What point were you making? And who are the "they" that are shouting about institutional racism?
You have to get over this notion that banging on your keyboard and stringing right wing outrages of the day together is an argument or even a coherent thought worthy of discussion.
There's not much you or Basilico say that's coherent or intelligent.

You have Claudine Gay, Fani Willis, Alvin Brag, Leticia James, Tiffany Henyard the First Woman (Black Woman) Mayor of Dolton, Ill. arrested for corruption, Lawrence Jackson of Riverdale, close to Dolton was arrested for corruption. Oh, let's not forget about Kim Fox too

One question.

Why on God’s green earth did the man put on a Trump cap? Is he a Trump fan? If yes, how is it possible that he got death threats ? Isn’t it unusual that someone who’s a supposedly Trump fan is suddenly a “target of right wing conspiracy theorists” - according to Yahoo News ? Everyone knows, including useless Obrigidiot, that Trump fans are generally conspiracy theorists. So how is this guy a target of conspiracy theorists? Na wa o !
He was a Trumpie. You're trying to make sense of senseless people. Good Luck.

Children who grow up without a father present in their lives are significantly more likely to engage in delinquent behavior and commit crimes later in life compared to peers from two-parent households.
The cognitive dissonance in you is strong. Your own 4 children do not have a father present in their lives. You are not married to their mom and in fact they live in another country from you(per your words). Let that penetrate. So they are more likely to engage in delinquent behavior and commit crimes per your post.

Men who have multiple children but don't take care of them are trash. Crazier is that you did this in Nigeria, where there are stigmas for children out of wedlock and unmarried woman. Crazier still is that you chose to knock up a teenager (19) and are gloating about it. The more of your story you reveal, the more and more of loser you reveal yourself to be. File this in "trash person doing trash things."

LMAO. There is no welfare in Nigeria. hahaha, what are you talking about? Nigerians that moved to the UK don't benefit from that too. It's a good experience. Marriage is not for me. What is there to be ashamed of? Your dad got married and gave your mom a serious beating, right? How is their marriage?

My family got into the UK, 3 months later I moved to the United States. I won't let them live in the States because I don't think it is a good country, especial for raising kids. Their mom will give me Number 5 if I want, and trust me; there is a reason for that. I am in my early 30s. She was 19 when we had the 1st one. Nice Rivers girl.

As for you grin be there and be calling someone who has his own house, children he is sending to Uni, Cars and wife your boy when you have nothing cheesy
Most of your story sounds like bullshit. But, those are your lies to live. What I find amusing about people like you; you are always the exception. You say to yourself, those Black Americans who have multiple children out of Wedlock are bad, but I have my reasons for having so many kids out of wedlock, so I'm the exception. You say those black guys over there are bad, but I'm not them so I'm the exception. It's a life chalk full of delusion, cognitive dissonance and hypocrisy. The truth is there is no difference between you and them. You are the thing you so despise. One day you'll realize that, and maybe then, you'll despise those people less. But, enjoy your delusion, I'll be here constantly reminding you of it.

So because you believe my dad was a deadbeat it cancels out the fact that you are a deadbeat? I guess that's the type of logic you get in a party of Trump where personal Responsibility doesn't matter.

My father is not responsible for the fact that you have MULPTIPLE children out of wedlock you DO NOT have custody of and you DO NOT support.

In my opinion, I believe the Democrats will seriously explot it, including President Biden. The Biden campaign is actually framing criminal trump as a threat to Democracy, and from the messaging so far, it seems it's a grave warning to everyone. So imagine SCOTUS now backs the Office of the presidency with immunity and unchecked powers, trust me the Nat Sec council will not sleep on it.

I think you understand the existential threat here.
They won't. Not how Democrats are built. Will put money on it. Democrats generally believe in the rule of law and all it's tenants.

You should be worried about your family in Nigeria. I think Bas is doing fine and he is taking care of his family. As for you, we all know naira land is where you live your dreams.

