RE: Effects of Fascism and Racism in Africa
And most westerners/europeans would say the people of Africa are to blame for their own problems. Check out the "Scramble for Africa". We know why Africa is the way it is today. Even look at the politics of many African countries. They destroyed people's cultural ways of governing themselves. Africans were not familiar with european model governments and guess what. When the europeans left they sure as hell didn't give the people the blueprint either.
Imposing an abusive government, then withdrawing and leaving a void for the most violent warlords to fill after disarming and economically pillaging the general population. It was a recipe for disaster. The State destroys everything it touches.
Huge disaster. When has colonialism ever been successful?
It's usually quite successful in the short term for enriching the colonialist government and its business cronies. That's why it was historically so popular.
Agreed. Exactly for the colonialists but not the people groups they colonized
