>Nah, the real blackcel ideology is afropessimism
Yeah. The thing about Fanon is that he was anti-colonialist but also anti-traditionalist because of internal reactionary traditions of tribal chiefs and feudal lords. That's very 1960s, Marxist-influenced stuff. Afropessimism emerged later in the 1980s and today has really fed into these Sahelian juntas if someone wants a practical example. The ideology is very un-self-critical and basically the West (in their case France in particular) is just ontologically bad and hates black people almost down to the level of their DNA, and the West is to blame for all the problems. It can sound rebellious (and it is, in a way) and Western leftists will go gaga over these guys because they shit on the West and try to LARP like Thomas Sankara but it's not the same thing.
I don't know what Fanon would think about them, but the idea of being ruled by some jumped-up paratroopers is basically a modernized version of rule by traditional military chiefs which is a tradition that predated French colonialism and is deeply rooted.
