Why is it that literally every other group of people on the planet have found a way to make money using Africa but the Africans themselves can't figure it out?

It sounds racist to say that but just think about it. Whether it's a Chinese person, American person, British person, a mesixan, or even a Caribbean person - just throw them into the middle of the Congo and they will thrive. But you stick a native Congolese in there and they can't figure out how to even wipe their own ass.

Why is this?

That's pretty much what the entire slave trade was. A bunch of war lords and local leaders realized they could make bank selling their people to the white man, so they did. It made many Africans rich.

Africa, as a landmass, is nothing but a resource hub. The peoples living there simply didn't do nothing.

...

lucked out that gold, salt, and copper were abundant and easy to mine in the region.

West Africans are white

...

I don't understand how that's any luckier than anybody else in the world who made their wealth mining natural resources.

Why is it the standard for Europeans but it's considered luck when an African guy does it?

checked lucky trips

Corruption.

damn

You need money to make money retard (whether your own or from social spending).

Because to them an African has to be 2 (often 3+) times the person to be nearly an equal to that persons "standards". That is to say

Dude have you ever gone to an ivy league school? Africans are all in STEM and Law.

Africa's middle and upper class are growing annually and African leadership have vast wealth.

They sold slaves.

Isn't nigeria making a lot of money off its resources these days?

If the civil wars in Africa were such detriments to technology, why did they fight for so long? Surely some of them read a book or two and realized this.

>human development is a linear track where all people race to meet the same goals and accomplishments

I blame video games for this belief. The world doesn't work like that.

marxist class dialectis and traditionalists' euro wankery are actually to blame tho

almost EVERYTHING that happens in history is predetermined by geography.

Africa is as beautiful as it is lethal. Diseases, Lions, Gorillas, crocodiles, etc.
African natives are nowhere near the top of their food chain, because of the things listed above, and more.

Farming is also crucial for civilisation, and I could imagine how hard it is to farm a staple crop in such conditions, while at the same time having to worry about panthers and crocodiles ripping you to shreds.

There's a reason our ancestors left Africa, because it's so fucking hard to live there.
