Colonization consists of 3 parts:

1. Genocide of natives around the world aka mass murder.
2. Erasure of the history of the natives and telling of a false history of the natives....Africans are suffering the effects of this today that's why they told you you were in huts till they came...
3. Bringing of white settlers and su subsequently claiming the land as theirs.... rename it New England, New London, New Manchester, New Birmingham etc that's why New York in America today is called New York...natives hv been wiped out.... Africa was to suffer this same fate...

So you can see there's nothing great about a colonial heritage....to the contrary, it's something to be deeply ashamed about and it proves Anglo Saxons are the real savages....
you are right, they are real savage,

Inflation is almost global. But our hatred for the current administration based on some of their activities has sent most Nigerians on a bias spree.

But injustice and lawlessness experienced in nigeria is also global? grin[

Russian effect.

How mighty Countries like Germany, UK and France all of a sudden turned United state puppet and foot-stool is still what i dont get.

These big countries dont even have their voices anymore, they cant make decisions for themselves anymore.


The US carried out a terrorist attack by blowing up the Russian Nord stream pipeline transporting gas to Germany. Germany kept quiet like a Dundee, a whole former world power turned into a puppet.
Now france who is also battling its own economical issue is the one helping germany with gas.

Things now falling apart and the center not holding anymore. Winter is coming Europe.
This is just the beginning. The sanctioners are feeling the heat more than the sanctioned.
Lol

I foresee more protest of this type, but with a different magnitude across europe in the coming few weeks.

Russia is nobody's mate
I can hear what you saying my guy, them go feel am for their body wotowoto the way we Nigerian or African as whole are feeling

Lol. In criminal investigations, usually, the first thing that is asked is who stands to benefit?
In this case, the US, Norway and maybe Poland stand to benefit.
The US, because they are selling LNG(which is expensive compared to Russian gas)
Norway, there is a gas pipeline coming from Norway that is competing with Russian gas(Russian gas is cheaper)
Poland, along with the US, Ukraine and Poland were vehemently opposed to Nord Stream 2 pipeline because the pipeline would not pass through their countries and therefore Ukraine and Poland would not get transit fees. Nord stream 1 pipeline goes through Ukraine and Ukraine is paid transit fees.

Now also in criminal investigations, usually, the second thing that is asked is who is capable of committing the crime.
Norway, Ukraine, Poland.
Who do you think has the tech and expertise(capability) to blow up an underwater gas pipeline? I leave you to answer for yourself.


Valid points though. I was just judging based on reports from CNN (which could also be biased(

Police violently crack down on cost-of-living protesters

Demonstrations for better wages in France elicited a harsh response from law enforcement
Re: Thousands Take To The Streets Of Paris To Protest Soaring Prices by TrittNG: 12:09am On Oct 19, 2022
Massive protests against the high cost of living met with a heavily-armed police crackdown in Paris on Tuesday. Tens of thousands of striking union members and their supporters filled the city streets to denounce President Emmanuel Macron’s economic policies and demand better wages in the face of massive inflation.

A video posted to social media shows a crowd of heavily armored riot police charging a cluster of demonstrators sheltering behind a makeshift barricade. While the protesters scatter almost immediately, the cops carry off a few of them, while protesters toss projectiles at them.

Protests against Macron’s government and its policies have been ongoing since last month, when employees at TotalEnergies and Esso-ExxonMobil demanded a salary bump of over 10% to compensate for high inflation. The resulting strike took a third of France’s gas stations out of service, causing long lines to fill up at the remaining locations. Tuesday’s demonstrations included an official action by the General Confederation of Labor, with transit workers, as well as auto plant and power plant workers, taking to the streets alongside the refinery and gas station workers and their supporters.
