Yup. It's crazy because when this was first happening around 2008, you had Africans and brehs talking about "Africa just wants mutual cooperation with Africa". Some people even got called scary azzz nikkkas and "fearmongers" for pointing out how China was taking advantage of Africans. Hell around 2018 people on thecoli were saying this as well. You had African posters like @Emeritus (i think that's how you spell it) calling people c00ns if they criticized African governments over the unfair deals with the Chinese. It's a sad state of affairs altogether. Yet another century where Africa will get lapped by others. To make it worse, South East Asia and South America are "up next" meanwhile Africa will mostly still be on its bullshyt.
To put it into perspective, a lot of African countries had higher GDP than China in 1980. Same with Singapore. They eventually lapped us and we getting left behind. The same thing will happen for South America and South East Asia because African leaders are short sighted and foolish.
I think for the countries that have decent institutions, such as Botswana, it doesn’t matter who’s in charge or how shytty the leaders are, things will continue to proceed as they should.
It’s only for the countries with weak democracies that need better leaders. Problem is there are always more bad leaders than good leaders. This is why America has a constitution that delimits what the government can do. It’s damage control.
I think the better African countries should radically open up their immigration policies to grow their economies and populations even faster. That would also light a fire under the ass of the shyttier countries to get their act together or lose their people. Competition is always good for humans
