London in 2050 after @RestoreBritain_ refused to stand in the election. @_AdvanceUK did not merge with Restore and “patriots” voted for the greens because of their personal vendetta against Nigel Farage.
budaatum: I am both male and female as far as you here on Nairaland is concerned. If you don't like it, please go hug a transformer. Your opinion of buda is irrelevant and insignificant to buda.
Golly, ono. I don't even consider your opinion of USA or anything whatsoever to be significant or relevant, so what makes you think I'd give a flying f what you think of buda?
There's a deceptive spirit in you buda. I already told you what to do. It's over to you o!
budaatum: Can you not consider that not telling you my gender on Nairaland does not make me both male and female at the same time of the day?
Or do you think I cut off my mammary glands and attach my male copulatory organ and vice versa at the same time of the day because I care what you might think of me?
You told us - Deep included, that you're both male and female. What's all these twisting things you're about again?
DeepSight: + I agree. I find it embarrassing myself.
1. Immigration 2. "Stronger Together" - A multicultural outlook of unity as opposed to the obvious white Christian Nationalism of Trumpism 3. Abortion' 4. Women's Rights 5. DEI 6. CRT 7. Non discrimination against the LGBTQ Community (This is different from the crazy wacko stance of the extreme left on these issues as I have mentioned above re: issues such as children engaging in sex change, use of bathrooms, participation in particular sports for women, use of gender pronouns, etc.) - I am also opposed to gay marriage or a gay couple adopting children.
It is not by accident that the left has produced the only "black" president, female vice president, two female candidates for president while the right has never even attempted this.
So, Deep, the thing is what you've listed here as what you want is something you cannot get in reality - as it is today. It's kind of akin to you wanting to eat your cake and have it, or you sitting on the fence and eating with normal people on one side and then crazies at the other side.
1 Corinthians 10:21 (KJV) Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.
Joshua 24:15 (KJV) And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD , choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD .
Now, aren't those verses easy to comprehend? What will Rosicrucian and Eckancar bring to the table that we cannot already glean from these simple words of the scriptures. Trust and Obey.
DeepSight: + I find it absurd and I think it borders on one having a kind of personality disorder. I also find it a crude abuse of the English Language.
bemeruca: Macron just showed the world that Iran could have blocked the Strait without being attack and he would have done nothing. That is enabling the enemies.
🚨 JUST IN: French President Emmanuel Macron goes full COWARD MODE, says he wishes President Trump didn't bomb Iran's world-threatening regime
"I disagree with them...but I don't believe we fix it by bombing!"
budaatum: You need help with your obsession with my sides.
You can't deny that someone who's both male and female at the same time of the day deserves some attention. The person could be crazy, mental health or something. Not all crazies are remanded in mental institutions you know. Some are considered useful to society - many examples abound.
IjeBos: Pam Bondi fired. She wasn't sufficiently nutty.
I would have preferred that fiery house of rep guy as AG, what's that his name again? The one that the liberals basically shut up with some "sins".
Pam tried. It's a complex world in there. She's too clean and "gentle" for the Federal Government environment. That place is full of sharks - within and without. Good luck to her in all her future endeavor.
Ben, Raum and Bas, I listened to Trump’s Iran war update this morning on Fox, the recorded one. I know he likes to “be himself” and go through some written scripts with little attention, but last address to the nation was not, using his own words, “not very nice”.
Whoever his handlers/advisers are, they need to work on him to make speeches to the nation better than last night’s delivery, especially on sensitive matters. This is not the press. He’s addressing the people on issues that matters most to them.
The comments from Fox watchers wasn’t good either. People were somewhat disappointed with the delivery of that speech. The administration can do better.
budaatum: It is true for low grade positions. You can not be drilling oil in my community and fill all posts with outsiders. We community insiders will resent not reaping from our land and blow up your oil company. And that's why you do what is right and allocate some jobs to my community.
You wouldn't however just drag an unqualified person from my community and give them a job in your oil company that they are not qualified for. Smart you would go as far as India to hire technicians who know how to do what you want done if you can't find competent people in my community or in the entire Nigeria, and you'd sadly hire my community people to clean toilets and fill my ïgnorantly proposed DEI quota.
You are not stupǐd enough, I hope, to hire an unqualified DEI person from my community as a technician in your oil company in my community. And I'd like to hope you'd not think I am stupǐd enough to insist you employ an unqualified person from my community for a job they are not qualified for. If we are both that stupǐd, we shouldn't be surprised your oil company makes no money and eventually goes bankrupt. And when that happens, you definitely wouldn't be hiring unqualified or qualified DEIs from my community nor qualified people from anywhere.
And that's precisely why smart intelligent community leader me will insist you DEI by investing in the schools in my community so that people in my community can qualify to go for further education that I will insist you give scholarships for so that you can hire them as technicians after they have qualified. And smart you will agree because you see advantage (my people not blowing up your oil company for instance) in investing in my community. You'd be able to advertise your product as socially responsibly sourced if you do. And my community people will not blow up your oil company because that would be like stupidly blowing up the food on our own community dinning table. Smart me will join smart you to dissuade those whom such stupǐd thoughts cross their mind.
Now, this is the sort of post that seun's spam likes to bot, so I can only hope you get to see and read it.
The way you answer some questions, I just wonder. Have you worked in an oil company to be writing with this level of “authority” ?
IjeBos: Why are you asking other men to speak on your sexuality? That sounds very nonstr8. The more you write, the more you're making your case harder. Just prove it. If you aren't gay, it should be easy.
