The west is the only democratic region where all and sundry from allover the world can move to and have equal opportunities for all.

You enter the western region an economic refugee and you live to see your children become multi-millioniares and political leaders. Shaping the direction of these countries.

Show me where that happens in authoritarian china and Russia.

The USA is certainly the best world power anyone could have wished for.

You need to have your head checked if you are supporting an evil dictator like Putin, ayatollah of Iran and china.

Look at China, the richest billionaire jack ma has basically been silenced by the government and his company basically stripped from him because he dared to complain against the government. Has such ever happened to Elon musk, bill gates and the likes before?

These people censor their citizens and control the flow of information unlike US and other democracies where the citizens can source for information from wherever they like, of you don't like CNN or fox, well, there is Rogan or newsmax or 4chan or whatever conspiratorial hell hole you want unfiltered and unverified information from. You will not be punished for seeking any unclassified information.

It could also be argued that it's why standing on principles is more important than having positions vacillate based on who's expressing an opinion. Raumdeuter that's today saying subsidy removal is the best thing since sliced bread was then arguing that the removal was ill-timed, even though the economic conditions were better then than they are today.
The BAT that removed the subsidy today then wrote an essay that is just as relevant today as it was then, but because he was looking to get power in 11 or so year's time, he played an active role in Nigeria pissing away its opportunity to remove subsidy removal.

As I've just said, NEVER expect objectivity from dayo as far as politics is concerned. The tribal bias is extreme.

Blueray has posted here before how dayo himself was vehemently against subsidy removal under Jonathan.

Today he has changed mouth because his person has said the same.

When you catch dayo in contradiction of himself, he smiles and deflects as to how it shows that he's smart in making any side of an argument. It's all about winning an argument even though lives are involved.
Tufia!

BlueRayDick:
I rest my case!

These are the things I saw when I always attacked his political submissions.

As far as politics is concerned, dayo can NEVER be objective.

The bias is too strong. I went hard on him because of this insensitivity to our plight especially coming from his lofty position far away but you guys kept shouting me down.

Enjoy his insensitivity and braggadocio in the face of our suffering. You guys laid down this bed for him. Enjoy it.

Seun:
It's been a pleasure serving all of you since 2005!

Seun your birthday gift to me should be unbanning my main account of 10 years. The moniker is "donjazet". Please seun. I'm begging.

Imagine deluding yourself soo much as to call a murderous tyrant like Putin a "gentleman".

Man, some of you have been soo brainwashed by Russian propaganda and anti-western propaganda that you guys can't think straight again..

Putin that has willfully murdered millions of people in Ukraine and turned their lives upside down.

I pray that you guys get to experience the horrors of the Ukrainians someday In your life.

Russia getting a small taste of its own medicine.

Kudos Ukraine. make sure you destroy the entire bridge next time. Cut that supply route off.

Emaprince:
But the way adult women dey molest small small children..it's never reported.

These women will be forming hard to get sometimes, meanwhile Konji dey wound them. When they get home, they pounce on the innocent underage boys in the building .

Emma, you really are surprising me. You're a poster here I actually admire greatly. Quite sad to see some of these things you're saying.

Unlimited22:
Donjazzet, I Really REALLY pray that you won't learn the hard way by being accused of something that you are innocent of.

I pray that's not what it takes to clear your doubt.
For your sake and that of your family, I pray it NEVER gets to that level. Seriously.

What exactly makes you say this??

Reading this your post, one might think I may not sympathetic to those who have been accused falsely.

Have I ever made such point?? Didn't I say I even wish to see the Mendy accusers face their comeuppance? So from whence is this sentiment of yours coming from?

Before I made my post yesterday, I saw many commenters who because of this issue were essentially painting the entire female gender as opportunists and golddiggers and I had to set the record straight that because this has happened to Mendy, doesn't mean that indeed women themselves are not at greater risk in the society to men by virtue of stats and facts. So where is this post of yours coming from, please?

