This is worth a read-

That was a very brilliant write-up. Sense no go kill that writer.

That was the same thing some were doing here by equating my attack of dayos tribalism as an attack on all Yorubas.
The APC goons consistently cloak every political discussions via tribe. It's unfortunate.

BlueRayDick:
Issokay .

What is my own sef ? If they like make dem burn the airport and state house next after the house of assembly .

It's about the political structure of PDP in Rivers state ; Wetin concern me ? 🤷‍♂️

This is the stupidity of the masses we talk about.
These wicked leaders will continue being evil because they are educated fools willing to continue enabling them.
Defending the indefensible. Because why on earth will any reasonable human being on this earth defend Wike of all people??

Like, you hear that the thief is asking for billions of naira of state funds and you're rushing to defend him? What do you stand to gain?
Some nigerians sef ehh!
This is why we will remain where we are. Ordinary masses bearing the brunt of bad governance offering themselves us as useful idiots_ for these corrupt thieves who don't care about you.

Amoto, Oasis, is this picture accurate??

Is this verse actually correct?

Ebukacute:
I lost my mom to the cold hands of death yesterday morning.... Omo I just can't get over this experience. Kai! Since yesterday night I have seen another side of life that I haven't experienced before.

I'm very sorry for your loss. Please take heart.

2 state solution requires willing counterparty to negotiations. That has been off the table since Hamas took over Gaza

Ibime do you use Reddit?

Troll farms

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_farm

There is a new cold war. The West will support Isreal. BRICS will support PALESTINE ( Even BRICS get k leg as India hates yes hates Muslims) . Incidentally this is exactly how it was during the old cold War. South Africa was supported by the west and opposed by the soviets. So an ANC run south Africa will always align with Russia.

Thanks for that Wiki link. I've always personally suspected that APC runs a troll farm going by some shenanigans you see from some of their agents accounts on front page.

Ibime:
Palestinians have always had the left wing sympathies, anti-apartheid sympathies, Arab and Muslim sympathies, Nazi sympathies, and now Z people (Russian) and far-right sympathies. Their coalition of various groups is broader, and with social media, they have more voice. Social media also incentives outrage over plain talk so their viewpoint will be shared more. There are also state actors with social media farms like Russia, Qatar that will be promoting and sharing it.

Hmm. I'm very surprised Russia will be supporting Palestine when they have a prominent Jewish population. Just imagine Putin who used pro-jewish sentiment as a reason for invading Ukraine now supporting Israel's attackers.

Please what do you mean by social media farms? I've been hearing about it but never grasped it fully.
What is social media farms?

A001:
I'm not here for meaningless back-and-forth. If this forum has a block button, I for don block some imbes here.

This is very ironical seeing as every single person on this thread would have blocked you by now for being a menace on the thread by now.

vanitybutiwanti:
Social media will transform an angel to a serpent and a serpent to an angel, social media will cause world war 3 if its not regulated

What in particular are you referring to?

Ibime:
Palestinians are actually winning the PR war very handsomely

It's almost impossible for Israel to win a PR war except they did not retaliate at all

I'm actually very surprised about this.
How is this possible? Who is really behind this Palestine PR that even citizens of western countries will now boldly be anti-Semitic?

Is there a secret power behind this pr victory for Palestine?

Secure your passwords.

The global economy today.

He really can't stop finding ways to take shot at me.
Always in his head.

Emaprince:
Na only me dey see all this Nihilist in one post

That's because it's literally a word, that bests qualifies what I'm trying to depict.

BlueRayDick:
You are the only one that knows why you are getting unnecessarily emotional about a very simple and straightforward post.

All I can read from that Ibime's post is :

The people are at the mercy of gangsters who have been armed over the years in their struggle against FG neglect , environmental degradation in Niger Delta as a result of oil exporation, etc. The gangsters/warlords are key players and determinant factors in the political environment down there. The people can shout from now till tomorrow but the moment the guys with the guns come out to point to a particular political direction, the normal citizens have no choice but to obey and follow else they suffer loss of lives or properties.

How is he justifying anything here ? I didn't read anywhere he praised Wike in his post

Honestly u are sounding as if u just want to have something to complain about where there's none

Well, maybe perhaps it's my utter prejudice towards abroadians finding every imaginable way to condescendingly paint a completely irredeemable and incessant negative view of the country at play here. I'm not taking kindly to the sorta gleeful negative description because within me, I think that when we speak out about the country woes, we do it from a place of concern and the impact on us , but for them, it's a leisurely sport. A game.
And that statement, "people don't matter", highlights for me what I think is that irredeemable negative view of our society. Forgive the rant.

This is what people are justifying.

BlueRayDick:
Na wa for u o

So out of all the factual things Ibime said in the post, na only "People don't matter " u want to latch on and u are almost immediately referring to him as not being good minded because he's saying things the way he saw it to be. smh


Now why do u have issues with Ibime saying things the way they are ?

Because behind those words are a visible nihilistic view towards our society.

I normally listen to ibime but that singular phrase captures the whole essence of his message. PEOPLE DON'T MATTER.
But they infact do. There is a thin line between realism and nihilism.
And not to mention that a lot of what he says are very unverifiable and without sources which leaves us at the mercy of untruths and word of mouth summations.

Using your example of ipob, ipob is succeeding because some of the people, the average masses themselves are enabling them. The sit at home is thriving because a lot of people, THE PEOPLE, actually key into it.

