ednited: Are you supporting xenophobia? Really? Are you supporting the attack? Does it make you feel good treating black people like that? How is yours better? Attack is attack
Jonraid: Mention the Indian and the whites! This one is quite ironical coming from a South African trying to say that Indians and whites control Kenya's economy!
Facts are facts and they will always prevail over sentiments.Why do you think Nigerians here call you guys "little Indians"?
Jonraid: This was our dirty past which we own.But we've made great strides since the 2007 election violence.I reckon more cohesion is needed.But another race running the show in your own backyard is pretty embarrassing. You've got your own share of black versus black through xenophobia.
It's not a past as you claim,it's still a huge problem in Kenya.I don't see any issue if that race is South African.Can it be as embarrassing as Kenya having to pay the white man to leave Kenya.Who in their right minds reward colonialists? and I see you think we don't know that Indians and whites still pretty much run the show there.At least xenophobia is against aliens,not South Africans wiping each other out of existence with machetes
Jonraid: But isn't that the messy truth? Racism is still rife there! It's much better now than before but it's still there! Was in on twitter that I saw a picture of black kids who were sidelined by their white counterparts in classroom? Let's face it!
But Kenya holds the fort when it comes to tribalism,the worst kind of hatred when you consider the fact that it's a black on black hate which sometimes leads to brutal attacks
ednited: You see, this is what I am tired of. You are using the racism card on all Ethiopians. You just said that she played with a handsome white kid beacuse she don't consider herself black. At first, you don't know her and secondly because you met 6 Ethiopians who are racist. . . You can't say 100 million of us are.
As South African, you have your own tradition and you have been raised with it. You will be mistaken doing the same thing you do in your country doing it some where else. In Ethiopia, we even kiss the kids we don't know and keep them safe. They needn't be our kids. Old people kisses other people kids and bless them. This is because our society don't have any bad to think. She was wrong that she was trying to apply same thing in South African community.
I never said that Blacks are forced to live in slums. I just asked why both aren't living the same way. If you guys have no issue, I am very happy for you. I won't open this issue again.
But please stop thinking all of us as 1. For example, the lady I was talking to just mentioned that we annoy her. Especially the Ethiopian ladies. Just before she try answering my question, she is going to want to attack because she thinks I am racist too. I am glad of what I look but it doesn't stop me from admiring natural African beauty beacuse me looking like an Ethiopian also makes me look African. Because Ethiopian is African.
Your guys kept telling me to stay out of buisness and mind mine. I have seen south Africans saying that we better feed our people before we build such an airline. I don't remember acting like the previous lady to them.
Africa has issues more than the population it has. All of us are starving but we keep pointing fingers. We aren't ready to hear the ugly truth and change. Then how would Africa grow??
But as an answer to you. . .yes, I will unite with my people to bring our refugees.
My statement sounds normal for people who think normal. It sounds racist for people who are racist and sounds annoying for people who thinks they are being attacked. Probably you are the third person.
Runalong somebody and kazikazi, better stop playing your stupid game. Runalong is responsible for all this and not kazikazi but kazikazi is trying to make a team.
We have one team here and it is Africa. I did have a little bad discussion with few Kenyans here including RVP, but it was solved easily because there was no one running for team. We discuss everything in here and that was interesting. I can only talk about me beacuse am an individual. I don't have any problem with South Africa. When I said South Africa needs help. . .I only said that because I beleive every black south African has to live a life they deserved. Let's face the truth, majority white south Africans live way better (luxurious) than black. If I am incorrect, I am happy for you. It is you who knows about your country more than a foreigner like me.
PEACE
Not goodbye just yet,let me spoonfeed you knowledge because you are too ignorant to research the things you talk about.
When you finally unite to bring your refugees home,please start with the ones in South Africa so we don't have to hear you and your people complaining about how South Africans live their lives IN SOUTH AFRICA
Yes!! your statement sounds normal to your kind who think colour of one's skin is a ticket to luxurious life and all the free gibs in the world.Some of us weren't brought up with that mentality.oh and I don't care what you think I am.
