I get annoyed at these things. What would it take a government to correct this disdain shown Nigerians flying? I mean, why is this even a complaint? What's hard here? I don't understand. This doesn't require money or a big move but just little step. Is it that there is a demon that blinds our rulers? The same way Chinese and Lebanese companies use us like dirty rags. To me, this looks easy to stop. I don't understand these people. It won't take them anything.

I think this country was built to fail. The fact that we are too heterogeneous in actions and thoughts, that a people brag about defeating another people, in one country, is a testament of our difference.

We are too heterogeneous and this type of speech is not really bad in a heterogeneous setting. No need to curse the guy because we will say the same thing when posed with threats of race preservation.

If we saw ourselves as one, or even try to be one, such words will not exist in our lexicon. I'm not against tribalism, that is, love for and preservation of your tribe. There is nothing wrong with it.

He's right. Fulanis have remained unbeatable. They roll religion into tribal identity and get soldiers on two fonts. One. The non-fulani confused Muslim who defends them. Two. The Fulani Muslim. That's genius.

This is why I insist that Nigerian lecturers generally have zero understanding of the meaning of education. Egocentric dunces who have nothing but pain and stupidity to offer.

They confuse toughness for genius and for another stupid reason confuse this for greatness. And the dull students let this piss of shit rub on them. They confuse this for greatness.

How do you explain calling graduates with better grades from private schools secondary school pampered students? Because they have more first class they are not good enough. Stupidity!

Look at Yale, Harvard and Cambridge and see if such useless parameters are considered for greatness. Our lecturers need cranium, psychometric tests. Their attitude stink.

A true test of what learning entails will show that schools like Covenant, Atiku American University, Madonna, are better than state and federal run universities. We confuse hardship for greatness in this country.

Blue3k:
Your amnologies suck dude that's why they can't be understood. Second he said both statements in presence of blacks. I don't care if you like Ghandi or not it's your business. If he hurt your feeling ok but it doesn't mean he's violent.

Hid legacy still lives on. The black leaders world over already acknowledge him from Mandela to MLK. Lol you diverted yet again when did I ask you to make Ghandi your hero. I even said he's not mine. Anyway the argument has dragged on long enough.

Smh.

Blue3k:
Good you can admit his legacy had impact. Lol the same guts methods also helped black man but you won't conceed that. He died before the Rosa park incident. You even ignorant to say he didn't support African rights when he did. I don't care who your hero is. Ghandi not even mine but I don't feel need to lie about him. Even Nelson Mandela had good things to speak of him.

The rest of the stuff you said not even true. Where did he support or call for murder? Is this annotheron of yiur metaphors? Yes he was racist doesn't mean he was violent.

Lol. He still pretends he doesn't understand analogies. The quote you just picked is the reason I wonder why such man should be your hero. On one hand he hates black people while on the other hand, in company of blacks, he hails them. Why make such a person you hero. You've admitted he hated black people and I think that's enough for me.

The owners of Nigeria.

Blue3k:
Non violent protest and helping to end colonial rule in India. Inspiraring future civil rights leaders like MLK. These are big accomplishments.

Very good, for India. Yes, big. Even Hitler accomplished something great. But as an African he supported every treatment the British meted out to you. He supported the burning of your likes. He supported the torture of Rosa Parks in that all white bus. He supported the hanging of dead black people on city gates. He supported them because he supported racism. Now why make such man your hero?

Blue3k:
You only told me he's racist which known fact. By your logic because he hurt your feeling he's violent person. The crime of calling is calling you Nigger essentially. If you don't want him to be your hero ok that's your preference. Point is his legacy lives on and his ideals is what civil rights movement was based on. That's where black leader Martin Luther King Jr drew his Inspiration.

Your amnologies were poorly made and simply because tgey weren't apples to apples. You jumped from Hitler to boko Haram. The best on was Trump but even he's not violent by definition.

What legacy exactly?

Blue3k:
You said Ghandi is violent for words and racist ideas then divert to other topics like Hitler and bvoko haram who commited violent acts such masd murder. Boko Haram falls under definition 1. This is digestion yet again.

