Allow all Nigerians the freedom to do anything they want in the West without any regard for their hosts.

But never in the North or East. When you are in the North or East, accept your status or leave.

If your Western hosts tell you to respect their culture or their political leadership, they are hypocrites, not accommodating and intolerant.

PoliticsRe: Deadly Violence Has Shattered Our Sanity & Peace Of Mind by nobaga(op): 3:31pm On Oct 11, 2021
The children of the privileged that gained their high status are not going to let go just from the goodness of their hearts. They still scout the world looking for cheap labor and talents that will further their interests at home and abroad. It is not by accident that your own leaders in developing countries are even worse, furthering foreign interests, perpetrating violence, laundering your earnings and resources abroad like the businesses and missionaries that did it before independence.

There must be another way except for the fear that without hunger people would be too lazy to work. So love is not the solution to the market. If you do not work, you cannot eat love, you have to buy food. Otherwise hunt or grow your own food in your own countries. Animals kill for food but humans fight and kill humans for money that controls the privilege we want and buy.

Therefore, parties are formed along the interests of workers and business owners. The greatest accomplishment of the workers is the establishment of Unions that eliminated child workers, negotiated working hours and benefits. Union brought decent living wages that expanded the middle class and brought their wages closer to that of employers.

These gains are being eroded today by the children of slave owners from their workers. But these days they do it with the help of their victims voting against their own interests. They broke the Unions and exported jobs to countries that provided cheapest labor. In the first place, our Youths cross over the sea and desert as laborers because big international corporations preceded by their missionaries were in our countries to exploit you on plantations for raw materials.
PoliticsRe: Deadly Violence Has Shattered Our Sanity & Peace Of Mind by nobaga(op): 3:23pm On Oct 11, 2021
Politicians used violence in the name of law and order to keep you enslaved. The shareholders make it unbearable as the laborers of raw materials. So, you take to the sea and desert to escape. But your escape does not give you the desired freedom because you are also the cheapest labor in your new country. Comparing dollars to local currencies only gives you a comparative observation of how exploited old countries are. More in conversion of money but more stress when a fish is out of water. Suffering and Smiling!

However, as wages grew in developing countries, employers found political means of getting their ways, by any means necessary. Even through denial of unfavorable votes to deny your contributions or express yourselves in a democracy. They get their ways and bully you into compliance by violence to burn the house down with fear of losing everything.

Unfortunately, violence has pervaded our peace no matter where you live. We were building and planning for the future until angry men all over the world rose up asking for a bigger share of the same pie. They either get more as demanded or burn down their communities, the same societies that fed them. Money is the measurable means they see today, so they must get more. This is the root of all their violence, money!

We see money as power that buys privilege and subject others to their whims and caprices. People have realized this for ages building philosophy on retaining the advantages money brings. Children of those who fought to retain serfs in Europe and slaves around the world, feared the loss of income they derive from mercantile trade, would dilute their power.

Nobody gives up a position of privilege easily. The only way to do their job is to introduce violence. There are very few ways to create violence without getting people to become mean spirited. Anger erases love for one another and turns people against themselves. The way to increase anger is to poison the love that unites people against violence.

Even in communities where most people have the same ancestry or ethnicity, leaders created parties by class to fight one another as we see in Europe and America. If they belong to the same ethic group, speak the same language and worship the same God, as the Somali fight each other. The same is true about the Shiites and the Sunnis or Catholics and Protestants used until lately in Ireland. It boils down to dominance and suzerainty either by economic, religion or violence.
PoliticsRe: Deadly Violence Has Shattered Our Sanity & Peace Of Mind by nobaga(op): 3:22pm On Oct 11, 2021
Extremists appeal to our basic emotional instincts propagating fear of one another for their own selfish ends. They throw more money to Cronies, Defence contractors and businesses than they spend on human infrastructure. How do all these rancors intentionally created solve the violence against one another, especially against women and the poor in any society?

Even places and countries we used to call civilized climes have come out in their true colors proving that cave mentality for the survival of the fittest by violence is worldwide. Philosophy of the capacity to acquire and unleash the most lethal form of violence as the only way to discourage violence gained ground. While Nuclear Powers prevented others from acquiring nuclear technology, they shared it with affiliates and friends like South Africa before Mandela took over, Israel, South Korea and probably Taiwan to counter neighboring threats.

