It is irresponsible and unethical to use Greenbergian working hypotheses in linguistics as replacement labels for historical Afrikan populations.

Anytime you listen to someone using Nilo Saharan, Afro Asiatic, Khoisan, Bantu etc. in the absence of reconstruction and or historical comparative evidence know that you listening to someone who is misinformed at best and a conscious con artist at worst.

These classifications are working hypotheses and are not to be taken as established historical linguistic facts until proven so. Most of these labels are simply areas of linguistic diffusion and have absolutely nothing to do with a genetic relationship.
