A few days back I was watching a video entitled “Why are American Men Weak?” They say research has shown that the men of yesteryears and current ones differ in strength and forget the WWE human giants and the average males are getting weaker. Oh, where art though John Wayne! For example they say the men of yesteryears could make more barbell bench presses than the current ones. They talk about the sperm count of men in the rich countries declining. (What the hell is going on!) And also the birthrate decreasing and all that. In the migrant controversy currently gripping the US we heard one politician saying that as many migrants as possible should come in so that the declining population would pick up. Of course, in the migrant debates as the genuine concerns of safety there is also pure racism in play. Sometime back we’ve heard in a couple of decades the white pollution in the US would be a minority. And this fact by itself is scaring the hell out of many!
Now when it comes to Africa the narrative takes a new look. “Don’t these people have anything to do than making children!” that is the purely racist stance sugar-coated with overpopulation concern narrative. “We’ve to send them more contraceptives! If they refuse to play by our rules hit them with sanctions. Hold back the wheat and all that!”
But then we never hear them talking about the fact that much of Africa’s fertile land is lying untouched. You never hear them saying “We have to help them in any way we can so that the fertile African soil would be utilized and they will free themselves from importing shiploads of grain. Practically close to the entire raw material resources remain below the ground intact and they never tell you Africa would have been in a much better place had these resources been properly developed. No; what you hear them saying loud and clear is “Africans can’t feed themselves!” The underlying message is that Africans couldn’t feed themselves because they don’t have the will to do so and also because they have become so dependent on imports and handouts they don’t want to work for their meals! Really is it because we can’t feed ourselves because we don’t work for it or because we are not wanted to feed ourselves by our own labor!
When you hear all these stories about a one world government and a new world order you can read between the ones. Like they did in Berlin carving out Africa and dividing it among themselves like a giant pieces of cake it wouldn’t be ‘crazy’ to think there might already be some behind the scenes illicit understanding as to which part goes to which side! “Preposterous!” the innocent might think; But then it is the things once upon a time thought to be ‘preposterous’ to think that are messing up this world! And what a mess we’re in! When all of a sudden the world’s makers and breakers “fall in love with Africa…” you smell fish… even if you had never experienced the smell of fish!
I think as time goes by there would be an avalanche of currently ‘secret’ narratives about coordinated efforts to make Africa stay poor and messed up. I mean of course it’s not about only macho gung-ho politicians we are talking about. More and more, much of the mainstream western media being ‘politically affiliated’ it’d be very challenging for Africa to beat back the frontal and secret onslaught. The cultural invasions seem to have borne fruits in quite a number of places with issues taboo to highly religious countries like Ethiopia increasingly crowding the newspaper pages and the television screens. This is not about being pessimistic but about what actually has been going on for decades and shows no sign of abating.
Reporting about Davos 2023 WEF meeting one media said about one thousand and forty private jets have touched down in that resort town. These are filthy rich billionaires and multi-millionaires who seem to have taken the task of reconfiguring the planet. “The Great Reset;” isn’t that what they call it! In better days it would have been something which could have prompted a million “Wow’s!” Not anymore. I mean with the good, the bad and the ugly all meddled up it is impossible to see real pictures these days. But then the rhetoric is the billionaires think they are the ones to save the world, as if there has been some divine intervention to bring them together. Here is what John Kerry said; ‘When you stop and think about it, it’s pretty extraordinary that we select group of human beings because of whatever touched us at some point in our lives, are able to sit in a room and come together and actually talk about saving the planet,’
And here is the real killer; ‘It’s so… almost extra-terrestrial to think about, “saving the planet.”
But then to save Africa there’s no need for anything extra-terrestrial but only realizing what actually is going on and rising up to the challenge!
