I am in the woman camp, and I fully endorse the post below and posts of Stephen0mozzy above. Stephen0mozzy:The below is to support the team.

bemeruca:You men said the same things about "feminism that brought about women's rights to vote and many good things" that you are now saying about "modern-day feminism". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifeminism |
bemeruca:Yes, it is true. The misogyny that was destroyed by feminism could not have been allowed to continue as it was considering the strength women discovered they have when social media gave us all voices. |
I'm often amused at those complaining about migrants invading UK when the truth is UK is begging migrants to please come. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9d8z72nn02o Japan too. https://www.dw.com/en/japan-bets-on-tech-immigration-as-labor-crisis-worsens/a-68194372

illicit:It was actually in a similar situation where Tony was being asked questions and many called him Tony. And I actually think it was planned to be so since many asking questions read them from the same sort of card which made me wonder the organisers had helped edit since they were all pre-chosen. That makes it not exactly similar, and as you said, "this is Africa". |
illicit:This is indeed, Africa. She more appropriately should have called him Mr Elumelu. And he is correct to have corrected her. And people will form opinions about the incident like Sowore and us are doing, and "the debate has gone beyond Sowore’s criticism, with Nigerians divided over respect, workplace culture, age, status and whether the young woman crossed a line by using Elumelu’s first name." |
illicit:No I haven't, I admit. I have met Prime Minister Tony Blair. Everyone called him Tony. |
seunmsg:What is positive about a high birthrate in a nation crying about poverty? Incidentally, I went digging and found the absurdly ridiculous. Raising a child in the UK from birth to age 18 costs approximately £259,028 for a couple and £290,807 for a lone parent, according to research from the Child Poverty Action Group (CPAG). These figures include a basic standard of living plus major expenses like housing and formal childcare. Without formal childcare, the basic cost drops to roughly £165,872 for couples and £186,822 for single parents. The total estimated cost to raise and educate a child from birth through university in Nigeria ranges from ₦5 million to over ₦65 million (£2,715.48 to £35,301.16). I don't know where such ridiculous figures come from and I wouldn't vouch for their validity, since a child raised on ₦65 million would likely starve and most likely not be educated, but the disparity in countries is significant such that more children would be born in Nigeria where it is relatively cheaper than Europe where baby having is for the rich and the very poor who can rely on the government to feed their children. |
Iwin2:In the immediate term, Nigerians are needing to learn to sweat in order to eat, and in the long term we shall eat more. I am suggesting that we Nigerians are not as productive as some because we do not seek enough and have quite a lot more knowledge out there that we don't yet know than we know, and learning to sweat for our daily bread will teach us to work harder and acquire more knowledgeable and make better decisions (please see Osun State), and Nigeria will be great indeed. |
Tony overreacted. And worse, showed his nature thinking he is above others, which he is in this instant, but doesn't need to brand about My own bias must however be noted, I can call King Charles, Charlie, and he wouldn't complain despite being more than a decade older than me and wearing a crown. |
DMCA:I beg your pardon, but while some of CharlesCNG words may fall by the roadside and wither in the sun such that some persons comprehend them not, some fall on undeaf minds where they produce fruit a million fold. |
bemeruca:Dump is the most prominent sexual offender discussed in the entire world and bayelsaowei talks about dump quite a lot, so I wouldn't quite expect it to be otherwise since he has not got the sort of obsession you have with gays, for instance. |
bemeruca:Basically, sexual offences are part of his discussions about politicians as they often are for many of us. Still, glad you now know AI can crawl Nairaland. Have you asked same question where you are concerned yet? Do. And share what it says about you. |
bemeruca:Don't you think it even much lazier to ask me to "Search bayelsaowei along with the keywords let's see what comes up" instead of you searching bayelsaowei along with the keywords and showing us what you find? As to your, "think google AI can send crawlers to crawl through Nairaland database", that's Nairalands core income generator! It would be Zeroland if Google didn't.

bemeruca:Lies are not funny. They show how ridiculous the liar is.

The US Treasury debt reached fabulous and much-anticipated $40 trillion today, after having ballooned by $1 trillion in three months, and by $3 trillion in 12 months, as tax cuts, profligate spending, the war in Iran, and the Supreme-court-triggered tariff refunds sped up the process. https://wolfstreet.com/2026/08/19/to-absorb-1-trillion-in-treasuries-in-3-months-as-the-debt-ballooned-to-40-trillion-investors-demanded-higher-yields-bessent-blows-fuse/

Streetinvestor2:Basically, your own state governor is spending the money given to him to develop your state to rig elections in Osun State and you are blaming those who gave your state's money to your governor? We in Osun State thank you for not holding your state's governor to account such that he is spending your own state money in our state. Please note that we took your state's money from your state's governor and still voted for our own governor because he spends our own state's money in our state.

CharlesCNG:So well put. A mind that sees no good where good is. Can't help see how Atiku made the current government articulate more though, which I appreciate. And vote Obi. Though I can't see him doing better than Tinubu, who still has to use his abilities to show us NNPC's books. |
bemeruca:Living. It's where she's grown up. Or would you ask me too what I'm doing where I am just because Tommy Robinson is dancing outside my door? Those "Black people with the sense of divide" are that country's equivalent of USA maga, to me. |
bemeruca:Go read again, slowly, this time. I said, "stealing". And while there is some non-white land theft, I don't hear many crying about those today, except you of course, who is afraid that Mamdani will steal the USA. |
Elusive001:Were you not taught what "thought" means, alhaja? |
Elusive001:Tell me how the theft of land in 14BCE is dissimilar to its current theft and let me know why you approve. |
bemeruca:I don't exactly see any non-white non-Jewish people stealing anyone's land, except perhaps the Nigerian government of black people who stole land from black Igbos, and which I said is shameful, but I guess we all know you for the unteller of truths that you are.
|
Elusive001:Since you like history, perhaps we should go back to the 14 BCE to see how land theft began. |
bemeruca:Those who established "their nation" declared war on those who lived there. |
Elusive001:Israelis of today are not native to the "land of Israel", nor are the Israelis of today the Israelites of the old, considering they import Europeans to make numbers up! But that's besides my point. I can't accept some people kicking me out of my house and claiming my land that was passed down to me by my great great great grandather. The decent thing is to ask to buy it, and if I say no, you walk away, but what Israel is hounding people out of their homes expecting they'll just walk away defeated, which the Palestinians are not doing. Nigeria did that to the Igbos after the Civil War, by not returning their properties and paying 10% of what they had in banks, and I think it's a shame on Nigeria and a hurt that will pain for decades, as it's already doing.

Elusive001:Are they? Really?
|
bemeruca:They have just mostly been intimidated and kick out by the Jews who arrived. |
IjeBos:Been reading Elusive001, and this is my advice too. |
