And the fact that this person clearly thinks that they're smarter and superior to every Haitian when they don't even understand production. Racism is a disease, instead of trying to find the answer to this contradiction they conclude 'because they're African lol' they genuinely believe the 67 IQ lie.

    By the calculation of the Aristide administration in 2004, the French indemnity extracted between $22 and $40 billion from the national treasury.

    By the late nineteenth century, 80 percent of Haiti’s wealth was devoted to serving external debts, first to France and then to financial institutions in Germany — and, most notably, the United States. By the turn of the century, the relatively independent and sovereign Haiti had become entangled in a web of debt held by American financial firms.

      In 2003, Aristide requested that France pay Haiti over US$21 billion in reparations, which he said was the equivalent in today's money Haiti was forced to pay Paris after winning independence from France 200 years ago.

      The United Nations Security Council, of which France is a permanent member, rejected a 26 February 2004, appeal from the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) for international peacekeeping forces to be sent into its member state Haiti, but voted unanimously to send in troops three days later, just hours after Aristide's forced resignation.