Make noise for my amusement.
You have kids you do not have custody of, who you do not financially support with a woman you were never married to. Who are you to be vouching for whether Basilico is taking care of his family when you are clearly not? There is no one in my circle who would ever be a dead-beat dad like you, while making mouth on line. It's shameful sh*t. You probably knocked up some woman thinking having a child would improve your chances of getting papers. How did that work out? Too lazy and stupid to read the law even then. What separates you from those African Americans you always pillory? Nothing! Pro Tip: I'm sure those kids of yours would benefit more by you hustling than sitting on this forum daily being Basilico's ventriloquist.

Maybe SCOTUS should grant the immunity to presidents so the current President can deem the criminal a threat to national security and democracy and actually use CIA or freelancers to finish him off, and he'll cover everything up, coz Immunity.
Most presidents color inside the lines they believe historically Presidents are constricted by. So, if the Supreme Court did decide they were immune, it would be evil people like Trump that would push those lines and take advantage. Biden wouldn't.

Good listen. Trump's lawyer argued that if Trump ordered Seal Team 6 to kill his political rival that he can only be prosecuted if he was impeached and convicted first. One of the Judges should have followed up with what if he ordered Seal Team 6 to kill all the members of the House and Senate before the impeachment hearing? Could he then be prosecuted? Unfortunately for Trump., his lawyer still gave up the argument. If Trump can be prosecuted if he is first impeached and convicted for an "official act", it means that official acts are not in themselves immune from prosecution. Still astonishing listening to a practiced lawyer making this argument. Everything Trump touches dies. He's now trying to kill our form government as we know it.

Grammar watchman. Can't even reason out that I was driving a point home wrt your lack of understanding and intelligence.
3 country holiday I guess it's Boston- Dublin- Dakar- Lagos budget route stopovers.
2 of the 3 countries I talked about in this forum. I flew direct from DC to Lagos. Returning, I had a 1 stop flight - I scheduled a 2 day layover in London. But here's the thing. Even if I had the iterninary you mentioned, so what? Have you been to any of those places? Could you even afford that ticket? For you luxury travel is taking God is Good Motors instead of a danfo bus.

For 2 people who ain't shit, don't have money and whose families are a mess, you and Benalvino3 talk a lot of shit about people's finances and families. Here's a helpful tip, if you have a baby mamma and chidlren you don't have custody of and don't support, it's probably best to STFU about people's relationships. And if you can't afford the thing you are trying to trash someone on, it's probably best to STFU as well.

My initial point was that you post a lot of easy disprovable lies that you find on Social Media about the US because you don't know any better. You've never lived in the US, nor studied it. So you have no real understanding of its culture, laws, government, people or even just it's postal system. And what do you do? You double down on that critique by posting an easily disprovable lie about Mandela (that you most likely found on social media) because you don't have any real understanding of who Nelson Mandela was to understand what you posted was contrary to his character. So, again, what point were you driving home, besides the fact that you are a colossal idiot who gets fooled by easily disprovable lies.

You spend a lot of time on here going down right wing rabbit holes. It's a mental health issue. Log off. Nigeria is hard enough. I'm sure your family misses you and would like you present... not rambling about someone half a world away that doesn't give a shit about you.

Basilico 100% correct!!!


A foolish man built his house on sand near the shore. When a storm swept in, the floods eroded the sand and the winds battered the house until it collapsed. The same man later saw a wise man build his house on solid rock atop a hill. When the next storm came, that house stood firmly against wind and rain. The foolish man finally understood that building one’s life on the unstable and unsure without wisdom leaves one vulnerable while making choices with prudence and insight leads to security.

