realestniggah: The writers of SEE need to be brought to a public square and flogged severely. In fact everybody involved in the production. They successfully fleece Apple of some cold hard cash.
Do they think we the audience are fools.. What is this horseshit? They expect us to believe blind people are actually fighting themselves like this huh? The only thing it has going for it is the cinematography..storyline and plot is utterly stupid. After seeing the fourth episode I woke up from my delusion.
I'm sorry I made excuses for the dumb show. Lol. Please forgive me.
schboy3: There something ah have noticed about the American and British series. For British, most of their series, has to do with the cop, and how effective they are eg, the bay, keeping faith, the bodyguard, the capture, a confession etc, despite their different storylines, they all have something in common ‘’cop’’. And another thing is that they try to avoid the gay or lesbian part, you can hardly see it in their series. Buh for the Americans, ah think they derive joy in displaying a gay/ lesbian scene, if you noticed, even in series that doesn’t warrant such, they still find a way to involve it. Just think of any American series, and mostly ones financed by Netflix and co, with time they always find a way to involve it, even if it’s not necessary eg, power, money heist, abeg too much to mention. Formerly it was about terrorist, now it’s gay/ lesbian.
The UK that is even more gay than the US?
Go and watch Killing Eve. It is a series that destroys your point. It is a show that has cops (MI6), lesbians and gays.
My nigga, sharrap with your homophobic conspiracies
Use your head to think before you jump on a band wagon.I said before charity begins at home. There was a time where people were able to find house boys and house girls online here in Naija ,I believe it was on OlxIt probably still is.I recall a case of a woman whose child was kidnapped by a house help she found on Olx which led to a lot of outcry.
This post could easily have been written about Nigeria with a caption"Slave trade rampant in Nigeria.70%of Nigerian homes indulge in slave trade"
How is what we practise different from what the Arabs are doing. This post does not mention that these Africans were stolen from their homes in Africa forcefully and shipped to the Arab states.if this post had mentioned that,I would also be livid and incensed.That is my definition of slavery
However,if you used your two left leg to cross border most probably illegally to seek greener pastures and then found the conditions were not to your liking,I'll pity you but I wont consider that as slavery.Yes I agree the Arabs are maltreating this helps/maids but again,how is that different from what we do in Naija to our selves.
Are all these examples of the atrocities carried out by the Arabs listed in this post not happening in our immediate community here in Naija. 1.Exchanging a human being for money 2.over working of helps/maids and not giving time off 3.restricting/denying the maids freedom of movement 4.use of under age individuals for maids/helps 5.sparse feeding of maids/helps while oga's family feeds fat on 3 square meals.
Unlike you I am not sitting on some pedestal and condemning anyone while I am probably also guilty or benefited from "slavery"
Since you have your own ignorant definition of slavery, I have nothing to say. I am too tired to be dealing with such low level thinking.
You are not a Muslim and you feel you are an authority in Islamic affairs, I have read the Bible several times and slavery is also allowed and encouraged in it, its just how the world economy run at those times, commerce by war whereby winner takes all, properties, human being and even domestic animals, the Arabs are just obnoxious set of people that is why you will not see Muslims of other climes doing same because its not Islamic, Islam actually introduced treatment of women and slaves in the right manner, stop committing sin of ignorance, get a English Quran or google to find out what the Quran says
I don't know why, but I find people who likes marvel-sque series (batwoman, flash,agent of shield,dare devil) etc) to have a shallow mind and a lower IQ.This type of series doesn't happen in real life.Total nonsense
A human being with higher intelligence loves drama series or documentary series that happens in the real world (Ozark, billions,succession,breaking bad.Mindhunter,criminal minds, Chernobyl etc)
Currently watching the last season of HOUSE OF CARDS .
Well that's my opinion though .But seriously I dont take people that watch marvel-sque series serious in Life. But why would you waste your eye balls to watch overly fictitious supernatural bullcrap of a show.
I would rather watch animal planet.
I watch both marvel series and legal/political drama.
Some of the best series are actually science fiction.
