I think they have been soft in my opinion

Stupid propaganda should be stopped

News outlets, do research before giving you the news cause they know you trust them to say the truth

Social media creates an echo chamber, you can watch fox news and be following certain individual in time you will believe redical ideas


Social media company should exercise the right to block and break down such formations, it's no longer funny, we can use the internet to make the world a better place, spreading lies and fake news isn't helping it's just creating divisions and if twitter doesn't act this divisions will become a movement and things like that capitol attack will be an often occurance

Police can only police if we all agree to behave ourselves.

Allowing social media platforms to decide what's true from what's false has ramifications there should be an independent authority overseeing such. Here is a suggestion:

they attacked the capital of the united states

Na ment? Wetin dey do una, we are talking about white privilege, everybody knows that he deserves what he is getting instead of una to focus on why police suddenly became lenient and talk about reforms, you are fighting because of fool was blocked from causing more chaos

Na ment? Dem swear for black man, wetin na

We shouldn't befool ourselves and neglect the fact that despite the white privilege thing the black community is dysfunctional and hyperaggressive coupled with the widespread of guns, meaning that a police officer feels unsafe when he encounters a black person. Trump is not the issue he's the symptom of a disease plaguing USA and those chastising are no different than him only difference is that he choose to be uncultured in approach.
My argument is centered around the double standard of tech giants and their rights of arbitration

Am happy I was not the only one deeply troubled by the coordinated big tech shutdown of trump and parler,alot of people are happy because they hate trump,but this world is conciously walking towards a cooperate oligarchy,10 CEO's can pretty much decide what should dicussed in 90% of the internet used by billions of people,that is a dictatorship,the difference between America and China/ Russia is that censorship is done by 10 men rather than Putin/xi,which is pretty much the same thing

When the political establishment of the left were hounding Trump for electoral fraud and twisting his statements for political gains with half-truths and blatant lies the tech giants who were mostly left leaning see no harm in that but when Trump does the same thing or less he's flagged for it and eventually removed

Haba. Why you come misconstrue my intentions like this?

Nihilistjnr just reminded me of that Reptilian theory. The theory funny die.

Shifo, sorry for misconstruing you

Caveat: I'm just thinking about events and analysing them as I deem fit I may be wrong

nihilistjnr:
That's why I'm not 100% convinced that it's big tech ganging up on Trump. A former US president is still an incredibly powerful person who still has access to the corridors of power. You don't make the kind of moves Twitter and co are making unless you recieve re-assurance that Trumps access to Washington is permanently revoked at every level.

It's not just Big Tech. It's Banks, it's e-Commerce. It's Spotify and Pornhub ffs. Even Bill Belichik announced recently that he's not taking the Presidential Medal of Freedom from Trump(Biden will probably give him it anyway) but this looks way too coordinated.

The Reptilians are making an example of Trump.

It is a coordinated assault most likely because of Trump's battle against the political establishments of Republican and Democrats parties and his American first policy which hurts big businesses with productions plants outside the shores of America.

nihilistjnr:
The way Tech companies are rushing to de-platform and erase Trump from history is very dangerous.
The one that busted my head is Spotify - How did they ban that nigga from Spotify kwa? You mean all his playlists are gone?

This is a huge message to all the other world leaders, right now the public support these decisions because it's Trump, but it could very easily be Boris, or Macron or Merkel in future.

IF this is not a coordinated efforts by the real powers-that-be behind the throne aka 'the Reptilians', and instead is just a gangup by the tech bros of Silicon Valley, then you can expect incoming regulations in the social media space as world leaders realise that wings need to be clipped..fast.

China is laughing at Western countries and their allies like this and others are seeing the danger first-hand. Turkey is about switching to its own platform, India is warming up and the domino effect has set in already as the share price of Twitter has dropped since the last episode.

We shouldn't be selective in our pursuant of Justice in as much as I am against free speech granting tech companies right of arbitration is dangerous because they have biases and holding them accountable will be difficult as they can wriggle themselves out of any legal implication by lobbying and prolonging litigation

afrodoc2:


Reptilians.

Egbon you like quarrel pas fight

donjazet:
I'm just seeing this, my man.
It's the correct thing to do. Seeing the US Capitol building being desecrated like that was gut wrenching. There should be consequences for that.
This should have been done much earlier. Trump has done nothing but use Twitter to terrible effects.
I wholeheartedly support Jack Dorsey's action.

Isn't this criminalization of free speech and tech giants being partisan in this regard because for years now some leaders have been making statements dangerous for peace but they didn't take decisive actions against them? The action taken by the tech giants are Orwellian in nature, it has set a dangerous precedent in the sense that countries with capacity but reluctant to build their platforms will now go ahead to build one and force citizens to sign up. Also, allowing tech giants to unilaterally decide what's right and what's wrong is dangerous for civil conversation because once they don't agree with you even if what you're saying is the truth they will remove your content and suspend your account.

It's clear that NFF have been mad for a long long time...

Btw no wonder Tottenham beat these guys 5-0 yesterday, they've clearly been shït for over. a century.

Why u like quarrel pas fight like dis?

My guy Donjazet what's your view regarding the deplatforming of Trump by Twitter and Facebook, also the removal of Parler by Amazon, and Google?

Lol It's their field of specialization...That others aren't involved doesn't mean they're of no good in their own areas of specialization...Na so small thing dey excite some of una no wonder any politician with small packaging dey easily hoodwink una...

Chief why now?

Ibime:
Sorry, no

Try and read his Incerto that included Fooled by Randomness, Antifragile, Black Swan, The Bed of Procrustes and Skin in The Game. I will recommend you read Black Swan and Fooled by Randomness specifically

Trevor012:
Why are you always predicating everything to Burst? You are always predicating doom in everything.

