    If we don't take into account reality and human nature... yes.

    But I don't live in a world that is written on paper.

    Yeah, I’d be against that as well.

    So what are we actually talking about then? You’re going backwards. France is one of the largest colonial powers of Africa, why would they let this happen under their watch, or is it all ok as long as the countries keep mining gold and other natural resources for them?

    According to retards like Seran and all the other triggered retards like him who are out virtue signaling for Columbus Day today, yes. But only for other people. The people crying about it have decided that they get a pass and can stay. But everyone else has to go.

    I’m not well versed in the geopolitical landscape happening in Africa, so I really can’t comment.

    Methais asked if the world was generally more peaceful from 2017-2020 than 2021 to now. The answer to that question is no.

    I think we all know that the lens of that question was related to Trump admin vs Biden admin and the US had very minimal impact in that region in either presidency unfortunately.

    But go ahead, alter the question, so you can get the answer you want.

    If you want to go by deaths, you’re still wrong.

    Yep, you can't deal with facts because they don't support you simping for terrorists.

    Everyone wants what America has but they don't want to pay the 250 years of blood, sweat and treasure to have it. They all think that you can bomb somewhere or pass some law or make some declaration and in 5 years they are all living like Americans. Sorry to say, you have to pony up the decades to educate your population, you have to build a strong foundation of personal responsibility, personal property rights and personal innovation and you have to stop expecting someone else to hand it to you. Unfortunately, we took in all the outliers from Europe and built a nation and they are too filled with the collectivists to innovate. The rest of the world simply hasn't put in the effort. Sadly, the collectivist whiners have infected America and taken advantage of our good nature and it's killing us.

    You can do a Google search like I did for “armed conflicts in 20XX” and get the numbers.