What you just read is a parable. So Basilico was passing a message. A wise person will grapple with the message being conveyed here. Meanwhile, a less sensible reader may will focus on something else.
You avoid reckoning with the essential truths at the core of what has said.
The fool ije will say "My friend sends his daughter to Harvard, they spent time writing crap so don't criticize Harvard"

The person you call your boy is sending his daughter to University. Either you are 40 or you are a liar. Also, you are stuck at my girlfriend is this, my girlfriend is that. You have been to Naija for the 3rd time now or 2nd. The other time you spent your time there in a cheap hotel filled with prostitutes, this time you are crashing on a friend's couch 🙂 big boy.

It's embarrassing that anyone can consistently write this poorly esp. someone over 17. What can you possibly do for a living that allows you to communicate this badly?

Here's some wisdom for you, focus less on what I do in Lagos and more on your money, education and getting custody of your children. Listen, you have children out of wedlock who you do not have custody of and cannot possibly support. It would seem you should have better things to worry about than how I spent my 3 country 17 day vacation, how much time I spent in the Radisson Blu, Kempinski or with my friends on Banana Island or Ikoyi or how many of Tony Elumelu's parties I attended or who I'm dating.

Nelson Mandela was asked by his professor what he would chose. Wisdom or money. He answered money. The white prof retorted that if it were him he would chose wisdom Mandela calmly answered, "Everyone chooses what he does not have".
Fyi, the Nelson Mandela quote is pure fiction, since you may not understand the definition of fiction, it means it did not happen. Par for the course for an idiot who spends most of his life on a forum propagating bullshit and his sole source of education is Twitter and Instagram. Aren't you embarrassed already? But, let's go deeper here since it seems we've gone full circle. Isn't this the point I was initially making. You have no real experience on the topic you are talking about (I'm sure you haven't really read anything about Nelson Mandela or studied his life) yet sit on this thread spreading Bullshit you heard somewhere on Social Media.

Aside: Given you have neither wisdom nor money, if you were in that made up scenario it'd be a tough choice wouldn't it?

Food for thought. I stayed at my boy's house on Banana for a few days while I was in Lagos. My boy went to Yale, wife Stanford. They spent 2 full days editing their daughters Yale, Harvard and MIT applications/essays. My boy in his office upstairs, wife downstairs with 2 other people. It was impressive the advantages the daughter has(legacies, top US boarding schools etc..) Yet her parents still invested this amount of time in their applications.

You string words together (usually far right talking points), randomly place punctuations marks (if even that), then call them sentences that supposedly communicate some thought. They are not. The sad thing is that you are not embarrassed that you write so poorly, because you are too stupid to understand you write so poorly.

benalvino3:
Appeal to authority fallacy. Okoro feeling funky.
Whether someone has physically been to a place has little bearing on their ability to learn about it or develop informed opinions. With today's technology and access to information, one does not need to personally visit a place to become knowledgeable.
Dismissing or discrediting someone's (basilico) perspective solely based on the argument that they haven't visited a place is an irrational appeal to authority. It wrongly assumes physical presence is required to have credibility.
There are many valid reasons someone may not have visited a place, unrelated to their interest or knowledge. Resources, circumstances, and access issues could prevent travel.
Interest and curiosity do not require physical presence. People can care about or want to learn about places they have not visited. Curiosity about other cultures and places is natural.
Discussions and exchanges of perspectives do not require first-hand experience. Dialogue is how we learn from each other. Claiming someone cannot discuss a place they haven't visited stifles open conversation.
So in summary, dismissing someone's perspective or right to discuss a place solely because they haven't visited relies on a flawed appeal to authority and flawed assumptions. Curiosity and learning do not require physical presence.
So how do you know that basilico has never been to the United States?
1.) You should probably google and learn what an appeal to authority fallacy is. It's clear from your post you don't understand it. Par for the course for you.
2.) We should file this in "writing things that illuminate your lacking world view". Only someone who doesn't understand education, knowledge or expertise would pen a post like this. Par for the course for a no-nothing Republican wannabe who thinks he is an expert in everything.
3.) Posts like this also make it abundantly clear why I have the education that I do and you write posts in which you sound like English is your 3rd language.

