Basilico, how are you processing the spygate mega scandal? Is this not the deep state trump was always projecting?

Trump and his minions are the deep state.
Deep state is trending on twitter.

Nigerians abroad will join the protest too.

What is the point of celebrating democracy when the citizenry is not getting the dividend of democracy.

I have a lot of respect for Nigerian youths we are only asking for a better Nigeria.

Who are you asking for a better Nigeria?

Did the America we are here discussing ask anyone for a better America, or did Americans get off their asses and make America a better America?

Be there asking! Soon come. In your dreams!

No, diss, I "have NO problem with seeing a Blair McIntire from Ireland with skin colour as white as #FFFFFF play King Jaja of Opobo" etc!

If I don't like it I don't have to go give them my money to see it! Or will someone come drag me out of my house and take my money to pay for it and force me to sit there and watch it?

Those who decide to pay "Blair McIntire from Ireland with skin colour as white as #FFFFFF play King Jaja of Opobo" etc have the right and the freedom to pay "Blair McIntire from Ireland with skin colour as white as #FFFFFF play King Jaja of Opobo" etc, provided they are not doing it to discriminate. And I have the right to remain in my house and keep my money in my pocket and to close my eyes to not see if I do mind.

I am liberal. I live and let live so long as you are not scaring the horses or sacrificing little children or littering the neighbourhood with helium filled ballons or discriminating due to race, colour, gender, religion, sex, etc etc etc.

I can respect that.

So, why then do blacks (the "Liberal" ones) for example, scream "cultural appropriation!" when Adele and Kim Kardashian braided their hair?

Why then was there outrage when some White kids tried to make money off Yoruba trademark last month and Nigerians were yelling the boys had no right to appropriate the Yoruba culture as White boys even though the boys aren't portraying it negatively? They were accused of trying to recolonize blacks as White English boys.

I thought it's anything goes. Black women can style and adorn Caucasian hairdos/wigs but a White woman braiding her hair is a culture cvulture?

Double standards?

You are funny. Are all Christians the same sort of Christian? Are all Muslims the same sort of Muslim? Are all Republicans trumpists? Are all Democrats Bernie? If not, why are you here making out that all liberals should be buda sort of liberal?

Disstroy! I know you are smarter than this!

You made a sweeping generalisation about the stance of Liberals on such issues, including cultural appropriation when you stated this is your previous reply to me:

Same thing as declaring "I am Nigerian. I believe Afang soup is the greatest soup man has ever made". To a non-Nigerian, what it means is, fhat's what all Nigerians believe about Afang soup.

Completely different from, "I am DssT.roy. I believe afang soup..."

Nigerians have to fight for better Nigeria the same way Americans fought Trump for better America and here we are today with victory on our side.

DissTroy:

You made a sweeping generalisation about the stance of Liberals on such issues, including cultural appropriation when you stated this is your previous reply to me:

How can I possibly be making a "sweeping generalisation" when I said "I am"? Do you not know that not all liberals have the same definition or understanding of the word? Even USA uses that word different to how we Brits do, so how can you possibly assume I mean "I am liberal like everyone else who says they are liberal"?

Are you certain you are not the one sweepingly generalising, Diss, by substituting my "I" for an imaginary "we"?

DissTroy:

Same thing as declaring "I am Nigerian. I believe Afang soup is the greatest soup man has ever made". To a non-Nigerian, what it means is, that's what all Nigerians believe about Afang soup.

I must say that I have met some non-Nigerians who do generalise as you claim, I do admit, but when they meet buda, they tend to insist that buda can not possibly be Nigerian, and I often point out to them its like not all people from their country is the same as them since all tbe people in their country did not all attend the same brainwashing do not use your brain school that they might have attended.

I think only ignorant brainless people will think as you describe above. Its like when some say "all Nigerians are crooks". I ask them if their mama and papa are crooks and suddenly they start to use the brain inside their heads!

DissTroy:
Completely different from, "I am DssT.roy. I believe afang soup..."

You mean like my "I am liberal"? Would you have me say "I, buda, is liberal" instead, lol!

I need to watch you carefully if you will misunderstand so, Diss! It will add to my work but I can try, for you.

I am with you Budaaman. I ask my cousins in Nigeria all the time why our people can't stand up to these inept Thieflicians spoiling the country. All maximum pressure should be unleashed on them because no country in West Africa can absorb 200 million God forbids war breaks out. Nigeria and Nigerians deserves better than what they are getting. A country so blessed by nature but turn to a laughingstock in the comity of Nations.

Sorry Pride, but we Nigerians get exactly what we deserve. Those you call Thieflicians, its not as if we go and hire our leaders from Mars, we get them from amongst our very selves, and that which abounds in our hearts is what abounds in our nation.

The wealth (blessed by nature, as you call it), is not what is in the ground, but the intelligence in our heads. That is why we are drowning in crude oil but have no petrol nor light.

