We will see if this works out for them, but they just look to be replacing the US with Russian/Wagner. That group is funded by resource extraction in Africa and already been accused of war crimes.

By that definition..
Russia and China have “colonized” Africa too
Why would trading one colonizer for another be a thing to celebrate?

Make the argument. Describe how Russia and China are neocolonialists
They both use economic and political pressure to control or influence African countries.
Do you want links to examples?
Is this the first time you’ve heard of what China and Russia have been doing in Africa?

I mean we can go back and forth.
You post videos of specific people giving their opinion on Russia and Chinese neocolonists..
I’ll just respond with documented abuses by the neocolonialists
Russia and China have influence on the African nations that allow them in. This is by definition colonialism by your own words.
You can only argue that they are better colonists than the previous ones… but denying they are colonists is going against your own argument and definition.

I didn't define colonialism, I defined neocolonialism and that is not what is happening.
But let's use your logic and argument. By your logic, America is an Israeli colony because Israel influences American culture and politics. Is that what you are arguing?
1. A person spoke about colonialism and you responded with the definition of neocolonialism as though they were interchangeable. I just ran with it.
2. It is according to your definition of neocolonialism
Americans neocolonialists in are funny
They act like the US didn’t participate in the Berlin Conference that divided Africa
(Not to speak of the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Hawaii etc.)
