Why does the whites likes calling police on blacks...what do they tend to gain...i see it as wickedness

The Police is a veritable Tool of White oppression of Black people, from day one.
using it to harass or disrupt their life or criminalise their records, is part of the gain

Stop moaning and answer my point...

You were the one running down Nigerians and once I called you out you couldn’t take it..

Well maybe think before running your mouth..
you should just apologize. you know you are in the wrong; that is why you edited the post in the first place. A simple "sorry" would put all these to rest. People should be able to discuss opposing views without insults

When a man writes a post abusing Nigerians I won’t apologise..

I removed the words not because I wanted to placate him, because I didn’t want the point to get blocked or removed. It is important that young Nigerians know that as a people we can succeed. That there are successful Nigerians sometimes of modest origins who have made it at home and in the west.

This guy know he is being myopic, hence why he couldn’t answer when I challenged him.

The other guy knows I know my stuff but was upset when I called him out on his lies. Additionally while my focus was on work and if you are lucky later success. He was the one bragging about his high IQ and how he was rich as fuc..

Some Nigerians don’t like to be challenged and like to take the moral high ground when they are called out.

I appreciate the sentiment of your post, but I don’t frequent nairaland to placate those riddled with self hate and who spew poison against our people.

I am here to make sure the light passed to me by hardworking uncles who successfully ran businesses and held their own against other groups sometimes weirdly worshipped on this forum never dies out..

Respect and love to you..

Make I no lie.

As long as I am making enough legit money in Nigeria I have no problem living here, though the thought of living outside the country crosses my mind at times but abroad no freak me a bit.

I can't come and die of depression because there is no one to talk to or everywhere is silent I like making noise... I like saying hi to my neighbours, the sensible neighbours.

I like noise on a steady.

But if God can grant me one wish, that would be may God put anyone who doesn't want this country to move forward to complete and utmost shame, that is my only problem.

Abroad no freak me but it wouldn't be bad if I make money finish travel out for a vacation, that's highly needed.

3. You hold money to pay armed robbers in uniforms and in mufti in case yawa gas
4. Your one pound is my N700
5. No job let alone facing job discrimination
6. We thin because we regulate our feeding formular 001 (Morning, Afternoon, night)

Point 5 is pretty much self explanatory... but to expand further, ... Nigerian churches abroad are toxic because everything bad about Nigeria is practised there; mediocrity, corruption, nepotism, classism, hypocrisy, wickedness, envy, arrogance etc..
The focus is neither on God, nor attaining righteousness but rather on showing off, making money and being rewarded with titles in within the organisation (church).
... This is why you'd see economically disadvantaged people who actually live in council houses, dressing like millionaires in church whilst looking down on others who are just as poor as they are.. respect and honor is given to the most superficial of things.

Nigerian women tend to get into a lot of drama at work, fighting with other black women then expect us to have their back, when the had used us for practise in the first place.

They go sleeping around with akata/married men but can't deal with the consequences of the lifestyle.
Nigerians are their own worst enemy, the notion to outwit the other guys tends to make us all suspicious of each other.
Nigerian women do well but when they do too well, they find themself alone, or loose the Nigerian identity

I've heard people covering their faces with newspapers in the elevators in New York to avoid saying hello to people but most of the list especially the part of not knowing your neighbors is not true in the southern part of the US because of HOA meetings and most neighborhoods can tell who is new to the area and that takes a lot of getting to each other.

My point is, you would think white men would be the biggest perpetrators of racism and oppression in the workplace but in actual reality, white women are...
...and your fellow blacks will never have your back.
That's not the only point you mentioned. Most men are happy with your initial post, this second one is quite different. So which is it? That black men run after white skin because it's white, or you're alleging black women abroad have a problem or it's a post about racism? Because you're fueling gender wars in one post and dragging out a lot of frustrated men to begin mentioning in another.

So George Lucas (star wars billionaire) Eve's husband (Maximillion Cooper), Rihanna's Ex, Janet Jacskons Ex are all losers? All these men are billionaires married to or have dated high quality black women.

Stop the hate. All the Youtube interracial couples I follow (black women/white men) have working good looking husbands. Black women who marry outside never settle for less. They have standards and with such standards they are ready to pick any man from any race (black, white, whatever) as long as he meets their standards.

