African Languages And Cultures Need To Be Eliminated Immediately by RickyJesus: 9:51am On Apr 26 |
Black people need to learn how to take pride in things because they are good, not just because they are old. African languages are regressive, primitive and backwards. They serve no purpose but to divide African nations and cause hostility between peoples who are essentially the same. This is 2024 what the hell is the value of a language that doesn't even have a word for yellow, or have any measure of degree or even a vocabulary beyond a 10 year old level? Language is the fabric of thoughts and one who has a primitive, backwards language will have primitive and backwards thoughts. This is why all pointless African tribes on this maps should be eliminated and formed into a few major groups; Lingala, Hausa, Swahili, Amharic, Somali, Arabic, Yoruba and Igbo. The only other language used in Africa should be English. What the hell is so good about these "African cultures and traditions" anyway? Where these not the same cultures and traditions that left us 600 years behind the rest of the world? Wake the hell up and cut away this silly degenerate nonsense. It is only a hindrance to our development. We can start new cultures and new traditions, this trash doesn't have value just because its old. ~ pleep 2 Likes |

RickyJesus: You thoughts are not well developed. I will help you 1. The issue is that African culture is Animistic. Animism is the belief that the world consists of spirits that is why we sometimes attribute everything to witchcraft. 2. There is still some knowledge in African culture. For example the ifa oracle is a mathematical system. Also our ancient herbalists have discovered a lot of useful herbs scientists are working on. 3. You have a point ad we are not a thinking race. If you observe the West thinks for us and we copy them blindly. We seem unable to evol6an ideology of our own. From solar technology to nudity they do all the thinking for us. 4. As per language some science textbooks have been written in yoruba, igbo and other African languages. That deepness of thought will be created when textbooks are written I. AFRICAN languages. 5. There are some deep thoughts in African culture like Arodon which means nothing in yoruba or umodoye which means knowledge turns into understanding. 6. Nice try. Generally we Africans are very shallow minded and lack deep thinkers. We just copy and paste the white man 7. Language is important in understanding history. When you wipe put language you wipe out thousands of years of history. That is a problem. 8. Africas past is full of a lot of useful knowledge if you see beyond the surface. OK what of the great Wall of Benin made by africsns that's technology 7. Nice try but there are better solutions to what u are saying 3 Likes 1 Share |

RickyJesus: Somebody gave you an intelligent reply already but you're saying it is an exception. What exception? Actually, the people you want to eliminate their language/culture need to track you down and offer you as sacrifice to appease the gods. Oh. By the way, I don't even feel inclined to educate you. It is a free world and you can believe whatever you want or call this post a rant also. Enjoy. 2 Likes |

Languages of the majority tribes should be discarded,they are big for nothing |
Re: African Languages And Cultures Need To Be Eliminated Immediately by Bookhub: 2:27pm On Apr 26 |
You can discard Yoruba,Hausa and the rest, but as for we Igbo's we will keep ours forever at all cost. |

I'm learning Japanese RN and some of their words were also drawn from English. Chocolate - Chocolato Lion - Raion Personal Computer - Parsocon Wifi - Waifai Even English also gets it's words from other languages. Also, remember that other languages have "Bodies" keeping their words up-to-date, while most African languages don't. That's why I'll always push indegenous language to be our official languages. And then create "Bodies" to help keep them alive. I'm learning Igbo next and at the same time perfecting my Yoruba after I'm done with Nihongo(Japanese) 3 Likes 1 Share |

Re: African Languages And Cultures Need To Be Eliminated Immediately by davien(m): 3:01pm On Apr 26 |
To be objective, you have a point. There's a language that can't communicate time in, as in there's no 'now', 'yesterday', or 'tomorrow' in and no matter the amount of explanation you give them they don't know what time is, everything done is with respect to verbs, I sit, I eat, I'm satisfied etc. Only some after thorough tutoring understand. But no matter the language you can still understand if given enough references, that's why Africans know things like eclipses, stars, Numbers or even abstract thought because every human being shares the same brain structures, it's why you can speak multiple languages, you can learn anything given enough time. A low IQ person will be low IQ regardless of the language. 1 Like |

Asia has over 2,294 indigenous languages which is more than Africa. They also have a higher population than Africa. Also, Asia was built on traditions and culture for example, China, Japan yet they are progressive and developed. 1 Like |

This is not good thinking at all from OP. A language goes extinct when the last speaker dies. It will interest you to know that languages of the world goes extinct more than imagined. In peaceful times, there has never been any civilisation that coerced or even tried to destroy any other cultures or language. This can only be an African thought, the same you are trying to exonerate yourself from. 1 Like 1 Share |

RickyJesus:what you said is your mind and thoughts but it is just dreams and wishes,you forgot that if wishes are horses beggers will ride,you also fail to note that in the southeast traditional religion is now the fastest growing religion in that region, don't you think there is a reason for that,speak about your own tribe and ethnicity,the igbos are not backwards and we don't need to speak the whiteman language ,the major obstacle to us is the leadership of the country |
Re: African Languages And Cultures Need To Be Eliminated Immediately by Auskeeny(m): 7:44am On Apr 27 |
Africans are too linguistically and ethnically diverse. As we can see in nigeria today does not promote unity or progress. So i think what OP is trying to say is that africans would have been more progressive if we had only few languages. Just imagine if nigeria had only one language and culture, we would not be were we are today. 1 Like |

RickyJesus: Dude, you are correct with your thinking, although I think all african tribes (not only the small ones) should be eliminated - having only major tribes left will lead to major conflicts still. Now, a lot of people are going to foam in the mouth at the thought of this, but just know your proposal is actually a valid step in the right direction for African progress. |
Re: African Languages And Cultures Need To Be Eliminated Immediately by Philosopher1979: 2:41pm On Apr 28 |
Afrobasic: Eliminating african cultures is mental slavery. Neo colonialism, expoilation, inferiority complex and stupid mentality. That's what they tell us anyway. That we are inferior and don't have a history and you are confirming it. They deceived our ancestors with a mirror. In anotherc30 years they will tell us to have sex with animals in the name of lgbtq woke feminism ideology. What is needed is an Afro centric modern ideology and not this copy copy inferiority complex nonsense. The Chinese, Arabs and Indians just adopt they don't copy. I watched a documentary in which a Chinese man made a scientific discovery and he was saying it in Chinese and the Europeans translated it into Englus. We need an Afro-centric philosophy. EMMANCIPATE YOURSELF FROM MENTAL SLAVERY BOB MARLEY SAID SO |
Re: African Languages And Cultures Need To Be Eliminated Immediately by Afrobasic(m): 3:49pm On Apr 28 |
Philosopher1979: @ the emboldened, we are literally saying the same thing. Replace all archaic african tribes with a modern african tribe, that would be inclusive of every one (Nigerian, African or black). Our current setup of multiple tribes (identities) within a small space leads to conflict - case study, Nigeria. These tribes were created at a time where nation states barely existed. Now, in the 21st century, the modern world requires us to evolve our identities to be more inclusive of others, thus I agree with th op... all notion of tribes should dissolved and a bigger and better tribe based on afrocentric ideals should be created to replace it. |