The old tactics of divide and rule through political parties still works. Violence is their way of keeping their status quo. Your leaders and businesses do not work for you, their loyalty and interest is to make money out of your communities for foreign shareholders. The owners of foreign companies in your countries preach job creation with cheap local low wages or threaten to fold up.

Deadly Violence Has Shattered Our Sanity & Peace Of Mind

Listen to article
International organizations for Peace, Trade and Sports after World War I and II and later Organization For African Unity urged by Kwame Nkrumah at Addis Ababa, created avenues for amicable relationships around the world where we can resolve our differences before resorting to wars. However, extremIst forces looking for domination worked against Peace in order to gain Advantageous Economic powers within and outside their countries.

Violence in order to gain power and control the destiny of others has spread to areas reserved for serenity. Violence in children’s schools, house of worship, hospitals, family, work e.t.c. It is getting almost impossible to find a place to hide or run to. It is an understatement to claim that Things Have Fallen Apart. The bottom of our Peace, Amicability and Civility most of the older cohorts grew up in have fallen. Some Youths born into chaos became indifferent, for survival.

Yoruba say you cannot shave a man's head in his absence. Again, how do you renegotiate with the Taliban without the Afghan President, his Army or representatives? President Biden was somehow supposed to reverse a deal with the Taliban in Afghanistan, a deal that had rendered its sitting President persona non grata. A deal based on not attacking American soldiers but silent on Afghans aiding them.

.....it was the same Tony Blaire that rightly helped invade Afghanistan but then invaded Iraq under false pretense. Yet, he called President Biden implementation of his predecessor’s Peace deal with the Taliban already set in motion, imbecilic.

PoliticsEasier For Dictators To Gain Power Than To Vote Them Out by nobaga(op): 8:59pm On Aug 29, 2021
EASIER FOR DICTATORS TO GAIN POWER THAN TO VOTE THEM OUT

What has the world learned from the Taliban 2020 Agreement to gain Power in Afghanistan and the 1932 German Election that crowned Hitler? Both demonstrated the use of the most popular minority party, not majority, to gain control of the country by fragmented coalition. We are seeing more of it not only in European countries but in the United States where Independent voters decide their Presidents. They are a good part of the silent majority.

The biggest minority party elected Hitler and he was appointed as the Chancellor since his party was " successful also in the sense that they drew their support from everywhere. From Catholics and Protestants, from town and country, from rich and poor. Men and women as well. Young and old." https://www.dw.com/en/fact-or-fiction-adolf-hitler-won-an-election-in-1932/a-18680673

The return of the Taliban may not be surprising if we examine the affinity and relationship between democratic dictators and coup d'etat that replace any form of government. The power of the incumbent in autocracy, theocracy or plutocracy makes it easier to keep the office, even in the face of protests. No country can accommodate all Africans or send an Army to fight in all countries forever. We must stand up and fight back our oppressors at home.

World independent voters or silent majority watch the citizens mad rush to get out of Afghanistan, Central and South Americans to cross the US border. They wonder like Africans, where and who are going to accommodate all these folks with their cultural and conservative religious beliefs. Sharia laws of Sunni or Shiites remind us of the disagreement between the Catholics and Protestants that later spilled into Seven Days Adventist, Episcopal and Pentecostal etc. But none of these terrified women as much as Sharia in Africa.

Africans know how desperate migrants leaving their countries are. Brutal leaders driving their people out are not only corrupt, they are ruthless killers by starvation, use of drug dealers, Shower Posse, supporters of APC, Tonton Macoute. They also encourage brain drain by foreign recruiters of talents in poor countries. Africans wish they could make as much money as their politicians. Nigerian politicians are the highest paid in the world, which they launder out.

Many dictators come to power by strong-will shared by an entrenched kitchen cabinet to convince a minority, the privileged, that the silent majority can be rescued from decadence facilitated by their opponents' governance. They usually adhere to emotional, volatile religious or political ideologies promising greatness. Well, Russia and China have nothing religious about them but they exploited socialism as the equal distribution of income and resources. Once in power, they become capitalists for a clique. Clique-capitalists by and for themselves.

