Well the thing is in Africa for example their economic growth is steadily increasing since 1980’s. However Africa is ethnically, culturally and economically diverse and they’re projected to surpass Europe and the americas by 2039. However the Chinese are also posit to extreme growth much sooner. if you take a look at the statistics from say the last 10 years or so, India of all the asian countries is looking to rival china in the global market. Their GDP is about $15,563 per capita.

However India technically does have the same problem in that their birth rates are below replacement and declining, but they have a younger population than China, and it will take them much longer to get to the same stage that China is at. Birth rates are declining all over the world, birth rates are declining in Africa too, it’s just their birth rates are so high to begin with, the rest of the world will experience economic, political, and social issues from declining populations while Africa will eventually, just like a hundred years after everybody else does.

Now if you were to compare the conditions in China under Mao’s cultural revolution to Africa today, African countries are generally in a better position. There aren’t tens of millions of Africans dying in famines. The main issue is dependency ratios. We could talk about the basket cases that are CAR and Guinea, the kleptocratic dysfunction that leaves South Africa without a stable power grid or a functional Air Force, the DRC factions that eat pygmies and wear human intestines as adornments, Zimbabwe trying to come out of its long headache with Mugabe, Angola struggling despite a long-ended civil war and a bounty of wonderful farmland, minerals, and oil.

Anyways it comes down to greedy elites and their proxies who get theirs and don’t care if it’s the French, Chinese, or someone else paying them as long as they get theirs to sell their countries’ independence and future.
Maybe there’s a sidebar about the development aid grift that has elites siphon money into Swiss bank accounts and pay off their allies. But the NGO gets to continue as an institution and can run ads about kids who carry water all day.
don’t want Africa to control Europe or Europe to control Africa. I want a global order where there’s mutual respect for international law and countries respect human rights and human dignity.

Also, on the topic of space, humanity as a whole is extremely primitive in this regard. Less than a thousand humans have ever been to space in all of history. The barrier to space is mostly economic. The United States currently is the only country with the capability of sending humans to lunar orbit, and they only can send four at a time. The United States can do that because we have the largest economy out of any country in the world, but even with our economy we can just barely do that. I think it is more likely if you consider that there are about half a trillion stars in our galaxy, a million is a tenth of a percent of a billion, and we have hundreds of billions of stars in our galaxy.

It is possible that there are civilizations that are far more advanced than we are. We currently do not have the capability to send any object to another star system within a human lifetime. We can’t send people, we can’t send a robot, we can’t send a grain of sand. just find it hard to believe somebody who knows a lot about Africa would bring up a country of 19 million people every time somebody talks about a continent with 1.5 billion people and more specifically only bring up something a YouTuber said about immigrants from that country in American cities. That seems like something someone who doesn’t know anything about Africa other than from one YouTuber would say.

It’s like if two people in China were having a conversation about Europe and then one Chinese person was like, "Don’t you know there are immigrants from Estonia in China who are doing crypto scams? Why do we import people from this backwards culture?" Reducing Africa down to just Somalia and reducing Somalia down to just immigrants in the United States and reducing Somali immigrants in the United States down to something you saw one guy talk about in a damn YouTube video is incredibly stupid.
