Probably in your own culture, budaatum, women have never been oppressed in my own culture or part of the world.

I have never said this to anyone on here but I'm going to say it to you. I don't read past the first few lines of your post because even the tiny bit I do read is not worth the bother.

If you get your head unstuck from where you normally stick it, which is usually up some gay person's ass, that might change, but currently, you quoting me to attract attention to your thread is just you being a nuisance and a pest and an attempt to make buda stink like you do, at which you are sure to fail.

Go find something to do please and leave me out of your stupidity and ignorance. I don't have time to waste on you.

Even my UK law is getting this dump. Must be because he hires the best lawyers here too.

tctrills:
Let me ask, do you call the 2015 election a revolution? We dumped PDP for APC remember?

No, I wouldn't, since there was nothing groundbreaking about it in my opinion, despite it being the first democratic change of governing party in Nigeria.

Electing my Obi on the other hand would have definitely required a transformation in the psyche of the majority of Nigerians to the extent that I would have called it revolutionary. I however would not have been surprised if I were not agreed with.

raskymonojendor:
Well he is not wrong. Twice Awolowo demanded that secession be put in the constitution, and twice Azikiwe ensured that would not be.

A limited capability to understand what one reads is worst than not reading at all.

Let's see if the US House sanctions UN too.

Justice works.

Scarcity234:
You deem yourself intelligent with your comments that's reeks of childishness?

You ain't close to being one.

You made a claim above and I asked you a question that you ignored...

Is every crime by anyone in Nigeria committed cause the criminal wants Nigeria to fail and is every criminal a secessionist?

First, I never told you I was intelligent, but thank you for associating me with intelligence. It is appreciated.

The answer to your question is no. But I don't know why you'd ask me that question since I never said "every crime by anyone in Nigeria committed cause the criminal wants Nigeria to fail and is every criminal a secessionist".

Now that I think of it however, every crime by anyone in Nigeria does contribute to Nigeria failing. Some criminals though, just commit crimes for their daily bread and don't give a fuq about seceding or whatever damage their crime might do to Nigeria.

And now that I've answered your question, I've also gone and reread your initial post and can only conclude that you have comprehension issues, and you definitely have problems expressing yourself, which makes me wonder if you are not the childish one. Otherwise, how can you possibly conclude from what I wrote and that you responded to that those who believe in Nigeria want to justify Biafra?

If they were alive during the war, would they have worn Biafra and Nigerian army uniforms and fought for both sides too?

Scarcity234:
I guess those who belonged to the other side of the war who believed in Nigeria and who are now were and and are still doing what you listed wanted to justify Biafra?

What kind 0f childish thought is this?

Your comprehension abilities are as bad as your inability to express yourself like a mature human being.

atheistconverta:
You have a point though... I have added another screenshot this time of kobojunkie himself so i hope that suffices for you.

A little better, but I can't conclude from that that he said Jesus Christ never existed.

My fault though. I'm pedantic like that.

I feel like spreading lies that you are gay, ritualist, witch or wizard. E.t.c., but I know it would be stupid to do so.

Dump her if you don't like her instead of coming here to post on social media and socialise with us.

Autodidact1:
Stop asking stupid questions you already know the amswer to. Or is your bias locking your 🧠?

Stop commenting if you haven't got anything intelligent to say.

atheistconverta:
Kobojunkie seems on a mission here to make a mockery of the teachings of Jesus by quoting them as though he were a true follower of Christ, but will trying to convert Christians to atheists at the back telling them Jesus never existed. Beware!

Op, your evidence is untrustworthy, do note.

If you want to accuse someone of saying something here on Nairaland, you'd need to quote where they said it, instead of presenting someone claiming that person said what you claim they said.

If I were to quote yours above and claim the person you accuse said what you claim they said without providing evidence where they said it, it would be lazy, and I'd just be lying, and that, in my opinion, is worst than being an atheist.

tctrills:
Yes, the American Revolution is one of the very few good ones. But if you notice, all the examples you give are older than 100 years and far in between. That only tells you that revolution is not a smart move. And I never said all revolutions are negative, I said most. It was you who felt all revolutions must be positive. But it seems you have changed your mind about that so good for you.

My objection is against your sweeping statement that revolutions are bad. Whether revolutions are good or bad depends on the person revolting, is what you can't seem to accept. And you fail to recognise that even good or bad is subjective.

