So the fact that it is a political satire does not matter to you, intent doesn't matter to you. The fact that the video was not targeting Obama or blacks as primates matters to you. What matters is how you feel?

First, and I repeat, I don't understand why you lie to yourself, but for me, that "political satire" slip was Obama as primates. And yes, ben, what matters to me is how I feel about it.

I don't just look for intent, since I lack the superpowers to enter into a person's heart to see the intent of letting a video with a well known racist trope mistakenly slip under their handle. I look at its effect, since effect is one thing I'd expect a competent president of the USA to consider before letting things slip.

You see, how I feel about things is by intellectually engaging with things from various angles to feel (with my hands and my eyes and my brain and my mind and through the various lenses I have acquired through the decades) so that I may have a full understanding of the thing and my feeling for the thing and of the feelings of others for the thing since I'm not the only feeler with feelings for things.

I once had the n-word slip out of a manager's mouth. He was Malaysian, of Chinese descent, and I'd never heard nor seen any racism in him, but in heated argument with a Nigerian once, the word was uttered. I was gobsmacked. Seriously, I tried to even hide like I didn't really hear, but for where. Suspended on the spot and he never returned to work after that.

If a person's child reports being depicted as this president depicted Obama, how the child feels will be our first consideration, and not the intent of the uncouth child who posted it, which shall be dealt with at the polls in this case.

If a president slips that trope depicting what some already think is his belief then I guess I'll consider his intent to be a reveal, like his intent is to show me his true color. But foøl better describes dump's case, because we already knew, and only foolish people let slip like that and because the intent on some is to make them actually think and believe the intended, which is evil, according to my own feelings.

You do of course have the same right and prerogative or not to feel how you feel about things.

Incidentally, I'm watching Deadwood. There's an episode in s2 where the sheriff saves, from a lynching mob, the commissioner who wants to literally steal their gold mine rights, so the mob turns on the black man as distraction. It's set in 1876.

raumdeuter:
Even AI keeps repeating that he is emotional

Most leftists argue based on emotions. Its quite laughable

They have an emotional reaction to anything Trump does and it makes them look childish, the male sound effêminate and its easy for Trump to play with their emotions

Trump can go on social media and post that I want to eat Burger and steak you will immediately see leftists crying like toddlers

Some even go to rivers and lakes to scream at water because of Trump. They go drive vehicles to hurt law enforcement because they hate Trump

At least you said "most" and not all.

benalvino3:
Did you watch the election fraud video that has that 1 second clip? Just like the Elon Musk nazi salute lie, you want to force this agenda too?

Ben, unlike president "I didn't see the whole thing" dump, buda opens their eyes and looks so they can say they saw.

benalvino3:
... that slipped into a screen recording.

Keep lying to yourself ben, that dump didn't slip it on his lies social, to his followers and the entire world.

benalvino3:
So many decades gone and sadly, this is still the case. Ijebos is ground zero

I hope AI is making you understand that we need to discuss these better than we do, because garbage in AI, garbage out AI.

So tell. How do you think people in America should react to the first black president of the United States of America being depicted as a monkey by a current president?

benalvino3:
It's fun seeing what AI thinks about us in this thread.

It is! Darnit! It really is! And I'm so pleased you are looking.

Please share some. I want to post it in the pot.

benalvino3:
Only Biden is allowed to be Racist to Obama and Black people

https:// m/mazemoore/status/2020012594870788554?s=20

Ben. Why are you creating a scenario in your head where we'd condone Biden racist today after repenting? Why?

IjeBos:
Step 1: Trump posts racist imagery
Step 2: All the self-hating black people in this thread line up to defend said racism
Step 3: The less self-hating Republican black people and most every other Republican understands how racist it is and denounces it.
Step 4: Trump who never backs down finally understands he went too far, his administration blames an intern and he takes it down.
Step 5: All the self-hating black people in this thread are left to continue to defend said racism despite Trump taking it down revealing how deeply self-hating they are and that they will swallow anything in their defense of Trump.
Step 6: Go back to Step 1 in a few days with something else.

Trump is truly a mirror into people's souls.

You've pretty much summed up my reason for avoiding them a little. I lose the respect of those who regard me if I engage them too much on their maga-roundabout.

Some of you should please attend the remedial classes being hosted by Ezeama400.

It will improve you and the Nairaland community.

Thank you in advance.

Ezeama400:
Like I asked yesterday , What is difference between a Tribalist and a racist?

Or age or gender or sex or disability, etc etc etc?

