DeepSight:That’s exactly what the American right wing is. Nigeria’s version of the worst parts northern leadership and culture. So many parallels it’s hard to ignore. |

GracieX3:Your point is, unless Dangote and co for go their billions to the average Nigerian, Nigeria can't get better? Still you miss the point. My point is, why is it getting worse than apartheid south Africa when the blacks had nothing. Now the have been given a little more what have they improved. Why are they more violent than under apartheid? Why is their government more corrupt than under apartheid? These are the questions you should provide answers to. At least, we should see a little improvement no matter how same. Anyway, Zimbabwe did what you suggested, they took wealth from the whites and became poorer. Uganda took wealth from the Indians and became poorer. Even Hitler s government took wealth from the Jews and the nazi economy almost collapsed. Mention one country where what you are suggesting has worked |

Reporting that Israel was using dogs to rape Palestinian prisoners. Sadly enough, this is what was reported to have happened to Jews during the Holocaust. Seems Israel has come full circle and morphed into the thing they say they hated. The Silence That Meets the Rape of Palestinians Male and female Palestinians describe brutal sexual abuse at the hands of Israel’s prison guards, soldiers, settlers and interrogators. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/11/opinion/israel-palestinians-sexual-violence.html

LordReed:You are the one making the claim of systemic racism and the only evidence you can bring was 30 to 45yrs ago Show us any current evidence of your claim. I live in the US and I am not aware of any. Since you know then tell us |

Im very clear I don't support child marriage. My feeling was that you should not jump to call all epublicans paedophiles for not supporting marriages of 18. My immediate thoughts on democrats banning that is to immortalize abortions. My children won't get married before they are 20 ,if they get babies before I'll raise their kids. I've always said people who are religious are less likely to commit crimes as opposed to those who are not. There are hypocrites of course I refute the statistics put out that there are more republican than democrats who are paedophiles, something you believe. cococandy: |

raumdeuter:You are the one claiming it is ended you tell me when it ended so I don't bring an example from before then. When did systemic racism end in the US? |

Trump willing to drop $10 B lawsuit for $1.7 Billion to establish a fund for those targeted by Joe Biden. https://abcnews.com/US/trump-poised-drop-irs-suit-launch-17b-weaponization/story?id=132962661 I expect the usual suspects to ignore that Joe Biden admin attempted to bankrupt every Trump ally they could not jail.

raumdeuter:Let's be clear, did systematic racism exist in the US in 2025? |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by raumdeuter: 2:00pm On May 15 |
LordReed:Let me be clear, I dont see any systemic racism in the US in 2025 or 2026, If you see it then give examples |

raumdeuter:I wrote on this thread about the matter of housing as an example. You never said a word. Yah, I know your response. Rubber stamp, yada yada yada. |

basilico:could’ve fooled me 🙄 My feeling was that you should not jump to call all republicans paedophiles for not supporting marriages of 18.if it quacks like a duck My immediate thoughts on democrats banning that is to immortalize abortions.you need to reexamine your thought processes. Maybe seek a professional to help you understand why you follow convoluted thought patterns to get to weird conclusions. I've always said people who are religious are less likely to commit crimes as opposed to those who are not. There are hypocrites of course I refute the statistics put out that there are more republican than democrats who are paedophiles, something you believe.You refuse the statistics because you don’t believe in facts that don’t align with your prejudices. That’s called being a negatively emotional nuht. Emotions are not bad since humans are emotional creatures. But when they stop you from considering real facts, then you’re operating emotionally negatively. And that what a lot of you do here. Just intentionally ignoring reality. Don’t worry, despite all the available data that points out conservatives are more predisposed to abuse kids, we will ignore those and write you a new set of alternative facts to suit your feelings. How does that sound? |

Palestinians are just Arabs from the neighbouring nations.They became Palestinians in 1964.
Before 1948 Jews were also Palestinian. |

benalvino3:I won’t say I don’t like Kemi. Neither do I attack her. The only issue I have with her is her strong misalignment on the issues of racism, her proposal on extending the qualifying period for permanent settlement for legal immigrants as a black Nigerian woman (proposal that weakens the ladder for hardworking immigrants to attaint permanent residency which she herself benefited from), and her full support for the continuous and senseless killing of innocent Palestinians by Isreal. And also her constant Kowtowing to Trump (who is an associate of Epstein). |

