I only pray that China never become the most powerful country in the world.If she does it will spell doom to the underdeveloped countries especially those in Africa. Chinese are innately heartless and racist, far worse than the West.
There's no stopping them now.

Even if they don't become more powerful than the US.

20 years from now, they'll have their armies stationed all over the place.

PeacenLove2:
Wow! Sounds like what men have been doing to women since the time of Adam. grin

Guy, it's the basic truth. Survival of the fittest! Human beings like animals tend to prey on the weakness of others. Every animal in the jungle on the look out for the weak. Believe me it's not gender specific. It's a general problem that denial will not take away.

What can a woman do that is not allowed by their menfolk? We hear all sorts like women maltreated house girl. What is the husband doing? It's either he is also doing it or complicit. Neither absolves him. It's sad and I wish we can do better as human beings.
Many husbands don't firmly speak up, because they fear their wives will make their home "ungovernable".

Last December, a Nairander had this exact problem: https://www.nairaland.com/5591406/wicked-wife-didnt-buy-christmas

And his wife accused him of sleeping with their 15 year old house help, and stopped sleeping their room.

If you check the OP's profile, you'll see his other two post updates.

And yet he still bashed them, SMH
Kindness, compassion and goodness are not gender dependent. Or are you saying they are?
Let’s “hear” it.
"Reflex women bashing aside..."

In all my years, I've never seen or heard of men being vicious and heavy-handed towards maids and house-helps.

Perhaps it does happen.

But I've just never heard of it.

There's just something about having non-filial dependents that brings out womens' basest instincts.

Now, this is not an argument for the non-existence of male cruelty.

In Nigeria, most looters, kidnappers, armed robbers and SARS operatives are men.

But in this regard, women take the cake.

Women bashing aside.

They generally lack compassion for the weak and the defenceless.

I don't know why.

Family › Re: My Neighbour (female) Sleeps With Light On Every Night by BuddhaPalm(m):
HundHunter:
It is called Nyctophobia. This is a phobia characterized by a severe fear of the dark.

It is triggered by the brain's disfigured perception of what would or could happen when in a dark environment.

It is common among the children
99 percent of the time, I sleep with the lights on. And I don't have your phobia.

Perhaps she always sleeps off watching tv, or fiddling with her phone.
Crime › Re: Nigerians Blame Banks For Negligence As Robbers Visit Homes With POS Machines by BuddhaPalm(m): 11:36am On Apr 22, 2020
yinchar:
This is a no brainer issue that requires a simple fix.

All funds paid or transferred to a POS linked account should be made unavailable or kept in lien for 3 working days, will only be cleared for withdrawal or transfer after 3 working days.

That’s how’s it done in some advanced countries, even in some countries it 7 working days, some 1 month.

I don’t know why simple things are so difficult in our country.
Money isn't being paid to the POS. They only use it to verity the pin.

It's right there in the article.
Family › Re: My Wife Has Turned My Children Against Me by BuddhaPalm(m): 6:04pm On Apr 20, 2020
Your children should "fear" you more than they do their mother.

If Mopol tell you make you lie down and army say make you enter gutter...

I am sure you will comply with the soldier.

Which one is kneeling down to beg your wife?

You've been weak all over the place, and this is the result.

Luizkid:
No problem giving to the Government to support the fight but the Parishioners are right, Charity ought to have begun from home.
Right from the article:

"The Archbishop later revealed that the support offered to Lagos State Government was in addition to the provisions for the poor that he directed the over 180 parishes of the Archdiocese to make in their different localities spread all over the State."

Also, this isn't from a parish, but from the archdiocese covering the entire state.

About 1.3 million people die from car crashes every year.

Why haven't we banned cars?

Tobacco causes about 7 million deaths annually. Obesity, 2.7 million.

And there are many many other horsemen...

Anyone with a gun can kill ,even 8yrs boy no big deal. 500k determine youths armed with local guns can crush the Nigeria security outfits with 24hrs. Am sure thats less than 1% of the total youth population of this country. But we are just so dumb and timid even sheep cant be so dumb.
Sorry, not true.

Tanks plus all sorts of armored vehicles, bombers, artillery, training etc ensures this will be a one-sided massacre no matter how many times you run this experiment.

Why remove her plate number and reign curses on her and attempting to slap her? Is that the right attitude of a road officer in a situation like this?
What she just did is called assault with a deadly weapon.

