Best Africa can hope for is to unite along regional and religious lines. Only AA believe uniting by race is possible. Anyone who's African knows thats like uniting Koreans Japanese and malaysians.
If anyone ever managed to unite Africans by race it would be the most fragile entity in existence
Exactly. Rather regional as religious lines are mostly imported and imply more risk of outside meddling.
As for the bolded totally agree.
Breh.. i respect you as a poster so please read me carefully.
This not about WHY these Africans are doing the stupid things they do - that's another subject for another time. I'm simply pointing out 3 things they're doing that'll prevent them from becoming a superpower.
1. They're p*ssy (they are)
2. Their leaders are too corrupt (they are)
3. They engage in Petty Tribalism (they do)
If I'm wrong about these things let me know.
Petty Tribalism is very limited in scope. In the modern day it looks like separation based on ethnicity for no intelligent reason.
Intelligent Tribalism is what the white man did. He expanded the tribe under the banner of whiteness and feasted on the world.
Glad you do. I'll be honest as I can't say the same as you have a condescending way of speaking about Africans, which I usually only hear from racist White people. No disrespect, but you've been repeating platitudes and generalizations the whole thread.
Anyone can play that game :
- AAs are p*ssy for killing fellow AAs instead of rebelling against their oppressors. Burning a couple cars every now and then won't achieve much.
- AAs don't even have leaders to be corrupt. Took the son of a Kenyan to FINALLY have a Black president. Next best thing was Ben Carson lol.
- While Africans have tribalism, AAs push the absurdity even further by beefing between projects of the same damn city.
See how easy it is to make stupid generalizations that don't mean shyt?
1. They're "p*ssy" because you keep repeating it. Where in Africa have you been to see the everyday struggle these people go through? Putting food on their plate, educating the kids, fighting diseases and whatnot, all of this after being gutted by slavery, colonization etc, and they're STILL there managing to create, build, innovate. And here you are calling a whole continent p*ssy. I guess you've been following the Arab spring (yes, Northern Africa is Africa), the protests in Senegal, Burkina, DRC, CAR, Madagscar, SA? All those people are p*ssy?
2. Leaders are corrupt all over the world (US presidency is actually based on who gets the most money to campaign, yet they have the balls to call other people "corrupt"). What exactly do you think happens to a lot of people who aren't corrupt?
3. "Petty tribalism" is what is called nationalism/regionalism in the West, you keep dodging this point. US is built on "America first" and you say it's Africans pushing tribalism. Don't you understand that one is just a form of the other? AND it's not ALL Africans that engage in tribalism, but it's obvious you will have more tribalism when you put together people who don't share common cultures or whatnot. What happened in Yougoslavia? I repeat myself, but how do you think tribalism developped in the first place in Rwanda?
And the white men did not "expanded the tribe under the banner of whiteness and feasted on the world", they feasted on the world PRECISELY to have more ressources for the inner battles and positioning in Europe. You think Portugal and Spain invaded Latin Ameirca "for the white man"? Lol. They did so to accumulate riches in the intra-euro competition. No one cared about "whiteness" then, that shyt was intellectuallized AFTER the fact in order to "justify" it. That's the problem with Black Americans, y'all think the whole world has always and still only revolves around race. And that's what I've been saying since the beginnning, that Black in the diasporas must be cautious not to themselves see Africa throughout their own bias, which is a Western bias. African intellectuals are already speaking on this, as well as people in the diasporas. Basically, be humble is what they're saying. shyt the whole point of the Berlin conference was to cut up Africa BEFORE the respective Euro armies ended up fighting in Africa too. They did not sit together because they were allies, they sat together precisely because they were competitors. How you explain Fachoda if they were "united under the banner of whiteness"?
