I went to a market fair in my town that runs all summer every wednesday. He asked me if I was in the military or had been so I told him yeah, then he told me about his time as a rhodesian infantryman, this was a day before the SC shooter happened and I actually didnt know what the gently caress rhodesia was until the kid was shown with his flag or whateber. I connected the dots a day later and realized this dude was literally fighting for a white minority slave holding state that the UN hated (mainly because Rhodesian was really succesfull before the civil war. He told me about how good Zimbabwe used to be before the black majority took over and destroyed the country. He was a nice guy, Im goung to go talk to him on wednesday again because Im really interested in how Rhodesia was run and poo poo before the majority blacks took over.

Then things just got so drat tough once the leader the world community had demanded came in....

Robert Mugabe changed the name to Zimbabwe because that sounded vaguely African.

Yes it is. Implying that anything bad in existence is the fault of anyone but white people is in fact racist.

If I had to guess I'd say that the white rulers probable destroyed all relevant cultural institutions and imprisoned or killed any leaders that were a threat to them during their period of racist rule. Therefore it's not surprising when they were overthrown it went totally to poo poo. That's usually what happens.

Racism is poo poo, and those who promote racism are poo poo, but everyone should read a bio of Cecil Rhodes because that guy's life was loving mental. A historical bastard of the highest order but a pretty clever little poo poo all told. One heck of a crazy-rear end.

When I was in South Africa my friends 70 year old uncle used to go nuts over the fact the black government was renaming all the roads to African for the sake of it and would get lost when driving us around and his Road atlas didnt match up. Was pretty funny.

If your only friends are the Portuguese and Saffers, you hosed up. I can't believe my government was paying subsidies to Rhodie scum all the way into the 90s, tbh.

my favorite piece of Rhodesia trivia was when they were censoring any talk of the ruins being made by black people because they couldn't possibly build anythingquote:I was the archaeologist stationed at Great Zimbabwe. I was told by the then-director of the Museums and Monuments organisation to be extremely careful about talking to the press about the origins of the [Great] Zimbabwe state. I was told that the museum service was in a difficult situation, that the government was pressurising them to withhold the correct information. Censorship of guidebooks, museum displays, school textbooks, radio programmes, newspapers and films was a daily occurrence. Once a member of the Museum Board of Trustees threatened me with losing my job if I said publicly that blacks had built Zimbabwe. He said it was okay to say the yellow people had built it, but I wasn't allowed to mention radio carbon dates... It was the first time since Germany in the thirties that archaeology has been so directly censored.

So thanks for the anecdotal crap that somehow miraculously backs up your idiot world view. You'll be banned later I'm sure, but from here on anytime I see you I'm going to give you a month.
