Foolishness! He even likened the failed man to King Lear! The men feasting on Buhari's balls are liquid. How do you go beyond the limits of failure? Simple. Just add Buhari. http://www.mortalpoet.com/things-learn-change-government/ |
JuanDeDios:Wrong diagnosis. I'm done with this argument. I'm not paid to argue here. |
princetom1:What is wrong is wrong? What makes it wrong? You are begging the question. Why is it wrong to begin with? Feelings? Emotions? Or logic? |
BetaThings:I wrote this about two months ago about the man and I don't see how a good comprehension of the post you quoted relieved him of any crime. I don't get how saying one man is worse among two men means the other or his action is good. http://www.mortalpoet.com/im-shocked-shocked-shocking-fruits-donald-trump/ |
greiboy:Better. |
greiboy:Okay. Let me relax. |
schwarzkopf:I've got no energy for this. Thank you, for your time. |
schwarzkopf:It is not enough. I need a sound argument against it. I don't do the emotional or crowd mentality stuff. |
greiboy:I honestly don't think it will be fair to engage a person who thinks Trump is like Hitler a honest discussion. Hitler. What do you know about the Fuhrer of the Third Reich? You know how many people he killed every single day in Warsaw, Poland? You know how many million Jews died in the Holocaust? You know how he rose from an ordinary voter to the Fuhrer of Germany? Go read up bro. We can't be having the discussion from this angle. |
greiboy:Nobel Prize For Peace? I could still recall his attempt in establishing peace in the first two years leading to that prize. But then we never knew he was like Janus. A human head and a lion head in one trunk. Those are not enough. I'm not here to nail Obama or to criticise him but to put issues in proper perspective. He committed...He committed...But what then? What did he do? Who created instability in Africa and the Arab world by trying to purge Libya of despotism? What was his role in making peace in Libya after all the committing? Trade deals are still happening and I could recall how he helped in making sure our oil never gets into America. I wonder what Trade Deal means from that point. Set the tone in the Middle East? And we have ISIS today in Libya, Syria, Afghan, Iraq and Bahrain? You mean this tone that led to the movement of Migrants from the Christians populated Aleppo city of Syria to Europe? How was ISIS formed? How do you train a people to support a course and dismantle them later? Are we stupid not to know that a Soldier trained must not be disposed in such trashy way? |
Obi1kenobi:So who do we blame for the killing of Gaddafi? Who was in charge of NATO that gave support to the rebels who till day have made the country a joke? Who tried to replicate the Libyan example in Syria with rebels, but failed because of Russian interference? Congress? The President doesn't have Veto Power anymore for the greater good? Who lobbied congress? Why hasn't Congress, using the Leah law, caused the cessation of arms sales and gifts to rebels in Syria? I'd have gone as far as asking who created ISIS but that can easily be dismissed for conspiracy theory. |
AAinEqGuinea:True, that's not a fair comparison but saying he's worse than Hitler is also a premature and erroneous comparison. Hitler murdered Jews in their millions and showed, with actions not words, that he wanted the race over. Has Trump done so? On the Obama line, my argument was based on the moment. My point is that the world is crazy and biased. If we want this man lynched for uttering just opinions, why do we glorify the men who actually killed? Is that fair? |
Obi1kenobi:So, can we weigh their actions objectively to see whose is first on the demonic scale? Let's do it. I hate doing this. Being a slave is a poor argument that can also be used to defend Trump's arrogance and stupidity so far. Yes, you are controlled by the Bloodlines but your actions and whatever happens in your tenure is seen as your responsibility. That's the basis of your reelection or assessment. So how do we compare the two? One sees women as tools, the other sees women as gold. One didn't initiate the murder of women and children because of one man but the other did. One hates black people and doesn't hide it the other doesn't but he couldn't help black people in Africa conquer terrorism and tacitly aided terrorists. How can Obama even come out on top in any real assessment? Except we are trying to access their character before getting into government. That's the only way Obama can appear better on the moral scale. |
AAinEqGuinea:But that's true. I'm not defending any of them but trying to weigh their crimes objectively. Let's weigh their crimes on a scale and see whose weigh more. Who destroyed Libya and what was the result today? Who destroyed Syria and what do we have today? Who tacitly helped Boko Haram and where are we today? Who tried forcing homosexuality on Africans and used it as a war tool? What do I weigh these crimes with and it would come out better? Trump's foul mouth and crude behaviour? His insult to women and black people? Both are bad but the former can never appear above on a moral scale in a morality class. |
Obi1kenobi:That's how it seems. Obama destroyed Libya, Syria, ordered soldiers who destroyed many families and homes, tried to force homosexuality in Africa, aided Boko Haram tacitly but because he is more diplomatic, he's seen as better as the foul mouthed Trump. At the lay level, it seems he's a better person but he's not. The difference between Obama and Trump is that Trump is a wolf in wolf's clothing while Obama is a Wolf in Sheep's clothing. |
Ranchhoddas:If you get poetry you will get him. The bard was a master in that field and used it to communicate meanings. Just try writing ten lines of Iambic Tetrameters and tell how long it took you. Rhythm was his thing. I don't think he's overrated, I only think he's projected as the peak of literary writing. I don't think there's a peak. |
