You are not making sense Oga.
I do not expect to make sense to an si like you who's maths is racist. It's the reason I elected buhari to rule you, so when you'd suffer you'd hopefully learn. Pity it didn't work as well as I hoped.

I'm not a lazy fuq like you si. I work for my money and feed myself and many others too.

You know very well that you Nigerians will always beg for food or rent or schoolfees or healthfees, and I can't watch my relatives die when I can assist.

See this idiot, He supported Buhari, when things go bad he blames Nigerians for supporting what he supported. Yeah, Nigerians elected a tyrant, but ....
Si, I wanted Nigerian you to elect a tyrant because you needed one! The only pity I have was he could not be as tyrannical as he'd been as head of state because na democracy we dey.

If he'd thrown some lazy ass corrupt fuqs in jail like he did as HoS, there might have been much less corrupt stupid idiots like you roaming the streets today.

If Israel Nigeria kicked Palestine Ibos off their land posing some pre-independence document as evidence of Nigeria, some somewhere will definitely oppose Nigeria.
Politics › Re: PENGASSAN Confirms Return Of Fuel Subsidy Under Tinubu by budaatum: 1:02pm On Oct 08, 2023
Buhari should have removed the subsidy at the beginning of his first term, though I can see how his own party might have resisted since no one would vote for them with N620 a litre fuel.

Until we make our own fuel from our own crude oil, politicians will either subsidise or watch Nigerians suffer and not reelect them.

How can you blame Nigerians for their own sufferings ....
How can I blame Nigerians for electing Buhari whom everyone with a brain knew would make them suffer?

Same way I'd blame Americans for electing their own presidents I guess, unless you wish to claim Russia elected the American president.

Budaatum with your head like RMS Titanic. You are still here making excuses for Buhari and APC?
buda is not making excuses for Buhari and APC. He called you lazy fuq, so his rule was bound to make lazy fuq you suffer, which you did and which immensely delights me.

Pity is, you so did not learn, and APC has a third term, like you think Tinubu is any different. Or has Naira nor depreciated since he became president?

Keep irresponsibly believing politicians are there to put food in your belly and make life easy for you. When you starve because they are not feeding your lazy ass, I'm certain you'd become responsible for yourself, or die.

One of the dumbest comment on nairaland. Even Tinubu & his ministers has confirmed that the last time Nigeria a had prospering economy was 10years ago under GEJ.
Tinubu whom many would argue lied and forged his certificate is definitely worth listening to I guess. Especially if you are capable of ignoring all the naira converted to dollars packed in ghanamustgoes and hidden in soakaways under GEJ.

When your leaders steal billions and throw you coins to blind you, you might definitely think you were prosperous.

Buhari was not responsible for lazy fuq you suffering. If you sit on you lazy ass doing nothing, you will suffer and you will deserve to suffer.

And by the way, Nigerians are still suffering now, and even moreso than under Buhari.

That's how budaatum push for buhari went na... Strong economy that made him vote the dictator twoce. Only fools like this don't see the hardship. Go check Biden's polls on the economy.
Buhari was actually to deprive lazy fuqs like you eating free food you never worked for.

And it worked, as local politicians had much less money to pay for your begging and rankadedeing, meaning people had to labour for their daily bread.

Same now in US actually, as more are seeking employment instead of waiting for handouts. You can't live on fentanyl if you got to go work.

About the Democratic Party

The Democratic Party is the oldest continuing party in the United States, officially founded in 1828. The Democratic-Republican Party, which had become the sole dominant party after the war of 1812, ran four presidential candidates in the 1824 election, including Andrew Jackson, John Quincy Adams, William Crawford (the official Party nominee), and Henry Clay. While Jackson won the popular vote (with 41.8%), no candidate won an electoral college majority and the House of Representatives selected Adams to be president. Angered that the popular vote had been ignored, Jackson and Senator Martin Van Buren formed a new party which they saw as representing the will of the people—the Democratic Party, which trounced Adams in the next Presidential Election. The Democratic Party at its inception was against central government power (including abolishing the Bank of the United States) as its key platform. It was not sympathetic to native Americans and opposed the abolition of slavery. In the run up to the Civil War, the party became sharply divided between Northern and Southern Democrats, the former believing US territories should vote on whether or not to allow slavery within their borders and the latter believing slavery should be allowed regardless. After the civil war, because many Southerners associated the Republican party with the Union Army and reconstruction, the Democratic Party became the political home for most white Southerners. The party took positions supportive of Jim Crow laws and denying full rights to African Americans, and remained the dominant party in the South for decades. Meanwhile, the Republican Party became nationally dominant in the post-civil war era. The Democratic Party nominated William Jennings Bryan to run for President in 1896, who had economically left-wing positions against big business and in support of Unions, farmers, and an expanded role of government in protecting working class people (including by social welfare and regulation). While Bryan lost, his ideas have remained influential in the Democratic Party even to today. In 1929, with the crash of the stock market and the great depression, the dominance of Republicans in post-civil war American Politics was solidly crushed by the Democrats, who were led by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the only president to be elected more than twice. Roosevelt championed progressive economic policies such as Social Security, Medicare, and the New Deal which created huge government spending and programs to help and employ working people. This solidified the economically left-wing position of the Democratic Party, and created an era of national Democratic dominance, which lasted for about a half-century. While most Southerners of both parties opposed ending segregation, and most Northerners supported it, it was southern Democratic president Lyndon Johnson who signed the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act into law, solidifying the party’s position as a socially left party. Today, the party remains economically and socially to the left of the Republican Party.

