Revolutionary peoples assimilate modern technology at extraordinary speed

Evidence

But the revolution triumphs and everything changes. A devouring thirst for knowledge invades the entire population, whether in the new nation or in the liberated territories of a nation in revolt. And because of this, Fanon states: “The people who take their destiny into their own hands assimilate the most modern forms of technology at an extraordinary rate.” As in China, in Cuba, in Korea, as with all the oppressed peoples of Latin America, of Asia, of Africa, the revolution is civilization. — Frantz Fanon, A Dying Colonialism, 26