If I revolt against oppression and die in the process, you might think that is bad, but as I stated in this very conversation, some would rather revolt, and even if they died in the process, it could still be considered good for them and for others who might live. Examples are Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr.

Anyway, as I said, I always revolt against those who would oppressor me. My dignity alone would make me revolt, as I'd lose respect for myself if I don't. And that's probably why I don't get oppressed. It's like standing up to bullies. If you don't revolt against them they'd just keep bullying you.

As for your many other ways, they are included in revolution for me, which is standing up against the status quo in order to effect change. And there's no reason why that standing up needs to be bloody, which is why peaceful revolutions effected by Martin Luther King Jr and Gandhi and Eve are mentioned.

And to that list I add Jesus Christ, and revolutions that come into effect due to the peaceful practice of democracy. If Nigerians had dumped APC and PDP at the last election, we'd likely be talking about a peaceful revolution now.

For those of you who never heard his music.

Seems like Kobojunkie is doing what buda does, which makes me wonder if he wants to burn in hell with buda!

I better add Bible so I can prove my guilt.

tctrills:
Now to the case of Eve, let's even argue that you are right and her revolution was the best thing ever, how about the million others who daily revolt against their God and end up destroying their lives and cutting short their blessings? For every case where revolution led to a good outcome, a million cases have a negative result.

Eve did not revolt against her God. She revolted against the stupid ignorant instruction that Adam is said to have received from God. And the evidence is that Adam, and God, lied, since eating the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil did not kill her, but opened her eyes, and gave her wisdom, and freed her and her dumb Adam from slavery after which she became self employed and populated the earth and lived for almost a 1000 years, which is very positive indeed as far as I am concerned. In fact, if Eve hadn't revolted, we probably never have heard of her.

Basically, you and I have a fundamental philosophical difference. You would not revolt against those who oppress you, while I most definitely would revolt even if you don't revolt with me and even if it means I die in the process.

I don't believe I can force you to revolt with me, but neither can you stop me from revolting.

tctrills:
A few things here. Even if fundamental transformation is mostly used to indicate a positive change, it isn't so in the case of revolution. I gave you 4 globally acclaimed revolutions that only led to more sorrow, tears, and blood. The Chinese communist revolution,

And I gave you a few revolutions that have led to positive change, so it's rather dumb to presume all revolutions are negative or positive, especially since many wouldn't even agree on what is positive or negative.

Anyway, here's another popular revolution where many died too. Please argue that they therefore shouldn't have revolted if you may.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Revolution

According to the Egyptian Creation Myth, the world began as an infinite and lifeless expanse of water known as Nu. From this water emerged a mound of earth called the benben, and the god Atum appeared on top of this mound. Atum was the first god, and he created himself by speaking his name into existence.

Atum then created the god Shu, representing air, and Tefnut, representing moisture. Shu and Tefnut gave birth to the earth god Geb and the sky goddess Nut. Geb and Nut were lovers, but their father, Shu, separated them, creating the space between Earth and the sky.

The story explains the origins of the world, the creation of the gods, and the relationships between them. It was an essential part of ancient Egyptian religion. It was used to explain the natural phenomena of the world and reinforce Egyptian society’s social and political hierarchy.

PaNnamdi:
I can't enter a plane with a Muslim pilot,I don't want a allahu akbahman to fly meet 40,000 feet above the ground for any reason

Sounds like an idiot Nigerian claiming they can't enter a plane flied by an Igbo person because they don't want to be ipobed.

When do you ask the pilot their religion? Is it during boarding or when you buy your ticket?

And does this your fear extend to getting on a bus driven by a Muslim? And if not, why not?

tctrills:
Sir a fundamental change can be negative or positive.

Indeed it can be, but when most people talk about a fundamental transformation, the often mean a positive change.

As for your revolutions mostly leading to negative change, I guess we'd need to beg to differ, and in my defence, I offer you Eve's revolution against those who would keep her ignorant and naked in the Garden of Eden knowing you would never accept that the change she bought about was positive.

God1blessBiafra:
Mr smart abeg go rest because you are too dumb.


Your comments are testimony to that

God bless you.

Fuckyoumod:
you nothing but an Islamic terrorist. The only intelligence you have is how to plan and execute terrorism.
The highest you can do is blow yourself with a suicide vest.

Are you trying to terrorise buda?

If so, I strongly suggest you try harder.