Runalong has nothing to do with this,if you must know,I have been following this thread from the very beginning and I try to read anything that is informative here and I try to correct those who talk about things they don't (especially when it concerns SA) so I was coming for your ignorant bullsh@t even without Runalong callin my name.
I belong to no team and I'm not fighting anyone either.And I asked you what exactly is it that someone should just "deserve" because they were born black.And no,majority of white people in SA live a middle-class life along with majority of blacks,however there's no denying the existence of the poor population but the truth is a poor South African is still better off than what we see in Africa.
ednited: My friend once visited S.A. She saw a handsome white kid then she tried to play with him. She thought South Africa was like ET. But the parents of the kid took him from her and looked at her as evil just because she was black. The black and white community in South Africa lives separately. It is easily identified.
Who gave the whites the chance to act like this in a place where they don't belong? If they had acted like this here, I swear Ethiopians will whip their asses and throw them to their country and no one would stop them
Ednited,your friend,just like many Ethiopians is suffering from what we call Identify Crisis,she thought she was not black enough to play with other black kids and chose to play with a "handsome white kid" LOL it was a rude awakening on her side that the "handsome white kid" LOL put her in the same category with the average black African so her dreams of feeling completely white just for one day were crushed .Just tell her that next time she visits SA she should give Jaceblaze a call so we can hang out and tell her to leave "the handsome white kid" alone,it's obvious that the kid doesn't wanna play with her because he thinks she is inferior,and to be honest with you,she deserved it.I DON'T PITTY FOOLS.
On a serious note:Whites and Blacks don't live separately in SA,everybody who can afford to live in the suburbs can live there without anyone abusing them,unless you speaking about pre 1994 South Africa,hell even back then there were many blacks who lived along whites and even went to expensive schools with them.And I hear you complaining about black not getting what they deserve? and what is that exactly? In the morden day South Africa where each and every citizen is afforded equal opportunities to learn through free basic education and where financial aid schemes have been put in place for university students who were not born with a silver spoon,there can be no excuse for not succeeding.This is life,no one in 2019 is going to use the colour of their skin as a qualification to get freebees,it doesn't work like that my Ethiopian friend.That mentality is holding Africans backward.
ednited: [s]South Africa is a confusing African country. It is an African country suited for white people rather than black. South Africa is still in danger. All of us better unite and help South Africa. Black South Africans need help.[/s]
Why don't you unite as Ethiopians and fetch all the Ethiopian refugees that are scattered in all corners of the world?
Runalong333: Lol, jaceblaze, lionessza6, irongalaxy , xhosanostra please come and help this good sister out. Her friend had an encounter with a white racist and all of South Africa became a mess . I'm just a refugee according to the likes of tylann so I shouldn't get involved .
I'm going to attend her just now,I never miss an opportunity to perform an exorcism on Africans and cast out the demon called Ignorance
MasterKrest: The whites came in to agriculture,now you have a good agriculture, like ranching,and modern techniques,not what is happening in Nigeria, whites came into breweries,now you have some of the best wines in Africa, whites came into mining,now you have an industrialised nation, whites came into fashion,they came into music,they came into politics, you even have indigenious car companies by whites,now you have a flourishing country setting the arena and pace for Nigeria to hustle and work hard, we won't give up, don't forget,blacks are resilient
Jonraid: It is like them saying,'We have many online shoppers than you'
I always get like,''Shouldn't that be the case,I mean you are like 200m...right?''
There are few sane Nigerians in here.When we factor in 'per-capita' in an economic indicator because we only have like 48 million Kenyans,hell breaks loose! 48-50m people against 180-200m people isn't going to be fair for the most of the time!
I don taya pass die .common sense has never been their forté
edon21: forget the damn quality. in most TV stations in South Africa, Nigerian songs rule the airwaves. during award ceremonies Nigeria takes the day what the hell are you talking about
What TV stations are those? have you become that desperate? Given your uncontrollable population,it's a no brainer why Nigeria will collect most awards or did you expect a country of 52 million people to beat the one with 200 million people in votes?