DeepSight:Concur like you do Which year is the housing matter? Just concur |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by DeepSight(m): 2:12pm On May 15 |
raumdeuter:In my write up, I showed precisely how the past affects today and gave practical examples of policies. But its alright. I understand that you were so hurt you have decided to stick to that as your permanent response to everything. I wish you speedy recovery. |

raumdeuter:Exposure to Racism and Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes for Black Women: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10903-024-01641-2 Published in 2024 updated in 2025 Excerpt: A total of 32 studies were included in the review. Significant pooled effects of exposure to systemic racism were observed for preterm birth 0.30 (95% CI 0.12–0.48), small for gestational age 0.31 (95% CI 0.05–0.58), and low birth weight 0.24 (95% CI 0.11–0.37). Among studies that compared results by race, exposure to systemic racism had a significant and rather large effect on preterm birth for Black women (ds = 0.62; 95% CI 0.06–0.41). Exposure to systemic racism has a significant effect on preterm birth, small for gestational age, and low birth weight for Black women. |

LordReed:Yes, in your minds. And anytime they kill any discrimination against other race in favour of one, you people cry. |

basilico:Including the insurrectionists of Jan 6th.?? For which some have already re-committed crimes. May God help what the US has become under Trump and what it would be after his vile body has left the scene. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by raumdeuter: 2:34pm On May 15 |
LordReed:what exactly is this systemic racism here. Can you point it out. Instead of posting a link and highlighting where it mentions the word racism, Read it and state what exact practice is systemically racist What can a white person do in US today that a black person cannot do |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by raumdeuter: 2:35pm On May 15 |
DeepSight:What are the exact policies in existence today that is an example of systemic racism This will be too much for you to think through, find a quote and just concur |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by DeepSight(m): 3:02pm On May 15 |

DeepSight:You could show him an email that says "we are engaged in systematic racism" and he will find someway to say it isn't. He doesn't come at this in good faith or with any intellectual honesty. We are living in a time where systematic racism is out in the open. From Hegeseth firing predominately black people To DOGE cutting programs because of black keywords To ICE stopping black and brown people because they happen to be at Home Depot (with the Supreme Court imprimatur). To States breaking up minority/black districts. If one can't see it in plain sight, they don't want to see it. And that's not the far-reaching stuff like disparities of who gets arrested, trial outcomes or prison sentences, sentencing, etc. or even disparities on laws based on type of drugs you're caught with. |

bayelsaowei:She rejecting race-based grievance politics and identity essential ism you people like and does not believe being black obligates a particular political outlook is not misalignment. She and budaatum holds the view that Britain is among the least racist countries, she agrees with me, raumdeuter, Basilico and pretty much any one on the right by emphasizing individual agency over your collective victimhood narratives. bayelsaowei:Nobody here supports the senseless killing of innocent people, whether Palestinian, Israeli, Iranian, or anyone else. But the problem is that people like you often define senseless killing only when Israel or the US acts. When Hamas kills civilians, when Iran funds proxies, when rockets are fired at Israel, suddenly people start adding context and excuses. I support Israel’s right to defend itself against Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran this will not change. You and I knows the bad guys. The real issue is not whether ordinary Palestinians deserve dignity and safety. They do even if they are one of the worst people on this earth who have a party anytime people die in great numbers in the west. The issue is that Palestinian leadership and political culture have repeatedly been shaped by rejectionism, terrorism, martyrdom ideology, and refusal to accept Israel’s existence. So yes, Israel has the right to secure itself, control threats on its borders, and demand that any future Palestinian authority be demilitarized and reformed. But pretending Israel is just randomly killing innocent people for fun is a lie, an ugly lie. Palestinian state cannot exist in its current ideological form as a militarized rejectionist project. If there is ever to be a Palestinian state, it must be demilitarized, deradicalized, and built around coexistence rather than the destruction of Israel. If you disagree to this you will be here crying in the next 10 years when Gazans go into Israel and try to kill every Jews they can find again because they built one or two tunnels |