Pity that when Buhari proposed ranches, illiterates thought it was for Ruga for Fulanis only, without realising anyone could buy land and ranch.

Nomadic cow herding is what Fulani know, and that's why we Nigerians produce so little and inferior meat and no milk. If other tribes go to school to learn ranching, we'd put Fulani out of business.

Thankfully, we are getting there, though slowly.

armyofone:
Unfortunately nobody in Nigeria wants to give up their lives for just cause / bring changes etc

Easier for them to look for alternatives to survive.
They don't even like or trust each other.

We are waiting for Christ to come and save us perhaps, which is why I always say, in 3024.

I have tctrills trying to convince me that revolutions are bad. But there's also God1blessBiafra accusing me of not revolting, so, perhaps I'll go change my name to Kunta Nnamdi Kinte Kanu so they are more confused.

tctrills:
Sir from your definition of a revolution, the outcomes do not have to be good. In fact, you would not find that anywhere.

In political science, a revolution (Latin: revolutio, 'a turn around') is a rapid, fundamental transformation of a society's state, class, ethnic or religious structures. A revolution involves the attempted change in political regimes, substantial mass mobilization, and efforts to force change through non-institutionalized means (such as mass demonstrations, protests, strikes, or violence).

I guess the bold implies negative change, to you.

No one calls a negative change a revolution.

God1blessBiafra, we must revolt!

ijebosb:
I told you. Start by having hearings on this.
Then a supreme court code of conduct.
Then remove life time appointments. Give them 20 years or so.

I'm just glad that Biden is leaving the Supreme Court alone.

ijebosb:
Budaa, you're making this personal. My world involves a lot of educated people where I don't encounter the types of arguments made on this site by certain people. I'm less concerned less about me and more so concerned about the corrosive effects the large scale propaganda has on a public that, for lack of a better way of saying it, is less educated and less capable of deciphering such. I believe in the UK, you have rules which ensure or try to ensure 'fairness' in the broadcasting space. The Us has no such rules.

You made this personal by assuming the majority of Americans are not smart like you and will fall for maga nonsenses. Me, I have the personal faith that the majority of Americans are not that stupid, as confirmed by the last election and hopefully by the next.

US has the silly notion of freedom of speech, and guns, both of which we definitely thankfully don't have. Would you like to migrate here perhaps?

ijebosb:
1.) Biden can't have him released. He has no control over State crimes.
2.) If he could, though he can't, why would you consider that a smart move?
3.) What evidence have you seen going higher works? Did it work in the Hillary v. Trump race? Has it worked since Trump left office? My argument is simple, enforce the laws and use the power available. Nothing in that is going low.

1) If I were Biden, I'd beg Merchan.

2) The humiliation of dump being forgiven by Biden would be divine.

3) Yes it did work. Dump did one single term and got dumped.

As for enforcing the law, that is not Biden's duty, and him doing so would be an abuse of power. Besides, the law, slow as it may seem, is being enforced already.

OgatheTop:
Imagine how silly you sound.

Stop imagining, and use your mind to think and reason instead.

It will benefit you if you did.

armyofone:
Nobody wants to die or be beaten in the street. The government just do whatever and hardly speak with the Nigerian people.

Everyone just suck it up and pretend all is well and look for alternatives.

Maybe clay can be used in place of garrium. It is rich in Iron...toh

You saying no one in Nigeria wants to fight to free themselves from oppression?

Just imagine USA had the same attitude. They'd still be under British rule and black people would be slaves. But thank God they are not like Nigerians I suppose, because even Nigerians benefit from US' fight against oppression.

Fuckyoumod:
shut up! He speaks the truth.

I doubt you have sufficient intelligence to shut me up, but I do hope you try.

God1blessBiafra:
And God bless those that want others to fail in achieving their freedom just as you and your Nigeria do?

You do make me laugh. Incidentally, I just got off the phone to my sister where I'm trying to convince her that Eve freed herself from naked ignorant slavery in the Garden of Eden and some lying god that told Adam he would die if he nourished himself with knowledge, yet here is you telling me I don't want you to achieve your freedom, lol.

Igbos are not smart in my own opinion. If I were Igbo who wanted my freedom, I would develop my Igboland so it is the best place to be in the entire Nigeria and Africa even, so those yẹyẹ undeveloped Nigerians will see my Igboland and beg me to let them be my slaves and change their name to my Biafra.

Trust me, you will only succeed when you learn to outsmart those who oppress you.