Why does it seen like all of you are using your rectum to reason and not brains?
[quote author=IronGalaxy post=75473129]Typical whitewashed Nigerian you think when our beautifully shaped beauties go to our sacred rituals unclad is something to be ashamed of? You really think you're insulting me?You think by wearing those Indian curtains make you "civilized"?Lol.
The question should be. Don't you have someone's skull to mine today?
Jonraid: Nigeria is that type of girl who says that she'll love you by force even though you don't like her let alone love her!
They will impose to you that you like their movies and songs!
LOL spot on! Nigeria is that girl who buys a new Brazilian Weave and when she realises that no one actually cares she starts to flick the weave continuously until she gets compliments ...so pathetic.
PROVERBZ: niniola came and beat all of you in your house music �� and friend nobody cares about house music OK
who still buys songs at music stores anymore ??south Africans stream Nigerian songs die YouTube their comments are littered everywhere even still am sure the goal of Nigerian artists is not to hit a jack pot in sa . UK africa and the Caribbean has been conquered a little beat more pushing they can achieve the goal of conquering the USA
look davidos fall and another afro beats song by an ivorian in Nigerian pidgin where the most shazamed songs in new york Joanna is the name of the song how I wish we could take credit for it the guy lives with Nigerians and knows how to speak Nigerian pidgin
I remember when vodacom sa used one mad hit by skales then 'shake body'for an advert they even edited it an added Zulu language hahaha
Maradona was not even the biggest House song that year,so who did she beat? she is basically one-hit-wonder status at the moment.The same House music that dominated The Black Panther movie soundtrack is the one you claim no one cares about? your afrobeat was nowhere in sight which just shows that people are growing tired of it.
FYI,people still buy music physically if you didn't know.Check Eminem's latest sales,both digital streams and actually copies.So what's your point? Nigerians are also viewing SA music on YouTube but you never see us bragging about that.
Vodacom selected that song because it basically suited the theme of the Vodacom's "Shake Everyday" promo,not because it's Nigerian or anything like that.You guys use a particular famous Jacob Zuma meme all the time on NL,should I now beat my chest about that? see why I think you have toddler brains?
Ibrahimanis: You are wrong though, Nigeria accommodate many variety of music, afrobeat is not even the most popular genre in Nigeria (pic) afrobeat is to Nigeria what dance hall is to Jamaica, a genre identifiable with Nigeria, Just because they dominate does not mean there are no other genres, what it really boils down to is thirst and cycles, because most people expect afrobeat from Nigeria, they get stuck from one afrobeat to another.
BTW except for a single song here and there most popular Nigerian musicians are into afropop, wizkid, davido, tecno, yemi alade, tiwa e.t.c are all into afropop not afrobeat. Compare "Gbona" (afrobeat) with other popular music from wizkid and Davido, you'll get what I am talking about.
Whatever the difference is there between afropop and afrobeat...I just can't tell it.
abbeg: First I'm not a fan of Nigerian music.I know it's rubbish.But house music is far from the best in the world.And I didn't say all of S.A. music isn't in English.I said MOST.Which is true.I was saying Nigeria dominates African music which is also true.No one cares about quality these days.That's all.House music MIGHT and a big MIGHT have better quality I can't tell since I don't speak xhosa or Zulu or whatever language that is I don't know but afropop sells more than house music.Simple.And I don't think afropop sells in S.A. I KNOW it sells in S.A. Laugh all you want I still have Google.But S.A. music in Nigeria?Na,doesn't work.And I think we have won Grammys before.I'll check. South Africans,the wool over your eyes is getting thicker and thicker! Still thinking you run music! No,no you don't!
