>But hasn't "Africans being Africans" led pretty much nowhere?
Africans being Africans got interrupted by Europeans being Europeans and now the whole world is enveloped in capitalist extraction hell that’s created sweeping inequality and destruction and bloodshed. The task now is for African governments to stop trying to mimic European ones and opt for an alternative, which we can infer to be socialism given fanon’s other beliefs

>the hypocrisy of the one does not excuse the hypocrisy of the other
This is the philosophy of children and cowards and victims. Violence is not invariably evil, the violence of the oppressor is not the same as the violence of the oppressed. The violence of the slave used to break his chains is not the same as the violence of the slave master. We do not live in a perfect world, this holier than thou fence sitting is the favorite pastime of every impotent liberal who watches indifferently but “with prayers” as fascists kill and steal and consolidate power

>base envy and greed
Projection by whitey onto his victims to justify all manner of atrocities and deprivation of rights, whether or not you mean for it to be. There are a lot of realities you are ignoring by starting from 0 and then doing some categorical imperative bullshit - “now that the world is rigged in my favor you need to get over it and let there be peace” (read: accept permanent subjugation and exploitation)
