Fact

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTcViL8Udo0
I watched about 5 min of that video. I just busted into laughter when that dude said he preferred the plantation (slavery) to the Democrats plantation. Of course far right and white nationalist would applause that sort of video lol

He also failed to discuss why the black family where breaking apart. He rather said it was something in the like of abortion, lack of moral character e.t.c. he completely disregarded racism. One thing I have noticed is that if you don't give people a level playing ground or opportunity to excel, it could also break family apart which the guy failed to realise.

John Lewis, MLK and many late civil right activists would be rolling in their graves because of the stuffs coming out from the mouth of that guy. He wouldn't have a platform to discuss the stuff coming out of his mouth if he was still in the slave plantation that he prefers to the Democrat's plantation.

The Nigerians we talk about currently exceling in the US also have the democrat's plantation/civil right movements to thank for that.

My 2 cents

I see you are trying to educate Benalvino2. But see how he insists its not the same kind of bias despite he himself claiming:



I will of course be watching to see how far you are able to raise his awareness to eradicate his bias which I believe is possible.

See here my response to another move onist.
I like your faith in humanity lol.

Rashford is rich, he should have moved on and keep taking in the racial slurs. Only if he was as myopic as some people.

Don't worry bro, I will prove it soon. It seems that nigger is cleaning his footprints. Yesterday he came on here with salford1 because I accused him to staying low-key
So you have nothing on him, yet you call him a fraudster.

Kids will always be kids.

This is why I said this Nairaland is full of Shit.

One word: Derailed by kids again.

Some people really have no lives outside Nairaland.
If they want to be useful with their lives, Nigeria needs troops and people with detective skills to help fight Boko Haram and bandits in the North. They can sign up instead of wasting away on Nairaland

Lol

When a nigger say $100k is peanut but complains about cost of living that nigger gast to be fake.
Low-key meaning he uses salford1 only on those threads because he does not want people over those threads to trace him here and see all the shit he says about Nigerians

PrideofLincoln1 and budaatum has been exposed. Budaatum is a photographer in London who take pictures at any small party Nigerians organize. He is an old man with nothing to show. Not even a spouse.

PrideofLincoln1 is the oldest in this thread. You can see his photo on my profile. His daughter is 45yo at least and he is a grand dad.
This is hilarious at best.
Even a cat would know that Tdotbluejays is Salford even though we are assuming. It took benalvino less than 5 min to figure that out. Lol

Tdot in my understanding also means Toronto - common knowledge.

100k may be peanut to some for real, not joking. It's all about exposure. A Nigerian engineer, IT specialist or doctor abroad won't see that as big money if they are earning well. My aunt is a specialist doctor in the US earning around 450k a year, yet she complains about how hard the US is and rising taxes and cost of living. Infact she tells family members in Nigeria not to come and suffer in the US, yet she has refused to return to Nigeria herself. So rich people complaining about money is not new. Even in Nigeria.

As per Budaatum taking photos, that is hilarious too. Lol. It could be an hobby. Even if he is a photographer which I highly doubt, there is dignity in labour. There are photographers making more tham bankers. Spouse, he might not like exposing the face of his family members on social media. Even if he has no spouse. Does that even mean anything? Owner of Amazon has no spouse. Bill gate is also about to become spousless lol

PrideofLincoln2 is oldest on the thread? So you have a passport or birth certificate of everyone on this thread to prove that? Even if he is old, what has being old got to do with posting here? Do you know the age of people posting on Reddit or quora? Those are one of the best forums on the internet. I would rather prefer old people post here than kids.

I think we should move on from here. This talk about exposure of people is very childish, and I am sure not many people on here are interested in it.

He is low-key because he is making new monikers where he can be free to make fun on Nigerians, calling them roaches. The nigger don't want those people he converse with in those threads come across the bullshit he spreads here.

The nigger also brag about being so rich but often complain of high cost of living and prices of food commodities going up.
I also do not agree with the way he calls people cockroaches just as you throw the word nigga everywhere on the thread. I don't know of any other forum where that word is thrown around but nairaland being such an embarrassment to Nigeria allows it.

And how do you just proof that he is making many monikas? Apart from the tdotbluejays he is using. Maybe Salford got banned. I once called you troll as well because you have many Monikas too. Like I said, he is still posting with the tdot so he is far from being low key.

Also, everyone complains of cost of living whether rich or not. Even billionaires complains of cost of running businesses too so what is your point exactly?

Also, you haven't mentioned the bigly expose on PrideofLincoln2 and Budaatum.

I am tired jare. Let me move on to continue reading contribution to the thread.

This niggaz are shit that I can be 100% sure of.
Salford1 has ran away remain low-key. He saw the exposure of budaatum, PrideofLincoln2. He is next.
Lol. I don't know what you are on about, but Salford is well known in the travel section though and outside Nairaland. He has helped alot of Nigerians to Canada from what I have heard. A friend said he even belongs to a Nigerian Engineering immigrants WhatsApp group where he continues to contributes to helping new immigrants.

