I'm pretty sure national geographic "jumped the shark" at least five years ago. I don't understand why they are still in the news.

‘national geographic’ is an enemy.

No agriculture, no animal husbandry, no wheel, no irrigation, no written language, no math, no metals, no trade, no abstract thought, literally just wandering Hunter gatherers and mud huts everywhere south of the Sahara.

All of this while literally sitting on the piles of world's most scare resources.
I can't believe how everyone skips the fsct that in wakanda all the technology was ALIEN and not invented in any ways by Wakandands(?). And they actually need magic to run it. Bitch, please... If i was black id totally annoyed by this film. Nothing to celebrate here..

That's not entirely fair. They also have tin shanties and other various refuse-based shacks.

Fuck Susan Goldberg. National geographic was always careful and respectful in the way they introduced foreign cultures. Maybe they had gourds and on their dicks and saggy chalky breasts but that was the raw unfiltered human element. Without and overlying jewish narrative to drive home it was simply a depiction of how people lived.
That being said this is just the last nail in the coffin. National geographic has been in steep decline for years. Perhaps not as quickly as their television station, but not much better.

Jews and their liberal fantasies. Its creepy, backward and pathetic. It is mental illness from all of the inbreeding

The civilization that "could've been". Yeah, but it's not. So shut the fuck up and get a job.

So what I don't understand is how a super rare mineral that is "over powered" means that you can make futuristic technology and be super wealthy? Like Africa already has an insane amount of diamonds which is the most valuable mineral but they're still a giant shithole continent.

diamonds which is the most valuable mineral but they're still a giant shithole continent.
Artificially valuable
"aren't all valuable things artificially valuable?"
I mean, in terms of purpose they serve. Diamond tools would likely use lab made diamonds due to a lack of imperfections.

Exactly. Technological advancement is dependent on societal infrastructure. If you can't maintain a cohesive civilization FIRST, you won't make technological progress past a certain point. Magical rocks won't change this fact.

They have a real mineral like that called coltan.
