What changed 60yrs ago that made blacks who used to be family oriented suddenly stop caring or incentivized to leave their family

Maybe its God who changed his recipe for making blacks in the last 60yrs or maybe its your bogeyman racism white man who forced pregnancy on the women and chased the men away
Stop dancing around and give the answer.
After all your racist hero Charlie Kirk gave his own answer: that there weren't equal rights for blacks. That was his reason.
Give yours.

Another response to this. Could you select one Caucasian tribe and conclude that since they were belligerent over centuries then Europeans as a whole would not make progress? Does that make sense to you?

Yet that is exactly what you have done here.

And mark: no African violence can hold a candle to the violence of Europe in terms of breadth, scale, age, repetition, and sheer brutality.

What choices are we making today? Or do we keep blaming the circumstances of our birth?
Of course not, its work in progress and its not a journey of a single day or even a single lifetime.
I just reminded TV01 how your beloved Israel has literally been in the same conflict for thousands of years, since he ws bringing up the conflict of the Fulani and Yoruba as proof that Africa will stagnate or regress in the next 200 years.

By the way do you share that view?
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by DeepSight(m): 4:22pm On May 19
TV01:
It is a prevailing tendency of theirs. A large part of the Fulani cultural makeup and FD. Animating bloodshed and wholescale slaughter and you would rather it ignored - even as your people are dying undecided

Used metaphorically to show how the FD of most of these peoples and nations will not change without some great impetus. It has take them millenia to arrive at, and solidify their culture as it exists. I have already pointed out the SA donning their animal skins and chasing other Africans with their assegais grin. What of the wretched mess that is Somalia? And their FD being exported worldwide tongue.

Really? You asked how things would be in a 100 years. Two hundred years ago the foula gee.hard had to be stopped by the Yoruba forcibly. At Osogbo. They are now attempting the very same thing again - albeit on a national scale. https://www.nairaland.com/4325932/termination-fulani-jihad-yorubas-1840.

In the interim period, the world has advanced tremendously. The foula themselves have witnessed it, yet this - gee.hard.? Could you please explain why things will be any different in a 100 years time? Unless they are subdued? Why do you anticipate their FD changing in 100 years when it has remained steady for 200? Despite the tremendous pace of modernity - on view to all?


TV
I grant that certain things tend to be like a recurring decimal among certain people. If I mention the history of Israel and how they are still stuck in violent cycles you will not want to hear that one will you?

Nonetheless it doesnt make sense to claim that you cannot see progress in black African nations even within your lifetime.

Happily, you dont have to admit it. It will occur regardless of your opinion. And even if it didnt occur, your lifetime is too small to be the judge of the matter. How many people lived and died through the stagnant middle ages of Europe?

There can and will be an African Renaissance.

Pls dont try to flip your own logic on me. Its tctrills that brought Peruvian desert into the matter and I am asking you if Peru is now a developed first world country. If it is not then the argument you were championing falls apart on that score.

This is aside the fact that I troubled myself to extract the differences in the deserts. In fact, one dessert helps another, but forget it. You guys are too lazy for that level.

No, you are wrong but then, let me use your analogy.
Choices we make at puberty affects our adulthood.
So if a girl chooses to become pregnant and become a mother of 4 in her teen years, would you be surprised if she doesn't complete school?
So what choices are we are a race making now in our puberty?
If you know the bold to be true, you have been wasting our time arguing against the obvious.
Can you also discount the circumstances of birth?

Abi it doesn't matter if someone was a homeless orphan and you compare his struggle to that of Dangote's child?
And if he reminds you that he was a homeless orphan you shout "excuses!"

Unless you dont believe in cause and effect, even for them, there is a cause, a reason, and explanation for everything. That is the law of cause and effect. Unless you believe in voodoo.

So when you say things like - oh the problem is absentee husbands. Please follow up with "Why?" Rather than make it appear as though God created blackmen with that unique tendency.

When tctrills says oh, its leadership and corruption, he should do the same - ask why such poor leadership and why such corruption, rather than make it appear as though it comes naturally with black skin.

And when someone is giving you well researched scientific answers, all you can do is throw up your hands and shout "excuses!"

Nope. I am saying the FD of the fuoola peoples means they will not achieve your desired state of modernity under their own steam.

And, unless you can show otherwise, I see nothing natal that will cause the fuoola FD to incline towards what is required to advance to modernity under it's own steam. Simply citing time does not cut it. External intervention perhaps...hmmm...let's not go there.

Please note, the expansionist mindset of the fuoola was extant prior to colonialism. The Yoruba have had to fight them off prior and the emirate of Ilorin stands as testament to their gee.hard.eest mindset. Does the fact that hundreds of years later, despite all the advances and global visibility of what modernity could look like, the fuoola, still insist on the medieval ways - spreading across the sahel as we speak.

The Fulani are not the only tribe in Nigeria and even within the Fulani the reprobate and violent tendency is not the only tendency.
I asked you a question about where black Africans will be in a century, its not sufficient to point to one violent tendency in one tribe and end your analysis there, concluding that on that account, the entirety of black Africa will either stagnate or regress.

There is progress everywhere if only you are not prejudiced to see it.

EXTRACTED:

​While both the Atacama/Peruvian Desert system (often collectively referred to as the Peruvian coastal desert) and the Sahara Desert are hyper-arid environments, they possess vastly different ecological profiles, soil compositions, and "fertility" dynamics.
​When comparing their fertility, we have to look at two distinct dimensions: agricultural potential (with human intervention) and natural ecological productivity.

​1. Atacama / Peruvian Coastal Desert
​Despite being one of the driest places on Earth, the Peruvian desert strip is an agricultural miracle when managed properly, driven by unique geographical and geological factors.

​Soil Composition: The soil is primarily composed of mineral-rich volcanic ash, alluvial deposits from the Andes, and sand. It lacks organic matter but is incredibly rich in phosphorus, potassium, and trace minerals.

​The Andean Advantage: The desert is crisscrossed by over 50 rivers flowing down from the Andes Mountains. This creates fertile river valleys (oases) that cut through the arid landscape.

​The Humboldt Current & Camanchaca: The cold ocean current creates a thick, dense fog called camanchaca. This fog provides moisture that sustains unique, specialized ecosystems called Lomas—isolated islands of vegetation in the desert that bloom with flowers and shrubs purely from fog moisture.

​Agricultural Output: Because the soil is a blank canvas rich in minerals, the introduction of modern drip irrigation (using trapped Andean runoff) has turned the Peruvian desert into a global agricultural powerhouse, yielding high-value exports like asparagus, blueberries, avocados, and grapes.

​2. The Sahara Desert
​The Sahara is the largest hot desert in the world. Its sheer scale means its fertility is highly fragmented, resting on ancient geological remnants and subterranean water.

​Soil Composition: The Sahara is largely covered by shifts of sand dunes (ergs), stone plateaus (hamadas), and gravel plains (regs). The soil is heavily weathered, highly alkaline, and generally lacks the fresh volcanic mineral wealth found in Peru.

​Fossil Aquifers & Oases: Natural fertility in the Sahara is almost entirely localized around oases, which are fed by massive underground fossil aquifers (like the Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System). Where this water reaches the surface, the soil is highly productive, supporting date palms, figs, olives, and citrus.

​The Dust Export (Global Fertility): Ironically, while the Sahara's soil isn't highly fertile in situ, it is a major source of fertility for the rest of the planet. High winds lift millions of tons of nutrient-rich Saharan dust across the Atlantic Ocean. This dust is loaded with phosphorus and iron, acting as a crucial fertilizer for the Amazon Rainforest and marine phytoplankton in the Atlantic.