● Hurting your feeling isn't violent act.
● Having strong emotions doesn't make you violent person legally.
● Being a racist isn't violent act that assaults annother person.

Lol. And I'm supposed to believe you don't get analogies? I just showed you Gandhi is violent and unworthy to be a black man's hero but you don't want to accept it.

Blue3k:
By the dictionary definition you are the way your logic workd. Again yiur diverting from point. Holding regressive mentality isn't violence. Being mean, spiteful racist isn't an act of violence to anyone's person. Thr fact he hurt your feeling isn't violence against you.

You said strong emotions are violent so anyone with strong emotions are violent people.

Strong emotions are violent just for being strong emotions? Where did I say that strong emotions are violent? Blue3k is a human being but every human being is not blue3k. How is that hard to grasp? Read everything again. This is just be cause you don't want to accept that a man who hates you for your skin colour is not qualified to be your hero. Tell me, would it be wrong to assert that a person who worships and adores his hater is a mental slave?

Blue3k:
By the dictionary definition you are the way your logic workd. Again yiur diverting from point. Holding regressive mentality isn't violence. Being mean, spiteful racist isn't an act of violence to anyone's person. Thr fact he hurt your feeling isn't violence against you.

How am I diverting? Are those killed by Boko Haram violent for simply experiencing hurt? And how does our definition support this?

Blue3k:
You have strong emotions and seem passionate about issue. Your vehement disdain for racism is violent by the dictionary definition you privided. Are you a violent person?

You keep diverting from point. Ok he's hypocrite that doesn't make him violent. Saying mean thing isn't violence. Where did he glorify war or are you making a metaphor?

No, I'm not. I already answered that. Look up. I don't run from any argument. Now tell me, that is, after reading my answer above, how is hatred against black people progressive?

Blue3k:
Your vehement disdain for racism is violent. Are you a violent person?

No. Hatred for racism is not destructive so it cannot be qualified with the term. Are we violent because he fight diseases? Are we violent because we fight bad governance? You see, we are positively constructing something in these areas and cannot called violent people.

Blue3k:
Love is also a strong emtion so is passion. Lol it's a moot point. Just say you want to classify everyone as violent if that's the case.

But the point here is that racism is a strong emotion and he's been deployed it against black people or those he prefers to call Kaffir. If a person preaches forgiveness but hold grudges isn't such a character a hypocrite? Is a man preaches love and exudes hate isn't he a hypocrite? If a man preaches peace but glorifies war is he not to be spoken of in the language of the other two other examples?

The meme is old but seems like the creator saw the future.

Blue3k:
No because you misused the definition of violence. This definition refers to strong emotions. That would mean anyone that feels strong emotions towards anything is a violent person. I doubt you'll classify everyone as violent.

Is racism not a strong emotion, hate, for people of different colour?

Blue3k:
Yes because the are against free speech. Hurting your feeling isn't an act of violence. Nobody going to be arrested for being a racist. The definition of peace would gave to conform to legal definition of violence and respect freedom of speech to valid.

Second you went to definition 2 of violence which correlates to strong emotions like furry or rage. "the violence of his passion". Why not use 1st definition like most people would or the law defition like government does.

Violence:
the unlawful exercise of physical force or intimidation by the exhibition of such force.

Violence: behavior involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something.

Is any of the definitions wrong? If both are correct how then is Gandhi not violent?

Blue3k:
You confusing issues now. Racism prejudice in heart or words isn't violence. Lynching is violence. Calling you Nigger is mean ehile hanging you is murder. Peace is non violence. You bring up violent acts because yiubcant tell me saying mean words is an assault to your person. It's only hurts your feeling.

You be delved outside your original points since you want to start asking was Hitler or Ghandi good. It's all opinion Hitler honestly isn't much worse than the other racist killers in his day.


I told you peace is non violence. Aka non aggression principle. Hurting people physically is violent. Hurting feeling is nobodies problem but person or group offended by language used. Impolite behavior isn't illegal.

