ijebosb: I think that if one seriously believes that "By communicating with degenerates it denigrates the thread", one wouldn't communicate with degenerates unless one wants to degenerate the thread. I also think that communicating with degenerates might infect one with degeneracy, but what does buda know. They did go silent during your recent break though, and tried trolling me instead, but failed because I refuse to feed trolls and stupid idiots with my very precious time, which I guess is not easy effort for a collective.

budaatum:So you get it. budaatum: I think you've lived in the West too long. I have that mentality until I enter Nigeria and until the 4th or 5th person tries to grab my bags, then I have to change up. Sometimes, Nigerians only hear when they are embarrassed. Sux to say that. |

raumdeuter: Make up your mind. Did you want me to answer your question or not?. It's the first time I talked about the education of my parents or the type of house I'm in when I'm in Naij. The small shit I post here, is small ish. I can't post real stuff because it'll be easier to identify me. |

ijebosb: You think I "Lived in the West too long", like I don't go to Nigeria? Sorry, but that statement is as lame as it being claimed I don't know anything about America because I've never been there. For your information, and so you don't just rely on your thinking, my last time in Nigeria was January 2014-April 2016, during which I wasn't just visiting, but worked there. And no one tried to grab anything of mine, because I don't put myself in situations where bag grabbing is possible, same as I don't let stupid idiots grab my time on here. Those whom I let around me know not to try such nonsense with me for starts, and I don't walk the Nigerian streets with a "grab my bag" label on my forehead. It's a choice, you see. I can sit with bag grabbers and moan about my bag being grabbed, or move myself so I'm amongst people who regard and respect me enough not to try grabbing my bag. I also don't have to wait "until the 4th or 5th person tries to grab my bags". Once I've "embarrassed" and told the first person not to grab my bag, they'd tell those who follow that my bag is not grabbable. One can let others dictate the situations one finds oneself in and whom one gives one's bag and time to, is the point, as opposed to being at the whim of their grabbing and then repeatedly moaning about one's bag and time being grabbed. Besides, it would be rather odd and silly of me to claim "my body my choice", if my bag and time were subject to the grabbing of others, I'd think. 1 Like

budaatum: I can not be in Nigeria for 3 months and it still takes me aback when I land. There is just a different mentality in Nigeria vs. the West for whatever reason. I use a protocol officer and from the time I land to the time I get into my car, I can count the times someone tries to grab a bag and usher me somewhere. And I'm not saying it's nefarious, just aggressive. My friends and I talk about it all the time. My friend went as far as to question whether he thought rotaries could work effectively in Nigeria. And it's not just me. I was in a dealership servicing a car on one trip. The manager came by. He was new to Naij and we were just chatting. He told me how when he first landed, he was aghast that his driver was running lights and speeding and cutting people off. Told him to cut it out. A month later he found himself doing the same thing. And you really can't know a place until you live there. Whenever I travel, the experience on the ground always changes my view of it. And that's just a brief trip. The same is even in Western countries. I didn't realize how much racism was in the UK, until I had a bad experience there on a trip. |
Re: American Politics Thread - 2024 Elections — Biden’s Presidency! by budaatum: 10:43pm On Apr 16 |
ijebosb: I guess that's the problem, and what you do here too. Some stupid brainless idiots troll on a Nigerian forum so you join in trolling with them. I'm not like that myself. I don't, because everyone around me decides to eat poo, join in and eat poo with them. ijebosb:I live in UK, and can say that I have barely experienced racism in UK, and by your own admission of not actually living here and only "just a brief trip", I guess I can say you don't know what you talking about. But that would be rather silly of me since despite me living here and not experiencing racism, that does not mean others haven't. You might not know this, but how one is treated largely depends on oneself. I hold myself in such a way that being racist to is not others preferred treatment of me, just as grabbing my bag or trolling me fails too. I can't possibly have decided some are stupid idiots and then spend my time being stupid idiots with them. That's just way too unhavard for me and my liking, and a complete waste of my time and effort and learning.

