This is not really the primary concern in any African government. Grandstanding for popular votes in order to continue to gorge at the public trough is.

Graft, bribes, nepotism and outright theft are considered standard perks. When you have a voting public that celebrates these behaviours and lauds the practitioners.... you're pretty much made.

Africa would be doing alot better economically if it hadn't been plundered for it's valuable minerals

Still pretending the collective governments of shit-hole country continent aren't still being paid handsomly for this to continue?

Africa consumes. That is all it does. It produces nothing of value. This is a deeply embedded cultural thing. Short-term susbsistence thinking, corruption, criminality and consumption. Blaming the universe for this state of affairs and the complete lack of owning their personal agency or responsibility in anything is - as mentioned earlier - puerile.

And people didn't have to live in inhospitable places like deserts.

What the actual fark does this have to do with anything?

That's the whole point.

Something tells me you don't "get" Africa, aka the shit-hole country continent.

You can have starving massess, collapsing infrastructure, rampant disease, poverty and all manner of social ills but - the BURNING issue is - things have wrong names, the West isn't sending you enough "free" money for "reasons" and the maps make your dong look small.

This is Africa doing Africa. It's puerile noise from self-serving scum. Ignore. Move on.

really he is pointing out your sheer idiocy of your statement.

Not "my" statement. Is lack rationality and comprehension the latest fad?

murder is an act committed against a living person

Yet, apparently, once you're dead you're no longer entitled to said rights so death is a magical cut-off switch

The dead don't need rights, their "wishes" can be put in their will if they so choose.

Cool. So I kill you and get off scott free - NOT murder because you have no rights now - and bonus, I can legally take all your shiat because you no longer have any rights.

5 seconds. You could have paused for 5 seconds and thought this one through.