No matter how good a government is, if they cannot get their messages out and convince the people of the benefit or success of their rule, a worse form of government could paint itself pretty selling autocracy. Some Africans only need the support of their ethic base. During the Obama years, a tax cut was given to the middle class that was reflected in weekly paychecks. But workers did not realize it because it could have been better felt if packaged into monthly checks with letters to all, in case some recipients were missed. Unknown benefit is no benefit.

The fascination between democratic elected leaders and leaders that seize power is the ease of enforcing their will without the check and balance of the House or the Court of law. It becomes more dangerous when other countries look up to these successful dictators as a model for their own democracies in developing countries. When a democratic President goes around the world for photo opportunities with dictators in the name of negotiating Peace while thumbing his nose at allies and rebuffing leaders of democracy.

General H. R. McMaster, was the former Cabinet National Security Adviser, surprisingly called the Taliban Peace Agreement in 2020 a surrender! Five thousand terrorist prisoners released by Taliban agreement. There was also a Peace Deal in the Middle East without the Palestine Representatives. Another Photo Opportunity with Kim Chung Un without South Korea. As far as some supporters of these moves are concerned, these are great achievements by the will of one man demanding praises from his cabinet.

The United States is one of the greatest democracies, yet the people elected a dictator that may return by force or be elected into power again by voters' suppression or intimidation. If anyone thinks it can never happen, they were the same ones caught unaware when a man that lost the majority votes became the President and had planned a comeback by coup d'etat if he lost. Politics has become a game for public relation officers and social media to twist facts into alternate facts and disinformation.

The Agreement with Taliban to get American soldiers out after two decades appealed to both liberal and conservatives. As it unraveled under a new President, we saw most of those that were left behind in Afghanistan were the aides and relatives that stood by Westerners. The slowing of SIV visas in 2020 were not different from the type of people left behind after World War in Europe, those banned from entering the United States from Asia.

Similar to those from the Caribbean and African countries that fought during the Wars for Allied Forces but could neither get their legal papers nor pensions in Britain until recently.
No matter when these injustices were corrected, millions of African and West Indian families had been denied a life. They could not enjoy the benefits of the War they survived.

Africans that were promised Freedom or Independence from European rules had to wait until Freedom Fighters like Herbert Macauley, Kwame Nkrumah, Jomo Kenyatta, Joshua Nkomo, Albert Lutoli and Boukman in Haiti risked their lives in their home countries. While West Africans gained Independence by negotiations, many Afro Americans, South and East Africans died fighting.

Gallant men and women resisted slavery at home and in Diaspora making it too dangerous even on the high seas. Denial of votes by Christians or Muslims through their courts, Sharia or Churches matters more to Africans at home and Diaspora than which religious body they belong to. The reason we are there is because they came here to uproot slaves for their successful economic takeoff while denying Africans the fruits of our labor.

Afghanistan is another lesson that at the end of the day, only locals can free themselves from representatives called leaders that must be forced to recognize the role of men and women standing equally shoulders to shoulders that move a country forward. Seriously, do we expect other countries to fight for women’s rights, children’s rights and equal pay while we do little to help ourselves?

Is it easier for money and talent launderers, treasure hunters and missionaries to go through a needle’s eye than for their exploited refugees in Africa to get into Europe, America and Asia? If you do not want any more refugees, stop exploiting their gold, diamond, uranium and cheap labor. Establish factories in these countries producing finished products to world tastes and specifications and pay fair market prices the same way you do in rich member countries.

How can any country in good conscience, by religious beliefs or in the name of goodwill send African refugees back into the desert and sea to die while at the same time poaching talents and welcoming their leaders with millions or billions looted from the same exploited countries? Rich countries know these leaders are robbing their poor countries, yet they encourage them by spreading the red carpet for their entry

If all Americans do is spend Naira in America like Nigerians want dollars in Nigeria, American dollar will be cheaper than Zimbabwe dollars.

There are more American 100 dollars outside America than inside America back by nothing. Remember, there is nothing like gold standard again.

Spend Naira in Nigeria to demand Nigerian made goods and services. Naira will appreciate. But as long as you use Naira to chase American goods and services, you will always look for more and more Naira to buy dollars.

Dollar is branding, without weight. If Americans sell beach sands, people will buy made in America sand.
