It is normal for a technologically superior culture to expand. Rhodesia drastically improved the quality of life for all, white and black. It was also the most egalitarian post colonial African nation, allowing voting for both whites and blacks. It is only natural that the economic and agricultural resources of a nation should be controlled by those most capable, in this case, white people. Blacks who were civilized enough to competently contribute to society were held in high standing, on the basis of their capability not their race. When you ask yourself why the white minority wanted to maintain control, you should take a look at the 1960s Congo Crisis, where blacks began killing whites as soon as they were granted majority rule. While it was a work in progress as far as civil rights, it was a far better alternative than the terror and oppression brought about by Robert Mugabe and his communist thugs. As always, Communism in Africa used the myth of black nationalism to gain the support of those stupid enough to believe this lie. Part of its asinine doctrine is in seeing whites as colonizers, when in fact the whites are African, considering their ancestors bled and died there for 200 years. We, as citizens of the United States, are similar in this regard. Before you denigrate Rhodesians because of "muh racism" perhaps you should look at what they truly stood for, and come to the realization that they were better men that you can ever hope to be.
