Namibia consistently ranks as the top country in Africa regarding press freedom and has been a stable democracy ever since being freed from colonial rule by South Africa.
(South Africa had a mandate over Namibia I mean, the Apartheid fucks attempted to implement Apartheid there, not free the country).
There’s still issues with women’s rights and those of sexual minorities, as well as various indigenous groups being marginalised and having poor socio-economic status (notably San) but overall that’s more of a function of where the country came from, and not where it’s going.
You should be exactly as ashamed of being behind Namibia in press freedom as you’re ashamed of being behind Germany. Also, that your former colonies fare much, much worse. Git gud. And you can find solace in the fact that the UK ranks below you.
Thank you, that guy is so bigoted he didn’t realize I was calling him out.
