GalaticHorde: Long stereotype. When you are faced with problems you work hard. When everything is offered on a silver platter most will tend to relax especially if they don't have a mentor or role model. Claiming you are jobless because all your college mates are still not employed is self defeatist.Though it depends on the course undertaken.Pray how many openings are available for specializations like how leaks of oil pipelines underground can poison drinking water?Or how building a wall will affect a rare species of butterflies, 1 Like |

benalvino2:your last three paragraphs I can agree with, look I am not absolving black people of faults in their own struggles, I'm just saying the self hate, the infighting are all part of the social engineering to put black people as a race down! That is the reason why most white owned big record labels do not censure rappers when they target and incite violence against each other, describe black ladies as bitches, glorify thug life and prison incarceration but will censure a call for action against racist cops and institutions, belittling the holocaust, disparaging rape victims, homosexuals and what not! Why are the evils against blacks seen to be normal and less evil that the evils against other groups? It is down to social reprogramming at a multigenerational level and if you can't accept that truth then I leave you to your conscience 1 Like |

GalaticHorde:Now you are playing Jon Snow. Leftists applying the same standards they set for others to themselves? The same Leftists who downplayed Hillary Clinton's "Deplorable" quip? The same Leftist media who refuse to report on LeBron James tweeting and calling for the lynching of a police officer who simply saved a black girl who was being murderously attacked with a knife by another black girl by shooting the attacker? The same media who conveniently were reporting other news items but ignored the biggest newstory of that week following the shooting? The same media who never called for LeBron James to be banned from social media, dropped from sponsorships and be cancelled for putting a target on a police hero? The same media who conspired to punish Trump for the January 2021 Capitol Riots even though there was no evidence that he called for the invasion? The same Leftists who continue to praise LeBron James as a hero even though he hasn't apologized for putting an innocent police officer's life in danger? The same Leftist Loonies who have suppressed tweeting or writing about the Chrissy Teigen scandal because she reverberates Leftists talking points even though she's a promoter of cancel culture herself for erring public figures, especially on the Right? See how I am citing readily available evidence? Leftists hold themselves to the same standards as others? Don't spread falsehood when I am around - I'd bust it. 2 Likes |

opamoses1:First off, there's no such thing as "noises" as used in the context you used. If you want a chance at squaring up to me, the least you can do is not being dyslexic as articulation would be as stretch. Secondly, you should stick to being what your name depicts - a staff in biblical tales which shape-shifts to snake forms on command.

A white man employed him so what? does it mean he can't be racist, reminds me of the usual defence white people make when their racism is called out, they say they have black friends, in Nigeria Buhari will say he isn't a bigotry because he has a Igbo or Christian driver. 2 Likes |

opamoses1: Because others experience racism does not mean a country is racist. These days saying men are biologically stronger than women is sexist. In fact traffic lights are racist. The word racism is being thrown around. There was a time racism was part of the American system. They amended all that and come a long way in race relation only for the media to take us back. In the UK they want to abolish the police. They protested. What for? I can understand that awful idea coming from Americans but UK? At one point they say climate change is racist.

benalvino2:they amended racism? Are you for real? You think racism was/is just merely a law or a set of codes? Now I am understanding the limits of your understanding in the grasp of this topic. Racism means even though you benalvino get better grades a white employer will still prefer a white less academically brilliant fellow because he doubts in your case that the grades might not tell the full story or you might be a fluke! Bro racism is obviously bigger than your understanding as you apparently are projecting your own relatively smooth experiences onto a race of self loathing, hurting people 2 Likes |

opamoses1: Good. We know the narrative. And the guy who I was discussing with makes that assertion. I already told you I experience racism in the UK but it is not enough to affect me. I experience worse things here by people who think because I am in Nigeria I cannot get on a plane or have not seen a plane or I am poor. When I was living in the UK most of my cash I make go to the government and landlords.just to get a room in London can set you back £500 and its a shared kitchen and bathroom. I don't live in a council apartment which are subsidized. London a great city but cost of living is too high. I prefer Newport, dundee and other small cities but job now is a problem in those small cities. |

I don't know how the media is taking America back on race relations though, however I can tell which political party is more inclusive and which is not. I do not need any media to spoon feed me on that. Ps: I do not support abolishing the police and all other similar nonsense. I would rather have law enforcement than not have one. 1 Like |

opamoses1: Read through this thread: Notice something? Notice how everyone, regardless of their socio-political stances, are engaging and at least keeping the conversation going by making mentally-stimulating comments? Beginning to fell odd now and out of place compared to the banal, brain-cells-killing contributions you make? That's because you don't belong here. You'd do better by posting memes accompanied with a thousand emoticons like your condominium-on-wheels imaginary billionaire friend who keeps changing monikers weekly. The topic is about the hypocrisy of Democratic Party and its supporters. I've been consistent on that in the last few days. Think of this as an audition. Let's see if you can impress the reading public into think your brain activity isn't shunted. Your last chance and use it wisely. 1 Like |

benalvino2:In my understanding, if you are not a citizen or ILR permit holder, you might not qualify for subsidized or socialized housing. I am glad you acknowledged that racism exists, but there are also levels to it. You may experience in the face racism which may be harmful or harmless. Others have experienced worse racism that set them back in their career. Some racism experience have even led to death. So, one should not project our examples as same in which others experienced. We all read about the murder of Stephen Lawrence. I hope you understand me sha. 1 Like |

GalaticHorde: All I gave are issues you could easily verify. The LeBron James issue calling for the lynching of a police officer is available easily - it's online. The MSM not reprimanding him can be verified online. The MSM ignoring and refusing to cancel Chrissy Teigen is open secret. The MSM and Democratic Party refusing to punish and expel Liam O'mara, a Dem. Candidate ( asides him dropping out of the race), for threatening a black Conservative with a KKK hoodie is readily available online. The black Conservative made a police report and nothing is being done about it. In fact, verified accounts were supporting him. Are you willing to deactivate your known accounts if I post evidence of these, including links and screenshots? Your emotions do not count in the face of verifiable facts. |

Listen to yourself. benalvino2:Do you see how you just said you have to have interest to practise to build your skills and talent in engineering and NBA and NFL? Yet, you want to believe there is an inclination, as in a person's natural tendency or urge to act or feel in a particular way; a disposition, that one is born with. Now, lets say I deprive you of the opportunity to build up your skills in engineering, like if I tell you black people can not excel in engineering, and if I keep showing you blacks excelling in NBA or NFL and provide you with the means to.practice only NBA or NFL, can you see how I have inclined what you think is a natural tendency in you? benalvino2:A natural tendency has been inclined in you to believe the above, that "Blacks as a race is biologically stronger than whites", despite the fact that if I tell you you can never have an IQ as high as an Asian or whites, you must insult me, and my mama and papa too! Or do you want to argue that one does not build up skills and talents by practising a lot to get strenght, or that Muhammed Ali can have just relied on being "biological stronger" to beat Henry Cooper? Remind me. Was it not you who asked me to validate you were in UK? I forget. 2 Likes |
