat onion, pepper, mushroom and any other "weird" vegetable. Try cooking with these restrictions. If I have to use one of these, he'll eat it, but he won't like it, so I feel like it's not fair to serve to him constantly, only once in a while.
Those are like the 3 things I use the most! God, I feel for you!
If him a big boy who has sex, he can eat a like a big boy. Else, crack open a can of spagetty-o's and make yourself a portabella burger with onions and pepper.
You could try pawning your husband off on my ex-wife. She has all of the same "restrictions", but also bell peppers and garlic. Oh and no fish of any sort, except for herring, which she'll eat tons of whenever pregnant (which I think would be most of the time if she could)
Seafood is disgusting though. Whales shit in that sea.
My wife loves taylor swift and thinks pepper is too spicey
I also dont like union like the caremelized shit it sucks but if its cooked into a dish i can enjoy it maybe sm like this?
I kinda hate onion. If I don't taste it it's fine but any dish that I've tried both with and without I heavily prefer without. Fried onions are the exception for me.
My mom hated onions and could tell if there was even a tiny amount in something. I didn't like them much as a kid either
My mom's the same way, except she can only taste the onion when being told it's in the dish...even when there is none
Side of mayo? Or is that too spicy?
If they're feeling adventurous
That's what salt is for
And here I thought that's white pepper.
This is the joke I came for.

Like I am racist - but I don't practice it.
non-practicing, as in a white person who doesn't season their food.

Hopefully. If it wasn't, some person wasted two chickens' life.
I would rather believe this is AI than real.

This looks so bland... where is the mayonnaise to spice it up?
Too spicey
I need something to cut down the heat of the boiled chicken
Mayo isn't spicy! Spicy mayo is spicy.
When my kid was about four, he didn't know a lot of words and he called mayonnaise spicy. He meant flavorful, but I still haven't let him forget it lol
I know a swiftie that would sous vide chicken breast then cube them. She'd carry one around in a ziplock baggie so she could meet her daily protein goals. Only salt.
That’s terrifying
As a Swiftie, I can confirm this is 100% accurate.
Are Taylor Swift fans gym rats?
chicken so white it invented credit scores
chicken so white it posts to its FB group whenever it sees black pepper

Have a friend that's into fitness (it's his profession basically). He buys a 10 pack of chicken breasts and just cooks a breast for every meal.
Wtf is this
White on white.
This reminded me of a Ghoosebumps story that ends with a kid eating nothing but purely white foods.
Years ago I met someone on a “no white foods” diet. I think it was somw kind of carb cutting measure, so no pasta, rice or potatoes. Only ever met one person who ever mentioned it.
You underestimate my potato power.

Been enjoying it, I didn't know about him till look like my mama so I got his whole backlog to go through. He's doing a show near me next month I'm planning on going to.
Hell yeah, hope he's good live. Have fun 🤘
This feels like punching down.
Let people like what they like.
How is what I said virtue signaling?
By calling out the OP and refusing to participate you are setting yourself above people who... checks notes believe they have better food taste than the ~250 million people who enjoy Taylor Swift's music 🙄
Seems about right

I will (not) judge you for preferring this dish.
How is it punching down to make fun of someone for eating bland food?
Many people who eat like this are closed minded to trying foods from other cultures because they use flavors and spices that add richness to the food that they perceive as “unsafe”. This often extrapolates out to a weird form of xenophobia.
It’s not punching down to make fun of xenophobes….
Nah its supporting a billionaire.
Everything is punching down. And live by your own advice.
I like bashing paint by numbers pop music, let me enjoy what I enjoy
Rice with copious amounts of mayo?
We have potato salad, egg salad, chicken salad and probably some other salad, but no rice salad? 🤔
Big Pudding got there first.
Rice salad is a thing. Add vinegar & oil (not too sharp), sweet corn, then
A) ananas, banana, cherry, for sweet-savoury
B) bell pepper, chickpeas, maybe other vegetables, for a summer dinner
[Crying in French, full mental breakdown]
Still like wiping your ass with silk :)
I'm ootl, someone explain for me
She makes bland music for basic bitches.
Ah ok, nothing too complicated then I guess. Although, I must admit, I do have Taylor Swift in my music genre rotations
Catty incel energy.
Joke's on you. They'll outlive us all
I was at the Eras Tour and the concert was the best experience I’ve ever had, even better than Rammstein.
Why do you feel it was the best experience?
The energy was surreal, even back to the last seats. The set list and the production did an extremely great job in putting you into a fully new vibe every era change, it felt like you’ve been to multiple concerts. The music was also great – and believe it or not – Taylor’s vocals gave you a chill. She’s an amazing storyteller and lyricist and I was surprised by her skills as a performer and singer, even if you might disagree with it. But I’ve heard her live.
I hate pop music generally but I have to agree she puts on a great concert has a great voice and some of her songs are fun to listen to esp. with a crowd
Dont say that
It is what it is mate
Better than the pyrotechnics and till linderman's showmanship? You're mad mate.
Don’t get me wrong, the Rammstein concert was surreal. But Taylor Swift topped that.
Fark'n hell, might have to get my arse to a tay tay concert
Where did you get $10K for concert tickets?
I paid 250€ for two tickets but I also don’t live in a country that allows ticket scalping. You can sell tickets only at the price you bought them for.
Sounds civilized. Obviously not the USA.
That's cool. Not too bad of a price actually.
Probably at the concert ticket store, like everyone else.
They give away money at the concert ticket store?
Yes of course. They give it away to the ticket store so the ticket store will give you tickets.
Where's that video I saw of dropping chicken breast in a jar of plain water and doing some sous vide dishwasher cooking.
I'm out of the loop.
Swifties are Mike Pence white? Are they Mike Pence xenophobic?
I hope that's ai because ew
Probably AI but I would rather have someone go through the trouble of making a pot of rice and either boiling or microwaving 4 whole chicken breasts just for a meme than for that person to bring more slop into the world.
that's what my dog eats, easy on her stomach. She doesn't care much for TS tho
Is this like rice with Greek yogurt on top or WTF mate?
I haven't heard a single Taylor Swift song, so I have no idea what this is. Ice cream and rice?
I think this is unseasoned boiled chicken breast
Looks like Bryan Johnson
HAHA TEEN GURLS SUCK!! AMIRITE??????!!!!!
It isn't the teen girls. It is the mid life crisis moms who see her as a proxy for the life they didn't get.
I mean, people can also be casually misogynistic about the interests of middle aged women ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I mean, people can also be casually prejudice bout just about anything.
As a midlife mom most of our daughters are still the Taylor fans and most of us aren’t into her much but ok - it was a joke about how people dunk on girls/women for having interests and how it looks stupid
As though people only dunk on girls/women...
Enjoy the equity and have a laugh