It takes a high IQ to weave a fictional story because, fiction requires creating something new from your imagination.
Empiree: I know it pains you a lot that we are muslims. We do not face Mecca bcus Arabs are there. Mecca doesn't belong to Arabs but God Almighty. And if you read through the thread you would see I have slightly rebuked Arab slave traders. Now you may wanna crucify me for saying "slightly". Yes, i said this bcus as far as i am concerned it is non-issue bcuz those black people who are still going there for greener pasture despite obvious warnings in this age of INFORMATION, voluntarily decided to enslave themselves. In another word, it is a choice. As for you trying to undermine ill-treatments of house girls in nigeria by their bosses, you forgot that these Arabs are watching and studying how you treat one another. Although this is not excuse for them. The arab govts have a lot to do to curb the nonsense.
Once again, in this day and age, physical slavery is easy to overcome than mental one. The moment those africans are able to escape from their arab slavers, that's the end of that. But France which made your forefathers sign "Colonial Tax" in order to get the so called independence is a tall order. It is a systematic abstract slavery. You already watched the videos i believe. So i need not waste my precious time again.
Baba Titans have improved a bit this season. Better than last season.
And Doom Patrol is the BEST of all DC Universe shows. Closely followed by Swamp Thing. Give it a watch especially Doom Patrol and u ain't gonna regret it.
I actually watched season 2 of titans. Small improvement over the trash season was.
Empiree: thank you. they are hypocrites. We have seen videos and pictures of housemaids brutalized by their madam. Yet they are here yelling about arabs.
You are a sick Islamist. Nice try to change the subject to Nigerian house maids.
My friend, you are a not using sense at all with your post.
First of all, you never even addressed the wrong in the enslavement of your african brethren by Arabs. You are here talking about Nigerian house girls.
Excuse me, do two wrongs make a right? So because some Nigerians treat their house girls poorly, we Nigerians should not complain about Arabs who enslave Nigerians?
Furthermore, at least the Nigeria police and fellow Nigerians are tackling the maltreatment of house girls on Nigeria. It is not perfect as, there will always be wicked madam's who treat maids poorly but at least we are addressing it unlike the Arabs who are expanding their slavery with slavery apps.
Johnkuku: I hate hypocrites. So many here complaining and crying about slavery on this post yet almost all of them had a house girl or house boy doing all the chores in thier homes while growing up .
Most (notice I did not say probably) still have maids aka house boy/girl at home that they pay peanuts monthly even as they type their hypocritical comments and condemnations on arabs and thier culture here on this post.Shebi they say charity begins at home?
Women that form feminism and are "fighting for gender equality ".They can't cook for thier husbands but they have house girls/boy who cook ,clean ,wash and look after their homes and children and get rewarded with being sent to poor schools.Some of our Feminists even beat the maids for reasons such as disrespect etc yet preach equality with thier hypocritical mouths.
Abeg every region has thier culture,tradition and values .The concept of house boy /maid has been in Africa even before islam or christianity came here.People will and still do send thier children to live with relatives where these kids are essentially house boys/girls in the name of getting a better life.
Some Nigerians if given the chance will gladly go to these Arab countries to become maids and be transferred from one master to Another in the hope of getting a better life similar to the poor relative who sends his child to the city to essentially become a houseboy/slave in the home of his wealthy relative with the hope of that child getting a better life.

Empiree: physical slavery can not last long. This is why British, France, Portuguese and other colonial masters ended that version of slave trade and gave you "independence" and enslaved you again in another version, mental slavery. Mental slavery will last longer than physical one. This ia why arab slave traders did not survive and the very same reason it can not survive second round of physical slavery unless individual africans choose to be enslaved.
Proof of mental slavery is exactly what you are doing. Mental slavery last longer than centuries
Empiree: Why are africans and Nigerians complaining about Arabs slave trade here while in fact, if you visit average middle class Nigerian homes who have maids, the maids even speak the same language as them, are treated as slaves. In another word, Nigerians equally enslaved low income Nigerians. Stop worrying about Arabs. Those who involved in slavery amongst them will face their consequences alone.
