Working with a completely uneducated and 80% rural black population, Rhodesia did the best they could to include educated blacks/Africans within their society as well as try to survive the horrid sanctions and bloody bush/border wars that were raging on.

>Idiot

The man has managed to stay in power for a ridiculously long time so he's probably doing something right.

Here is some recommended reading

If you don't understand why a horribly sanctioned country has problems producing a high GDP you might be fucking retarded.

Mugabe please go.

>pants on head retarded posts gdp per capita in an african nation where 5-10% of the population is white and owns 90-95% of everything whilst the rest are straight up deadweight slaves, subclass & sub human "citizens"

fucking retard

>>1726845
its a good metric for measuring relative points of internal progress against the rest of the world but comparing it raw to externalities is pants on head

I'm not here to apologize for Mugabe. What I am trying to point out is that to be the dictator of a country since 1980 takes a lot of politicking and alliance building. Was all of this done of the greater good of the country, obviously no. Did it benefit him and allow him to enrich himself and retain power for decades, yes. If he was an idiot, he would have been overthrown already.

>mugabe apologist tries to defend himself once again
In a country where basically everyone has zero education, zero access to food, and zero motivation; all he has to do is throw a breadcrumb for power.
He isn't smart at all. He has completely and totally failed as a statesman, your position is indefensible.
Mugabe.
Pls.
Go.

>Mugabe apologist

Are you illiterate? Mugabe is a "good dictator" in the sense that he has the political acumen to retain power for decades but as a result, means he only needs to keep a small powerbase happy at the expense of everyone else.

Just because he's good at staying in power doesn't mean he's good for the country.

Ah yes, high GDP is an indicator of many great 1st world nations such as Brazil, Saudi Arabia, India and China.
