To me, it sounds like you have a deluded, idealistic idea that Christians are helping, when they are not, like this part
Missionary work is already a faliure because it is imposing foreign culture and religion on other people.
And Uganda missionary work is especially notorious as a failure because Christians are spreading hate as well as bigotry there forcing their primitive worldviews on Ugandans

These are all just regular people. Doing regular Christian things.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
