Why do people ignore the fact that Arabs grew up in a similar environment (actually worse but I won't get into that) than Africans but managed to figure out how utilize their vast reserves of natural oil to make themselves wealthy? Why can't the Africans figure it out?

Arabs = cold = superior intelligence

>actually worse
Source on this?

What Arabs by the way?

North Africans (except for Egypt) barely made it to the Neolithic despite living in fertile lands, and were semi nomadic with no monumental architecture, while Europeans had bronze age civilization around the same time, despite being more isolated geographically

>despite being more isolated geographically

Greece is probably the least isolated place one can imagine

Because jungles are full of wild predators, deadly diseases, extreme weather, poor soil and dangerous winding rivers.

Again? /his/ is worst than /pol/.
Obsessed.

Obsessed with what exactly? Proving leftists wrong?

>Why can't the Africans figure it out?
It's not about "figuring it out". History isn't a linear path towards technological and economic progress, and societies without an incentive won't do shit (for good reason).

>Interesting that the Hadza, tutored by life and not by anthropology, reject the neolithic revolution in order to keep their leisure. Although surrounded by cultivators, they have until recently refused to take up agriculture themselves, "mainly on the grounds that this would involve too much hard work." In this they are like the Bushmen, who respond to the neolithic question with another : "Why should we plant, when there are so many mongomongo nuts in the world?"
>The Bushman figures imply that one man's labor in hunting and gathering will support four or five people. Taken at face value, Bushman food collecting is more efficient than French farming in the period up to World War II, when more than 20 percent of the population were engaged in feeding the rest. Confessedly, the comparison is misleading, but not as misleading as it is astonishing. In the total population of free-ranging Bushmen contacted by Lee, 61.3 percent (152 of 248) were effective food producers; the remainder were too young or too old to contribute importantly. In the particular camp under scrutiny, 65 percent were "effectives." Thus the ratio of food producers to the general population is actually 3:5 or 2:3. But, these 65 percent of the people "worked 36 percent of the time, and 35 percent of the people did not work at all'".

Of course, this is an infimum part of africa used to make a point.

Arabs lived on the Mediterranean with the best soil.

Blacks didnt, come on step up your game.

How dumb are you exactly?

Arabs were basically nomadic goat fuckers before Phoenicians and Romans educated them

They did that in the 1930's with a lot of help from the UK and the US.

I feel that Africa is this tough nut to crack and we all can't agree on why Africa is so fucked up with both sides presenting convincing arguments supporting their point, sort of like how a private detective is kept up at night by The-One-That-Got-Away like in a Mickey Spillane novel
>>
>>3223270
How many Africa threads did you open today? 4? And which each one you manage to get dumber than the one before.

>>3223270
Arabs are also subhuman retards that took everything they are known for from indo-European peoples
>>
>>3224779
False, you fucking retard, those subhumans copied Egyptians, Phoenicians and Sumero-Akkadians
>>
>>3224779
Indoeuropeans stole everything from Old European civilizations, Old Middle East (Hatti, Elam, etc) and Harappa / Mohenjo Daro

>/his/ actually believes this

>>3223270
Silk road, Anal religion and diversity.

>>3223270
Do you know how fucked up and broken your typical Arab nation's economy, culture, and politics are? It's hardly an upgrade.
>>
>>3223270
wow... two of these thrads? it's a fucking invasion

dumbest post so far

Second Africa post today.

>>3224683
Phoenicians and Romans did shit for the Arabs. And there were already wealthy arab states in Yemen before they came along.
>>
>>3225559
Most of the gulf states economically are some of the richest in the world. And while their values are in fact abhorrent, it's for them to figure that out and improve, not for us to say that they are inferior. All civilizations progress and regress at their own rates. Jut because Europeans and certain groups of Asians got there faster does not make them superior.
