Kwame Nkrumah said, "If we do not unite and combine our military resources for common defence, the individual States, out of a sense of in security, may be drawn into making defence pacts with foreign powers which may endanger the security of us all."

Well, Africans did not unite. And now we are the playthings of foreign powers.

Nkrumah was right.

Malcolm X was right too:

The bolded in your post.

If you ever go read The Federalist Papers and the Anti-Federalist Papers you see those crakkkas talking about just this when arguing for a Federal Government. The threat of a splintered nation with foreign countries like Spain and France coming in and making pacts with individual states.

that would be @Amestafuu (Emeritus)

"Africa is open for business" is what he said when I tried pointing out how the Chinese weren't going to be beneficial to the continent.


Depends on the deal you strike.

Most African leaders aren’t making good deals.

For instance, why did some African leaders taken on collateralized loans to build stadiums or commuter rail when that investment is better suited for freight rail or building large scale power projects like the Grand Inga Dam?

Also, why are African leaders so reliant on debt financing after having experience crises of debt payments in the 1980s-1990s?

The better question is why are Africans still looking for "investment" instead of using their resources and ingenuity and young workforce to build their own freight rail or Grand Inga Dam?

That's a rhetorical question man, because I already know the answer.

Capital poor.

It’s one thing to be capital poor but another thing altogether to rely on foreign expertise to build and continually maintain public infrastructure.

:francis:

But even a dearth of capital or US dollars for international exchange says a lot.

Anyway, down with dollar hegemony - to start…

"Africa is open for business" is what he said when I tried pointing out how the Chinese weren't going to be beneficial to the continent.

they have actually been beneficial like it or not, all the infrastructure building they have done is pushing us forward. you are carrying on your past agenda into this thread. but you have no practical on the ground knowledge of how China has benefited Africa. To a lot of you everything is theoretic. in theory we shouldn't need them. in reality we did. they helped to push us into the future because our own governments were busy being incompetent stealing money. so it's our fault that they are there and some of them can have the time to abuse Africans. Its our fault our labor laws are weak enough to allow such conduct. but these incidents get handled. For you its just more anecdotal evidence to advance your narrative.

you put something in quotations attributed to me yet you didn't quote me saying it. disingenuous bullshyt. conduct yourself like an adult or I will address you like a peon next time. what i actually said is neither the east of west is are our friends. these are just business partners. we traded one for another. whites for china and Africa saw a period of progress. this is the reality. all the side effects of that relationship have to be sorted out going forward. so this idea that they were not going to be beneficial when they have been already makes you look clueless to the topic you want to speak on. your whole angle is Africans are too dumb to know that the Chinese are now our friends and can exploit us. We are aware of that :aicmon:

so keep collecting anecdotal evidence online and thinking you can speak on a whole continent as you usually do. the reality escapes you and is beyond your comprehension. Geopolitics, economics and basic common sense would have you understand why trade partners are essential. Why this trade partner was essential. They are essential to your country as well btw. i don't have time to debate idealism. if every video that drop is gonna spin you into a dizzy and have you saying generalized things about places you never been to then perhaps you are just an impressionable fool, let that be your journey to figure out.

Nah the question is why you have no background education on a topic but want to have opinions. "why is Africa looking for investment?" :what:

we've covered all this in China threads over and fukking over again. are you daft? :what:

and then to show the true depth of your ignorance you say "I already know the answer"

clearly you don't. you just an idealistic babbling dude on the internet posturing. the funny thing is the chinese built your rail lines at the turn of the last century as well... why didn't you ask America that? :skip:

let's just cut to the chase. these threads are c00n porn for people who already don't like Africans. I already said that putting Africa and China in a thread is like baiting flies to shyt. hence you dragging along some old feelings in here and summoning me. y'all dudes just be on some regressive divisive shyt and it's relentless.

Just another day in Africa. Stay taking a boot to the head and losses :russell:


Glad we got spirit over here and slamming folks who even have a thought to try something
just another day of anecdotal shyt being used to generalize a whole continent by c00ns. maybe the next time I see Chinese or Korean people beating up Black Americans in their shop and still having thier business after i can make generalizations about your people too... no? y'all dudes realized ignorance goes both ways. stop the bullshyt and projecting

fools want to be king of nikkaz so bad that's why they always trying to talk down to other Black people on some we the strongest in the bunch shyt. but them white people still right over there.

get off that goddamn pedestal

I guarantee I have more background info than you.

as for the railroads here, the chinese were used solely as cheap labor. the investment money came from rich cacs here in this country.

you can act stupid like you don't know the difference and post all the emojis you want. that lame ass attempt right there shows you're either a disingenuous liar or too gd dumb to even be in the discussion. my money is on the too gd dumb.

i don't have anything against africans. i just don't like nikkas like you. Mr Africa over in Canada. And we both know if you were told you had to permanently move back to Kenya today you would fight to your death to stay right where you are in Canada.

This isnt isolated as Asian store keepers in our communities has long been a problem in varying degrees..this is what led Idi Amin to expel Indians.

And in the US they've shot brehs. So the idea being pushed here that somehow some Africans only experience their bullshyt is plain stupid.