Update:

There are options to gets this done which I am unfortunately am personally aware of.
1.) You can get a Nigerian passport done in a day (with a cost). The problem is you have to make sure your NIN will validate. If not game over.
2.) Ghana has a Visa On Arrival policy processed when you land at the Ghana airport for the Xmas period. Problem is that this working is dependent on the Nigerian gate agent being aware of the policy and not looking to keep you off the flight for a bribe (400k).
3.) There is an ECOWAS travel passport-document you can get relatively quickly. The problem is that for whatever reason they are not readily available. Now, if you do need one and have a good contact, you can find one and have one processed and delivered to you in about 10 hours from outside your state for a cost.

Moral: Nigeria will frustrate you and if you are in a similar situation as I, get your documents sorted before arriving in Nigeria.

I flew American/British Airways. No issue checking in. Flight was cancelled so was rebooked on a United flight. No issue there as well. Both agents asked for my US passport then a Visa, told them I didn't need one. Asked for my Nigerian passport and I showed them the expired one. That was it.

Fool, when the war begin there were 300k people left in mosul this is how you made claim about first-class flights and won't admit you are wrong. Double down to show us how dumb you are.

People flee war zones during fighting you simpleton. Idiot says I do not understand per capita then went on to explain it as I suggested 🤣🤣🤣🤣 mumu its only obriagrdo you can fool. Hahaha

So 300k people and 40000k death but let's use 11k. It's still significant given the fact the city is not as densly populated and isis were not the cowards hamas are towards their own.

I don't expect stupid like you to admit it.

But since we all know it's a sad situation called war. People will die. Tell me how you will eliminate hamas without collateral damage.

You still haven't answered this. It's not about making noise. Answer the question.
Show me a first class anything and then maybe you or Femi Fake Life can comment on first class. Yeah, my car isn't mine, the trips I take are photoshopped, the amenity bags were photoshopped, oh wait I stole them from my neighbor's trash, oh wait, I flew to Nigeria to have an Igbo (yeah, you know you totally have the facts on your side when the tribalism comes out) trader make Colehann, Samsonite and Tumi flight amenity bags in 24 hours to prove something to people who would be lucky to fly coach anywhere. At a point, call it what it is, jealousy. The same thing that makes you come on here day after day to try to measure up to me while making yourself look like a fool.

And here is an article describing the population during the start of the war. My facts will always trump your Bullshit.

https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/the-secret-eye-inside-mosul

Fyi the per capita death in Mosul for 11,000 people at a population of 1.5 million, (let's use deaths per 1million) would be 6.42 deaths per million. In gaza it would be 7.2 deaths per million. That's higher without even factoring in the ~5x shorter time frame in Gaza and the fact even the US believes those values are underestimated. The point of a per capita rate is to help easily compare. Hope that lesson in statistics helps you.

This fake Harvard graduate does not know what per capita means.

Hahaha

When someone says per capita, they are talking about the ratio not the actual numbers you see. I say 11k but the numbers are in the 40k. But let's use 11k per capita. During the fighting in Mosul, there were about 300k to 600k civilians compared to 2 million in Gaza. Mosul is not as densely populated compared to gaza. This means people are more spread out.

Fool cheesy you got to embarrass himself
Lol. Wow. Benalvino tries to explain per capita but clearly doesn't know what per capita means. Holy Shit. Per Capita(Latin, per head) is exactly as it sounds. Deaths Per Capita would be Deaths/Population. But Per Capita death rate wouldn't be sufficient here. What would be sufficient is the Per Capita rate per month of fighting(or similar time reference). The death rate may tailor off as the war goes on so similar figures for both periods would probably be most insightful. ex. First 2 months of Kabul vs. 1st 2 months of Gaza fighting.

