In fact once that criminal enterprise is no longer in existance the better off I would be to be quite frank. I would be better off living in Cuba, Africa,etc. where I know for a damned fact I have more and real rights than anything I could ever be offered in this no good despicable toxic filthy waistland called the "United Snakes of Conradictions".

  • @adafoe7350
    @adafoe7350 Před rokem

    As a Ghanaian and African, what I hear from this and see from the black people coming to Ghana and Across Africa. Is a repetition of Liberia and Sierra Leone, are white narcissist, carpetbaggers, exceptionalist settler colonialist in black skins, coming to Africa to colonise a space and a territory for themselves, just like the white colonialist and black colonialist did across Africa, including Liberia and Sierra Leone. Colonisation and chattel slavery were the same kind of violence in different places. About 4 million Africans arrived in the Americas as slaves with a fraction in the US, the majority arrived in Brazil. And about 5000 were lynched to death in the US. but in Africa the whole continent was enslaved and in Congo alone 15 million were worked, lynched and butchered to death. And since 1996 8 million Congolese have also been murdered due to US special operations to secure the natural resources for western multinational companies. My issue with black people (black American and Black British especially), is they come with the same exceptionalist European mentality, behaviour, mannerism, outlook and socialisation. They think and feel their experience is superior to all others and Africans should be subordinated to their narrative, that is no different to the white settler colonialist, we distribute Dr. Robin DiAngelo book and lecture on White Fragility and educate Africans to understand that if they substitute white people in that book and lecture for black people and substitute black people for Africans, we get the exact same result. Black people are victims at home in the US and perpetrators of imperialism and violence abroad, so from the African perspective black people are no different from white people. Black people have always fought shoulder to shoulder with whites to kill other brown a black people for American corporations. Barack Obama and Susan Rice organised and orchestrated the invasion of Libya, expanded AFRICOM to hold Africa under military occupation and half of the soldiers in AFRICOM bases across Africa are black people. So as an African listening to black people about their oppression by the people they stand shoulder to shoulder to keep us under military occupation, invade our countries at will and assassinate our leaders and population at will. I can't help to wonder what hypocrites and double propaganda talkers the same as their white country men. To me its seems African lives are the meal ticket and career pathways for black people, a way to demonstrate their country men to get congressional medals of honour, purple hearts and entry into white spaces. From Collin Powell to Susan Rice, Barack Obama, Lloyd J. Austin III and Linda Thomas-Greenfield black people have been the foot soldiers of perpetrating violent imperialism on Africa and they dare to double talk their hypocrisy, by claiming to be victims and needed to come to Africa. No we don't need Franz Fanon's Black Skin, White Mask as trojan horses and another imperialist, settler colonial and enslavers in our midst. We are no longer local illiterate tribes, we know and understand who black people are (Americans in every being of their nature) and we don't want them here. We would fight all imperialist black, white, Yellow and collaborators within our tribes. We know our elites perpetrating pan Africanism and the right of return of black people on us Africans are functional illiterate collaborators. Because the only attitude of black people towards Africans is the same as their white countrymen towards us, EXCEPTIONALISM AND SUPERIORITY OF THEIR HISTORICAL NARRATIVE TOWARDS OUR HISTORICAL NARRATIVE, TRIBAL IDENTITY, TRIBAL HOMELANDS AND OUR ANCESTORS. WE ARE NOT THE SAME PEOPLE, BLACK PEOPLE ARE AMERICANS IN EVERY BEING OF THEIR NATURE, REASONING, VALUES, CELEBRATIONS, SOCAIL STRUCTURES, CULTURAL POINTS OF REFERENCE AND SOCIALISATION, PRATICALLY IDENTICAL TO WHITE AMERICANS. THIS IS EVIDENT IN ALL THE BLACK PEOPLE CLAIMING TO COMING TO THE MOTHERLAND, THEIR CHARACTERISTICS, VALUES, BEHAVIOURS, REASONING, NARCISSICISM AND ENTITLEMENT MENTALITY IS NO DEFFENT TO THE WHITE SETTLER COLONIALIST AND BLACK ETTLER COLONIALIST OF LIBERIA. THEY ARE ALL AGENTS OF THE US STATE DEPARTMENT, BECAUSE THEY ARE AMERICANS IN THE PROJECT FOR THE RECOLONIZATION OF AFRICA OUR TRIBAL HOMELAND, LIKE THEY DID WITH THE AMERICAN COLONISATION SOCIETY IN THE FIRST YEAR OF RETURN IN LIBERIA AND NOTHING ELSE. US imperialist, invasions, assassinations and military destabilization in Africa today are run by enthusiastic black people from the top of the Pentagon and the UN to the boots on the ground operatives are full of enthusiastic black people, happy to kill Africans, invade African countries and destabilize African countries for the benefit of corporate America, because they are Americans first and in every nature of their being. Black people are first class hypocricrites claiming to be victims of their country men they stand shoulder to shoulder in killing us for corporate America. From WWI to Libya black people have killed and put their lives on the line for the white countrymen, the only black people who fought and died to defend their fellow Africa are black CUBANS, so they are the only black people welcomed in Africa into our tribal homelands as our kinsfolk, because they have proven themselves as our kinsfolks by standing with us and shedding their blood in our defence. From every horizon, our military, colonial, imperialist, economic and cultural existential threat is full of black foot soldiers, diplomats, politicians and academics standing shoulder to shoulder with their white country men in their determination to recolonise us and genocide us off our tribal and ancestral lands. Black people are the forefront Trojan horses, in their enthusiastic psych-op roles of belonging in collaboration with our treacherous elites.

      With you having listened to this particular post I hope that means you understand that black Americans are no more a monolith than black Africans. These are obviously 2 people who are representative of those who would not only agree with most of what you say, but are of a completely different mindset, believe in Pan Africanism both on the continent and in the Diaspora and would work to dismantle all that oppresses us collectively. We are out here, looking for those such as yourself, please don't stop looking for us too.
