Could it be that this coupdemic going on in Africa since like forever, I mean, after the colonies, is caused by the simple fact that Africa being Africa, gotta be ruled by the guy with the largest stick, thus the military nowadays, not the guy who was elected by the people without big sticks, just like it always fuckin' was?

Yeah, kinda. These continuous tribal wars were used as one of the justifications for the colonization in the 19th century. So not so strange that they came back when we left. Russia is doing some coupy coups as well right now. They'll just lose money and embarrass themselves, as they just killed the only ones who read Joseph Conrad.

Aren't you living in what's basically Africa? Or still barely north or Rome?

nostr:npub1uhyp2jpp5gwjqh7w52tlapdwssmycmxglw2dzavy3mas3sfr83rsv6y4d5 it's effectively Rome (look up Bracciano on Google Maps or something), so pretty much the frontier of the land of the savages, but since it's a small "bigoted" town, it isn't all that bad. Just 3 days ago the local cops banished a migrant trying to peddle Chinese socks on the sidewalk, so there's that 🤣