There is none. So, learning about race, and people like you forcing the tribe connection, is how we all learn, thank you.

Had to go find as your link doesn't work for me.

Peterlove11:
And that's the problem......there are no checks and balances. Everything shouldn't be based on how I feel or what I want, it should be in the interest of family. We shouldn't normalise divorce because we can, rather we should rather uphold family because we should.
Then secondly I only gave that analogy to understand the concept of Headship, denying it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. We deny the obvious because of pre-existing trauma we've had. Living under the rock doesn't mean the sun doesn't exist.

I think it is in the interest of our family that we should lead our family with both our heads and not just with your only head, because leading with only your head would be like having two engines in your car and only using one, or, walking with one hand tied behind your back and the other covering your eye.

I'm not saying "it doesn't exist", Peterlove11. Of course it does exist just as you exist. And I am very aware of the many cultures and societies and countries who do dominate girls by depriving them of education so they can be dominated.

I'm saying, it doesn't exist in my marriage.

You ask this very successful dude why he is not heading any woman. It might make you wanna consider.

Negative. Can't stand dump. Reminds me of Er Puzzone.

Sonofdmostthigh:
If someone watched your life quietly for one week, without hearing your words, what would they conclude about your faith?

I am genuinely interested in your thoughts.

Task set in buda diary.

Arrange to be watched quietly by Nairalanders to see what is concluded about the faith that I have in most of my fellow human beings.

Status: Undated

It is declared that buda is atheist, and as far as the verse below be concerned, buda is working on the progress, and is in fact at the repentance stage.

'Undated' status are so the rear end of buda is kicked till status is upgraded.

Peterlove11:
You are still misunderstanding the concept of Headship.....Do you work with an organization? or ever being the boss of a company?

My marriage is not a company. You did not publish an advert I applied to with a cv. You did not interview me to marry you. We never negotiated terms like pay and start day and leave.

So you can not be my boss. I don't work for you. I was your wife. Now I want divorce! Basically, I quit!

Peterlove11:
Lol.......of course you are equals but for order sake in the home, He is your lord and Head. I know the word Lordship and Headship frightens you

No! No! Peterlove11, "the word Lordship and Headship" does not frighten me. It's the fact that I married a man who thinks "I do" means you are now my lord and my head, that frightens me. Like, what was I thinking, sort of frighten me.

In my house from where you married me, my father was not the lord and the head of my mother. They both worked together equally to raise us their family. Often my mother to be honest. My grandmothers were the same, working with my grandfathers to raise my parents. And my parents raised us to be lords of our own heads. So I don't see, or rather, I can't imagine how much dowry you must have paid my father to allow you to marry his daughter to be honest, such that you become his daughter's lord and head not to talk of his daughter letting you be her lord and her head.

Amuroba:
Yesterday, Deadwood Movie had me laughing all night. But you may not feel it, if you haven't watched the series. The movie is actually a sequel. Which i rate 9.6/10

Just found Deadwood Series. There's a movie?

I am so late, lol!

benalvino3:
The intent is what i would look at before I get enraged. If I am not being depicted that way because of the color of my skin, and I see that other races are depicted that way, why should i worry? i will laugh at the joke instead.

Well, ben, I don't have the superpowers you have that empower you to look in another person to see the intent of what they decide in their own heart to do.

I only see what they have actually done, and my first consideration is usually not, why did they do what they did, since I know I can't read their mind, but what did they do.

I might then consider the effect of what they done, and even ask why they did it, or least wonder if they wise or they smart or they stup¹ or they just plain dump or they what!

As for your "laugh at the joke instead".

IjeBos, the evidence supports your position that a person can not understand a culture they have not lived in. And it does seem to me like he has never lived a book, or he'd have learnt not to laugh at the denigration of others.

BreakingNews21:
Colonialism was and still is potent all over the British Empire. This lady's statement still trips me out. There's been civil wars and divisions almost every place they traveled on the planet.

AI Overview
Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has frequently discussed that she only came to identify as "Black" after moving to the United States for college, as race was not a significant, defining marker in her native Nigeria.
"I didn't Know I was Black Until I went to America"

I am opposite. I grew in Tottenham and didn't know I was black till I moved to Nigeria at 7.

There was only one other black kid in my school, but it made no difference. I was treated as fair as any other kid in my class I can safely say, within your will to accept my word from so long ago, of course.

I go charcoal black in Nigerian sun. Imagine the nicknames. Some are cruelly colorist! Or should that be blackistist, since they black too.

benalvino3:
Both Black and white people were depicted as monkeys in the same video; other black people were depicted as other animals, yet its racism?

