Is it wrong for a foreign power to maintain a small, centralized group controlling an indigineous population that does not want them there? Absolutely.


Is it also accurate to say that, based on centuries of specific cultural evolution, the British and Dutch are far better at creating a productive, successful society? Also true.


This is the summary in effectively 2 sentences.

So...the question is, would you rather be "wrong" and have a successful, prosperous, relatively safe and stable country?


Or "right" (as defined by...who knows) and live in a corrupt, violent, shithole with rampant hyperinflation, starvation, rape gangs, etc. they just replaced a white government with a black dictator who made life demonstrably worse for everyone except his tribe.
