Are We Even Better Than The People We Criticize? by Stephen0mozzy: 9:13pm On Mar 01, 2023
Trying to click on any thread on Nairaland before the election, now and probably even long after now; and you can easily smell the awful stench of illiteracy and myopia that is the mantra of the average 'Nigerian youth'; we all claim to be ready, we all claim to be wiser than "the old cargos" yet, we are probably even worse off than them.

We hate ourselves simply because we will not be patient enough to understand the next person. Armed by the mask of the internet, we call fire and brimestone on people who disagree with ours stance; and when we can confirm the tribe the person is from, we latch on to that like some breakthrough, and attack everything that the tribe stands for, scouring all areas of the internet for true and fake news just to soil the tribe.

Our 'politrickians' are there today because they are quite fluent in expression to a degree that they are able to keep ya'll busy with things. But supposed youths that we claim we are....the hope of tomorrow we preach to ourselves, the reformers, we cannot even hold a conversation with one another without resorting to hate speech.

If some tribes in our country were big enough, they would have been more racist and dehumanizing than the colonial masters.

Obviously, bad leadership is a monster we make, each time we put down our brains, and let the tinniest thing that separates us become the national issue by which we join the oppressors to oppress the oppressed only because it relieves us slightly of our own oppression by the oppressors.

phew!

Nigeria is still our home, at least for about 200million plus of us.
