african debt traps intensify
Put the Kool-Aid down. Stop uncritically accepting propaganda from neocolonial states and their corporate media.

my guy your waking life consists of reposting the same 5 talking points
i’d maybe take a moment of quiet reflection
Chinese Investment In Africa Has Had ‘Significant And Persistently Positive’ Long-Term Effects Despite Controversy
“The results show that Chinese foreign direct investment (FDI) sets in motion a process of transformation in the local economy that damages local competitors but – at the same time – benefits local suppliers to the new Chinese firms as well as their local clients.”
this is another way of saying that local businesses are destroyed, save from the ones that become functionally chinese subsidiaries
if the west did this you’d be having a meltdown
study on Chinese investments

and that’s when they do restructure a loan for you, rather than just letting you default and having your economy explode like happened with sri lanka
no debt trap

this just says “development good” without defining what that is
the same metric would justify european colonialism of africa
