That's a cool video showing how the Congo was viciously raped and cheated out of being the jewel of Africa.
Around 1900 more than 10 million were killed. After Belgium got out in 1960 they left them with less than 30 university graduates. After trying to kill their democratically elected leader the United States and the West supported the person who eventually did: Mobutu Sese Seko.
It's interesting how the people who "cared" so much about the Libyans would mock Gaddafi for calling himself the "King of Kings of Africa" when U.S.-allied dictator Mobutu's full name meant "The all-powerful warrior who, because of his endurance and inflexible will to win, goes from conquest to conquest, leaving fire in his wake."
So after 30 years of supporting a kleptocratic parasite who bled his country dry of any potential it could have possibly had the Congo has a war which costs more lives than any other conflict since World War II. While the U.S. gets its rich buddies to gang rape two peasant nations on a hateful mission of revenge poor countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan, Uruguay, India and Nepal contribute the bulk of the troops to the UN mission to the country.
Just fucking look at it:

Whenever I see the Congo as the last in anything like the Human Development Index or in this video and it's just dismissed like it's nothing part of me just wants it all to burn a little more.

there's someone in this very thread airing entirely different criticisms, all of them reactionary

it's enough of a mistake to justify, if not require, write out some words to organize your thoughts, and perhaps even posting them on a blog if you're so inclined
ahhh takes me back to a more innocent time

lmao I didn't watch that video until someone bumped this thread but I spent like 2 hours picking that visualization apart irl a month ago and you're an idiot if you think it means anything significant other than rising inequality. lol @ 1948... "look how unequal everything is!!!! awful!!!" ff 2 present day "wow!!! look how great this is!!!!" *chart reflects more inequality than in 1948*
Okay, nice strawman. Things are more "unequal" now, perhaps, but they're unequal in a fairer way. Sorry I don't buy into your loaded rights-based terminology.
