I sure there are successful Igbos who work hard and have ambition. But let’s not sit here and say, hard work and ambition are the reasons why Igbos/Africans as a whole are well off and the lack of it is why ADOS are fukked up.

On the flip side, can you say ambition and hard work is a factor for African American tribulations?

Some of the stuff you say and believe is crazy to me.

Whether a Afram is poor, middle or upper class - they work - HARD. Everyday.

In my personal life, my sister is in Tech (Scrum Master I think its called ), my brother is in real estate - as well as the GM plant. My oldest sis - just as hardworking and successful in her own right.

I can go on. In addition, to my own career and biz -- As someone who deals with tenants sometimes for my family business -- I also know the tenants we have work their ass off - Section 8 or not. Poor or not.

It's not about having lack of ambition or lacking hard work.

Your comments also sound like white people saying Black Americans are lazy and don't work hard enough.

In the post you quoted, I literally said “let’s not sit here and say, hard work and ambition are the reasons why Igbos/Africans as a whole are well off, and the lack of it is why ADOS are fukked up”. :dahell:

Of course our issues are not because we don’t “work hard enough”, it’s because of white supremacy and all the things this country has done to us(Slavery; destruction of black economic hubs, redlining, Jim Crow, denial of loans and grants, etc).

personal responsibility means nothing, if not complimented by societal responsibility. (vice versa)

So you’re saying if one were to change the entire context and meaning of what I’m saying, it is Trump like?

:ohhh:

If you think African Americans is synonymous with the West
:unimpressed:

ADOS is centered around black people with their chattel slavery lineage that occurred specifically in the West. In this context, yes, you are aligning AA with the West. Again, this comment is made on a black forum, with a large percentage of American citizens. So in this context, yes, you are speaking to (or against) black people in the West.

Nope

There's a thread on Trump deportations on Sunday... Check it out.

Not just illegals. :mjpls:
Hell, considering the fangs shown in this thread (among others)... and the level of vitriol shown to my people in general across many forms of media I've observed, I can't discount their feelings or perspective. They got a right to feel the way they feel because others sure as hell feel how they feel about us regardless of what we've been or are going through.

Successful black immigrants. Nerd/jock syndrome. Now that boys are 30 and older and their young boy achievements hold no weight in the real world, they are jealous of the black immigrants who got their bread up from the mud.
I live next door to some African immigrants. They tried to steal my cable and refuse to cut their grass. I’m seriously considering reporting them to the HOA..

African immigrants aren’t magical negroes. They are just negroes that can cook good joloff rice..

It's also happening in Asia, my country's social media is full of anti Chinese and anti minorities sentiment, they even use the same talking points as alt right.
is that moreso that china is trying to flex it's muscle in the pacific and it's making people uneasy?
is it all immigration or illegal immigrants?

You can’t claim that I have a victim complex when you literally ran from your country instead of staying to fix it. Plus you have the nerve to sh!t on your own country in your signature. You don’t respect us (ADOS) or them (Nigerians). SMH.