Show us a country that has a better House music than Msanzi.You guys must learn to separate popularity from quality,those two things have nothing to do with each other.Lol stop using language as an excuse,Daddy Yankee's Despacito song (lyrics written in Spanish) was one of the biggest songs of 2018 even amongst non Spanish speaking people.Your afrobeat don't sell in SA,I frequent music stores (btw I'm not talking about some black market in some shady location) and I must tell you that music stores down here don't even have your CDs on the shelves cause no one buys it,so in what form does your music sell in SA?
PROVERBZ: y'all also claimed Nigerians where begging nasty c to come to Nigeria
after he failed to get the crowd going in Lagos lol man was like I see so many young people here why are you not singing along (no sir its not because we are old we simply don't know who the Bleep u are ) before south African music penetrates Nigerian audience it most be a feature and most times the hook is usually by the Nigerian artist that's what people are interested in not those fake raps y'all be doing faking american accent even tho u speak British English ooo the accent lol eg rands and niaras ,fela in Versace , soweto baby particular even this songs were not that big in Nigeria compared to how big they where in sa
I don't know about the begging part but I have realised Nigerians and other Africans on YouTube highly rate Nasty C more than South Africans do,and you can check the comments on YouTube if you doubt what I just said.
In a country like Nigeria where the industry doesn't accommodate variety it comes as no surprise that the crowd will not be moved by Nasty C's performance.The two industries are too different,PERIOD...in Nigeria is Afrobeat or die as opposed to South Africa that covers all bases and cater to different audience within the same country.Ever wondered why international Rock bands like Linkin' Park,Nickelback,Coldplay,etc never perform in Nigeria but can sell out arenas in South Africa? well that's because we speak the same musical language as them,a language too foreign in Nigeria because the only genre that reigns supreme is the monotonous Afrobeat.So you saying even if a South African song was good you wouldn't listen to it if a Nigerian artist is not featured? what kind of a toddler mentality is that? if a song sucks then it sucks no matter who is featured.The sooner you minimise nationalism when it comes to musical taste the sooner you'd start appreciating good music.
XhosaNostra: I commend her organization skills. She has all her ducks in a row- a new home, a business & now she's making her own funeral arrangements, unlike other so-called celebrities who die penniless & the nation has to make donations to give them a respectable send off. This is how it should be done. They must not keep showing us pictures of themselves spending money recklessly on frivolous things, only to have a pauper's burial in the end.
Justnotyou: Genetics play an important role in our intelligence if you're a genius chances are you're gifted, hard work definitely plays a role but nothing beats talent.
jakandeola: make sure u dont kill a naija guy and steal is car as u kill lucky dube
Whoever gave birth to you should have swallowed back to the womb shortly after birth.You are an idiot,möron,stupid,fool,nutcase,fruitloop,lunatic,dumb,....please go play with your kind and stay off my mentions.
XhosaNostra: Yes, I grew up in the 90s, so I also consider myself a 90s baby because I don't know what the 80s were like. I was a baby in the 80s
Ooh nice! You had a comfy upbringing. I'm not a coconut lol. How dare you! I grew up ekasi until my early teens, then we moved to the suburbs. We were middle-class.
XhosaNostra: R5000 a month on fuel is a lot of money lol. I wonder how much fuel a Kadjar needs. I'm planning to buy one soon, but now you're getting me worried. I can't be forking out thousands of rands a month on fuel, sorry. A bus is way cheaper.
But that's exactly what some people are coughing a month lol,think of an AMG with four exhaust pipes.I don't know about the fuel consumption on the Kadjar but I know you will at least be paying around R3,500 or so p/m,sounds reasonable to me.
I always loved Volvo.My first car is probably going to be the v40
XhosaNostra: Imagine saying a Renault should be dumped at a junkyard! It's a good start up car & some cost as much as a quarter of a million. That looks like a Renault Clio. Let me check the price tag on that one.
Edited
R221, 900 (almost 6M Naira). That's not bad for one's 1st car.
Yeah it's a Clio.Not to mention it is one of the most fuel efficient vehicle around so you won't be spending more than R5000/month on fuel