I'm defending him because yiur trying to paint false picture. You adequate racism to violence which it's not. You can't point to violent act he's done. Second him being racist in 50's isn't a big deal. I already told you I don't look for perfection in humans. His character flaws don't take away from his legacy or impact on world.

Do you disagree with this definition of violence and peace.

Violence:

Strength of emotion or of a destructive natural force.

Peace:

Freedom from disturbance; tranquillity.

Nutase:
Please accept it. Course of study is not relevant in the Nigerian labour market.

Of course it is. I don't think there's any Radiologist in this country that is unemployed.

Trex4, don't accept it if you have no love for it. Don't rush into what you don't love because at the end you will not happy with it. Animal Farm is a good course but don't choose it because you are tired of staying at home.

Blue3k:
Speech isn't violence. Hurting your feeling isn't assault. It's impolite but it's same as instigating violence. This slippery slope logic is how societies end up with restrictive hate speech laws. Free speech has to leave room for other people to express themselves in ways you don't necessarily agree with as long the aren't instigating violence or screening fire in theatre when there's none.

We know he's not a virtuous character. I just don't see him as violent. I think a person's actions make them violent in personal or through state.

Lol. This is a joke. Not Violent? Is racism a word, an action or both?

Trump is a billionaire and the POTUS, do you think he's violent? Why do Indians lynch black people for committing same crimes fellow Indians are warned for? What is the effect of the cycle of evil?

What is peace? If a man wants world peace will he hurt any body? Will he try to do just what is legal or what is good? Will he be impolite? Why are you defending this guy who hates your likes? Why?

Is Hitler a good man because he was good to the Aryan race? It seems this is your argument for Gandhi. Gandhi was great to India but to humanity what is he worth? Why are you defending this guy?

Unfortunately this is true.

Blue3k:
You can be peaceful and racist. I understand peace to be the opposite of violent. He's respected for his non violent struggle against British. Racism can't be opposite to what he preached since he believed in caste system. We could talk for hours how messed up some of his beliefs were but all this information is one YouTube video away.

You can't preach peace and be a racist. They are diametrically opposed except the preachers knowledge of what peace really means is jaundiced. Then it ceases to be peace.

You can't insult and denigrate people for their skin colour and make them feel bad about themselves and at the same time you are telling everyone to imbibe peace. That's double standards.

None has stuck to their agreement and this won't be different. If he eventually wins he's not going to be loyal. We've seen it in T.A Orji and Orji Kalu, Obiano and Peter, Ikpeazu and T.A Orji, Gburubguru and Chime, Elechi and Umahi. It has never worked. That is my consolidation.

Blue3k:
Looking for perfection in humans is pointless endeavor. Nobody is pure good and rarely pure evil most of time. Ghandi was a creep but it doesn't detract from his overall legacy. Albert Einstein liked sleeping with his 1st cousin but it doesn't take away from achievements.

Ghandi is a racist and racism is antithetic to almost everything he preached. You can't preach peace and even receive a noble price for peace but have the mind of a monster.

“Kaffirs(black people) are as a rule are uncivilised – the convicts even more so. They are troublesome, very dirty and live almost like animals. Each ward contains nearly 50 to 60 of them. They often started rows and fought among themselves. The reader can easily imagine the plight of the poor Indian thrown into such company"

The clampdown on Marijuana, for me, is one of the stupidest action in the world. If alcohol, which is very harmful, can be permitted why should marijuana, that opens the human mind, be demonized?

I think when countries like America do it it is because they are afraid of the mass awakening that could arise from it. They know that marijuana increases the effects of the frontal lobe and de-atrophies the Pineal Gland(the 3rd eye) and Pituitary Body.

More people die from eating red meat and alcohol than from marijuana. While smoking anything, for combustion, antagonises the lungs, marijuana, for simply being marijuana is not bad. Nicotiana tobacuum is more dangerous but you can smoke freely in this country.

I think the world will be healthier if alcohol and red meat are banned, high cholesterol foods banned and banning of other high density lipoproteins and giving marijuana license to operate. It's a great plant and can be the spirit molecule to our soul's troubles.

Do we really need the opinion of one dunce on the front-page of Africa's largest forum?
