Any of you guys been to the really bad African countries? Like Sudan, DRC, Somalia, Chad, CAR, etc? How bad is it actually? Could a white guy realistically visit there without severe risk?
>>2867857Insane risk, some of these are even fucking active warzones.You will needed to be escorted by someone armed and you will need a fixer to navigate all the corruption. Just go to the countries with established safe tourism. The armed guards will be discretely out of view, you'll have some semblance of freedom and you're far less likely to catch beaver fever on the first day. You're not going to be seeing the "real africa" being escorted everywhere by armed guards anyway.
>>2867857Never been, but afaik:>DRC is ok to visit around the capital>Somaliland is possible (even teaching jobs advertised there)Interior Congo afaik is doable, but it's just paypig city central, with bribes at every point.CAR is utterly lawless.The North of Sudan could be possible if the Egyptian crossing is opening, around Wadi Haifa and stuff. Chad not too sure.
My father has when he worked in oil and gas. He wasn't even allowed to leave the compound without an armed security detail.
Sudan was totally chill up until 2019, I remember following the blog of a cute German bikepacker girl who would camp by the roadside and hang out with. I’ll be keeping an eye on the situation there, it’s meant to have the world’s best coral reefs
>>2870789That would have been for insurance reasons. Which standards clearly do not reflect reality.
>>2870856It's because oil workers and other foreigners working for hated foreign corporations have been kidnapped for ransom on numerous occasions.>>2867858You could also JBB (Just Be Black).
>>2867857>DRCbeen multiple timesmostly as kraut researcher working in the east (near Lake Kivu)we actually have contact to m23 as our main base is in their controlled territorygot official papers, but every time I get stopped I show them cute images of the animals I research on and they let us go kek>How bad is it actually? Could a white guy realistically visit there without severe risk?really depends on where you want to goGenerally I would avoid terrorist areas, they'll just kill you...DRC is mostly fineas long as you speak French!!!and avoid the active conflict areasno clue about the othersthough if you feel it, I can really recommend the DRCthe Congo Basin is (imo) the most incredible place in the worldmy current travel maxim>everything at or below the equator is fineand these also tend to be the places that are the most worth to travel tono clue why you'd want to go to e.g. Chad or Somalia, just generally boring countries in every dimension
>>2867857Black neighborhoods in the US aren't even safe. You want to go to a black country?
>>2867857They’re insanely corrupt and dysfunctional places. With a guide you will probably be ok, but going alone will put you at huge risk of being kidnapped and held for ransom. White foreigners like you are very very likely to get extorted by the locals and government.
>>2875276There are plenty of African countries that are perfectly fine. OP simply listed the worst ones.
>>2867859>CAR is utterly lawlessI just looked into CAR a bit. Its truly crazy how they live there. Its so much different than life in the civilized world. I cant even imagine what life is like there. Life in europe has a lot of cons but i would never trade it for something like that. Its truly crazy how resource rich that country is but is one of the poorest in the world. The stupidity of a black man is astounding. For all those centuries they arent able to do something good for themselves as a whole group. Thinking only short term, and only in terms of violence. Its easy to blame corporations for exploiting them and i do blame them but they are also to blame for letting themselves to be exploited. If they cared about eachother and if they stopped to think for just a second they would be able to do some good for themselves. They dont seem to be able to organize themselves. They would sell their mom for a pack of cigs. They have no loyalty, no intelligence, no integrity, no skills and no ethics.Truly crazy continent
>>2875372they're landlocked and they have fuck-all for infastructureI got friends from Chad/CAR and he says its not that bad. he's black and speaks french and arabic tho.
>>2867857I watched Blood Diamond yesterday so I can tell you it's pretty bad over there
>>2875325>There are plenty of African countries that are perfectly fineExamples pls
>>2877048BotswanaNamibiaRwandaSenegal
>>2867857You just need to hire some local mercenaries as bodyguards. Set up payment so that they will only get their big payout after you get home alive.But why would you want to go? You can fuck all the African kweens you want in The Gambia and the worst risk you'll face is AIDS.
>>2877197>SenegalBasically as bad as India when talking about shitting in the streets. It's a "fecally contaminated environment" and you WILL get sick there.
>>2881020India is kino
>>2867857In which country is it easiest to get your sausage wet as a white guy?
>>2881035depends on your attributes. are you rich, are you twink, are you beta, etc
>>2881035South Africa
>>2867857They will think that you can't be stupid enough to be a tourist and are there for work and kidnap you for ransom
>>2881035Probably Kenya. I had women actually waiting outside my apartment day and night just because I was the only white dude around at the moment. Lol.
>>2881124Does this also work if you are Chinese?
>>2876801I will never get tired of this movie. IIRC it was actually filmed in Mozambique. >>2881020I've been to Senegal 3 times, never got sick. Even swam in the rivers and drank tap water a couple times.
>>2881191next you should watch Hotel Rwanda and then Gorillas in the Mist
>>2881085Nta but Imma slavic twink/ish guy ?What about me ?
>>2881149Asians aren't popular and face discrimination. Africans view Asians—including Koreans and Japanese—as racially inferior to themselves.
>>2881469>mateguarding blackcel fears the yellow chad
>>2871881The EFF are living proof that JBB isn't enough even in "safe" African countries.Arguably it's worse because rather than try to ransom you they'll just assume you're another African and rape/torture/kill you instead. >>2876801>>2875276Sierra Leone has a lower violent crime rate than the USA iirc, it's around 2/100k, so there is that. I suspect reporting might not be too good though.
