Part of it is that it didn't start that way, there was lots of space for both groups without them running over each others toes. However one of the side effects of the colonists coming was modern medicine, which in turn nearly eliminated infant mortality. Black population exploded, because they kept breeding like half their kids wouldn't make it past their first year or two. Same thing happened in a lot of countries, not just in Africa.

Forgive me for saying this but If white people were the best and smartest on the planet why didn't why didn't they establish A fascist ethnostate state Where they could have pushed a eugenics program nobody could have stopped them they were in Africa. Or was it interference from Europe?

This. The UK was outraged at what the Rhodesians called UDI, or Unilateral Declaration of Independence. However, since Rhodesia had their own army and air force, the UK could do nothing about it except push for UN economic sanctions. The sanctions were somewhat porous; Rhodesia traded a lot with South Africa, Portugal, Angola, and Mozambique at the beginning. South Africa provided military support/supplies, as well.

In 1974 there was a revolution in Portugal. The new government was tired of having large numbers of troops in Angola and Mozambique, so they left, granting both countries independence. The newly-independent Angola and Mozambique largely cut off relations with Rhodesia, allowing Rhodesian insurgents to use their countries as bases. In the end, the only external support came from South Africa, and even that support was tepid.

In the end, there was free elections, with Robert Mugabe elected president of Zimbabwe. Things went fairly well for a while, then went downhill fast. White farmers mostly left or were driven off their land, and the new black farmers produced little, not even enough to feed the country, much less export. There was famine or near-famine in Zimbabwe for a while, and the Zimbabwean dollar inflated to Weimar Germany proportions.

While Mugabe's replacement has encouraged white farmers to return, doubt many have returned. From what I know, the Zimbabwean dollar is still rather useless, with US dollars and other hard currencies used.

They didn't even try because it never would have worked. Quite a few Nazis fled to South Africa after the war so I'm sure someone there considered it, but they didn't do it for obvious reasons. Such as, the whites were a single digit percentage of the population in a handful of majority black nations, on a whole continent of black people. A fascist whites only ethnostate would certainly have pissed off all the blacks in their country and the neighboring ones. Even in the current timeline when the whites DIDN'T do that, enough black people still disliked the whites that the whites were ran out of Rhodesia and are in the process of being ran out of South Africa.

A white ethnostate in Africa was and is a losing proposition by numbers alone unless they could somehow become a quarter or a third of the population in a short period of time.

And yes the Rhodesians were smarter and had better tech but that only goes so far, at a certain point they were simply overwhelmed by sheer numbers. Same thing happened to WW2 Germany, they arguably had the most advanced military tech in the world and they lost because they literally did not have enough manpower to hold off everyone else.

that's what Zelensky wants you to think, but he's smarter than that

47 levels deep beneath the catacombs of K**v, he's forming the true kievan Oziv battalion to destroy the pretender muscovite glowop Azov battalion and reclaim not just donbass, crimea but also the don-kuban region and form Greater Ukranny

Will he give us the Gene Seed after he reclaims Mariople and lead us to reclaim the stars after that?

Meh. I'd bet he would be. People have a strong ability to compartmentalize. It's led to more than one person being falsely accused of murdering a friend or family because they were able to keep it together in public instead of behaving how the cops expected someone grieving to behave.

And it's not for lack of trying either given they tried to get a few helicopters through, and there was that incident where a ship apparently tried to reach it a few days ago. Sure they could try a bit more, but Ukraine's kind of short on the proverbial good money to throw after bad at the moment.


Anyways, as for the gas attack, I ran across this on imgur. Namely someone who while looking for confirmation about the gas attack, found a bunch of different twitter accounts making the same tweet as though it was their own. Make of it what you will.

They could get there if they were just gifted a few A-10s. You know some motherfucker is looking at the Russian convoys with their mouth watering. They've probably already rigged up an A-10 to play the following if they were allowed to strafe the convoy.

Europeans are a joke anyway. Europe is populated by descendants of virgins that were fine with kings and dictators telling them what to do. America is populated by the descendants of chad political extremists and chad religious schizos that were kicked out of Europe for not bowing to the government.

And as long as that obstinate "fuck you" spirit still lives in America, I will not consider my country totally lost.
