They 100% have better lives in Somalia than in the west.

I noticed that people are happy and mostly carefree over there, whereas people here are stressed about so many different things.

It is hard to believe but it is true!
We have all heard family members who have stayed here for decades say they wish to go home permanently. They are tired of the grind and stress of Western culture and want to be among their own people and country. But the likes of @Exodus would say they’re stupid for thinking that way.

I feel you huno but if i was you i'd go there on a holiday just to scope it. Only two things i dislike about back home, 1. bugs are everywhere especially cockroaches lol and 2. there are too many domestics, they have so much time on their hands ayagay isku mashquulaan.

The lifestyle and opportunity we have in the west is unimaginable. So many people from South America, Africa, and Asia risk their lives everyday to get to the west illegally. Personally I’d rather live back home cause I didn’t grow up here. It’s hard to be happy in a place you weren’t born and raised

Xasiid not even going to warn them of the dangers it may be safe for witches but not for regular people

:dead:


I know, isn't it ironic? Witches like me can easily survive in Mogadhishu, I will put a spell on them, they will confuse their bombs and ak 47 for licking candies and avocado

Don't paint some lovely image of Somalia. There's billions of third worlders willing to switch places with you
I disagree with your statement and I hate to admit that
You are somehow right when it comes to several individuals from developing countries that are content leaving for a first world nation , they are mostly unemploymed graduates or from war torn nation or just economic migrants and there are many who can't read or write that believe money grow on trees and they also believe in qurbaha darbiga hadaad garaacdid lacag baa ka soo baxaya they have that mentality
That's unfortunate and a reality hence many Somalis believe that
But somehow you over exaggerated and made it seem like that people outside North America and Europe are desperate enough to risk their lives
Yes there are many of them
But not the entire population of the continent 1.2 billion Africans are still living in Africa
There are developing countries pushing forward despite the abject poverty

ZA maybe trillion times developed than my birth country I rather stay here than go to West honestly and if I migrate it's either neighbouring countries like Namibia and Lesotho
Somalis are establishing businessess there

Somalia are light years behind the rest of the world there's no hope
I've left there 16 years ago , I've dreamt about returning one day but it may take another decade unfortunately

I never dreamt going outside Africa sxb
So f*ck Europe and North America I don't want to live in a refrigerator and become miserable even if I have the resources to travel there

Sounds lazy to move from poor western lifestyle to high Somali living standards. Instead of moving up in the West society. Living a high Western lifestyle is the peak for many in the world

Somalia isn't a place I'll live my life currently. Maybe in the future. Who knows

The West is a miserable place walaal. All the cadaans here are on antidepressants for a reason. Meanwhile us immigrants have to struggle to get into the middle class and even then you’ll always be considered a foreigner even when you were born here.

People outside the West have no idea how terrible it really is. I can’t believe they drown themselves on boats and migrate thousands of miles just to be here. Our only purpose is to work and support the aging cadaan population. It’s all a scam.

With Trump being in power it makes it even worse
There's also alot of racism and hatred towards people both black and muslim, since Ilhan was elected as congresswoman , the media have highlighted negatively about Somalis
Cadaans are genocidal and gun lovers
After seeing how black people are being targeted I've lost complete desire to travel there
It's actually sad that there are many who still risk their lives to go there
Europe are likely to follow the footsteps of their cousin
If you are born there and a third generation you'd still be in the immigrant category unfortunately
Despite what the papers says you are a Somali in their eyes

How often are mental illnesses and depression among these folks there's always shootings Not gang shootings but angry cadaan shooting schools

Although I'm not knowledgeable enough about the Americans there are articulate and integrated Somalis who have had contributed to the economy and they pay taxes but they have to make ends meet all the time , despite their middle income they are lagged behind and stuck in the constant loop they're lucky if they are not in debts , I don't know if it's actually accurate based on what I saw on movies and documentaries if they charge you with fines , speeding tickets , late rental payment and many things that are retarded as miniscule to your reputation can incriminate you and incarcerated
Imagine not being indebted and going to jail for it
Maybe it's one state or their system are target unfortunate individuals


Not an ideal place to live indeed , that can shorten your lifespan real quick wlahi

Yes it's a ruthless society here. If you don't make it, you can easily find yourself trapped in poverty or the criminal justice system. Somalis rely on each other and open businesses and have a good work ethic. That's how we manage to stay afloat here. But for cadaans and African Americans, those are the ones you mostly see standing out on the street homeless. Their families don't support them through a financial crisis or drug addiction. I feel bad for African Americans. They didn't ask to be brought here and seem to be stuck in endless poverty and discrimination.

Of course back home.

Here you have to think of how you going to pay the bills .... your manager pulling your string's, not enough time with family, so many people have mental problems cause of this.

Back home , it's carefree, they live off us.

Life in Somalia is much more precarious. Those guys do not have health insurance, no unemployment insurance, get paid very low wages, have practically no disposable income, have to deal with political instability/terrorism/warlords. Only benefit they have over the West is the social aspect (more of a community vibe) and the weather, but IMO that does not make up for all those other risks.