Besides, physical slavery is still better than intellectual slavery bcuz someone who is physically enslaved will free himself or herself for as long as they get sound mind. But look at White people, in this case France; which still charges colonial tax from it's former colonies. France syphons over $5 billion every year from Africa as part of agreement signed in order for them to end physical slavery. On top of that, part of the agreement is that French military can invade these african countries without notice if it's interest is threatened. Yet, africans do nothing about this ongoing or continuous systematic slavery.
If you think I made this up please check out former AU ambassador to US, Arikana Chihombori on YouTube.
Face the issue, you this lying Islamist.
The issue here is Arab slavery of Africans.
I dont know why you are bringing in conspiracy theories about France here.
You are a sick fanatical muslim. Anything to defend your Arab masters.
Baddestguyp: Am I the only one here who follows Mr Robot? Epic series... season 4 too epic...the director is a legend wtf... Definitely one of my fav series of all time
I can see most nairalanders criticizing Islam do so in ignorance and based on hearsays Islam created a system in which slaves will be freed before Abraham Lincoln Go and check history books Muslims are known for buying slaves and freeing them
There exists no proof of islam being anti-slavery.
The only positive step Islam made towards slavery is to state that freeing slaves is a good thing but the freeing was not compulsory. There was no sin in having slaves.
Of course truth doesn't depend on you being a Muslim or otherwise
But
Do you know why I had to ask if you are a Muslim or not?
The reason is simply the manner of approach you just displayed where you have to refer to me as a brainwashed and dishonest person insinuating that there wasn't dispute amongst scholars about buying and selling of slaves without posting any reference from anywhere whatsover.
Post references to prove there was no dispute and we see if the Hadiths are sound or not.
At least the thread clearly gives it source and everyone can even access it
like I said, Hadiths are lifestyle stories by people that lived mostly after him mostly of which are even hearsay account and not to be believed and that is why they are classified and categorized as sound or not (Meaning to be practiced or not as the case may be)
ibnmoruf: I don't usually comment on this platform but today I felt the need to. Arabs or no Arab the issue of human trafficking is not peculiar to a region of the world. what can we say about Nigerians using cotonou girls for maids or blacks selling their own to slavery. it is very sad to label this as Islamic.
Is prophet Muhammad and Islam responsible for this too?
How about the predicament of Black Africans and Nigerians in particular in Libya in the last 2 years?
Are the traffickers of women and children for sex and slavery even only Muslims?
Majority of the deported are mostly Christians from southern NIGERIA with most of them ending up getting relief from TB JOSHUA'S SYNAGOGUE
Two of you are not serious.
When it comes to slavery, Arabs are the worst. From time in memoriam actually. Ever since the days of the Quran, the Arab muslim had always had slaves.
What two of you are doing is called "whataboutism". Instead of facing the issue of the never-ending arab muslim slavery, you are here talking about Nigerian house girls.
The difference remains that at least, in Nigeria we are actively fighting the harsh and inhumane treatment of house girls and maids.
If No, Then no problem with your view for you would only align yourself to the peripheral
If Yes, Then do you know the meaning of Hadith as the records of the lifestyle of the prophet?
And that Hadiths are even classified as Authentic and otherwise?
meaning some records are disputed and not to be recognized but rejected and the report in them shouldn't be practiced despite being in circulation?
Besides, The slavery related mentioning deals with the people captured during wars who are still not ready to accept Islam?
Remember that many wars were forth in Islam and not slavery of buying and selling of humans as was obtainable during the African colonization and the present days.
Why do you have to ask if I am a Muslim?
Does the truth depend on if I am a muslim or not?
You are a brainwashed and dishonest person if you think that Islam is against slavery. There is no dispute among scholars that the prophet bought and sold slaves.
LearnITsmash: The lady is correct but trust Nigerians to bash her and run away from the truth, he never refuted her claims, he is just rambling his little life's worth, which has nothing to do with the criticism the lady laid, Nigerians and silly sentiments