ijebosb: If you did believe the above by the way, then the logical conclusion is to not discuss a place with those you've assumed "can't know a place" they've never lived and are ignorant about the place they haven't visited, unless they are paying you to educate them about the place they have not visited, which does not seem to be the case here since they refuse to learn from you who has visited or lived in the place. From my experience, people can live in a place and be completely ignorant about the place, and some can know a lot about places they've never visited. You'd be amazed how many people visit or live in UK and don't understand how simple road markings can have evolved from the 10 Commandments. |

budaatum: Ex. Driving in Lagos. I used to drive in Lagos like I would drive in the US. I would trafficate and wait for someone to give me space to enter. It rarely happened. Finally, my g/f would laugh and told me to let her drive. But she was right, in order to get anywhere driving I had to be more aggressive. If I didn't acclimate to that, I couldn't drive. Sometimes, you have to acclimate to the environment you're in or leave the environment. budaatum: This is a lot. I've spent considerable time in the Uk when me ex was there for for grad school. Stayed near Leicester Sq. You can't possibly believe that racists are only racist to people who don't hold themselves a certain way. Sounds too much like blaming racism on the people who are bearing the brunt of that racism. And are you trying to argue that you can truly know a culture if you haven't experienced it first hand? It's a very Western view that discounts culture. |

budaatum: You are right. I came to this thread to talk to Nigerians who had similar experiences. So, Nigerians who both understood Nigeria and the US. Unfortunately that's not what I found. There are distinct differences between Nigeria and the US culturally and if you haven't been/lived there you probably wouldn't understand. And if one can't acknowledge that, they are letting their pride and ego speak making it even harder to have a discussion and understand the differences. You are right about ignorant people. But I usually don't hang around ignorant people. |

ijebosb: I think you fail to realise that even Nigerians in Nigeria don't have similar experiences, or have similar understanding of their experiences. And I am afraid that the evidence I see does not show that you "usually don't hang around ignorant people", considering the amount of time you spend conversing with ignorant people here. |

budaatum:This is trite. Who says Nigerians experiences are all similar? But most if not all Nigerians understand what it means when someone yells Nepa. There are shared understandings born from living somewhere. budaatum: Am I conversing or bullying them back? I'm online when I'm at my desk working(down time) or getting things done. Don't log into Nairaland on my phone or when I travel. My time offline is valuable. Where would I even meet ignorant people? Not in my circle. |

ijebosb: Yes, Ijebos, I do not only believe that "racists are only racist to people who don't hold themselves a certain way", I know from my vast experience that "racists are only racist to people who don't hold themselves a certain way". But I do not expect you to take my word for it since you can't possibly know how and where I hold myself such that racists move along swiftly. It's after all not like you have lived in my shoes. And note how you've classified with "truly know", as opposed to know. I have never been to the USA, but I don't think even you would claim I know nothing about American culture, though I bet you'd argue the "truly" bit. But if you've concluded I can't truly know the American culture, why, pray tell, would you who truly knows American culture be spending so much time trying to educate an ignorant me who thinks I do know and wouldn't accept what you say? Isn't that similar to repeatedly arguing about calculus with a person who hasn't learnt to count 123 but thinks she does? And what would that say about you who truly knows calculus? (Do note that I am guilty of this too.) Regardless of you living in America, liberal left wing you would still not have the same opinion as a maga American. And you unfortunately can't claim the difference in what you both truly claim to know is because they don't live in the America you live in. Just imagine dump claiming Biden does not truly know American culture or vice versa, and you might see the fallacy of that stance. It's what democracy was designed to resolve by the way. It helps decide which truly known culture gets to rule every 4 years, instead of a fallacious claim to authority of truly knowing. |

ijebosb:The complete experience of Nigeria is not Nepa. And while some are experiencing Nepa in Nigeria, some Nigerians are experiencing uninterrupted electricity and therefore have different understanding of Nepa. The transformer in front of my house in Obanikoro in the 70s would blow and we would be Nepad for 6 or more weeks, yet I still meet people who lived on the Island telling me they never had power cuts at all. Personally, I think they had auto-kick-in generators that we never had, but hey. ijebosb:I don't think you are conversing with them, and I don't see you stooping to the depths they stoop to to bully you if you asked me, but if your time is as valuable as you claim, I think they'd get much less of it because they really are not worth the time you give them, I'd think. And at this point, I'm going to have to ask you to forgive me if I discontinue this conversation, because I need to now divert the use of my time to more valuable things than use it conversing about some irrelevant stupid ignorant maga idiots who lack the ability to reason or converse civilly. |

Perhaps learn from Obrigardo who doesn't bother giving them free education but just accepts they are the stupid magas they are and repeatedly rubs their faces in their maga ignorance. Hopefully they'd learn when Biden trumps them again, though I wouldn't hold my breathe. 1 Like |
