Original Note:
An electricity-generating stone was not found in Congo, as this is not physically possible. It is also a misnomer to claim that the "western world" is killing Congolese. Western countries have not been involved in a war in the Congo in over 50 years. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/01/30/fact-check-false-claim-rocks-electric-charge-found-congo/11129541002/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_the_Democratic_Republic_of_the_Congo