I believe he has an Instagram account too. The guy is not lowkey or ran away as you have claimed. If he is indeed the same as tdotbluejays, he still posted here a few hours ago. I am sure you know people have lives to live outside Nairaland.

What exposure on PrideofLincoln2 and Budaatum do you also talk about?

---What's the latest on Arizona audit----

Tech company running Arizona ballot recount backs out: 'They were done'

The Pennsylvania-based IT company that was in charge of running the hand recount of Maricopa County ballots is no longer involved in the audit.

The contract with Wake Technology Services, Inc. ended May 14, the original completion date for the hand count, and the company chose not to renew its contract, according to Randy Pullen, an audit spokesperson and former state GOP chair.

"They were done," he said. "They didn't want to come back."

Wake TSI was the subcontractor that developed and oversaw the procedures for recounting the county's nearly 2.1 million ballots, working under Cyber Ninjas, the state Senate's main contractor performing the overall audit of the county's general election results.

The audit was on break from May 14 until Monday, as high school graduations took place in the coliseum.

The state Senate hired Cyber Ninjas, a Florida-based company run by a Trump supporter, to conduct the recount. Cyber Ninjas contracted Wake TSI to count votes.

The recount is still underway, but Wake TSI's contract ended on May 14, the same day that the hand recount was expected to conclude, and the company has chose to let the contract expire, the Arizona Republic reported.

"They were done," Randy Pullen, an audit spokesperson, told the outlet. "They didn't want to come back."

Insider has contacted Wake TSI for comment.

Pullen told the Arizona Republic that StratTech Solutions, an Arizona IT company, had taken over Wake TSI's work on Monday.

As of May 21, only about 500,000 of the 2.1 million ballots had been recounted https://eu.azcentral.com/story/news/politics/elections/2021/05/25/cyber-ninjas-subcontractor-strattech-solutions-takes-over-arizona-election-audit-hand-count/7429980002/
Fear of a lawsuits since they know the audit is all a charade. How can a company not want to make more money? lol

He did say the law enforcement was a political witch-hunt. I did not know that American government hunt witches like they do in Nigeria. Lol.

Unprecedented: No former President of the United States has ever been subjected to criminal charges, up until now. Trump keeps breaking records.

I agree with you 100% and when I bring the Nigerians doing better and budaatum saying it's because they were not told about slavery in the past that's why employers will employ Nigerians over African Americans what do you think?

Just so you know. I have lived in western countries and I have also seen racism directed at me. The notion some are trying to paint that I think racism don't exist is just them trying to make an argument for me so I look like a ridiculous person. I have stated that numerous times in this discussion. The one wirinet said in his post or reply that you said you agree with 100% does not reflect my stance.
Thanks for the clarification.

you have a pathological inability to understand anything that doesn't conform to your rigid one dimensional way of thinking! Prideoflincoln1 is successful, academically and professionally as is buhdda I presume, does that make them discount racism? In what dystopian world of yours does personal success of a black man equate immunity from racism? undecided because they succeeded despite racism therefore racism gave them a wide berth abi? LeBron James still suffers racism, I'm sure if he were honest even Ben Carson will grudgingly admit he encounters racism! Black cops get shot and harassed by white cops of duty, black pregnant women who have had at least one childbirth experience prefer being attended to by black ob/gyn rather than whites as they tend to dismiss their pains wrongly believing black women have a higher threshold for pain than women of other races leading to a higher maternal/infant mortality rate in black women and babies than average! There is racism in places that you won't expect benalvino2! Don't use your very limited understanding of the topic as a yardstick to measure the general experience because you effing jon snow here!

I was just reading about this last week:

"A Black Indianapolis homeowner’s property value almost doubled after she asked a white friend to stand in for appraisal, according to reports.

Carlette Duffy removed her photos and all evidence of her race and asked her white friend to pretend to be her brother during the third appraisal of her property.
And the value shocked her — it was almost double the initial amount.

According to the nonprofit Fair Housing Center of Central Indiana (FHCCI), Ms Duffy’s home was assessed in 2020 by two different companies. One valued it at $125,000 and another at $110,000. When the white man posed as Ms Duffy’s brother, the property was valued at — to her surprise — $259,000.

After two low appraisals of her property last year, she had a nagging suspicion that race had something to do with it. The third time around, she tried to keep any interactions with the appraiser strictly to email. NBC News reported that she had not declared her race or gender in the appraisal application process.

Ms Nelson told the media on Monday: “In order for the value of her home to be accurate, she had to remove herself completely from the home. She was at first ecstatic that she did in fact get the value that she thought her home deserved.... But then almost immediately after, she was heartbroken with the fact of what she had to do in order to get that value.”
"

wirinet:
He was not really referring to physical debt, but psychological and emotional debt. Most of the things that would trigger off an average African American would not affect an average Black African coming from Africa. You call me nigger, so what? As long as you pay me the Benjamins, you can call me anything you like. Being called nigger does not evoke the same emotional response as a black American. An average Black American has been conditioned to think he has limitations due to historical racial conditioning. A newly arrived African has no such baggage.