Same as the rivers situation where the situation is like that because of people's passivity and acceptance. Things haven't changed because the PEOPLE accept it.
I will say again, proclaiming boldly that "people don't matter" is a very bad outlook, a damning nihilistic indictment which should not be accepted by anyone.

Just imagine a situation whereby supposed intelligent masses are basically defending genuinely bad people and creating rationalisations for their evil actions.
What a pity.

"PEOPLE DON'T MATTER".

That is a very terrible outlook towards any society. The very worst.
Those words should never be uttered, not by a good minded person.

A001:
Kids don dey play around as usual. When the intelligent ones discuss salient issues, the children can only play around with sand since their brain never mature.

Cam you name one person on this thread who you believe is "intelligent"?
Because you've called almost everyone on this thread low IQ but keep pestering us the low people relentlessly.

Can you name a single person on this board who you think is "intelligent" according to you?
Because it's foolishness and a waste of time to keep wasting your efforts on us the low IQ people, don't you think?

Today I learned that we already have a universal language.

Sign language used for the deaf and dumb is a universal language which bridges communication gaps across all countries.
Infact all linguistics professionals all compulsorily learn sign language.

The same sign language used for deaf people in Cambodia is the same sign language used for deaf people in Senegal, seeing as deaf people don't hear different languages.

So try if you can to learn the universal sign language.
Deaf people don't care about your local languages.

We've started quite well.

Nice attempt from madueke.

Na blueray Dem dey draw like tiger 🐅 gen this hot afternoon

His positions today is highly awkward.

It's fvcked up to defend the nonsense from Kate.
Her fundraising for APC is an absolute hypocrisy.
She has spent the better part of last year positioning herself as a people's voice. Even castigating other celebrities like seyilaw, Eniola badmus and the rest for attending APC functions. To now do that same thing now is her going against her standards.

It's the equivalent of me suddenly endorsing Tinubu and this evil government. It absolutely makes no sense.

Magnoliaa:
So why did they get into activism in the first place? Did anybody force them to posture?

Are your comments against Tinubu on here putting food on your table? Why are you creating a false argument when nobody says anybody should make activism a day job? Who said activism is meant to put food on people's tables?

Activism doesn't put food on people's tables, but it demands other things. Consistency for one. You don't chook your head inside and turn around to remove your head when you see it's not beneficial anymore. Okay, you can do that, but people still have a right to call it out—play the ostrich all you want.

🔥🔥
Well said.

Magnoliaa:
'Don't look to anybody to be your role model' but you people will drag 'slay queens and social media baddies' for how they are influencing young, impressionable girls into setting some kind of standards in relationships.


Suddenly it is not important to have visible, upright public figures as beacons of morality and values in politics anymore. Everything is definitely isolated and there are no trickle-down or upward consequences for collective behaviour in the society.


Yawnss.

The double standards here today is absolutely disgusting.
If you can't call one out for hypocrisy, what is then the aim of all we do here in the name of politics?

What is wrong with teejay? This is really troubling behavior.
Will you fight every single person on this board? What's up with your very thin skin?

Seen on nigerian Reddit.
The responding comments were funnier.

seankafor:
so why den do you say crypto transactions can not be traced?

Even a coin you send from centralized exchange can be traced.. but this time at the mercy of the exchange providers ..

But anything you do on any Dex can be tracked traced by any third party whatsoever

I thought ibime once said there is how you would mix or mesh the crypto via a certain app and then it becomes untraceable??
Are you saying every crypto transaction is traceable? Every single one?

But we voted GEJ out because dollar got to 200

Now we're defending 1200

What a time to be alive

This is what really gets me mad with the APC folks today. The hypocritical double standards.

In 2015, APC's selling point to we the electorate was that the new fuel prices of 140 per liter was absolutely terrible for the masses.
That dollar going up to 200 from 150 was absolutely terrible.
These were highlighted as major failures of governance by president Jonathan. And many bright eyed nigerians bought into that intense nasty politicking against Jonathan.

Nationwide protests were held against Jonathan and Jonathan did not give the protests an ethnic coloration unlike today where any protest against bad governance is given an ethnic coloration by the APC as a divide and rule tactics carried out by their tribalistic herd and paid propagandists.

Today, somehow the standards have changed, there is now a deep rationalization of the APC's misgovernance and misrule. A rationalization not afforded to Jonathan. As I said, any organized protest by the masses is automatically coloured as tribally motivated.

These APC folks today disgusts me soo much.

Every single thing they complained about Jonathan is now 10 times worse under the APC but somehow these demons many of who are not impacted by this misgovernance continue to this day to support this terrible government.
Shining teeth with us, biting us and blowing breeze. Biting us and blowing breeze, not seeing the melancholic mockery and shamelessness that shines through them.
What a pity.

Donjazet is a Buharist.

I summarise it best as this;
2015 - pro APC\ anti-PDP
2019- Anti -pdp (protest vote).
And maybe I was indeed wrong for that 2019 vote.

No way Atiku would have been worse than Buhari. But anti-corruption has been my strongest word since I became politically conscious and corruption issues always determined who will ultimately get my vote. Fair to say PDP has been a child's play when it comes to the institutional multilayered corruption under APC. One that is set to continue under the grand looter of Lagos in the coming years.
