Yeah that argument is ridiculous. While much of the infrastructure whites built was based off of resource extraction, it was still infasstructure. You know what Africa would have if whites hadn't colonized? Nothing. The entire continent would still be getting constantly pillaged by Arab slavers and there would be no infrastructure what so ever. People love to claim how evil whites were in Africa. Yeah, some people may have gone overboard in their disciplining of the natives but that was the price Africa had to pay to be brought into the current era. Ask anyone who works with blacks in a disciplinary setting and they will be the first to tell you that the only thing they respect is firm power.
