sandintoes, People in tribal societies feel that only the leader has any power, so all they can do is kow tow to them. For many thousands of years the evolving homo sapiens has been tribal in nature. Alpha male dominated, every other tribe an enemy. As tribes became larger and built other settlements they formed a tribe with multiple locations. They were still geographically restricted in this past era and people did not travel far from home. This led to various phenotypes evolving. africaguide.com In time each of these became the major tribes in Africa. The areas where these tribe met were often areas of intense conflict. The term in Africa is called "faction fighting", we call them gang fights. Each faction or gang belongs to one tribe and they fight another tribe that way. Latterly political parties in Africa operate this way within a single tribe.
How do we stop this? We cannot. We cannot impose 'whitey law' on Africans. Rememeber the first whitey law they saw was the fake religions that went to Africa to save the heathens and convert them to Christianity. Many converted and then they soon saw that these clerics had feet of lead and now there is a wide spread hatred of western religions in Africa. Remember, all relgion is fakery, so why were we to presume that our religion was the one true religion. After all among fakes, who pretends to be real? We have seen too much corruption among the western religions to ever see them as valid religions any more. All the churches are in a precipitous retreat in terms of believers. Now less than 5% of people go to church.(higher in some southern states and places where coercive supervision of attendance is practiced and leads to shunning and other forms of tribal control. Of course, ask people and many say they believe. Count attendance at churches = 5% or less. Many churches are closing down.
Now in the past churches were centers of militancy and warmaking. Holy war, bless the troops, jihad, etc.
So we are just furhter removed from our warring past. What removed us? Climate became the enemy as we went north. We were forced to civilize and societize by the recurring ice ages that drove us in slow climactic migrations north and south(I mean ice age advances and retreats....not annual herder style migrations).
Over this period we learned the benefits of co-operation and civilzation. Technology also came along as we needed houses, weapons etc. There was a lot less of this in AFrica, so they stayed closer to their tribal roots.
It is no co-incidence that most gangs are black and hispanic. Fewer are white and asian...but there are some white and asian, showing that part of it is socio-economic as well as a tribal residue. There are few or no mixed black white gangs...indicting tribal root. If pure socio-economic, you would find mixed gangs.
So in effect you cannot march in and plaster western attributes on the people unless you want to stay there and occupy them. When you leave they will shed the western trappings and go back to what they did before. Even now in Zimbabwe they are undoing a few hundred years fo white farm development and turning those farms back into subsistence plots. Zimbabwe cannot make it's own food any more. It cannot buy it's own food. It has too many people for subsietence plots to support. So many of those people will die, some will try to migrate into other Africam countries who will meet them with bullets and some will go to assorted north american places, as well as to Europe. Asians will not take them. They know better than to import a problem. In Canada(Toronto) we now have 4-5 black-black gun killings per week. The white gun killing are about 25-20 per year, and that has stayed stable for years.
So Africa has to have a huge meltdown. We are sick and tired of giving cash to crooked tyrants and we do not want to go there and occupy them. Leav them alone and do not let them come here and in a few thousand years they will work it out.