Bidenomics?

.....over the past three months, 799,000 jobs were created, including the upward revisions for July and August, and that was fine.

Growth in overall employment, which includes the self-employed, per the separate survey of households, was fine too, rising by 576,000 over the past three months. The labor force continued to rise, and that was fine. The number of unemployed rose a tad but remained near historic lows. The prime-age labor participation rate – people between 24 and 54 – remained at the two-decade high, and that was fine. And the narrowest measure of the unemployment rate was unchanged near historic lows, and that was fine, etc., etc.

Folks can quibble with some of the details, but overall it was fine – it has been fine every month all year, exactly what you’d expect from an economy that’s just plugging right along.

Nextt:
Many folks here capitalise on the safety that anonymity brings and spew insults on persons they will bathe with address of respect should they meet in person.

A man asked what he should do over the disrespect of his 37 year-old son in marrying without his consent. Very rude behaviour you will find in the way many responded to his enquiry. I bet their legs will buckle, and their lips will seem heavy like 30-feet container if asked to repeat what they have said here to him in person.

One of them managed to bring religion into the matter to insult God while dishing out acid from her tongue in the name of a better person. Disrespectful generation. You will have what you sow.

Respect people, folks.
Do you think a father who comes on Nairaland and inform us he wants to teach of a 37 year old a lesson deserves respect when he can't respect his own son? Or is it just that you can't see how disrespectful he might be being because you've been programmed to respect grey hairs?

This in Nairaland where we don't respect even the gods, and the op should have known that since this is his eleventh year here.

Respect yourself if you want to be respected.

Lol. You have a fairness doctrine I believe. But surprised you watched OANN regularly. People making illogical arguments makes my head hurt.

But MSNBC is not bad if you want factual reporting with liberal advocacy. But, it is too much advocacy for my liking. I don't like outsourcing my thought process to other people. But unlike Fox, you will be informed as to what is going on. Some of the anchors are ok though. Andrea Mitchell, Jen Psaki, Morning Joe.
I guess I might have a fairness doctrine or at least the desire to be aware of claims from both sides. Left to me I'd ban the Bible and Qur'an in Nigeria and introduce one book with both and call it BibleQuran.

I'm watching Real America with Dan Ball now F1 qualifying is done as I wait for the Sprint, though flipping channels because I can't stand him. I watch Owen Shroyer on Infowars in very small doses who the other days said "even if it's true he wouldn't believe it", and some girl who babbles like him. I watch Newsmaxx sometimes, MSNBC sometimes, CNN sometimes, Jazeera, Euronews, gbnews sometimes and BBC often of course.

If you want to know the latest maga talking point you got to watch their telly. Shroyer gives heads-up on Basilico's latest maga talking point l find, which is why I limit my discuss with stupid idiots. His latest one is Democrats have made a deal to reinstall McCarthy and will vote for him next week. "That's his belief" which "all makes sense", while peddling DrStella.

A lot of American telly is just so Jerry Springer, and magas are the main audience lefts and rights. They'd not be licenced to broadcast here.

Below is Shroyer on my telly.

The obvious reason Biden would let the wall be built is to win over the moderates for whom a wall is an issue, and as a politician I'd expect no less.

In fact, if being anti-abortion would win him more votes he'd likely be anti my body my choice too, though without my support.

I'm glad he's giving you si magas something to salivate over and also glad buda gets you all riled up.
Christianity Etc › Are More Atheists Required? by budaatum(op): 12:30pm On Oct 06, 2023
Their first atheist lesson was completely impromptu. Noah was 5, Jesse was 3, and we were sitting on the couch before bed reading from “D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek Myths,” a holdover from my childhood bookshelf. One of the boys asked what a “myth” was, and I told them it was a story about how the world works. People used to believe that these gods were in charge of what happened on Earth, and these stories helped explain things they didn’t understand, like winter or stars or thunder. “See” — I flipped ahead and found a picture — “Zeus has a thunderbolt.”

“They don’t believe them anymore?” No, I said. That’s why they call it “myth.” When people still believe it, they call it “religion.” Like the stories about God and Moses that we read at Passover or the ones about Jesus and Christmas.

The little pajama-clad bodies nodded, and on we read.

Basically, if a Right Libertarian lands somewhere and discovers natural resources and mixes his labor with them, their his and his alone.

Of course he'd need to convince the natives he met there that they don't own it because, well, they never knew it was there, lol.

The thing with you 2 is your brains don't work, so it's a waste of time even acknowledging you exist not to talk of hold conversation with you.

The wall Biden is building is to spend the money dump already appropriated for the wall that can't be spent on anything else. And many Dems will still go to court to oppose it being built.

But here comes the fun part. Jack Smith's team doesn't leak. Who leaked this and why?
Reads like it was the Australian billionaire (Pratt) maybe looking out for Republicans and trying to hurt Trump now and/or inoculate him from the info coming out during the General election.
Pratt already told lots of others including journalists, it says in the piece.
