Arguably the middle east was once the most advanced civilization in the planet, from 600ad to 1200ad

Imagine wiping your arse with your bare hand and thinking that's peak

I'm sorry but bathroom hygiene is the one area where the West is just inferior. You're acting like the entire non-western world is India.
Washing your ass with soap and water will always be superior to wiping with dry toilet paper and letting the shit crust up until you take your next shower. Pissing while standing up is also a surefire way of splattering urine all over your bathroom.

Aggressively invading everything around them and claiming it's their civilization isn't really the same
kojimbob@reddit
Yeah by that standard the Mongols would've been way more advanced by virtue of controlling the Middle East and China
C_umputer@reddit
So both were random savages invading more culturally developed nations thanks to sheer numbers.
Munerator@reddit
The Mongols weren't at a numerical advantage. In fact it was usually the opposite. They just hit so fast and hard that they looked like a horde plus their victims coped about losing to greater numbers.
C_umputer@reddit
Lol no that's incorrect, their scouting armies alone had 50k soldiers, which is pretty much on par with the largest armies most countries ever had. Guess if you are comparing them to Chinese that might sometimes have been the case.
Munerator@reddit
What? I know wikipedia isn't the most reliable source but it gives a figure of 100k total, men who would be spread across all of Eurasia mind you. No way a rapidly expanding steppe society has scouting forces of 50k men.
Aurora428@reddit
I never compare army size with Russia and China because their armies have been meat grinders since the dawn of their civilizations
Moholbi@reddit
They were the most developed ones in that period of time tho.
Matt_2504@reddit
The mongols were really advanced though. They had the best military technology in the world at the time
ChainOk792@reddit
Might does in fact make right

Mesopotamia is considered to be cradle of civilization. Even if it wasn't, it was one of few points on the Earth where civilization started. So if you want to give them points, better use that information. Arabs were conquerors, and they already came to a place where civilization has thrived for 1000s of years, and they just took their cultures and adapted it to themselves. These barbarians don't really have advanced culture, that's why every time they conquer a civilization they just take their culture.
You could argue that domination of Islam is one of the factors that destroyed that advancement.
Varangus@reddit
The only time the middle east was anything remotely "advanced" was when it was under Roman or Eastern Roman rule.

What does this have to do with the Middle East? The Middle East sucks because the West has explicitly made it so from overthrowing Mossaddegh in '53, laying the foundation for religious right-wing extremism in the region.
Should replace Middle East with America. Letting tens of thousands die every year to 100% preventable healthcare deaths, letting schools being used as shooting ranges, LARPing about spreading freedom or whatever but just making the world worse...
Viltrum failed for a reason in the show. US will fail for a reason, too. A good one. Just like we will/are.
SaintCambria@reddit
The Middle East sucks because 1400 years ago some pedophile decided to start a cult to grow his army.
inthebushes321@reddit
Yeah, Islam sucks. All the Abrahamic religions are horseshit. Religion isn't real. That's the only adult position to take. If you wanna go that route, it's absolutely pathetic and infantile that so many Americans are Christian. Failure of education system on full display. I mean shit, Christians, Muslims and Jews all worship the same God. Just shows how stupid they are when the infight and call Catholics fake Christians and stuff.
I mean we can either meme or actually have a serious discussion. Which is it?
SaintCambria@reddit
Yeah nah, that's horseshit, Islam is demonstrably worse for its adherents and their neighbors. Disagree with Christians and Jews all you'd like, but this whataboutism is so tired.
Mr__Castle_@reddit
If their so advanced, why do they have a symbol that looks like a clitoris?
SnooWoofers186@reddit
What do you expect? A symbol that looks like a dick?
I wonder what is the symbol of human? Is it the signboard toilet’s male symbol?
Enlils-Reincarnation@reddit
Doesn't Christianity obviously have it ? Or The Greek civilization which utilized feminine symbols for their whole myths lol
droogvertical@reddit
The really hard thing to take seriously is that people watch that shit.

The universe is inherently violent and everything marches towards annihilation.
Swimming_Register_32@reddit
Why are we downplaying the importance of the Middle East’s development of theoretical nuclear weapons?
The biggest threat to society today are the schrodinger nukes pioneered by sadam.

I actually hate the fucking show so much for making more retards aware of it, fucking dimwitted retards who need to make sense out of everything meanwhile they ignore the fact that Invincible started out as parody so obviously decisions made in the universe make little to no sense...
Now that Amaslop has Kirklands balls they are trying to do some wishy wash, retconning so there is some semblance of logic, but it's still based on a parody and idk if it's a good idea to act as if the show will be able to make sense of it all...
And then you get these terminally online retards that are too stupid to do a bit of googling and find that out for themselves because... they are retarded npcs.
