Politics / Re: Osinbajo : Dark Side Of the Acting President by Yarduni: 12:43pm On Feb 19, 2017
GenBuhari:
Buhari never really knew of him or chose him to be his VP candidate for presidential elections he was apparently a choice of certain APC chieftains we have to presume.

There is still confusion who really installed Osinbajo as APC Vice Presidential Candidate, although he has links to Tinubu having previous been appointed Attorney General of Lagos under the governorship of Tinubu.

So who really is Osinbajo and who's interest would he serve?

My suspicion is that he is an agent of white imperialist powers and was installed by them in the VP position so that he replace Buhari after using Buhari popularity to take power from GEJ and PDP who had exhausted their usefulness to the imperialists.

A little digging into the background of Osinbajo will reveal that he has little experience of governance and has only the stint as AG of Lagos as his only previous political experience.

You may also discover that a law firm that he is a partner in was involved in prosecuting American pharmaceutical giant Pfeizer for their role in disabling ans killing many Nigerian children by using as unwilling and unsuspecting guinea pigs to test their drugs.

It is reported that Osinbajo and his law firm appeared to work with Pfeizer to help them get off lightly to the extent that almost no
compensation was paid to any victim.

Now one pastor a while ago "prophesied" that "some people" will give the VP problems.
Ok we are watching agents fulfilling prophecies starting with some ewarriors cool

OK suit yourself. Mind you even this how aptitude test questions I test your level of English sophistication. Take it from someone who has scored high in IELTS and many other English language aptitude tests.
This format of question is very common. And if you think taking literal meaning of individual words into exam halls is going to help you, then am sorry for you.
Am done here. Have a nice day.

You are not making sense. How do you come to terms with literal meaning? Is it not when the person tells you directly that what he said should be taken literally? If the person saying these words didn't clarify,then it's left to interpretation and least means a little bit, there is no swindling words there. A little bit of anti-semitic but anti-semitic nonetheless

There are aptitude test questions that use the same logic to test candidates. Saying "He is the least anti-semitic person" then you'd be given options like.
A. He is anti-semitic
B. He is not anti-semitic
C. He is sometimes anti-semitic
D. Non of the above
Which would you chose?

Words in the English language generally have two forms of usage: Connotative and denotative.

Connotative usage depends on context and is largely colloquial. As a result of this volatility, it is frowned upon in formal writing.

Denotative is the dictionary meaning.

"Least anti-semitic" could get you a pass among a small crowd but in a formal gathering, say the UN, could have your head on a pike.

Good argument but that doesnt take the meaning away from the word said. Its not our job to judge if the person is anti-semitic or not but its approaching what its said. The person saying this is most certainly anti-semitic disregarding if its least or most

Who gave you the authority to form your questions?
Because you can make one by adding 'a little bit e.g He is a little bit semitic because I think least means a little bit or smaller in quality or quantity.

Grammar is not basically how individual meanings of words are put together to provide interpretation, it is how the general consensus agreed to apply to those meanings.
Many words tend to metamorphose when used together with other words in a phrase or sentence.

Let's see this from the face value, as it is. Let's not be expert in reading people's minds.

Not is nothing, least denotes a certain amount of quantity or quality. So why would you say not and least can be used in the same terms?

Foreign Affairs / The Positive Effects Of Trump Presidency So Far by Yarduni: 7:42am On Feb 19, 2017
You think trump is all bad? Guess again. Check out what he has actually done for america for good in his time at the oval so far