Too much money chasing little value, the global financial crisis of 2007-2008 should serve as a lesson to investors and the dotcom bubble of early 2000s. The rise in the values of TSLA and BTC are not driven by fundamental growth but by wild speculation.

Ibime:
Tesla is the poster boy for the current market bubble, more than octupling in price in 1 year and with a Price-Earnings ratio 50 times the S&P average. A lot of people will cry when Tesla burst.

My Oga I asked you the other day whether you read Nassim Nicholas Taleb books or not it seems you didn't see it.

QUESTION AND ANSWER WITH DR SHAROF

Questioner: Assalaamu ‘alaykum

Dr Sharof: Wa’alaykumu ssalaam

Questioner: What’s the take of the Sharee’ah on immunization? In addition, is there any hadeeth that can be interpreted as ‘prevention is better than cure’?

Dr Sharof: ‘Prevention is better than cure’ was not reported in any hadeeth but it is a proverb in every language; (it is) Al-wiqaayatu khayrun minal ‘ilaaj (in Arabic), it was not reported in any hadeeth. However, if the statements of some ahadeeth are considered, you will notice that things having its meaning are apparent. Things having its meaning are apparent. For example, the Prophet, sollaLloohu ‘alayhi wa sallam, declared that if you eat (something greasy) then you should wash your hands before going to sleep and if any harm comes to you for not washing it you only have yourself to blame. So this comes under ‘Prevention is better than Cure’. The statement of the Prophet that says you should run away from the leper as one runs away from a lion also comes under it. There are many of such ahadeeth if one wishes to compile it.

There is nothing that contradicts the Sharee’ah in immunization. This is because it is from seeking protection from an evil instead of seeking solution after being befallen by the evil. There is nothing bad in it except if true findings show that it has harm on one. If it has harm on one’s (body) then the Sharee’ah says ‘Ad-dararu yuzal (harms must be eliminated)’. If there are benefits and harms in it and the harms outweigh the benefits, then the Sharee’ah will not allow it. It requires findings and not hearsays. Truly, the administration of vaccines once caused polio among children in Niger but it was declared that they administered it wrongly. But we have seen the opposite of this among people administering it these days; Allaah has used it to prevent them from polio. That’s it. Whoever asks us to refrain from it will prove with strong findings (that it is harmful), then we will say according to the Sharee’ah, Islaam eliminates whatever will harm us. Na’am!

Oasis007, Lana1, AfroDoc I greet you guys in peace

Callum Hudson-Odoi’s 2020/21 season so far:

Premier League starts - 2
Goals - 2
Assists - 1

Champions League starts - 3
Goals - 2

A goal contribution every 110 minutes. Chelsea’s most in form attacker.


Should Callum Hudson-Odoi be given more starts or should he be coming from bench?

Ibime:
He only holds positions in 3 or 4 coørrency pairs at a time which shows specialty knowledge of individual currencies behaviour, unlike others who may hold 20 or 30 stocks at a time and exposed to market risk or systemic black swan events. He is actually trading pairs against each other so less exposed to market risk, for example if dollar crash, he'll just short it against Aussie dollar etc. One shouldn't crack their brain doing something when you can just invest in someone who does it better.

The bolded caught my attention, are you a reader of Nassim Nicholas Taleb?

This team lack character and conviction we were neither here nor there, Kante was getting dragged out of position steadily by Gundogan dribbles and Sterling's change of pace. Starting a half-fit Ziyech was a tactical blunder from Lampard against Pep who will seek to exploit any vulnerability, also Kovacic and Azpi were exposed due to the ineffective combination down the right flank Mount was the only one trying in that Midfield. Pulisic was just dribbling instead of QuickTime release. Service delivery to Werner was non-existent. Havertz showed what he's capable of doing likewise Gilmour and Hudson-Odoi.

MaziAlaye:
Imagine comparing Benzema to Giroud lol... Omo Nairaland dey encourage plenty misyarns cha

Sarcasm is lost on you, well you're truly acting according to your moniker.

Tactical Preview
Mendy
AzpillicuetaZouma Silva Chillwell
Kante Jorginho Mount
Odoi Abraham Pulisic


There is no point having large possession against ManCity we should cede the possession and hit them via counter attack s with the directness of Pulisic and Odoi while Abraham acting as the focal point in attack to press ManCity when they are in build up phase. Kante and Mount should provide defensive cover for Azpi and Chillwell who will be facing Sterling and Bernardo Silva with Cancelo and Mendy. Jorginho to supply the forward players with one-time forward passes whenever we win the ball in our half to catch City off guard. We should try and limit City to crosses and long range shots and avoid cutbacks. Ziyech, Havertz and Werner can come in during Second half to complete the damage.
Prediction a 2-1 win in favour of Chelsea

Funny how Benzema said he was "F1 quality" and called Giroud a "Go-kart" but in that same year Giroud scored the same amount of goals as Benzema did in less games..

Just as Kai was just coming to terms with the Premier League and he had some really good performances with us he got Covid and he had Covid quite severely as I think people are really starting to open up about now," Lampard told reporters ahead of a home match with Manchester City on Sunday.

"I have read a few things recently about how much people can suffer with it now. Some people are asymptomatic. He definitely has had a bit of a fallout with that physically and I speak with him a lot and we know that. It is something we are trying to help him to deal with.

"Yeah, the expectation around him you have to put context into the story. Kai’s talent is undoubted. I see that every day. Giving him the time to adapt to the Premier League and to our team is crucial.

"We have seen players come here in the past, didn’t really adapt, went elsewhere and come back to the Premier League and absolutely lit it up to unbelievable levels. I am not trying to compare Kai directly with that but there are so many stories across the Premier League, not just Chelsea.