US Treasury: Helping Ukraine is the best thing you can do for the global economy

“Ending this war is first and foremost a moral imperative,” Yellen told reporters in Gandhinagar. But it is also the best we can do for the global economy,” she added.

According to Yellen, "doubling our support for Ukraine" in its defense against the Russian Federation is a "key priority."

Victory for Ukraine as they recapture the village of staromaiorske.

Gradually gradually we are getting there. Everyday the Ukrainians inch closer to their goal of freedom!!

Slava ukraina.

Time would tell.

The nato alliance are now producing weapons at a faster pace than Russia can.

Only time would tell. Let's see what summer has in store for us.

Bombblacks:
I used coerce to encompass a variety of situations In which an individual can be alleged to give consent. A girl in the midst of a group of boys in a room can consent to one of them because she fears for her safety if she refuses. In this scenario the boys didn't even do anything and to them she give in willingly but unknown to them just their sheer presence forces her into saying yes. What do you call that? A girl visit a guy and sleeps the night with no intention of sex but then the guys asks for it and like in my earlier example she gives in. They are so many examples and scenarios I can bring up.

Your posts were very self explanatory. Anybody who read it will immediately understand what you meant.

There are different nonverbal forms of coercion. Some people may have sex without any physical violence but the decision to have that sex didn't come from common ground between the 2.

This place is an overwhelmingly predominantly male dominated space so the toxic masculinity on display is expected with everyone trying to outdo themselves in hyper-masculinity. Except of course when it comes to addressing the ills of a fellow member.

Emaprince:
Una still dey entertain this attention seeker.

Some one that is rejected and couldnt get any attention in real life from their weak men who fight Nigerians for having the best game that snatches all their women away, is here trying to get attention and una dey oblige her.

In a section full of Nigerian men..her panties is wetting already.

Ignore this girl, people.

I'm surprised by some of the things you're saying.

Senator Lindsey graham calls for more support for the Ukrainian war.

Mille:
This is a very stupid take and comparison.

And here I was thinking I would "exchange views without hate speech".

You guys are something else.

And maybe you should check the meaning of autocracy. Putin has basically made himself president for life. A country where opposition is murdered, imprisoned and persecuted is certainly not a democracy.

Cameroon has had a single president for 40 years, just like guinea. Yet the citizens go to the polls. Polls that are already rigged or results are already known due to state manipulation.

That is autocracy. One where there is no viable opposition. Russia is one. No one should be president for almost 25 years like Putin has been.

Kingsnairaland:
Well not every one can see the big picture of what Russia is fighting for,

It good to have them as opposing views if only they can air their opinion without hate speech lol.

Fine, you have my curiosity.

Please as briefly as you can, tell me why on earth are you supporting Russia, an autocratic regime, ruthlessly invading another sovereign country.

I, for example apply the standards to others that I apply for myself. I sure as hell wouldn't like any other country to invade me claiming that I must join them by force when a vast majority of my countrymen don't want to join them.

I enjoy the perks of democracy. I like the fact that no matter as buhari or Jonathan or any of my state governor, no matter how they Bleep up reach, they must surely come down from there when their time is up.

So I can't see myself supporting an autocratic country against a democratic country.

What about you?

WHY DO YOU SUPPORT RUSSIA?

Masterviolence:
Does that mean the u.s made them so?

Well for all intent and purposes, YES!!

The US are directly responsible for the post-war economic prosperity of south Korea, and Japan and many European nations via the martial plan of which countries like Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, West Germany and France and lesser extent (Taiwan) were the biggest beneficiaries seeing as these were the major theaters of war.

Without the infusion of liquid cash from the US, influencing of economic agenda setting and subsequent multi-decade "military payments" running into several billions, these countries wouldn't have the capital to have kick-started their economies and not to forget, protection from communist Soviet and what their economy has grown to what it is today.