Many police officers are corrupt, yes. But they are also officers of the law.

Romance › Re: Is It True That All Women Have The Same Pattern Of Behavior? by BuddhaPalm(m):
"As women are a considerable, or, at least, a pretty numerous part of company; and as their suffrages go a great way towards establishing a man’s character in the fashionable part of the world, which is of great importance to the fortune and figure he proposes to make in it, it is necessary to please them.

I will, therefore, upon this subject, let you into certain arcana that will be very useful for you to know, but which you must, with the utmost care, conceal and never seem to know.

Women, then, are only children of a larger growth; they have an entertaining tattle, and sometimes wit; but for solid reasoning, good sense, I never knew in my life one that had it, or who reasoned or acted consequentially for four-and-twenty hours together.

Some little passion or humour always breaks in upon their best resolutions.

Their beauty neglected or controverted, their age increased or their supposed understandings depreciated, instantly kindles their little passions, and overturns any system of consequential conduct that in their most reasonable moments they have been capable of forming.

A man of sense only trifles with them, plays with them, humours and flatters them, as he does with a sprightly, forward child; but he neither consults them about nor trusts them with, serious matters; though he often makes them believe that he does both, which is the thing in the world that they are proud of."

------ Lord Chesterfield, March 9, 1748 (In a letter to his son)

seankafor:
forget..
If you get money, your problem go less
You'll just get a different set of problems:

1. Security: paranoia about getting kidnapped or murdered by wives, children, relatives, business associates and others who'll stand to gain from your demise.

2. Being on guard from most people trying to use you.

3. Excessive famzing: Becomes hard to get genuine friends. Since most will put on a show just for you.

4. Not being treated as a person, but as a wallet by old friends and family.

5. Loneliness.

6 Anxiety about losing your wealth.

7. Boredom: when you're trying to make ends meet, most of your time gets occupied by work. If you get rich enough, one of your biggest problems would be having nothing to do.

You know all those fun things you could only engage in a few times, in the past, because of financial constraints?

They are no longer that fun after you've done them a million times...

8. Existential crisis: One of the biggest ones.

Once you get to the top of this mountain, and realise it isn't all it's made out to be...

You'll begin to contemplate some of the important questions of life:

- What is the purpose of life?
- What is the purpose of my life?
- Is there a meaning to this all?

You could even get depressed.

This is why a lot of the rich and famous turn to drugs and sometimes suicide.

Becoming rich is a worthwhile goal for everyone to aim for...

But you should also steel your mind in advance, as it has it's own set of problems.

Investnow2017:
I understand you to mean that everything will return to normalcy. That makes me to feel that you seem to be underrating the magnitude of what has just happened to the world. Never in the history of mankind have nations of the world had to close borders, render millions of their workforce redundant, render school age children helpless at home and restrict movements and even go as far as defining how citizens must conduct themselves in public.

Do you know that not even the WWII did this to the world? The far reaching consequences and implications of what has just happened to the world will be unprecedented and so will nationalistic attitudes towards international relations post-convid-19 hectic season.

A factor will be which nation eventually comes up with the right vaccine or cure. Should it be China, what do you think will be the thinking of everyone?

Without a doubt nations henceforth will tread more cautiously with China and the implications of that will not be minimal. Don't tell me now that the CCP is not somewhat jittery. Iran and Brazil are major trade partners of China, but their comments recently speak volumes not to mention other nations that are mutely focusing on battling with the virus.

The pain for each nation is that China which mishandled this saga is celebrating victory while other nations are scouting for burial places to lay their dead loved ones courtesy this virus.

Things will never be the same again. Just as there was a heightened sense of security post 9/11 so it will be in nations' attitude towards China, and this will no doubt influence international policies from nation to nation. To think that it will be business as usual is, to me, an attempt to underrate the magnitude of this pandemic.
Things might not change as much as you think.

The US dropped 2 two nukes on Japan, today US is their second biggest trading partner (nation).

The US killed close to a million North Vietnamese during the Vietnam war, today, the US is their largest trading partner.

International commerce doesn't remember past conflicts.

China should get ready to become to pariah nation of the World sooner than later. No COUNTRY will want to have anything to do with China after this. The US will attack China definitely
Nobody is going to attack China.

Even in the 60's, when they had a conflict with the USSR, the Soviets were wisely terrified of it getting out of hand.

In 50's, during the Korean War, China threw the US out or North Korea.

Now imagine the China of today.