Stop the hate on black women.

Most African American men who marry white women either pick the bottom of the barrel groupies or marry the one's white men term 2's and 4's.




You saw it's name is frustrated, and you expected any good comment out of it? That one worships white women's skin, and has a lot of false expectations about how they are eager to please black men like himself.

It's just a regular women hater. It will never see good in women. And it believes all women should be barren while it wants a family.

That is the least of insensible infertile men on the platform. It's looking for rejected white women who want to live out the BBC fantasy or need love because they cannot get it from their race.

But I mentioned several in my first comment. E dey pain you. Unlike your type I don't hype the white's but when your type brings down black women, I have to educate you.

The richest man in entertainment (George Lucas) has a black baby same as Janet Jackson with her Arab billionaire ex. Of course these are men that have so much more to offer.

What did the likes of Larsa Pippen have to offer the simp Scotty Pippen or OJ Simpson white thrash wife who sought a white boyfriend as soon as she got that divorce white from OJ Simpson?
You can bring down and talk thrash about yourself and your acquaintances but leave black women out of your low self-esteem.

Those two men who keep quoting you are just pathetic white arselickers with who hate women and have ego issues. It destroys their world when a black woman rejects them. They have fits when black women express opinions and choices on them, nevermind the way they have always been on womenfolk cases.

They think they are all that. They think women are falling all over them. They live in a lie they have told themselves to believe.

Too much porn and Playboy has destroyed their perception of white women. They've lied that white women are submissive to them, when the truth is that they so adore white skin that they become slaves to white women. If it's black women, they will show that they are egotistic men.

No wonder more black women are getting trendy young men, while they are looking for old white mother's at retirement age. You need to see them on lol

You started a speech with calling me foolish and you want me to pay attention to the rest. I called justwise's attention to that. Then, I checked a few of your previous messages because the ability to use a foul language on a stranger in a civil conversation says a lot about a person's personality, upbringing or culture, which, on one hand, could be a spontaneous reaction (which is forgivable), or a common trait in that person, which speaks to the person's personality. In your case, I didn't even go far before seeing similarly insulting words used against others. Two things I picked from that: 1. You're claiming there is no hostility among Nigerians using yourself as an example, whereas you're online calling people names. If that isn't an example of hostility, then, I don't know what is. 2. Your logic is that slowpoke wasn't addressed to me, so I should keep quiet, right? By that logic, was my original post which you replied to with an insulting opening line addressed to you?

You can extend this message to frustrated007, the most frustrated man on the planet. That one is abusive, cursing and still thinks he will get away with it, but it will get him very soon. And there are 2 other men like him on this thread.

Kindly inform your brothers to stop heaping curses and abuses on females they have never met before, otherwise they will get frustrated and miserable in life. The hatred they have for women is no excuse to exhibit ill upbringing and poverty at a glance, because it's only the gutters that can spill such rubbish in bold letters and feel they can get away with it.

Imagine mentioning someone who never had business with you, to tell them their ovaries will dry up and other such insanity? Isn't that the height of the true foolishness and idiocy we are talking of on this thread? A man who can be rendered infertile and his testicles dried up in turn feels he is in a position to curse and abuse women's fertility out of the blue? These men who feel they can curse, and do anything they want to do to women, will bring that attitude online. It looks like they are insane.

The mannerlessness of some posters is disgusting. You will wonder how they interact with other people in real life.

I agree with the OP that black women in Europe and the USA can be perilous to date. Those in the USA are by far the most damaged by systemic racism, which predisposes them to explosive outbursts of anger that can trigger violence.

If you reside in America, avoid black American women like the plague. They are NOT at all similar to Nigerian or African women. Black American women cuss and swear like drunken sailors constantly, and they will knife or shoot their man without hesitation, even in the absence of any provocation.

Date white, Mexican or Oriental women, if you can woo them, but if you cannot, then you are far better off ALONE, than risking your life dating a black American woman, 90% of whom are grossly overweight and ugly looking anyway, as a result of eating junk food, avoiding all exercise, and instead lavishing what little welfare money they get, on ridiculous, garish colored and elaborate hair styles from hell.
