Why Africa is the Laughing Stock of the World

Contrary to what we may think, it is not the intellectual or moral nature of Africans that is the source of misery on the continent, but a culture of opportunistic looting dependent on colonial alienation and modeled on it’s ethical pattern. The source of Africans’ evil lies in the vicious logic that allow access to power, at all levels of sociopolitical life, to the hopeless and the most villainous people, while the good ones are marginalized, downtrodden or eliminated by a brood of fornicators, an infect peat of opportunistic nonentity who only think about themselves, have no sense of community, no great soul but -- beating the limit of stupidity -- think that the sun shines out of their ass, and hand on the torch from generation to generation. From Italy to Japan, from Brazil to China, the mafia culture is neither new nor unknown. But in a healthy and future-loving society, the culture of crime remains within its sociological normality. In no continent in the world, no country in the world, no culture in the world this type of ethical logic subversion of good by evil, whereby evil is in control and eliminate the good, is not so much triumphant and systematic as is the case in Africa. Dependent on the ethics and mo-

dus operandi of colonialism, this logic has been recovered, naturalized, adapted and brought to its height by the African elite, happy to put his feet in the shoes of the old colonial master. In such a condition, where the Africans themselves, in a diabolical policy chain, renew blithely predatory habits inherited from colonialism, how can you expect Africa to develop like other continents? How can you expect that, despite its huge material and human resources, Africa does not continue to be a pity if not the laughingstock of the world whereas its elite is objectively part-involved and a cog of neocolonialism?
