@tzooh (my "u" key is bsted, and i'm tired of copying and pasting to correct)...

The fact remains that every black area worldwide, be it city, state, or nation, and be it governed by blacks or whites (and generally better off if the latter) is a backward, crime-infested stain. Sorry if I don't b-y the abs-rd explanation of exploitation and prej-dice for every single sit-ation.

@tzooh I never said Africa's plight had nothing to do with outside influence. It certainly had some adverse effects, but it also had unquestionably positive effects, which have continued with the infinite dollars in aid from all around the world...

Set aside the qestion of why Africa was so "exploitable" (here again, the "exploitation" inclded nmeros improvements in life expectancy and qality of life). Set aside too, the fact that other continents, sch as Asia were exploited.

[tzooh]

@PumpingSmashkins And yes Africa was advanced, we were the first to pave our roads, first to make glass, and first to engage in mining. Ghana were making their own weapons such as shotguns, and cannons and thread mills way before the british came. Better improve your knowledge on africa, my friend: you probably think it is a country instead of a continent. And Africa a dark continent: at least we dont rob and kill each other with guns, is the london riots any different than the congo rebellion.

[tzooh]

@PumpingSmashkins Look at Egypt, after their much fought fight for freedom came to pass with the backing of America, Britain, and France, look at what happened: their military started killing their own people, their economy started detoriating and they even havent written a constitution: and what has the western world done to stop this violence. When it came to getting rid of a much feared dictator, they acted quickly in the name of protecting the people, what are they doing now to protect them.

[tzooh]

@PumpingSmashkins many operations in africa if the continent was so terrible, why the western world is trying so much to influence our politics and economy, why would you guys be interested in our continent if yours was just perfect, why dont you just stay there and stop coming to africa. My next door neighbor in Ghana is American, why didnt he stay in America if it was sooooo perfect. Why does the west want Africans to indulge in democracy

[tzooh]

@PumpingSmashkins btw, south africa is ruled by a black person, and if your racist comment did not go unnotice, you are implying that blacks can rule themselves, well guess what a black man from my country was the un secretary general, the world's biggest political position one can hold, that my friend is how your so called western country get by. No country is more in debt than the united states. Ask yourself where the so called first world countries get their oil from, how come they have so

[tzooh]

@PumpingSmashkins lol clean water, hospitals, infrastructure, schools, you got to be fucking kidding me, supplying sudan and somalia with aid does not mean supplying the entire africa with aid, dumbass: your sarcastic writing is the most foolish thing i have ever read, your economy is failing and you are telling me somehow you guys are the providers for africa, i have lived there and you havent, no school in my country is provided by the western, clean water, and energy, we produce our own idiot

[PumpingSmashkins]

@tzooh lmao. yes, the dreaded "exploitation" of the dark continent. Infesting those poor souls with such evils as clean running water, hospitals, infrastructure, schools (a futile endeavor, those, but we tried at least). Africa was so advanced and prosperous before the evil white man came along. South Africa is doing so much better now that it is black run, too.  The ignorance of the "politically correct" is mind-numbing.

@tzooh thats true thanks ;)

[tzooh]

@souasazzz DONT listen to him souasazzz, i bet pumping does not even know that europe and america got their wealth by exploiting africans