Those who plant maize reap maize, those who plant cocoa reap cocoa, and those who sit on their asses waiting for manna to fall into their mouth from the heavens will reap their waiting for the manna from the heavens to fall into their mouths. We all get what we work for for that is all we deserve! And if we don't want to be ruled by thieves, we should stop stealing!

I agree with you 100%. I have been spending Christmas in Nigeria since 20 years ago when my parents moved to Nigeria and it's like the country is just going down yearly and I see our people hailing this Thieflicians and the reason why i do not understand. Tinubu was like a brother to my Dad when he was living in Chicago and he's still close to my Dad as at now and I always asks my Dad do he have any conversation with Asiwaju on the way Nigeria is trending and till date, I never get any concrete answers. The bottomline is that Nigerians especially the young people have to fight the inept leadership because their future is at stake.

Oh, the young will fight. Nigeria is in a position where the population of youths is increasing while the old are dying off fast, and those youth are impatient so would not wait long. The sad thing is their lack of an ability to properly reason, as we constantly can see here, a result of not properly being educated by their parents no doubt.

Nigerians think its bad now, but you wait a few years and then would we see what bad really looks like, then would we be like, can we have now back please, but it would be far too late, and after then might we wake up to our responsibility and things might just begin to change. 2040, if I'm being conservative, but more like 2070 when the generation after the next generation take over is what I predict, though I hope I am very wrong.

I guess that's why I'm here, to ensure I am very very wrong.

Should a thief keep his cash? Should a vote thief keep his position?
Afterall you kept saying Trump should be removed because Muh-Russia interfered with 2016 elections

Double standards. You thrive exceedingly well on hypocrisy - fueled by ignorance I concluded long time ago.

Tdotbluejays1:

And has Buhari's ban on twitter affected twitter in any way. Be truthful, who is the greatest loser. Nigeria or Twitter?

If it hasn't I don't really care, if it has I still don't care. My point is and has always been Twitter does not have the right to interfere with another countries politics. United States has banned some platform in their country,

The UK even ban true caller. To remain functional Twitter has complied the rules of India. Make e be like that. As for me I use Twitter more and I will direct anyone to use VPN to access Twitter.

The only way Biden can be Removed now is through impeachment if they find voter fraud. I don't know of any process that can reinstate trump directly as it is

JUST IN - Attorney General Merrick Garland announces that the Justice Department will scrutinize any post-election audits for evidence of voting law violations. https:///asXkJtXzby

Biden's admin is trying to discredit the audit. I think they are scared

Im not interested in Joe Biden being removed My greatest wish is that fraud in Arizona is proved and made public that Trump carried the state.
The reactions of the media, big tech,bloggers and lefties will be priceless.
The era of true journalism will then begin.We have propaganda for news from the MSM

I just want media exposed and shamed because they are frankly irredeemably corrupt. The media has turned lefties into mindless zombies. The left might come to their senses and common sense solutions can then be debated fairly.

The DoJ did not investigate fraud claims.There were hundreds of affidavits lodged by GoP supporters If Arizona discovers fraud , the DOJ will lose face and credibility.

I will like to see how this unfolds. The blue districts in Texas has flipped red so far let's see what 2022 will bring.

Trump lost and Biden won legitimately you clowns should give it a rest already.

In 2016 Trump said if he didn't win the election then it was rigged against him when he won he said it was the best election ever but still failed to accept that he lost the popular vote and claimed it was rigged against him in California.

Trump was never going to accept a loss in the Republican primary in 2016 when Cruz won Iowa or was it New Hampshire the clown said it was rigged.
I don't know why these grown men here have refused to use their senses and see that trump is playing them he was never going to accept the result if he lost.

Trump lost Biden won end of discussion rest already Biden will get a second Term and trump will not come back to the white house.

Why are they afraid of audits.Several state reps have visited the Arizona audit and are planning on conducting one too.. At least off my head the states that flipped to Joe Biden have expressed interest in conducting an audit eg PA, Wisconsin,Georgia,NH,

They should welcome an audit.
The AZ audit is being livestreamed. Last I checked 9 streams

Deep state is trending on twitter.

If you know Twitter well enough and understand social media marketing, you'd know anything can trend on Twitter even by spamming it.

25 people (each having 10,000 followers) sitted in a large hall tweeting a particular phrase and retweeting each other's tweets at 40 tweets per hour and retweets of that hashtag per person can force the hashtag to trend.

Normally, digital marketers jump on a trend to promote their services/goods too so they unwittingly sustain the trend.

I've seen these things. That's all I'd tell you. You can sustain the trend at the first 3 trends using that method for at least 6 hours by tweeting from the same Twitter location too.

No it is not.A simple restructuring alone will douse some tensions in this country.The youths have offered solutions but what position in government do they hold to implement such changes if not to continue calling on the leaders in office to act