1. Unprecedented levels of ongoing civic engagement.
2. Millions of Americans now know who their state and federal representatives are without having to google.
3. Millions of Americans are exercising more. They're holding signs and marching every week.
4. Alec Baldwin is great again. Everyone's forgotten he's kind of a jerk.
5. The Postal Service is enjoying the influx cash due to stamps purchased by millions of people for letter and postcard campaigns.
6. Likewise, the pharmaceutical industry is enjoying record growth in sales of anti-depressants.
7. Millions of Americans now know how to call their elected officials and know exactly what to say to be effective.
8. Footage of town hall meetings is now entertaining.
9. Tens of millions of people are now correctly spelling words like emoluments, narcissist, fascist, misogynist, holocaust and cognitive dissonance.
10. Everyone knows more about the rise of Hitler than they did last year.
11. Everyone knows more about legislation, branches of power and how checks and balances work.
12. Marginalized groups are experiencing a surge in white allies.
13. White people in record numbers have just learned that racism is not dead. (See #6)
14. White people in record numbers also finally understand that Obamacare IS the Affordable Care Act.
15. Stephen Colbert's "Late Night" finally gained the elusive #1 spot in late night talk shows, and Seth Meyers is finding his footing as today's Jon Stewart.
16. "Mike Pence" has donated millions of dollars to Planned Parenthood since Nov. 9th.
17. Melissa FREAKING McCarthy.
18. Travel ban protesters put $24 million into ACLU coffers in just 48 hours, enabling them to hire 200 more attorneys. Lawyers are now heroes.
19. As people seek veracity in their news sources, respected news outlets are happily reporting a substantial increase in subscriptions, a boon to a struggling industry vital to our democracy.
20. Live streaming court cases and congressional sessions are now as popular as the Kardashians.
21. Massive cleanup of facebook friend lists.
22. People are reading classic literature again. Sales of George Orwell's "1984" increased by 10,000% after the inauguration. (Yes, that is true. 10,000%. 9th grade Lit teachers all over the country are now rock stars.)
23. More than ever before, Americans are aware that education is important. Like, super important.
24. Now, more than anytime in history, everyone believes that anyone can be President. Seriously, anyone.

It means you are not anti semitic. It's only a way of a emphasizing. miss like saying Dangote the least broke Nigga among them. Doesn't mean he's broke.

Whats the difference between "not" and "least"? If you can get the correctanswer then you will understand why your response is flawed

This conversation reminded me of when somebody asked some disgruntled employees how much payrise they needed to be be gruntled because he thought the 'dis' was preventing them from bring gruntled. It is a bit like trying to pronounce the p in pneumatic, psychology or the b in plumber,yes it is pronounced plummer and not plumBer as Nigerians mispronounce it. English is a nuanced language. Now on to the matter at hand,in any large society you will find anti semitic people and people who are not anti semitic at all as well as semitic ' Jewish' people themselves so when somebody says he is the least anti semitic, he is saying that he is not anti semitic at all.That is just their language and being pedantic will only obfuscate things.It is just an expression in their language and sophistry would not help matters

You are the one confusing yourself, so whats the difference between saying 'I am Not' and 'I am the least' , remove all the pedantic and mind reading jargons out of the way

Oga,I lived in the UK for over twenty five years so am accustomed to the way they use the language and the various contexts for communication needs.That is just the way the language is used.

You didn't answer me.

When you say least? Are you talking about quantity or an amount of quality? Coz if you can't give me a coherent reply then you don't yet have an idea what my question is.

I think you are being unnecessarily pedantic, in english it basically means that the person is not anti Semitic. You may say I'm the least racist person around to show that you are not racist and abhor racism

I think you don't yet understand what least means in a quantitative terms? Or do you deny that the term "least" don't have to do with quantity? Let's say I'm the most evil or I am the least evil, it shows I'm evil regardless of the quantity. Do you deny this fact?

Staying on your topic ; we are all racist to a certain degree.

An anti-semite to whatever degree is still an anti-semite.

As long as you describe yourself as anti-semite then you are anti-semite.

It is within the group of anti-semite that you see yourself less radical than the most extreme anti-semite by describing yourself as being "least " anti-semite.

Hydrosulphuric acid is more potent than Tri-oxo carbonate acid but that doesn't make the latter not an acid!

Ok I get your point. You saying that even if I am most or least racist, I am still a racist.
