I think the Berlin conference is one of the most sinister and effective events in the history of the world and it set the standard for how white people operate to this day.
Yes, it was about the scramble for africa and how to divide africa peacefully (among Europeans)
but what it really was about, and what Africans have not yet accomplished (ADOS, Continental Africans and Carribean Africans)
it marks the moment that Europeans traded in micro tribalism, for macro tribalism.

and they decided right there, “We are different, from different places, with different cultures. And we may not like each other, but we are not them. And we have to embrace that to conquer them”
This is one of the reasons you’re getting this global response to the Russian/UKRAINE war. Because it effects the macro tribalistic practices of Europeans.
to this day, if you put a Italian, a Russian and Swiss man in a room with a black American a Jamaican and a Nigerian. The Europeans will immediately stop giving a fukk about where they’re from and acknowledge immediately that they are all white, while we, are going to be stuck on our differences.
tribalism amongst Africans is our greatest downfall
