In this case it’s compressing because the water has been drained. It used to be a lake. Same problem in New Orleans.

It’s not that people are evil, it’s that they are broken and lack imagination. They are too busy getting revenge for how much their lives suck to notice that it could be made better for everyone.

That’s not putting words in people’s mouths. It’s a rhetorical technique called “reductio ad absurdio” which means to takes an argument to its extreme until it become ridiculous, thereby exposing its flaws.

Because this one caused the genocide of roughly 100,000,000 people who died or were taken.

What you are mentioning is something that happened before there was a Ghana. It was, however, done by countries that existed back then and still exist, and benefited from the system.

UAE exports oil. Dubai is part of UAE.
