The relationship between capitalism and colonialism. My points: Pre-colonial African societies were never capitalist. Commercial activities ≠ Capitalism. *Africa is capable of developing indigenous ideas to fight capitalism, without necessarily adopting outside ideas, since the continent knew and practiced the alternatives before colonialism.

UN Secretary-General Guterres on Africa: Africa is a double victim of colonialism. First, because of colonialism itself and what colonialism has caused. We can talk about the transatlantic slave trade and many other aspects in which the African continent has been sacrificed. And then second reason why it’s a victim, because when the institutions that are today the multilateral institutions of global governance were created, the African countries, most of them, were still under colonial domination. So they were not present and they were not taken into account, and so Africa is not effectively represented in the multilateral institutions that exist today. And that is something that is a scandal that needs to be corrected.

STEVE BANNON: The Communist Party is the exact opposite. The Chinese Communist Party, the One Belt One Road Initiative is really just taking the model of the British East India company of predatory capitalism and just putting it in reverse. --- They're looking for elite capture, and they do that through a predatory form of capitalism that quite frankly the British East India company and the British perfected in the height of colonialism. President Trump is anti-colonialism. He wants nations of the earth to be able to work with each other in a basis that's based on reciprocal interest and this is why he's a Nationalist.

CAPITALISM REQUIRES RACISM AND INEQUALITY According to Dr Ruth Wilson Gilmore, capitalism requires inequality to function, and racism enshrines that inequality. Or, as the great Pan-Africanist Malcolm X put it, ‘You can’t have capitalism without racism.’ In this clip from a recent talk, Gilmore, a scholar at The Graduate Center, who has been studying the relationship between racism, capitalism, and the US prison system for over 30 years, explained that capitalism needs to keep people divided into categories to continue exploiting them. If nothing separates us, one can imagine the dangers a united working class might pose to the capitalist system. In addition to dividing modern workers, capitalists needed to deploy racism to develop the initial capital used to create their now global system. Thus came chattel slavery in the Americas, g*nocide across multiple continents, and colonial theft around the world. In the words of assassinated Burkina Faso President Thomas Sankara (1949-87), ‘It is our blood that nourished the rise of capitalism, that made possible our present condition of dependence and consolidated our underdevelopment. But we cannot hide the truth any more; it cannot be ignored. The figures cannot be simply haggled away. For every Black man who came to the plantations, five died or were crippled.’

Either this comes from ignorance, or you are deliberately dismissing the history of a country that contributed greatly to the African continent. Somalia’s contributions to Africa were extensive, and many of them came at a time when African states and liberation movements were still fighting colonialism, apartheid, and foreign domination. It began with Somalia’s own long struggle against colonial rule, including the Dervish resistance, which became one of the most remarkable and prolonged anti-colonial resistance movements in Africa. After gaining independence in 1960, Somalia did not simply turn inward and focus on itself. It became one of the founding members of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) in 1963, an organization established in part to promote African unity and help complete the liberation of the continent from colonial rule. Somalia then used its diplomatic position on the international stage to speak for Africans who were still living under colonialism. During its time on the UN Security Council in the early 1970s, Somalia pushed for stronger action against Portuguese colonialism and supported efforts to cut off the military assistance that enabled Portugal to continue its colonial wars in African territories such as Angola, Mozambique, and Guinea-Bissau. Somalia also supported African liberation movements beyond its own borders and stood behind struggles against colonialism and apartheid across the continent. That support was not merely rhetorical. Somalia provided political, diplomatic, educational, and material support to liberation movements fighting for independence and majority rule. And Somali solidarity did not stop at Africa’s borders. In 1972, Somali women protested in solidarity with Angela Davis, an African American activist who was imprisoned in the United States at the time. Carrying signs declaring “Angela Is Innocent,” they demanded her release. Despite being thousands of miles away, Somalis were paying attention to African struggles elsewhere in the world and saw the fight against racism, colonialism, and imperialism as interconnected. You are entitled to believe Ghana deserves a place on that list. But suggesting that Somalia should be removed to make room for Ghana shows a dismissive attitude toward the history of an African country that contributed greatly to the continent and, at many points in its history, stood for something that all Africans should be proud of.

Elon Musk: "I don't believe Africa's poverty is caused by colonialism." Michael Parenti: "The Third World is not poor. It is over exploited.” Capitalism is maintained through imperialism and the theft of resources from third world countries. This is why the US is always at war.

Capitalism Has Always Relied On Colonialism And Imperial Violence In this clip, Swaziland-born anthropologist Jason Hickel makes an important distinction between 'Capitalism' and 'Market-Based Economics' - a distinction that has been deliberately obfuscated by Western interests that are served by the constant conflation of these 2 completely separate concepts. This distinction is particularly important in Africa, where huge amounts of US money from organisations like the Heritage Foundation have poured in to fund ideological subversion efforts specifically intended to confuse Africans into conflating their indigenous market-based systems with capitalism. This large scale propaganda effort has historically operated through local faces, such as Ghanaian neoliberal economist George Ayittey, Senegalese neoliberal ideologue Magatte Wade, and Beninese-American neoliberal influencer Franck Zanu.

The left blames the bombing in the Middle East on capitalism. Israel and the United States are capitalist countries. They exist because of stole land. That is why they want to destroy them.

Let Them Eat Strawberries: A Lesson on Capitalism This video from Nathan Emery was likely served into my algo as rage bait, but it prompted a valuable lesson on capitalism for people who are frustrated with "the system" and seeking a solution. Capitalism is always the closest thing to blame and when it's done over light piano music from a friendly-toned voice and likely a well-meaning family man. You could almost think he's right. The real culprit is bloated, inefficient bureaucracy, not capitalism. Certainly capitalism is not without flaw, but it is the single most effective system for improving quality of life for the most people, driving innovation and allocating resources efficiently. The competition and incentive structure is why the world is a prosperous as it is. This simplistic breakdown explains capitalism through strawberries and why the education system has failed so many people. This video could be hours long, but for brevity hopefully this gives a generalized overview that drives less people to communism and more people to embrace how great capitalism actually is.
