Fact remains, the study claimed that diversity is making them poor. If it makes them poor, then it would also make others poor too. The implication is that different areas of the world should be ethnically cleansing their regions by sending everyone home.

Yes, the Chinese are not given to being SJWs and worrying about things like slavery, female genital mutilation, child marriage, rape, and the other things that aren't so wonderful about many African cultures.
Of course, the Chinese don't care one whit about the environment either, and I can see the farmers being cool with that because now they can kill any of the local wildlife that happens to threaten their livelihood. People don't get that Cecil was not a big deal in Africa.
As bad as it is those are African problems to solve don't you think??.. could we even stomach a whiff of foreign intervention into our own muck-ups??..I think not.

You know the place is a crap hole when China is outsourcing there.

Do you think they would solve them faster if the rest of the world condemned human rights abuses or if the Chinese came along and provided all of their markets endless access no questions asked?

Maybe maybe not, but lets remove the mote from our own eyes first, this is exactly the kind of thinking that got us involve all over the world, and use as an excuse to extract raw wealth for that continent, Africans have heard that song before.."white man's Burden" when they in fact often excerbate problems rather than solve them, there are counter forces on the ground I say let em tackle their problems as we tackle ours, they are not children.

All right. Let's assume we completely divest ourselves from Africa.
Will China take up the work of plague duty during the next Ebola outbreak? Will they nurse Africans through their AIDS epidemic? When the next famine hits and we see photos of starving children, will those be broadcast on Chinese TV for the CHinese people to donate money, food, and supplies for?
Or will we still be expected to handle those things, along with our regular disbursements of foreign aid? Just you don't think want we should tell them anything about what we'd like to see in return?

Tread carefully.
you may run into the hidden data of worldwide IQ scores and that a large part of IQ is genetic. a minimum average IQ of 90 is needed for democracy to function.
Anyone who talks about the data is a racist, and anyone who publishes the data is fired from their post/job.
perhaps 50 years from now the data will be considered and policy changes will be based on this data but it is dangerous to speak of it as of now.
