when it comes to africa for example i was taught that they're poor cause their land isn't harvestable or some bullshit like that, and then i find out as an adult it's actually cause western countries fucked the shit out of them and huh that makes a lot more sense
hard work is when you are by sheer luck located closer to 2 continents full of free resources that effectively dectuple your GDP and the only work involved is genociding the Natives who already have a sparser population due to being cut off from the bronze age developments of Afroeurasia
