He made up the alleged "Rwanda genocide", but it was for the greater good I guess...

Hope he sees this bro

I guess that's that, Kagame truly is the greatest African leader to ever exist (even though no one will give context on what his achievements even are)

>>18470496
His achievements? Innumerable. His accomplishments? Uncountable. Between his time guiding the people he finds time to enlighten them for his wisdom has even reached the white man where he has been invited to prestigious universities like Harvard so he may teach the whites his ways; His Excellency obliges because he is not only generous to the Rwandan people but he is generous to whole world.

Ended the Rwandan genocide. Turned Rwanda into a relatively prosperous country and the most popular tourist destination for its region despite being tiny and landlocked. Did so by using proxies to extract resources from neighbouring Congo, making him the great modern African neocolonialist.

>Turned Rwanda into a relatively prosperous country
How much lifting is "relatively" doing in this sentence?

>>18471674
A lot. Rwanda is still a bottom 20% poorest nation on earth, but all of its neighbours are even more poor. Rwanda's economy is also growing much faster than its neighbours. Given the fact that Kagame ascended to power in a little landlocked east African nation in the midst of a genocide, I think what he's done is very impressive.

>>18471674
It's better than India

I never understand where "great men" come from, Kagame might not make his nation the next USA but he will truly be their Bismarck or their FDR, and that is something I don't understand, why are great men so rare? The usa has only had FDR and then a complete gap of boring suit and tie snakes until Trump. I don't like Trump, I am a Communist, but you gotta admit he is a "great man" transforming the USA into his image and executing his every desire. The Communists have an even worse drought of "great men", we had Stalin and literally no one else after him, every single other Communist leader has been a complete nothing burger and even traitor to Communism. I don't count Deng Xiaoping because he was a Capitalist, he is absolutely a "great man" but not a Commie great mean.

I simply don't understand why are great men so fucking rare. There are almost a hundred Napoleons and despite all sharing the original's blood none have even been able to fill 1% of his shoes. The same for Bismarck and his descendants.

Kagame is the only African leader I have actually seen on the internet and tv and not because of some collapse, quite the contrary, whenever he makes international news it is because of him achieving something great for his nation and being a genius. How? How does one raise a son to be a great man? Why are there so few of them?

I'm quite fond of Bukele (for great leaders of today), I think he deserves top 5 and there is a lot that can be learned from what he did in El Salvador. Proof that authoritarian regimes is what SA needs, its obvious democracy isn't going to work when criminal organizations are so deeply embedded in all areas of society

>>18471879
if they weren't rare would they really be great? it'd be a different world. Also Xi Jingpingding is considered great surely and to some Putin. It takes an enormous amount of effort and circumstance, bordering on destiny in order to have things line up to accomplish truly great things. Look up Bukele from El Salvador if you're not familiar with his accomplishments

>>18471885
Bukele is probably doing the best he can in his position. It's still agonizing to watch Latin America as a whole be torn up by the drug trade when the solution is so obvious. Legalize cocaine throughout the americas and the number of people being funky towned immediately drops by 90%

>>18471904
Bukele legalized cocaine?

>>18471902
another I had on my mind but I couldn't remember when making that post is Victor Orban of Hungary who is soon to make it possible to be president/prime minister indefinitely, an obvious marker of a great man.

>>18471909
No he threw all of the cocaine traffickers in jail. If cocaine was legalized (across the continent) there would be no traffickers and they would all have to get real jobs.

>>18471910
Got some bad news for you

>>18471904
something more like decriminalization (or extremely low offenses for just drug dealing) but then making violent crimes (especially homicide) in association with drug dealing a huge crime and a major focus for the law could potentially reduce the negative elements of cartels. Make it so they realize its less trouble for them to just sell the drugs and not kill people aswell

>>18471909
no he went hard on arresting potential gangbangers including any guy with a tattoo

>>18471939
shit did they get rid of him? I thought I read that but the last 6 months of my life have become one hell of a blur, thats being a parent I guess

>>18471951
>including any guy with a tattoo
How is Bukele a good leader? That is fucking bullshit and anti freedom, you know half of all White people and specially White women are covered in tattoos?

>>18471961
>anti freedom
You can't have freedom in a country which is infested with violent organized crime.

>>18471961
its an exaggeration homeboy, any guy with a tattoo means any guy with a tattoo that is gang related, in a place like El Salvador he probably had a 90% accuracy rate and this coincided with a massive drop in homicides, the dude is certainly authoritarian but when you're talking about places like South or Central America where they've been in this state of perpetual hell because of the cartels these are the kinds of measures that become necessary, I don't believe in starting wars one bit but if Mexico wanted to make a change I'd be stoked if America joined them in a war on their cartels because long term it could improve our neighbor country that is going to be hopping the border til their shit improves

>>18471972
>America joined them in a war on their cartels

Decriminalize drugs and the cartels collapse. The USA has no interest in ending Mexico's crime problems. A stable Mexico is a threat to America.

>>18471984
stable mexico could mean less border hoppers friendo, could mean higher quality border hoppers. Also knowing cartels decriminalizing won't stop them one bit because they'll still be fighting over territory for who gets to sell, it needs to coincide with massive law enforcement (police state shit temporarily). You saying stable mexico is bad is fed type shit and not the kind I think is healthy to accept

>>18471902
It's not destiny, it's force of will. There are limits to what that can achieve and drawbacks but with enough willpower and you can achieve meaningful and lasting change.

>>18471879
Because there are limits to what the great willpower can achieve without the right circumstances. Kagame in charge of a little militia faction gets merced by a more ruthless yet less effective man and all of that willpower is nothing. Now multiply that millions of times over with every possible coulda been a contender getting snuffed out or distracted by something.

And your talk of blood is ridiculous man. For god's sake you can be aware of all of human history and observe that greatness doesn't carry genetically else we'd still be ruled by the sons of the first Pharaoh of Egypt or the Kings of Babylon. There's no preordained power to blood to allow Napoleon the 3rd to somehow match Napoleon. The Roman's had a string of great emperors and the minute, the very fucking minute, one of them decided to make it genetic rather than adoptive the entire good leadership chain broke.

>>18471987
> You saying stable mexico is bad is fed type shit and not the kind I think is healthy to accept
It’s callous but he’s got a point, look at Chicano social media. They’d try to get the US to cede California and the Southwest to a stable Mexico

>>18471992
>cede california and SW
jeez don't get me too excited, leave me northern california and I could care less

>>18471885
There was also Alberto Fujimaru who was fixing Peru and uplifted Peru economically and cleaned up the cartels of the land. The political landscape as also corrupt so he tried to do away with, but this led to him being charged with corruption himself.

ok but is he ever going to get around to trimming those tall trees the radio was talking about?

People shouldn't have the freedom to get tattoos. You're making everyone else's world uglier, and that should be a crime.
