After declaring himself a flat Earth truther, B.o.B switched up from agitating scientists to offending historians and the black community. In an Instagram post, the 28-year-old really sticks his neck out there to question if slave ships ever existed. The post’s video shows a preacher in a fez cap preaching mostly incoherent Hotep babble. But never mind the footage; here’s the caption:
They say slavery lasted 400 yrs… America is only 250 yrs old… You ever seen a slave ship ? They can find a billion year old dinosaur bone but can’t find any slave ships. #AseerTheDukeofTiers #apparently #SlaveryIsNotInMyDNA #WeBeenHere
The hashtag “#SlaveryIsNotInMyDNA” suggests that B.o.B doesn’t think slavery actually existed, which is a sin that even White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders— essentially the spokesperson for Donald Trump’s house of untruths—acknowledged. Also, hey, there is evidence of slave ships, so on a basic level, B.o.B’s argument falls…flat.
