GracieX3:Why is Nigeria not as developed as Belarus? |

DeepSight:Old age was why they shoved Biden to the back of the row? |

raumdeuter:I don't know when that video happened. But it doesn't matter. It's a random thing I am sure. |

benalvino3:Oh. Here we go again. Where do I start with this one. Okay. Why Belarus. Why not Latvia. Or Luxembourg. Or Georgia. But that's beside the point. Does one have to go through a "History of the World" course with each of you? Nor worry. I will cc you on my missives to TV01 and basilico soon. |

benalvino3:Have you been to China before? |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by benalvino3: 5:14pm On May 15 |
DeepSight:Because whichever you pick, Nigeria is less developed. If you have to go then go, if you don't have to go through history then don't go. But you are never with answers and your victim cards will not work. No black nation is developed, history is not the issue. Stop this your self-hating nonsense because it holds our race back. If you ask me the same question, my answer will be short and simple: people like you who do nothing but cry about and blame others. |

bayelsaowei:I haven't, I doubt you have. Why should what you say or your opinion matter more? |

DeepSight:Xi was front and center, Biden was shoved to the back row like an inconsequential leader

benalvino3:Thats an ignorant answer. I will lecture you. I will try. The answer is more complex. Don't worry I will give you an Idiot's guide. |

raumdeuter:Its just a one off and nothing significant. |

budaatum:I'm confused as to what you are saying. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by benalvino3: 5:24pm On May 15 |
DeepSight:You cannot lecture me once you bring history. We've had our independence since the 1960s and back then we used to have clean running water without installing boreholes. Maybe not widely scaled across the board, but a functional country could have improved on that but instead the opposite is true. We are stuck on building one road over and over again. They build it from scratch almost everytime instead of minor maintenance here and there. Africans don't have the culture of maintenance. In our tribal language, there is no word for maintenance. Go ahead and blame the white man. |

This thread is beyond ridiculous. It like a book club where people who read the book are arguing details of the book with people who didn't even open it but think they know what it's about based on the cover. And these people (Bemeruca and Benalvino) will post 1 million times repeating the same debunked things instead of spending time reading the book. And then once in a while one of them(Bemeruca) will talk about another book (the UK), to make you think he reads. And they must stay in the book club, even though they don't read, because they want people to think they are people who read. |

benalvino3:Its even beyond the bold. Listen: How long after Roman colonization do you think it took Britain (and Germania which wasnt colonized as completely or in the same way) to come anywhere close to the splendor and efficiency of Rome? That's right, over a thousand years. Now before you jump to say I am saying it will take us a thousand years, no. I am not saying that. I am just dropping a nugget for thought. I will address this in detail. |

DeepSight:In international politics, it is significant |

benalvino3:You doubt I have? Please travel to China.. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by DeepSight(m): 5:31pm On May 15 |
raumdeuter:Not one random instance where they were just taking a picture. Yes, I know the usual protocol, but this was really a one off. To prove your case you will have to show that Biden was routinely back benched in his travels or at events generally. |

IjeBos:Gladys cries 😂 Wtf is book club 😂 Why are you trying so hard? The image is me trying to help with your mood or PMS

bayelsaowei:Travel to China does not answer anything. Someone who traveled to Abuja does not mean akure does not exists. What did travel to China mean? Because you traveled to China it means their problems went away? What is your argument other than travel to China? |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by benalvino3: 5:48pm On May 15 |
DeepSight:You are shifting the argument. This is your useless pattern almost always. Nobody says Africa should have become Rome or Britain in 60 years. The point is simple: after independence, many African countries already had basic functioning systems: roads, railways, public schools, hospitals, water boards, civil service structures, etc. A serious country should improve those systems over time, not let them collapse. So comparing Africa to post-Roman Britain is not the same thing. Britain after Rome was dealing with a collapse of empire, invasions, fragmentation, and a completely different historical period. Modern African states inherited 20th-century institutions, access to global technology, international trade, development aid, universities, engineers, and examples from other countries. First bank was created by our colonialisers. I showed budaatum a civilization in 2026 that have not figured out the canoe. No colonialization on them, no development. They haven't even gotten to the stone age. The issue is not that colonialism had no effect. Of course it did. Positive and negative effect. The issue is that after 60+ years, blaming colonialism for every failure becomes an excuse for bad leadership, corruption, poor planning, tribal politics, lack of accountability, and zero maintenance culture. Again, f we had clean running water in some places decades ago and now people need boreholes, that is regression. If roads are rebuilt from scratch every few years because nobody maintains them, that is not Rome’s fault. That is governance failure. History explains some starting conditions. It does not excuse permanent incompetence. |

raumdeuter:Bro do you even know what systemic racism even is? |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by bayelsaowei(m): 5:53pm On May 15 |
benalvino3:You need to travel go there oo and see wonders.. So that you can adjust the rubbish things in your head about China, its advancement and economy. You open your big mouth and say the Chinese economy is in turmoil .. And mocked them by saying Temu. Travel and see…. |

LordReed:Give us examples of what whites can do in America that Blacks cannot Besides your chorus of victimhood |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by benalvino3: 6:03pm On May 15 |
bayelsaowei:This argument is like Tucker Carlson going to Russia and spreading propaganda. Where is your argument exactly? Travel to China is not an argument. I can accept China has beautiful cities, high-speed rail, advanced factories and impressive infrastructure without accepting the propaganda that China will overtake America in every respect. Tourism shows you the showcase. Economics shows you the structure. China has wonders, but it also has property collapse, weak consumption, youth unemployment, demographics, debt and political rigidity. So what exactly does travel prove? That Shanghai has skyscrapers? I never denied that. |

benalvino3:Alright, this is not a bad write up to be fair, but let me seize on just one thing. Institutions cannot be inherited. They need to be built. I'll be back. Britain after Rome was dealing with a collapse of empire, invasions, fragmentation, and a completely different historical period.There we go. Always quick to see the point for whites. But you can say this and imagine that Africa had/ has no similar extenuating circumstances? |

raumdeuter:Bro define systemic racism. |

benalvino3:Your comments betrayed you have deep seated ignorance about China or deep seated bias or both. Imagine mentioning Temu to judge China. And what turmoil? Trump worship is at the bottom of this. Give it ten years. China will surely outstrip the USA economically. Max 20 years. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by raumdeuter: 6:19pm On May 15 |
LordReed:You are the one who is mentioning systemic racism, Then define it |

budaatum:No sure I understand but it is ok |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by bayelsaowei(m): 6:31pm On May 15 |
benalvino3:Keep moving in your abject ignorance.. For you to call China Temu and then say their economy is in turmoil shows you are ignorant. I would leave you to wallow in your ignorance. If you leave an olodo like Trump and his associates to govern the US for a long time, China would definitely overtake the US. |
