America Is Embarrassing

Post by Murax »

I’ve always defended, and still do to an extent how America is a land of opportunity. Not too many scenarios in the world where you have a former Dadaab refugee dweller lady, be a congresswoman cussing out a cadaan President.


That being said why do we still have frigging 1950s type scenes going on, but not in Scandinavia, France, UK, even the nations US snubs their nose at such as China, Russia etc.

America is reverting to its white ethnocentric core. They are lashing back trying to regain their alleged lost privileges. It’s going to get a lot worse when he wins a second term and uses the courts to demolish the civil rights gains and protections since the 1960s: affirmative action, equal opportunity, etc

The land of opportunity for nonwhites will cease to exist. You will see if the white majority has truly changed its ways once the restraints are dismantled

America has a very serious racial problem. America has institutional racist police force and justice system. If you black or minority you will mostly never be treated fairly. America also has a TV radio and social network media that keep pushing for race work. American democracy is killing of innocent African women and men around the world.

You know whats sad? This runs counter to the conventional thought of every minority which is: Live as close as possible to White Folks, stay far away from Black Folks. So you're saying this prevalent thinking of minorities is suicide?!

No it isn’t. I am suspicious of being one of the sole black folk in certain areas. You will always viewed with suspicion and harassed. If it wasn’t for that sweet scholarship I wouldnt have gone to the 98% white school. I lucked out cause I had an accent and wasn’t threatening once they recognized I was a foreign student

White folks have their militias and guns. Black folk don’t. The only folks who are armed and ready to fight are our local street entrepreneurs and pharmacists. Leroy and his boys are the only group who can confront Al Cracker and his militia.

No thanks. America was on my bucket list of visits, but seeing how Trump fucked up the country, and essentially reverting back to 60's, I will take my hard earned cash to Canada inshallah :eat: :dj:

Leaving and starting from zero isn't a practical approach for the majority.

I think it's time Somalis should head Abdiwahab's advice:


Images or videos like the above viewed by millions of cadaans doesn't bode well for minorities.
