    How Africa is being exploited by banking élites. How US Democrats are on the wrong side.

    So because the op addresses the issue with Africa, when we talk about Russia in this thread, i am approaching the discussion from an African perspective. For many of us Russia and China are the lesser of two evils (the other being the west) because of the specific situation we are in at the...

    How Africa is being exploited by banking élites. How US Democrats are on the wrong side.

    The resolutions mention a whole lot of valid reasons, many ironic ones actually, such as interference in international affairs and violation of human rights which the us supports or does, international terrorism which is subjective and expulsion of minorities. But considering that they dont...

    How Africa is being exploited by banking élites. How US Democrats are on the wrong side.

    Yeah, so that speech from Cyril was very big in the african community and potentially internationally. Because usually African leaders are meek and always in "their place". The fact that he made such a bold speech to a european leader was a sign that europe is losing control over africa and...

    How Africa is being exploited by banking élites. How US Democrats are on the wrong side.

    Speaking of the west not treating Africans as equals, see the vid below. Even our African leaders feel that when it comes to serious situations, the west treats us as if our lives dont matter. And the president of South Africa told this directly to Macron. A pattern that I have seen with the...

    How Africa is being exploited by banking élites. How US Democrats are on the wrong side.

    Its not that all westerners are bad, but that Africans need to run Africa themselves. As Steve Biko says, Africans suffer from a self esteem issue, and need to achieve success on their own, otherwise they just become infantilised and westerners become the parents. There is also the issue of...

    How Africa is being exploited by banking élites. How US Democrats are on the wrong side.

    Regarding the global socialist government you propose, how susceptible do you think it could be to corruption? What would prevent it from getting out of control? I know there are many different versions of socialism which is why i ask. I would think that the problem this type of government would...

    How Africa is being exploited by banking élites. How US Democrats are on the wrong side.

    Seignorage is something I will look into. A new word for the day.... Yes I do think that the best way is revolution. The problem is that that brings its own problems as Africa doesnt have a great track record when it comes to what happens after revolutions. In most cases the lead revolutionary...

    Yes, Gaddafi wanted to save other Afrucan countries. He is the one who wanted a United States of Africa which many Africans still want today. He supported many liberation movements. He was also a tyrant though. So the guy is a mixed bag at best.

    Yeah, he was a brutal dictator, but also the west didn't get rid of him because they were against what he did. If you look at who they have supoorted in thrid world countries we see that they dont have a problem with supporting groups that love perpetrating crimes against humanity.

    How Africa is being exploited by banking élites. How US Democrats are on the wrong side.

    As a coloured South African, yes, neo-colonialism is a big thing. The former colonizers still exert power over Africa and America is along with them playing a big role in destabilizing African countries. Its not just the democrats but also the republicans who are pro exploitation. They are two...

    Is Woke a religion?

    No. The term is used by right wing pundits and media to create a false enemy group, which they lump all their enemies under over the past couple of years. Its similar to the satanic panic. They use this to cause panic, using a few extreme leftists here and there to paint all leftists...

    Martial arts and mental health

    Hi guys, This year I started doing tai chi to relieve high blood pressure issues. And then i went down a rabbit hole. In my school we do Yang style Taiji, 7 Star Mantis and Foshan Wing Chun. Within Taiji we do Qigong exercises and in the other two we incorporate boxing drills as well. These...

    What does Islam say about human rights?

    I think you are confusing the idea of human rights with the very subjective idea of what is considered a human right. I am not saying that what they considered to be a human rights or not was acceptable or the same as today. Besides human rights are still evolving in concept. People 100 years...

    What does Islam say about human rights?

    This doesn't make sense to me. I think that commandments such as "though shalt not murder" and "thou shalt not steal" are acknowledgements of a humans right for life and right to property. Jesus' golden rule is also implies that all humans are kin and should be treated equally and fairly. Most...

    I don't like bosses (in video games)

    Games are good when they are challenging. Bosses provide the challenge. But obviously everybody has different tastes. And that is ok.
