Race has nothing to do with it.
Alright then its just dumb
Please don't start screaming racist when my statement did not mention race and had nothing to do with race.
And not racist
Still not realy how it works tho
If you want to have a stable labor market (and therefore a stable society) you need to control immigration.
That's not stupid. That's reality.
Your statement is avout migration inaide that country tho isnt it ?
It's not racist to point out Africans aren't very good at creating the sort of cities Europeans do, and that is the sort of cities Africans want to live in now since they can just walk into Europe
Like yeah almost every country has migration of ppl towards capital
That's not the correct usage of Racist
If there is a European built and run colonial city, that's effectively a European enclave within a country, distinct from the rest of the country.
But it doesn't create slums
Racist refers to you wanting to destroy another Race
The European city will be much, much better than the rest of Africa (or else what's the point of building it)
they're literally saying we will manage your cities for free
Look at crime stats for any city vs. the countryside.
Well i find the whole idea of neocolonial city run by Europeans pretty disturbing tbh
@Atkins nah they're saying that like German companies should manage African cities and Germany will pay for it
It's not a open borders settlement for Germans
Well, that might actually work too.
It'll sort of be like retired janissaries in the Ottoman Turk empire
@zutt it's being described in those terms, but i fail to understand the objection :/
Foreign born people with no blood or tribal connections acting as administrative staff.
It worked really well for the Ottomans until they started allowing the janissaries to marry and own land.
if people in Africa want to live in better cities, here is a way for them to, instead of struggling their way up Libya to Europe where they'll be targeted by Evil European WHYTE Racists
So the foreign administrators must be barred from marrying locals and owning land or investing.
Nothing that could give them conflict of interest.
Hah colonialism will safe Africa says the EU
Dude it might actually.
“Let is come and build cities.”
Read Fukuyama.
lol colonial times was literally when most of the infrastructure in Africa was built, and now it's China
You have to get kinship corruption out of the system.
and it's more about saving Europe from Africa than saving Africa...
i think
And the simplest way to get rid of kinship corruption is to outsource administration to foreign born people.
Mongols did it. Turks did it.
B-b-but a minority of people ruling over the majority
