bro the darfur genocide of early 2000s has a body count of damn near half a million. There’s no much bigger than that lmao
New parties funding the aggressors doesn’t change the fact that it’s still at its very core a tribal war
Again, no. It is not. While the number of victim is enormous, there are reason behind these attacks, racial, colonial, imperialist, economical, strategic. This is a much bigger and complexe situation than a simple tribal war. And all of this is rooted in colonialism, white supremacy and imperialism. I know it's hard to see without a materialist thinking but that's reality
Colonization did not create these structures, there are records of African warfare before modern Europeans stepped foot Africa. Right now the racial categories are more cultural wise than the typical European color one. An “Arab” from Sudan is not the same as someone from the actual Arab peninsula
Listen, if you want a course of the effect of colonization I can direct you to amazing literature. The point you need to understand is that despite conflicts in the past, the racial categories that are at the center of this conflict are rooted in capitalism and colonialism. Believe me don't believe me, I don't care, it's factual. Learn about whiteness, then we will be able to have a much better conversation.
It’s deeply unserious to tie the west to every single bad thing in the world.
You are the only one doing this. You are the one making big generalizations, not me. i'm talking about precise issue and domination system. If you do not care learning about that, it's ok, but do not try to give me lessons about seriousness.
It shows a huge blind spot of history and just proves how west centric you are.
Same thing, Learn about anticapitalism, anticolonialism and anti imperialism from the POV of subjugated people, from researchers and activist, then we will have this discussion. It's useless to talk about this subject if you do not do that first.
Let’s face it, the west is not the center of the world.
Sadly it is. By design.
Does it play a part today? Yeah, but it is nowhere near the main reason why this conflict happens. That is just extremely self centered to believe so
COnflicts are multifactorial, and what the west is doing now is not the same as what the west has done before. Yet, these two factors are still at play in the conflict : colonialism + Imperialism. Now, you add the capitalist interest of other nations and alliance (China/UAE etc.) and you get a genocide funded by capitalist and imperialist agenda. Something that could be reduced by preventing these fundings.
