Buzzfeed seems to just hope no one will ever fact check them.

[Dragonlover]

I can’t tell which is worse: whether they lied about things being invented by black people, or that they reduced actual black inventors to their races and never even bothered to mention their names.

[Phentem]

BuzzFeed Literally sees the world as Black and White

[psychodboy]

My grandfather worked at Bell Helicopter and one of the many projects he worked on was the tilting mechanism for the engines of the V-22. Therefore my grandfather not only invented the Osprey but flight itself.

[GrimRuler]

Black person: I improved this

Buzzfeed: No, you invented it

[Kaptain.Obvious]

Buzz Feed’s most important contribution to humanity: promoting racism.

[Tyhros]

These black people who invented or improved these inventions, likely did not focus on themselves being black, they just wanted to do great things... so they did.

[MajorJakov]

Buzzfeed doesn't want people to know the "inventors" names because then people can look them up easier and disprove what they said.

[DoneDragon]

Imagine being so focused on race that you call everyone else *racist

[chuy]

This guy shows more respect to black inventors than buzzfeed.

[emptywindexbottle]

“Black people invented everything” that makes me so mad, why can’t we just appreciate the things black people invented and appreciate the things white people invented, why is it always a competition?

[rozannaedwro]

Sad but many of my Black friends sent me this video trying to educate me to as to whom invented what. I did research some of them and knew it was bogus. You however did a brilliant job in giving credit where credit was due and cover all of them thank you. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[sloop_]

In an effort to be not racist, they became racist.

[nekonomicon]

People : "Let's Appreciate and honor the inventions humans made for humans development and life"
Buzzfeed : "No, it has to be about race"

[Angarsk]

What could be more racist than separating objects by the race of their "inventors"?

[russellgtyler]

Personal rule. I never take seriously anyone with a nose ring. Just the way I roll.

[DarkAssasin]

Black person: Is part of a team that planted trees
Buzzfeed: Black people literally invented the entire Earth

[vkuzmlt]

I like how you talk about the good things the black inventors actually did. Why can't they be proud of that instead of trying to lie?

[thatcrystalpie]

"I'm a talented engineer"

BuzzFeed: "No, *you're black"*

8:40 you can hear her arrogance and sense of superiority as she spouts blatant lies