It's a similar situation is South Africa. The indigenous blacks just having come out of apartheid still carry lots of the psychological baggage from the apartheid era and so presents its own series of limitations and problems, eg crime, sex, drugs,etc. These psychological limitations are absent in other black Africans and so tend to excel better.

So you are saying prideoflincoln2 and over 90% of African that say they have experienced racism are delusional and that you are more informed than them?
100 percent accurate.

This post is not addressed to anyone as I am not really clear about what Budaatum or benalvino are discussing about. I haven't been following. However, it is good to point out the facts below, so we don't swallow up nonsense from racists sites and blogs.

It is easy to mix up diversity/inclusion with the quota type of system in Nigeria created and reserved for the northerners.

Diversity in education or employment doesn't mean employers or academic institutions would place colour of skin over qualifications.

For academic entries, you have to be academically sound among your fellow minorities. For jobs, you have to be a top grad among your fellow minorities.

I am sure anyone that lives in the US or Canada or any advanced country can testify to this.

No minority (be it Nigerian or Indian or Haitian or black American) would solely get into a top school or secure a top high paying job solely because of their skin colour? Being black or brown alone would not get a minority to Havard, Urbana or Yale medical, Or Caltech Engineering or any other STEM program in a top school.

For jobs, diversity alone won't help a 2.2 grad from a minority background into a top company. A first class degree would give him or her a chance on diversity entry programs.

Diversity programs in developed countries means e.g. a company that only employs maybe 5 minorities a year now employs 20 minorities a year, out of a total 200 new hires. In previous years, they would hire a white grad with 2.1 degree over a minority like Nigerian with a 1.1 degree. This diversity programs are to reflect the community in which they service.

It means a university like Havard has now reserved atleast 20 spaces for minority medical students out of an entry class of say 200. No white boy with Bs getting in again over say an Indian with As from high school. This is to better reflect the society on which they operate in.

You can bet that those that would compete to get those diversity slots either in academic entry or employment would be high flyers. The best of the bests. I mean great dinstinction students or grads.

Alot of white supremacists and far right blogs post junks about minorities getting jobs based on their skin color and some other nonsense as if the minorities are dullards. This is no different from how a racist high school dropout in the UK or US would claim a MBBS grad (specialist doctor) from Africa is taking their jobs in the NHS in England or Health region in the USA.

I felt like throwing up reading some of this junks these guys are spouting. The guys that lives in Britain tried to correct them but these Umudike self hating bunch gets worse. It's true that not all skin folks are kin folks. Never seen such hatred against African Americans like this in my life.
Ironically, the same black Americans they love to slam are one of the few reasons blacks (the world over) still have some little respect in the eyes of other races. The black American culture is also being copied from the jungles of Africa to the mountains of Siberia. Check the Nigerian music industry and Nollywood. It is heavily influenced by Black American hiphop culture. Lol

Those African Americans you coons love to denigrate are the highest performing and richest sets of Black people in the World.

50 years on, they have refused to move on despite the fact that most were not even around when all the events happened.

Anti-semitism is not for the jews alone. Arabs are semites as well. Jews remember the holocaust but they don't blame it or cry about Germany every day. They have Moved on.

It is in the history, something we learn but jews don't act like Hitler is still sending them to concentration camps today.

It is easy to move on. Nobody alive today experienced slavery in the US. And if they don't move on they will continue with the divide and hatred.

Let me ask you. Why anger for slavery ends at the white man? What about the ancestors who captured to black men and women, make them slaves before selling them to white men?
Okay, if you say the Jews have moved on.


What about the Biafrans? It is only fair that they shut the hell up and move on. Do you agree?

It's not just the white men that anger are directed towards. Carribeans too have bottled up anger towards Africans because they know Africans collaborated with the white men enslavers.

The Jews still scream anti-Semitism till date due to the effect of the holocaust. Alot of those screaming anti-Semitism where not around during the 2nd world war.

The Igbos have not forgotten the family members e.t.c they lost to the Biafran war despite Gowon saying no victor no vanquished (telling them to move on). The most active biafrans today are youths that weren't around during the Biafran war.

e.t.c.

It's not just easy to move on. May God heal all those still going through the effect of one discrimination or the other.

Good. We know the narrative. And the guy who I was discussing with makes that assertion.
I already told you I experience racism in the UK but it is not enough to affect me. I experience worse things here by people who think because I am in Nigeria I cannot get on a plane or have not seen a plane or I am poor.

When I was living in the UK most of my cash I make go to the government and landlords.just to get a room in London can set you back £500 and its a shared kitchen and bathroom. I don't live in a council apartment which are subsidized. London a great city but cost of living is too high. I prefer Newport, dundee and other small cities but job now is a problem in those small cities.
In my understanding, if you are not a citizen or ILR permit holder, you might not qualify for subsidized or socialized housing.

I am glad you acknowledged that racism exists, but there are also levels to it. You may experience in the face racism which may be harmful or harmless. Others have experienced worse racism that set them back in their career. Some racism experience have even led to death. So, one should not project our examples as same in which others experienced. We all read about the murder of Stephen Lawrence. I hope you understand me sha.
