what were the relative technological and societal differences between the two continents at the time the Europeans began raiding the Africans?
Massive
What’s your point?

I don’t disagree with any of your points. I never made a statement that Africa hasn’t had the opportunity to sustain itself in modern times. Only that it was raided for its resources, which is factually correct. Of course tribal kings, the slave trade, the things you mention, were to their detriment as well. But those were also lead by a select few at the top, which has been the way of Africa since the beginning of recorded history.
We can go back as far as you want to pinpoint where Africa’s issues begin. That’s fine. But everything else in between can’t just be ignored.
Funding UNITA is the most blatant example and is quite recent. Jonas Savimbi was on the American tax dollar payroll and he was a mass murderer that we thought we could benefit from being in power. We not only allowed, but funded, a civil war in the name of fighting communism. To pretend we didn’t directly play a role in today’s Angola is burying your head in the sand

Look, I’m not saying personal choice to rape and pillage isn’t a thing.
But context is important. If Africa hadn’t been raided by Europeans things look a lot different today.

But during the game I asked multiple people around at various tailgate points if anyone knew whether the Indiana Hoosiers vs Oregon Ducks game was on at a local bar.
Wait, I want to make sure I understand.
You expected people at a tailgate to know if a particular bar planned to show another game? And you’re confused as to why they didn’t know?

You should read up on what europeans and the UK have done to Africa. Congo, Angola, South Africa to start, but basically the entire continent was pushed into poverty. It’s no surprise they are dangerous places, their resources have been stolen and there’s little to no opportunity for their citizens.
re: So? Three receivers in this draft? Anybody thinks they might want to move from Olave ??

Certainly not
Olave was basically our only consistent contributing wr

Not sure how you came to this.
I was far from a Biden supporter and would not have supporter him starting a war. Same as I do not support Trump in this endeavor. It had nothing to do with Trump specifically and everything to do with not wanting the US to play “world police” which is a term Trump used during the election when claiming Kamala would bomb Iran.
I mean, my question is fair considering Trump on several occasions during the election stated that Kamala would go to war with Iran. He was very explicit. And bombing Iran was highly unpopular before it actually happened, even among the MAGA base.
But to be clear, you are saying if Biden would have started a war with Iran, you would have supported it. Got it, and appreciate your response.

Just wondering how this board felt during the debates on this topic. We’ve known for years that Iran was financing terrorists, and debate around them building a nuclear bomb is not new.
Would you all feel the same had a dem won, and decided to bomb Iran? What if Biden had done as much?

We have zero information to base an opinion
Maybe he was pilled out of his mind, hauling arse
Or maybe he was dodging a dog and rolled it
Although in the latter example he’d have to still be hauling arse in a residential area, so not great
