    Most of the people around you are morons habituted by lots of training like animals to do increasingly sophisticated tasks correctly like trained animals while most of the facts are just drilled into their heads not arrived at organically or intelligently. Take away that training and they would obviously be morons to you. Let the morons raise other morons and it would be increasingly obvious.

    DRC citizens aren’t inherently any dumber than Americans or French people. They are just average people without the beneficial effects of society possibly with some environmental poisoning and malnutrition. If we could actually help instead of pretending to help and exploit them they could be peers.
