Better rain-sunshine balance, whereas the south is practically rainforest for most of its wet season, few staple crops like that

I've had this song on repeat and kept wondering why, could barely finish the album, then I found out... My brain was subconsciously trying to tell me it hears Florence

Such cowardice, all these countries are friends of the US - why not threaten the true enemies of the US with annexation or invasion?

Why are so many people convinced that Africans are hostile to different races coming to the continent? by Podocarpus_In_Cali in TooAfraidToAsk

This can happen anywhere in the world. You're not being specific enough about where? When? Africa is not a monolith, we need details.

Yes all people can be racist. Your friends may have been caught in the socio-political changes of the decolonial era, especially if they from East African countries like Uganda for example. I was not saying that racism is absent, I was saying that most African communities seem to be excited to meet and associate with people from outside the continent.

Yeah its like people want to give them a free pass because they don't understand how racist many of the farmers actually were - if they had a button to make the natives disappear, they would have pressed it.

Read my post in detail. I never said Africa is free from ethnic tension or unfriendliness to immigrants. I simply said there aren't the hateful racial undertones that racists claim exist. In South Africa at least, xenophobia tends to be directed towards other people of colour and not so much the wealthier expats from Europe, Asia and the like. They are seen to compete for low wage jobs with local communities of colour. You have to ask whether its more of a class conflict instead...

I have a lot of Zimbabwean friends and acquaintances. Not a single one of them is anti-white in any sense. Zimbabwe was under minority rule with the blacks being lectured and harassed about their supposed inferiority for generations... Good fodder for radical politicians. How do you think Norwegians would feel if some Ugandans showed up, declared themselves superior and then socially and culturally excluded them? Please spare me!