So again, YES! The US is directly responsible for the speedy recovery of some of these countries and outright growth of the others.

WrriterNig:
⚡🇬🇪 Georgian PM Irakli Garibashvili:

"We heard direct statements that 🇺🇦 Ukraine could not become a NATO member until it defeated Russia.

If Ukraine defeat 🇷🇺 Russia, why does it need NATO membership?"

This question is a very stupid question.

Because in this context, "defeating Russia" is not necessarily invading them and overpowering them completely.

The west is seeking to inflict a "strategic defeat", which means simply removing Russia out of Ukraine. Pushing Russia out of Ukraine and recovering Crimea.

If that happens, that will be a humiliating loss for Russia on the international stage but it wouldn't be a complete defeat and subjugation like Nazi Germany or Japan which the conquering nations now occupied fully.

So to answer this question, if the west achieves it's aim which is to essentially send Russia back, the aim of Ukraine entering NATO will now be against any FUTURE threat from any non-nato allied force.

Itsrm:
Is it a crime?

Nobody is saying it's a crime. He made an analogy towards something else and people are pointing out that even if it's not a crime, that doesn't mean it's alright. There is still "wrongness" there.

Emaprince:
No mind Donj. He refused to accept that the feminism we have today is no longer what it was originated for.

Actually it's still the same. It's just that a lot of people like you seek to highlight voices of "extremists" as if they define the whole movement and use those extremists as a means to denigrate the entire idea.

You guys fail to ever highlight the nuances.

A plain example, once any entitled girl talks about how she expects a man to spend untop of her head. Even though this is antithetical to the core ideology of feminism, you guys will say that that is what feminism is. The privilege of men spending while female holds power. The persistent attempt to do damage to that word "feminism".

There are rational feminists and there are irrational feminists, what doesn't change is the ideology itself which seeks equal rights for women across board.

raumdeuter:
Because he feels the urge to have sex like every male which is not a crime as long as he didn't force them and it was consensual

Actually, there is a power play there which makes it wrong. Just like a boss in a work place and a junior staffer. There is a power dynamic there which makes it difficult for the lower person to fully express their minds whether they truly want it or not for fear of ostracization and the knowledge of negative consequences if they turn down the approach.

I agree with you that it is very hypocritical for a man to have said that.

Kholiwe:
"""They want a world where a wife will get humped by another man, and the hubby will understand her reasons for doing that and tries to make it work."""

This is coming from a gender that goes around fucking different girls even when married. This is coming from a gender that wants the freedom to marry more than 5 wives. When these double standards gets called out this one will start calling women bitter. The privilege should be for only men 😂

There are many men who feel that there are entitled to fvck many men but the women should not have any such entitlement.
If a man fvcks around, it's him being a "player". If a woman fvcks around, it's her being a "hoe". Nothing shows a woman's disadvantage in society more than this.

seankafor:
on a steady bro..

Thing is, if you love a woman, you'd be emotionally blackmailed and gaslighted by them and you'd legit fall for it..

They just need to put up that their usual emotional cry and you'd fall legit for it no cap 🧢..

3 times my mom cried and I was emotionally abused and gaslighted..

Almost fought physically with my uncle when he had a little argument with my mom, something she could have handled.. she dropped some tears at the middle of the argument and I went gun blazing to the nigga..

Second was when I wanted to sell my property.. mehn my own property I bought with my money, woman legit let out tears.. I falled for the shiit like pack of cards and had to call back the people that bought the stuffs.. ended up spending 20k extra because I had to refund them both in transport and convenience..

Mehn . Love legit makes one weak..

They'd start telling you how dey bore you for 9 months, and suffered bla bla bla.. and crown it all with their tears..

Wtf 😒

Reading this and have to say, not saying these in a negative way but you might legit have sociopathic issues brought upon by mummy issues. Please don't take this wrongly.