Yeah. I get you. Don’t worry. This is the last you’d read from me on the subject. Well done and keep cool.
IjeBos: This couldn't have been more wrong. The only coherency of his opinions is that they usually align with what is good for Trump. Even if it means going against the wording of the constitution like he did in the Tariffs case.
Doesn't it? How many straight men are Vs till they are almost 30? And you keep saying you aren't gay but still haven't proven it.
I was raised in Deeper Life Bible Church as a youth. I was in the Children church as a young boy. Let that sink in for a few minutes then come back with your question again.
IjeBos: Fair minded you say? What you think would be wrong. Thomas has been one of Trump's most ardent supporters on the Supreme Court. He is on hack levels at this point.
You really do know little about the US
Btw, why haven't you proven you aren't gay yet?
Bros, I said he as a Supreme Court justice has voted against some of Trump’s cases. Yes I get that people look at him as conservative. But I think that at the court, the guy acts to not pervert the course of justice.
Na wa o. Your gay things no make sense anymore bros. Thanks be to God you’re not like buda. She said she’s both male and female - in real life. I wash my hands off. Enuf said.
GracieX3: Lol.....if you knew how much money foreigners make in Nigeria.
Are you aware that cars, technology and data are more expensive in Nigeria?
A car I would buy for 8,000 pounds in UK (16 million Naira) will cost me 25 million Naira. It would even be cheaper to buy a right handed car in uk and convert it than to buy the same car in Nigeria
ben, for once, I agree with madam Gracie. This is true. I'll advise you invest in Naija now o, before the gravytrain leave you behind.
Adams, I just asked after you in the other politics thread. So, this is where you are ? What are you doing supporting the Ayatoilets? What da hell. You're too smart for this type of stuff.
These guys wants no good for anyone! While their Arab neighbours were busy building architectural masterpieces all over the place, making living conditions for their people better and developing tourism, these Ayatoilet guys were busy killing their own and building missile bunkers. Why would you support evil people like this Adams? I can't believe what I'm reading in here. What da hell is going on??
GracieX3: Just like how Clarence Thomas is "a rare breed of black".
coon
What about him? He's been a very fair minded guy all along. I think he voted against Trump in a couple of decisions by the Supreme Court lately. What's the problem? He's just like anyone. I like to not look at people based on their colour and stuff - but I also appreciate this is far from reality in many places.
IjeBos: Did you see what happened in the last election in Nigeria? Ask people how difficult it was to get voter cards. I read stories and heard tales of people of certain tribes having very difficult times getting voter ids. You have first hand experience with it and still act like you don't.
Voting in the US is done at a precinct level by people who live in that precinct. So, when I walk in I meet someone who I see when I go running, who asks my address and then checks me in. In that voting place, there is an armed local cop outside and a couple armed local cops inside. The organization it would take for someone to vote multiple times is unrealistic. And you would be insane to risk voting illegal if you aren't a legal citizen yet.
Now, I am for security so I have no issue with voter id, in fact would prefer it. The problem is, can it be done in a manner that doesn't disenfranchise people. The Dems had a voting rights bill that allowed for voter ID. But they also had protections in place so people could get those IDs easily and at no cost. A cost to vote is a poll tax which is illegal in the US because of its racist history or being used to disenfranchise black voters. Voting is a right guaranteed by the constitution and should be treated as such.
Also, strangely enough this new Republican bill would disenfranchise Republican voters more than Democratic voters. Democrats are more likely to have a Passport(travel) and be able to get to a location to get an ID. So Dems are actually fighting for Republican voters here as usual but being criticized by the same people they are fighting for.
And lastly, the difference between DeepSight and you is that he speaks in a probing way. It sounds like he studies what he is talking about, has info to back it up and still stays in his lane on matters he may not have enough experience in. His goal seems to lean and grow his knowledge base. You talk like your word is the end all and be all of a topic especially when it's clear you really don't have facts to back it up or a firm understanding of that topic. It's the same thing Basilico and Bemeruca do in this thread. Like this post. You are arguing about how voter id worked in Nigeria without talking about one of the biggest issues, how big of a mess and how hard it was to get the voter card. And what seems like a deliberate, purposeful strategy to prevent some people from voting to game the election.
...read through all you wrote. Balanced views, learnt some new stuff. You keep at it like this, perhaps, we can be friends, so long as you're not gay.
Also, what if Trump's plan also include making sure that all eligible voters have this ID? What if he's got a good plan to start this. We are in the jet age for Christ's sake. Let them just take that first step. You all sound like "it can't be done" and it's got to be perfect the first time. I don't think this is what's on Trump's mind. He just wants some order around how things are done. Your hatred of and for him is blinding you all from seeing what's good coming out of this.
GracieX3: Lol...for someone so skeptical about islam
I'd say the Emiratis are a rare breed of Muslims. Tolerant, poise, educated, reasonable, cultured, not aggressive. Can't say same for the Ayatoilets - their nearby neighbor.
IjeBos: Did you see what happened in the last election in Nigeria? Ask people how difficult it was to get voter cards. I read stories and heard tales of people of certain tribes having very difficult times getting voter ids. You have first hand experience with it and still act like you don't.
The truth is that I was not in Nigeria at the time. I was in Abu Dhabi - my second home. I have lived in there the last 14 years.
DeepSight: + You cannot deny that a person who resides in the USA is most likely to have a deeper understanding of the way things work and happen there. Of course this does not mean that they are always right.
You're a chess player. Don't worry, your ties or is it inclination to liberals and their ideals is not in doubt. They know you're one with them in spirit and letter.
