Lets talk about his brilliance and creativeness instead of focusing on "ye" I like Ye as well and i understand him where a lot of people don't. The arrogance is making him loose. Let's talk about the positive😊 Akon is contributing. Awesome man, beautiful character, intelligent. A genius in his own right.

They are colonizing Africa through debt. Akon may be able to pay it back but most African governments can't because they aren't borrowing a few billion, it's hundreds of billions. It's like saying former slave masters were doing some positive shit when they had to free the slaves and started the sharecrop trap and were basically able to keep they slaves
@KatoOnTheTrack12 жыл бұрын
@@KhanhPham-zq9sf maybe it’s bad to compare modern times to the colonial period. There is one obvious difference, I don’t believe Chinese companies are forcing their way into African countries right? Regardless of any extreme contract being signed. Didn’t Europeans just take advantage of warring regions and dividing up the real estate? Are you Chinese are doing something comparable to that? It’s nothing like saying “former slave masters were doing positive shit” when removing emotion and looking at it objectively. Putting themselves in what you are saying is a potential financial crisis is that nation’s choice.
@KhanhPham-zq9sf2 жыл бұрын
@@KatoOnTheTrack1 Chinese companies are forcing their way into Africa. They are using influence gained from billions of dollars in dept to control African laws. They have started building military bases across Africa. They are quite literally doing what Europeans did to the rest of the world. How is that a positive? Why shouldn't we compare modern times to colonial period when right now, China is literally colonizing Africa the same way the Europeans did? The Chinese literally whip african workers when they don't work fast enough....there is already tens of thousands of rape cases. The only real difference is, the chinese haven't shot people, YET, but building and garrisoning bases in Africa means that isn't very far away from happening. On the whole choosing financial crisis is a nation's choice, it is no different than saying it was a slave's choice to be a slave since they could have escaped or committed suicide. Lastly, a corrupt leader taking chinese bribes, is not making a choice for the nation, he is making a choice for himself and the nation must suffer the consequences. The african people have no say in whether they get colonized or not, it is the rich in power who do
