there’s been literally TRILLIONS of dollars of foreign aid poured into africa over decades with nothing to show for it. all those people are now worse off than they were before
but mrbeast gets his views and money so he’s happy
MrBeast shows his BIGGEST charity project yet, spending over $10 MILLION to build an entire VILLAGE designed to help kids attend school instead of being forced into child labor 👀🔥
The village includes a SCHOOL, community center, library, medical center, farm, playground, sports fields and HOUSES FOR TEACHERS 🤯
@JohnVandivier Effective is always contingent on the goal
Saving a life for $100 is ineffective if the goal is not saving lives
Most EA causes may be altruists but they never have the intended effect since they rarely account for second or higher order consequences
Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi have adopted their second child, @People reports.
They welcomed their first child through adoption back in August 2025.
once you start learning about African history you realize that colonialism has been the genuine best thing to ever happen to the whole continent
on the other hand, decolonization and independence has been an unspeakable catastrophe
Never forget that the Europeans found unfathomable horrors as they colonized Africa, and took the pains necessary to stop those horrors out
For that great service, they were damned by Liberal opinion, which thought it was mean that they paternalistically prevented cannibalism and the like, and enforced that at bayonet point
Thus, decolonization eventually resulted, and so the primordial horrors they had fought so hard to end have been creeping back bit by bit, all in the name of pretending equality exists
Such a tragedy, and a waste
