Religion has nothing to do with it. This is about imperialism, both old school and new school.

📺 Africa isn’t underdeveloped; it’s overexploited.

Religion is a red herring, just as it was during the War on Terror. Imperialist states, corporate media, and imperial core non-profits (which are funded by those same states & corporations), will always spin narratives to manufacture our consent, or if not our consent then at least our acquiescence or apathy. Real media literacy takes some effort.

Also, fun fact, the Islamic State is a product of the the US (as well as the UK and Israel). We’ve been funding, arming, and advising Salafi Jihad terrorist cells since at least the first Afghan war, when we funded Osama bin Laden to stir trouble at the USSR’s border.