Forget it's racism, ben. Is it good? Is it appropriate?

Is it a thing to be condoned and commended?

Would you appreciate being depicted that way?

Would you depict others that way?

Sportsweb:
Damm, just saw the full video. Those Dems really know how to manipulate their base..made it look like Trump posted only Obamas as primates

It's okay then since dump posted others as primates?

Think slow. A president? A former president?

A former black president of the United States of America?

Are you okay with a Nigerian politician posting others as primates?

I ask because even dump kind of thinks it might have gone just a tiny but too far.

Peterlove11:
Not true.....except the context of the law isnt clearly understood since we don't live in there culture and environment. But if it affects the dynamics of. marriage and promote no-fault ddirvorce then it's a big No. Family is for everyone and should protect everyone.

Peterlove11. The dynamics of our marriage must have been affected way before the day that some sort of spirit enters me and I report you to some outside of our marriage people, I think. After then, and only then does the dynamics of our marriage get affected by this French law, don't you agree?

France laws, like all of Europes law, protects everyone regardless of gender, colour, race, sex, tribe, religion, disability, age or even whom one fuqs. They can't be so stup¹ to be creating laws for woman and not for man. That's like 1500AD backwardness, and that's not France.

LeeSmart:
Talking about slavery, you know nothing about modern day slavery ongoing in china currently. I see the way you love china, keep it up. The same you that is taking about preferring china would be the first to queue up in the American embassy seeking for visa.

Please know that buda considers a monthly of wage of ₦70k is "modern day slavery ongoing in" wherever that is the wage. But if you ever find buda in a queue to dump's USA, shoot buda please! Because, if you don't shoot buda in the queue, somebody will definitely shoot buda in that dump!

buda loves Nigeria more than China and USA!

Dpsychologist:
Yet you quickly rushed to do thesame thing you accused me by generalizing on Nairaland men while building your entire argument on internet caricatures..

buda is very guilty as charged "by generalizing".

Guilty for the exaggeration and the caricaturing too.

The Strong Man I added to the bottom is the absolution for my sinning, and a rally for the contribution of such men it depicts.

Because If you ask around you'd be told buda exaggeratingly generally always caricatures Nairaland boys as those animals that grunt in sties, and I'm pleasantly amazed to find you are not one of the Andrew Tate redpill olosho chasers who refuse to acknowledge the woman at all, for which, immense respect to you, Sir Dpsychologist.

Dpsychologist:
Modern men are not strangers to capable women. We were raised by working mothers, taught by female teachers, managed by female bosses, and went to school with ambitious girls. Female success is not a shock. It is normal life.

We, is "turn personal experiences into universal laws".

If I ask Modern men on Nairaland, many are redpill olosho customer trained by Andrew Tate.

Dpsychologist:
What many men react to is not success, but what sometimes follows it. A change in attitude. Respect quietly leaving the room. Confidence crossing the line into contempt. Independence being used as an excuse to avoid accountability.

But that change is inevitable.

Person who refused to have a vasectomy and instead drugged his wife every month because he was satisfied with his two boys and tell me he'd be able to ever sleep when my eyes open to a trick as old as Adam telling Eve she'd surely die.

Dpsychologist:
At the same time, number of women are actually exhausted. Tired of shrinking themselves. Tired of being told to be less loud, less confident, less visible. Tired of their confidence being labelled arrogance simply because it comes from a woman.

Tired of being oppressed by small minded men.

Dpsychologist:
The problem starts when people turn personal experiences into universal laws.
“All men are intimidated” is false.
“No man is intimidated” is also false.

And some men are just Gods!

SixSeven:
This is very interesting considering what US did in Venuezela

It really is. Imagine US do that to buda in Nigeria.

Reren go run!

But I guess I'm not Chicago, so I safe.

Freshandfitpod:
Abroadirian you can't be in two places at a time, focus on yourself and leave Nigeria out of your mouth besides you were not born here, you are a foreigner. Last warning

According to Chapter 3, Section 26, Part 2, Subsection c of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999:

Every person of full age and capacity born outside Nigeria any of whose grandparents is a citizen of Nigeria.

As for being in two places at the same time o ko mọ egbe oun pe ni balubalu!

Foreigner has no jurisdiction in my Fatherland!

LordReed:
Bwahahahahahaha! Oh my dear buda! I don't know whether to be pleased or aghast. LoLz.

Aghast I was to see how brutal I'd often been.

It's making me repent and be meek buda.
