Can you also drop an explanation as to why OP deserves to be classified as a mzungu or is your classification automatic?


Don't know where this is going, just thought this website was bringing to light something that isn't discussed, in a very funny way.


It isn't unfunny and tokenism is surely a cross-cultural phenomenon in all of its many forms. I don't believe in PC culture and getting offended, discuss away.

My impression is the guy in the OP is genuinely trying and isn't incompetent. If these guys are capitalizing on the very phenomenon you are lampooning by getting large VC sums injected into an emerging economy robinhood style... wouldn't that be... a good thing?

That's what the blog post is flat out intimating. Perhaps I'm naive.


OP is genuinely trying in an adult version of busing kids to Haiti to build a hut.
