XhosaNostra:They fear is reasonable because you out numbered them by as much as 5:1. It really had nothing to do with your toi toi abilities and occasional bombings. Their fire power was far superior and you know it. |
XhosaNostra:Don't understand this point. Doesn't fighting the longest imply you were much slower in getting to the eventuality than having anything to do with resilience. XhosaNostra:If people are oppressed in the manner you and African American counterparts were subjected to, that would point to the eventuality of giving up your life as opposed to continuing to take the atrocities that were meted out to your peeps. I feel anyone put under that sort of stress would eventually commit to death rather than the alternative. False comparison XhosaNostra:Colonizers did not spend that much time fighting you all. The Zulu are pretty much about the only tribe to have fought the hardest. The rest of ya'll settled by treaty and vassals. Now if you are referring to Apatheid and settler dominance well there is nothing comparable throughout the rest of sub Saharan Africa Another False comparison. |
Lionessza6:You should fear the traffickers as much as you fear Rapists, Wife beaters, drunkards, drug dealers and robbers! That is only sensible but please it must cut across the board. |
Lionessza6:Semantics. 1.There are Nigerian immigrants and expats in general. 2. There are a grouping of immigrants who are usually of a certain socio-economic class who are more proned to engaging in illicit activity usually concentrated in certain areas in SOuth Africa. 3. Why in God's name would you expose yourself to this category of people by living amongst them in the first place. PS if you interchange the group from "Nigeria" to "Congolese" or "Zimbabwean" belonging to a low socio economic class of immigrants in your country, you will find the same illicit behavior. FACT! |
Wettoid123:Throughout AKA's career he has been a stunch supporter of "West-South" collaborations and mutual understanding. You are misconstruing what he said. |
Lionessza6:"fear" is an awful emotion. It warps the senses and blinds reason or rational thinking. Do better! |
Chauke:Correction: They are not "our" marauding Fulani herdsmen since in all likely hood they are Foreigners. |
srclark:Where did you get your statistics from. The news? srclark:Don't you think that by just looking at population numbers and the loudness of Nigerians your analysis is flawed. |
Even more mean spirited Nigerians at work. See how they treat foreigners https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbWZ_3tUlv8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XYABvXYI2w |
Jaqenhghar:That is correlation not causation. The queues have nothing to do with your Xenophobia. |
More crazy Nigerians you cannot stand : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36T8YUyF_6s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ff-jcm_VKOw |
Lionessza6:Be clear in your analysis so as to confine this theory to South Africa in particular. There are large communities of Nigerians all over the world and your analysis is obviously a confirmation bias but is flawed logic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thbRgjHgo4k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdVHim6W-To https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXvOZdC3fB4 |
Wettoid123:AKA said that because he considers Nigeria actually closer in ties than a North African country, not because he is xenophobic. Don't misquote the guy. |
Wettoid123:What is the number you are using as unquantifiable and where did you get that number from? Wettoid123:Your government has failed to protect you inside of Nigeria and you expect them to do the same outside. ha! |
Jaqenhghar:What has queueing up at embassy have to do with people being Xenophobic. Correlation does not imply Causation! |
Lionessza6:Don't understand what you mean by a labeling. The hate, fear or dislike of foreigners is the definition of XENO_Foreign....PHOBIA_fear there of. Therefore you are xenophobic. Shikena! |
Lionessza6:Mind your Language sisi. Na our house you dey! |
Typhoonsbane:No mind them. They just like drama but then again, the country boring and work no dey! |
YourBoss1:Latin America in general did practice what was known as the "whitening" of the race where it was desirable to marry up the Color spectrum to assure that children had a better chance of coming out more European and passing as white to attain privilege in society. They had several categories based on a color spectrum and depending on who married who i.e Mulatto, Mestizo, Quadroon, Octaroon and Moreno. It is not so much the reality today although it still exists. Argentina's small black population were systematically killed off via war and deportations while encouraging immigration from European countries especially from Italy. |
YourBoss1:Absolutely nonsensical to think that for 2 reasons 1. Africans are the most genetically diverse people on the face of the planet so would have a greater reservoir of genetic difference that would foster greater phenotypical and genotypical expressions. 2. The gene most responsible for skin pigmentation in Europeans is SLC24A5 and the earlier variant of it HERC2 and OCA2 are found in light skinned people who are African which include The SAn, and even the Igbo's of Nigerian.

compton11:At least you have the decency to concede. |
compton11:Phenotype- how a person looks does not mean that they do not have native American blood(genotype). Any genetic study on South Americans in general usually points to about 15% native American ancestry. |
compton11:There are only two possibilities for lighter skin in African/black people. 1. The admixture with a non African carrying gene for light skin 2. A native gene that is a predecessor of the gene that developed in non Africans for light skin. It is correct to say that Neymar groups most likely with option 1 above, therefore he is most likely a result of an admixture of African and non African genes as opposed to someone who exhibits light skin but who is 100% African/black as in the example of the person below.
|
compton11:That is your best guess based on your visual observation. However the probability that three groups of people lived side by side and intermarried and intermingled, with two of them being of lower socio-economic class and the more likely advent of admixtures, puts any Brazilian from this social group at a higher confidence level to have some sort of mixed ancestry from the two lower socio-economic groups being native American and African/black. |
seuncyrus:Argentina has a greater number of people who have maintained their European descent more so than other South American countries, however you will find White people in pretty much every other South and Central American country as well especially the elite class. This is not coincidence. Compare a pic of senators in Brazil with the Brazilian national team for instance.
|
urahara:If you look again at the photo of the parents it is likely that your assertion that they are "pure" black is wrong. |
compton11:How can you make such a statement without his DNA results. The probability of him having native blood is actually quite high even though he may not present the phenotype that correlates with it. |
seuncyrus:there are South Americans who are white so your statement is a little wrong. |
compton11:Well technically speaking he isn't black as in an original version of it now is he?
|
YourBoss1:Here is a pic of Ryan giggs who will pass as white although his father is half black(Sierra leonian) and half white
|
Badonasty:White, black and native indian |
stanliwise:Carry on. I no dey vex! |

All the way from West Africa? The reality is, they feared us without your so called help.
