Agreed mateWe rightly call out depraved high-level corruption in the DRC, and also throw around plenty of jokes about paper bags and stuff. Calling out bullshit is good. Humor is good.
But just as a more serious take on the issue and really understanding just how pervasive corruption is and how ingrained into the normal way of doing things, this article was really insightful.
- Essentially, a young customs worker tried to do the right thing and refuse bribes, and he was killed.
We've been through shit with this saga. But I do hope that the silver lining on our stormcloud of stubbornly sticking to the rules is that it does actually create an opening for DRC to start moving towards a more accountable system that actually benefits its citizens, rather than fueling more corruption.
For me, its one of the possible benefits of a deal with KoKo. They may be playing hardball on price, but the deal will absolutely have to be squeqky clean. And with Gates backing the company there is at least some board level guidance from someone who has genuinely put his money where his mouth is to help people in Africa.

AI is completely based on the crap in gives crap out principle, you can't blame AI for that.Enough of the AI shite.
All it does is regurgitate stuff from the interwebs. It doesn't know anything.
In fact, as people post the results of their AI searches,AI engines pick that up too until they disappear up their own arses.
All the AI crap posted is just making up more incorrect speculation.