pabostt:What if I redirect traffic from Nairaland, LindaIkeji and Vanguard traffic to my blog for a month? ![]() |
princetom1:Do Christians worship the Pagan God on Christmas? It's true, they were not commanded to. Do you know that the Celebration of Birthdays have a pagan origin according to the Bible? But Christians celebrate it. Why do they celebrate it? To please the pagan God they don't worship or what? |
princetom1:That's why I ask, what is in day? Are Christians celebrating the Saturnalia that day? If not, is anything wrong because it has a pagan origin? Why do we communicate with words whose origins are pagan? Or communication with the creations of pagans, like when we use the days and months, is different celebrating a day which was pagan's? What's the link? |
This makes perfect sense. "The purpose of having money is to help us. How does money help us? We use money to get what we need but when we keep it, it becomes dormant as if we do not have. In the same vein, when you have wisdom or knowledge and you do not exploit them, nobody will know you have them". |
It's complex. The days, Moon Day, Tiu's Day, Woodens Day, Thor's Day, Friya's Day, Saturn's Day, Sun Day and the Months from Janus, etc all have pagan origins but we still use them. What's different? When we say Monday are we celebrating the Moon God worshipped on Monday? When we say January are we celebrating Janus, the two faced God? What is in a date if a different thing happens? What is in a week day if the use doesn't reference its etymological implication? |
Ohaneze, bikonu, what is this na? We don't need this daft thinking please. |
Why not place a DPR person in all the stations and record what's happening there while they sell petrol. When you seal it, you cut short. I know it's our usual way of using force than wit. Don't worsen the already bad situation. Just send your staffs across the stations for monitoring. There's no need to seal up any one. That's if this is true. Anstalk.com? |
The media attack against that troublesome man is just too much. I follow NowThis and NowThis Politics, two American pages, on Facebook and I've seen hate on the man to know what a media attack is. Trump can do no good but Hilary and Obama are good people. I don't buy that narrative. Even though I don't consider Trump a good person, I don't think Hillary and Obama are better. The media is against the man but he doesn't care. |
Smh. So God will support Israel even when they do wrong? I'm not even trying to judge here just asking. While Christians support Israel, the Muslims support the Arabs. Colonisation of the mind. We are in big mess. http://www.mortalpoet.com/religion-in-nigeria-christians-israel-muslims-arabs/ |
We need to step and raise our conscious level. A party shouldn't be winning all seats at the local government level just because they are in charge at state level. INEC has to do something about that. |
mickeyenglish:Why would Francis Bacon, Lord Chancellor, hide under a pseudonym? |
eghuan1:I think it's purely a confusion of metaphor for denotative language. I think when Shakespeare spoke of the Dark Lady in his Sonnets, that is, the beggetter of his poems, it was confused for a black skin lady. After making a little research, these are my findings. First, she's not white but a Jewish, and she's not dark either. She's a writer too with similar writing content, not style, as W.S. She is the first woman to write something in England. She's a feminist, a stage performer and teacher. https://www.snopes.com/amelia-bassano-william-shakespeare/ https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/john-hudson/shakespeares-dark-lady-amelia-bassano-lanier/ My inference. If she was black she wouldn't have been allowed to publish a book in the England of that time. If she was black she wouldn't be allowed into the schools to teach anyone or on stage to address any audience. Even Michael Jackson, in the 80s, had to change skin colour. I think the confusion comes from the fact that she's not 'so white'. She's not white and her colour was a bit tanned like that of Barack Obama. More like the face of the Singer Jennifer Lopez. The name W.S could have been anything, but left to me, if there's anyone that fits the profile, it is that muse, agnostic and nonconformist, Christopher Marlowe. It is not Amelia Bassano Lanier. |
Simple. Eat banana. Or place a cube of sugar on your tongue. |
Same stories. How do I raise the Alexa Ranking of this blog to be in the first ten in Nigeria. . www.mortalpoet.com |
eghuan1:Those are conspiracy theories. No one knows for sure. He was unknown when Marlowe ruled and after that his disappearance(Marlowe was hit with a bottle in a beer parlour. That was the story put out) W.S surfaced. But a black woman? I don't think so. And considering the time, it stripes the narrative of credence. What is a black woman doing in England in the 16th century? Then, slavery has not happened and even if it is happening, when did she master meters and trochaic to that extent when it was a crime to even give a black person an education? Yeah. Their were crackers. When Black people kept white slaves we intermixed but that was over 30 centuries. It wasn't just some five century ago. The story doesn't have any base to stand on. On maybe I'm making an argument without understanding what was said or presented. Tell me, what exactly was the argument? How did they link it? |
eghuan1:Black woman? Or Christopher Marlowe? I'm surprised there's a record of the muse getting married at 18. For all we know, his works became popular after Marlowe died. When you read Dr Faustus it has all the attributes of a Shakespeare novel. Occult. Mystery. Devil. Meters. Etc. It's a conspiracy theory but it seems valid. Because he wrote like Marlowe, in Iambic Pentameters and smart trochaic, because Marlowe was rumoured to have worked with the secret service, because nothing was known about W.S before the time, it is not entirely preposterous to pursue the conspiracy theory that Marlowe is W.S. |
