Didn't you hear? The Wakanda starships would be on their way to Alpha Centari by now if it wasn’t for those darn colonialists and their fancy flush toilets!
Not everyone everywhere was treated horribly. Southern parts of Africa were generally better. Also brutal slavery was not new to the continent when Europeans arrived. We judge these past events in an insane manner, assigning blame to people as if anything can be done about it. Idiots acting as if whitey should go back in a time machine and fix it. Even if they did so, Africa would be worse off now. If I had a time machine and could prevent all outside interference in the historical progression of Africa, modern Africans might ask me not to.
Colonization brought Africa out of the Stone Age.

Slavery was the worst thing to happen to white people.
True, but they were treated pretty horribly. I'd rather live free in the stone age than be a slave in a diamond mine
