Colonization= Better off?
Looking back at the current state of Somalia and many African countries, one can't deny that we were perhaps better off colonized.
Re: Colonization= Better off?
Ofcourse Africans like taking orders from white men & they are better organised, Africans don't like listening to each other.

Re: Colonization= Better off?
So you agree, the Europeans as bad as they were provided food and shelter and schools while today we are independent and are led by corrupt leaders who couldn't even manage to help famine victims because they can't agree on anything.
Re: Colonization= Better off?
Am not saying colonisation & what they did was right! but that they are more organised & manage things better than Africans & follow orders.

Re: Colonization= Better off?
I hate to say it but Africans are by far the least smartest race. I said it in the most politically correct way too.
They are not smart because they didn't change their culture. The African culture is laziness and kick back and relax.
There is not ONE developed African country. Not one.

So Africans are not competent enough to lead themselves, they must be led by others or they will turn on themselves?
so we were doomed from the get-go, so it's safe to say were just too stupid to manage a country without the European leadership?

Nigeria which has more natural resources and a shit load of oil, it had a higher GDP than South Korea a few decades ago basically right after their independence they had 10 years of prosperity, today South Koreas GDP is 10x Nigeria's GDP. I don't even want to touch on Somalia the poster boy for African progressiveness.

Re: Colonization= Better off?
This is sad the legacy of colonialism: the oppressed becoming emotionally dependent upon the oppressor. You're mistaking the "truth" for a colonial mentality.
Re: Colonization= Better off?
Europeans defeated every African Nation by tricking them or using other Africans, & then made peace between the same clans they were instigating against each other (when they are the rulers of the land) or clans who were fighting for hundeds of yrs, we all know how much africans respect whites, so yh we might not like Colonisation and how they murdered their way to power but whites know how to rule & developed cities, towns, & the Econmy of the regions they controled.. Africans are lazy, un productive & corrupt.

He was a smart man and saw that some of us needed enlightenment no pun intended.

Oppressor? The age of enlightenment ended in 1960 and that's when Africans started to arm themselves so they could rape and pillage each other and destroy the framework the colonizers left for them.

Re: Colonization= Better off?
It’s fascinating how the effects of colonialism permeate the mentality of modern Africans. Instilling an inferiority complex within the colonized and thus ensuring an emotional dependency was truly a powerful tool, given that you now have a couple of Western Somalis typing away at their laptops, lamenting the fact that their precious white saviors are no longer there to guide *~Mother Africa~*.
It's truly incredible.
Tell me, would you refer to your white colonizer as "sir" or "master" or perhaps "daddy"?
