Got it, so since you are assuming I am some Reddit prick (I genuinely don’t know what this means) you’re just going to lean in to being obdurate? I am presenting facts regarding what has taken place as far back as a few centuries, and as recent as a few decades ago, to drive home a point.
If you have facts to support your stance, or are interested in having a discussion with someone outside of your bubble, just give me a shout, on here, tigerdroppings. Not on Reddit.

You haven’t presented a single fact. You cited a subjective book recommendation and then layered on your own subjective opinion as if that settles the argument. It doesn’t.
And you pretending to be an unbiased moderate while parroting tired standard leftist talking points is pretty amusing to me.

I don’t know if you saw this or not, but he asked if you had facts to support your stance
Do you?
Do you?

Sure. I figured you’d chime in eventually. As I initially commented: Let’s start with the billions in aid poured into Africa that produced little sustainable progress unless it was heavily managed by modern nations.

That has essentially nothing to do with the initial claim
Are you in the right thread?

Correct, I wasn’t replying to the initial claim, nor did I pretend to be. And yes, I’m very much in the right thread. Thanks bud.

Brother all I ever said was that Africa has been raided for its resources for most of modern history, implying that plays a role into these cities being as dangerous as they are today
This was where you put your little giggle emoji
What facts do you have to dispute this?
the argument you are currently putting out makes zero sense in this context
Try again

You and cas4t are both fairly obvious leftists, so it’s hardly shocking that you’ve landed on the exact same stance or hill to die on.
You are attempting to do that thing where you state one broad historical fact, then smuggle in a much larger conclusion and demand everyone treat both as equally proven. They are not. (pathetic and boring)
Yes, Africa historically was exploited. No, that does not automatically prove your modern crime and governance excuse (hence my initial
).

So what percentage of damage should that historical exploitation be accountable for in this context? Just a guess, in your mind.
Zero? That seems impossibly low, right? So what is it?
Posted on 5/1/26 at 9:09 pm to NawlinsTiger9
Yawn, again.
That’s not how burden of proof works. You and cas4t (Leftists) are making the claim that historical exploitation of Africa explains their current dysfunction, so it’s on you to demonstrate the scale of that impact.
So since you two seem to be the experts here: at what point in the future, with no outside intervention, would Africa be considered fully modernized?

I did not cite a book. I cited an event from history. But I’m sure a book, podcast, or literally anything exists that I’d encourage you to absorb however suits you easiest.

Tired standard leftist talking points? You mean only leftists are not okay with the United States funding genocidal, psychopathic rebel leaders?
It may shock you to learn I’m from a combo of Sabine and Vernon parish. Moved to small town Tennessee. Born and raised conservative. I’m not some commie blue haired lefty you’ve envisioned just because I disagree with countries exploiting other countries either for their resources, or in the spirit of “fighting the spread of communism” or in most cases, both.
Now, all that being said, I do have some book recommendations if you’re willing to open your mind.
And I’m patiently waiting on your facts. It’s late so I’ll check back in tomorrow.

How many times you plan on saying “leftists”? Is everything, in your mind, right vs left? I mean what are we talking about here? I’m a man, you’re, presumably, a man. Let’s discuss history, as men. Just still the facts. I don’t care how you vote.
