This is an incredibly racist and supremely ignorant comment, displaying the same justifications that fuelled the colonialism in Africa hundreds of years ago that is still at the root of deeply systemic problems in that continent.
Your comment is abhorrently condescending and shallow. Yes, you have highlighted a historic atrocity and grievance of the region - why is this a reason why the west shouldn't try to help these people? In your mind, are the people of the DRC "beyond" help? That's an awfully charged and deconstructive opinion my friend.
That other people agree with you with downvoting my comment makes me extremely disappointed in the level of discourse here on HN.
It was nice "discoursing" with you :)
To have a conversation you have to get past those labels.
In fairness your discourse made conversation impossible. Reflect and rebound.