Here are relevant figures.
Population: Mosul ~ 1.4 million people; Gaza ~2 million people.
Deaths: ~Mosul 9,100-11,000; Gaza 15,000+
Time Frame: ~Mosul 9 months; Gaza ~2 months.

I would have hoped even a fool like you would have realized that the population difference is largely insignificant given the rate of death(time frame) and the similarities in the populations.
But you keep being made the fool and keep coming back for more.

And as to where the death count is coming from. Just to preempt your intellectually dishonest self.

The United Nations and other international institutions and experts, as well as Palestinian authorities in the West Bank — rivals of Hamas — say the Gaza ministry has long made a good-faith effort to account for the dead under the most difficult conditions.
“The numbers may not be perfectly accurate on a minute-to-minute basis,” said Michael Ryan, of the World Health Organization’s Health Emergencies Program. “But they largely reflect the level of death and injury.”

I posted an article from the NYtimes from someone who actually studied this. Unlike you. As I said weeks ago, you're an 11 year old talking to adults. God, you are really really dumb. How many times have I corrected you already today. It's probably a rate of 1 correction per 1 one of your posts.

Israel is even doing better than US collateral damage. Hamas outs out numbers that cannot be verified. Even their dead militants are counted as civilians.

US assault on ISIS in mosul killed about 12000 civilians.

Per capita that is significantly higher than the body count so far in Palestine.
Still opening your mouth to let the stupid out.

1.) The reported total of Palestinian deaths is on the low end. A lot of people are still under rubble. The scale of destroyed homes speaks to that. The number will increase.

2.) I see just like English, Math is not ur strong suit. 15,000+ Palestinians alone have died in 1.5 months of fighting compared to ~11,000 combined casualties of the 9 months of fighting in Mosul. Even an 11 year old would be able to figure that out. Will have to drop u to 3rd grade intelligence.
More women and children have been reported killed in Gaza in less than two months than the roughly 7,700 civilians documented as killed by U.S. forces and their international allies in the entire first year of the invasion of Iraq in 2003, according to estimates from Iraq Body Count, an independent British research group.

In the nine-month battle of Mosul, which Israeli officials have cited as a comparison, an estimated total of 9,000 to 11,000 civilians were killed by all sides in the conflict, including many thousands killed by the Islamic State, The Associated Press found.
A similar number of women and children have already been reported killed in Gaza in less than two months.

Recap: Facts are not ur friend, neither is English, nor Math. But you do love being wrong.

The US has battleships there because Hamas wants to draw Iran into this. The US is not protecting Israel but it is trying to not start WW3. Isreal can protect itself. If US don't send the rockets for their irondom, Israel might be forced to use preemptive strikes. This is something you don't understand. Nuclear war may start.

Don't tell me Obama or US provide weapons. Tell me the solutions the US provide, Obama provide or you provide
The stupid continues. Please tell me how US battleships will prevent WWIII? Israel can protect itself from a regional conflict? Is that the reason why the US had to hastily provide an emergency aid package? Or provide more missiles for it's iron dome? Or send them more weapons to use?
Stop embarrassing yourself. As I keep saying. You speak like an 11 year old. You clearly have no idea about Israel as a state.

If you want to learn about the Israeli - Palestinian conflict, just google "Israeli-Palestine conflict for dummies". It should suit your medical condition.. stupid. Given how long it's been going on you can also go and google and read one of the many plans people have put out. The fact that you are asking the question shows how little you know.

And lastly, the plan doesn't matter because Israel doesn't really want peace. They want the land. So this cycle suits them as they can claim more land in between the violence. Enough land that a Palestinian state isn't possible. Hence the settlers/outposts that terrorize Palestinians that are supported by the State. You know state sponsored terrorism. There is even a term for it, "mowing the lawn".

But, you're dumb and don't read. The reason you can't conjugate verbs - you don't read enough to see them in different forms. So most of this is outside of the Right Wing Fundamental youtube channels you enhale.

Done schooling you.