Please educate yourselves, I beg you.

larride:
Anyone who was on Twitter during 2020/2021 known the extent this toxic Naija feminist can go to ruin someone live with false rape accusation.

Almost everyday, there were different rape allegations against men on Twitter then (majority of the accusations were false), you must believe the victim irrespective of how ridiculous the story was or you will be tagged a rape apologist. They even created a list like that where they kept adding names of men they term rape apologist.

It wasn't until a particular guy committed suicide from the false accusation because nobody was even ready to listen to him that men like Odanz, Jack and the likes started pushing back.

Dr Olufunmilayo that was the chief male feminists apologist and always the first to shout rapist whenever any story broke was then sensationally accused of rape, he spent almost a year trying to clear his name even taking his accuser to court. He has left Twitter for more than a year now.

When they accused the brother of one of the feminist of rape, we started seeing a lot of defense from the feminist for her brother and bla bla bla.

Rape is a serious offense and anybody that rape should have his manhood castrated and rot in jail but let's not downplay the fact that lady has been ruining alot of guys life with false accusation of rape because they will always get away with it .

Your last statement is indeed true but like I said earlier, the prevalence of both issues are very wide in disparity.

One offense does not cancel out the other.

The percentage of women who "falsely accuse" men of rape is farrr less than the percentage of men who actually do rape and then physically assault women..

And furthermore, this issue of "false rape accusation" is a bye product of laws that were made to indeed protect women who were factually being disadvantaged in the society. I would then point out that these laws are not even a thing in the vast majority of countries. So women are still heavily disadvantaged. They're still on the short end of the stick.

What we should do is call for stronger rules that both protects women and then punish the few who misuse that privilege.

So it's fair to say that you all wrongly classify feminists as "bitter" people.
It's fair to say many of you don't even understand the meaning of that word, just like many don't understand the meaning of the word "woke" but throw these words around casually and in a denigrating manner.

Ignorance should not be celebrated.

Learn more on concepts of issues before applying their usage.

Feminism is inherently a good thing.

Being "woke" is inherently a good thing. These are both social justice issues aimed at addressing systemic injustices against disadvantaged groups. If you don't understand these concepts but you are denigrating them, then you need to check yourself.

If you do understand these concepts and you are against them, you also need to check yourself and your ideals. You are part of a problem in the society.

Emaprince:
I have already answered you on what their movement was. Today the word "feminism" connotes toxicity and bitterness. Check all the women championing the movement now, all they have to speak about men is evil.

Sorry I didn't see that. Could you emphasize this for me please.

Can you give me your definition of feminism even "in today's context" as you put it?

Slovakia, Lithuania and Estonia, a block of the Baltic states, jointly approve a military package worth 300 million euros. They comprise of rocket propellers, missiles and armaments. Also contribute 30 million euros to humanitarian aid.

Emaprince:
Feminists of the old may have a valid reason for their movement..which is mainly a fight for equal right. The ones we have now have abused it..and they are out to emasculate and destroy men.

I appreciate the answer but you still didn't address the main question.

You've used the word, feminist a lot. I'm asking, what exactly do you understand that word to be, because you seem to always use it in a negative sense. So I'm asking, what do you believe the word "feminism" means?

Emaprince:
Men are always expected to bottle up. If you speak up, you will be tagged a weak man.

It's one-sided world. Just make western men keep their laws over there and continue to punish their men over the slightest accusation from bitter femists.

One question Emmanuel, what do see as feminism? What do you understand by feminism and lastly, do you see all feminists as bitter people?

Edit; you just said, "men are expected to bottle up". Now the question is, "by who". Is it not the same men too who have made it very difficult for other men to show emotions?
And wouldn't you want that situation to change? What you just described has a term, called "toxic masculinity". One where it is societally expected of men to not show any kind of emotion.

For example, if a man publicly shows love towards his woman, it's now called "simping". He is belittled for showing an emotional side and we all take part in that. That's just an example.
