    The so called "Anti French sentiment" is just a conclusion to an observation made by the masses over the years, and a language used by France to be seen as victims.

    • @mrsupremegascon
      @mrsupremegascon 3 месяца назад +1

      What observation exactly ? Be specific.
      They accuse France of stealing resources, what resources ? Uranium ? France barely get any Uranium from Niger since decades now, especially since higher quality and cheaper Uranium from Canada and Kazaksthan are available now.
      Gold ? Most gold go to China, UAE or Switzerland, plus gold doesn't have that much value.
      They accuse France of robbing Africans with France CFA. Firstly, no evidence of that anywhere, secondly Africans are way to poor to get robbed of anything. That is like a billionaire stealing the changes from an homeless. You can accuse him of being a terrible person, but no billionaire become rich like that.
      Their anti-french is the result of propaganda, use by Africans, especially African governments, to cope on their failures and shift the blame.
      Look at how France barely cared when they were asked to leave.

Keep bringing this disinformation about religion that you got from the US and EU and another thing, is not only about the language, is about the Franc CFA that France still rule over it. that was one of the main causes they used to take Gaddafi out aka Coup D'etat!! and I love how misinformed y'all are about Africa. most of the rulers are there imposed by Europe and stood for more than 20, 30 40 and 50 years and nobody complained about ditactorship. But when it came to Gaddafi because he was giving stuff back to the people y'all complained and took him down with Social Media and desinformation campaign.

      It's not a matter of infantalizing people, no leader in Africa who ever actually tried to help the people remained in power for long.
      Always an externally funded coup or assassination.
      Most of the leaders are only their because they pose no threat to the West.

This was so well researched too - you basically turned a really well made uni paper with sources and all into a video, and the presentation is top notch as well. Can't praise this enough. Sometimes the algorithm does find hidden gold.

    12:23 Citing the Africa Center for Strategic Studies map of Russian disinformation campaigns in Africa and then saying that that is the equivalent of the CIA’s campaigns in the Cold War is an example of a broader issue I have with the case made in this video. ACSS is a branch of the US Department of Defense! Overall through the video what is being shown is the idea that Russia is now meddling in the same way the US did in the past, but there is no acknowledgement of the US’s role in these countries as after the Cold War it is taken for granted, just as that DoD map of Russian disinformation is taken for granted.
    This just a 4 sentence RUclips comment, I don’t think I conveyed my thoughts nearly as best here as possible, but if I can encourage anyone to look deeper and more critically than the perspective offered in this video than I’m grateful.

      Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts! I appreciate your critical feedback and this is exactly the sort of thoughtful disagreement I love to see on my channel.
      I actually had some hesitation about using the ACSS map due to the DOD’s likely bias, but it was the best visual available, and its data aligned with other sources I reviewed. I chose to present the map as is rather than create a custom version in geolayers because I felt that would have obscured the origin of the information, which would have been buried in the sources.
      Ultimately, I agree with your overarching point - everyone should look more deeply and critically at every issue. My perspective is just one of many, and all perspectives, including mine, are biased one way or the other. Appreciate you encouraging deeper thought on this topic!

    Bro as someone who is super interrested in africa and wants to move there one day, Ibsaw your video on lagos a month ago and though: "this is really cool and informative, but the production is pretty bad". This is a HUGE step up. Keep up the great work! I will be eager to watch your content in the future!

    What is a democratic elected president? Do think if election were solutions they was going to let us vote? Faso. Mali and Niger coup was necessary and I belive Ghana. Cameron. Kenya. South African and real one at ivory coast. Nigeria can't afford to one at this moment after years of coup.. Dam nice video but massage questionable
