Sweden has taken in a shit ton of them over the last 10-20 years and its showing culturally. Last time I was in Stockholm in one of the big train stations there was a noticeable black population (comparable with an English city). I used to watch a late teens League player who was based in Sweden (from Somalia)...he was shit hot as Leblanc. | |||

I just want a liberal to admit that there are indeed bad people who have melanin in their skin. I think Juris would acquit OJ Simpson and his rationale would be "Nicole had it coming"

Then the Ottoman Empire decayed over time due to an inability to truly consolidate and rule their people. They had many different people's under their rule, and cultural differences made it difficult to rule with anything but a very lose hold. The rich got lazy and conservative and they sat their on rusting institutions rather than the military/bureaucratic innovation going on in Europe. By World War I, regimented armies with fire arms and suppy-lines showed up and tore the Ottomans apart. Which had no national education system or modern bureaucracies like the Europe. Why did Europe pull ahead? Mostly we believe its because constant war made the state more necessary, powerful, and efficient. The Ottoman Empire did not need to fight as many wars as the Empires of Europe. Therefore, they did not "evolve" as fast. | |||

Somalia was also one of the first countries to have firearms, imported by the Ottomans to aid in the somali-portugese, and the ajural-portugese conflict over control of the Indian ocean. This was prioritized by the Ottomans due to their close ties, as a way of contesting Portugese domination of trade in the Indian ocean. So they weren't just marched on by guys with rifles while they were carrying swords and sharpened sticks; they've had many firearms imported since their first sultanate. Most of the conquest they've faced in their history was not at the hands of the white man, but actually primarily other African nations. | |||

Hell I didn't include him in past posts because we've fallen out of touch and I don't particularly like him very much these days, but the one billionaire I used to be personal friends with was 100% self made as well. At one point he was the wealthiest man on earth. I'd say who it is but I'd get a bunch of "uncle at nintendo shit that didn't happen" replies and I don't feel like digging up proof because I'm lazy, so you can make the incredibly easy guess.

I mean seriously who thinks being in the top 1% is something america promises every citizen? it takes generations to get there, hence being born in special familial circumstances.
Its absurd to be upset that there are ultra rich people, its absurd to be upset about that. You want to get there, raise your family in a way that makes them want to get there, using the advantages that you provide them. It's ridiculous that people of shitty families are upset and think they have a right to change the greatest economy on earth to benefit them and their lazy families. Side note, all that said, it it even actually possible to go from the absolute bottom and make it into the 1% in one life time thanks to america's economic system. Its absurd to think that isnt extremely rare. | ||
