Am I one of the few Somalis who genuinely understands the value of privacy and handling matters discreetly and calmly?

I understand recording someone for evidence , that’s sensible. But what I don’t understand is turning around and uploading that footage to social media instead of taking it directly to the police or filing a formal complaint. That kind of move isn’t about justice , it’s about going viral. And it often backfires.


Even worse, why would you do that when you have serious allegations or a criminal record attached to your name that the public can easily look up? You're not helping the cause , you're dragging it through the mud and bringing unnecessary attention to yourself.


Maybe that guy just has nothing to lose , no sense of privacy, no dignity, no life to protect or maybe he’s just another attention-hungry fool.


But let’s be real, you didn’t fight racism. You tanked your own reputation and gave a racist criminal crackhead a platform and viral fame and now even wealth. All for what? A few likes and outrage clicks? You could’ve just told her off and moved on with your day.


Somalis should learn from this. Value your privacy. Stop chasing attention online. Not everything needs to be a public outcry or a trending hashtag. Handle things quietly, legally, or brush it off. Don’t let clowns and bigots control your mood or your future.

What’s hard to understand? They don’t actually give a f*ck about her they want revenge for karmelo Anthony and all the other examples of blacks defending the garbage in their community.

1m?

Absolutely crazy. For saying ni**er?

Think I'm gonna make my own riwaayad. Get an cadaan girl to do the same thing live on camera, but instead give her a backhand and pretend to kick her whilst she's lying on the floor.

Should be raking in $5m...me and the girl will do a 50/50 split.

not only BLM, all that DEI training and asking cadaans to be less racist as had the opposite effect. We did some intersectionality training at a place I was working and a few of the cadaans felt they were being targeted. And this is liberal UK lol. The intersectionality/BLM brought race to the fore , so you know have cadaans playing their own identity politics.

as for the story, feel sorry for the kid. f*ck his dad if he’s a nonse.

How did he do that? The average person dislikes the white woman for what she did, while only racist people funded her because they share the idea that one can bully autistic black kids. Her getting crowdfunded doesn't reflect anything more than people like her wanting to express their deep hatred and support their expression of hatred. Catering to that or cowering is not reasonable. But the average white person looks at that woman and thinks she is evil. You place more value on the racist people's side, buddy. They don't own you.

I never knew part of being an immigrant was to take shit from racists. I don't remember signing a clause that said that.

And by the way, he filmed for plausible deniability and evidence. These types of White women do the most vile shit and it has happened to me. She even threatened to attempt to call the cops. If he did not have proof, she would cry and start claiming he harassed her. So yh, not only is it good that he filmed. It's nice he put it up because one can tell she would double down the next time she hit the playground among immigrant children.

Even most racist people will look at bullying an autistic kid with slurs as over the top, although I never underestimate the stupidity of these guys and how low they will go.:icon lol:

You can dress this bad take as much as you want, but if you tell Somali kids they're black as a first identity, they will become more black, as in their expression and their values mirror African Americans, more so than Somali. You cannot have this on-and-off switch. By the way, the other stuff about negativity is an obsfuscation. No one here talks about acting negatively and this notion that Somalis universailly is seen as a problem is just bullshit that only lives on the internet. You should touch grass. Somalis get along with other people, be it Africans or whatever, and we find ourselves in cosmopolitan places. Life is not a twitter thread, so spare me the emotional dweeb nonsense. It gets old and repetitive, at least pretend you spent your childhood outside and not on social media bubbles.

To blend in, you have to remove what is Somali, otherwise, people will always pick you out. In that process, you change identity. That is not a reversible thing. By the way, Black is not an ethnicity. The "Black" identity in America is African American ethnic identity, and we can never be that regardless. People from Africa who are not Bantu or West African consider the black thing as most tertiary, and the overwhelming Somalis don't deny it in the streets in a social setting. But that is not an identity but more so solidarity outside our identity, which is nice but not primal to who we are. You have to learn to weigh what this means.

Whoever changes their identity to be less visible and caters to other identities over their own is a self-hater. That is the definition. You can pretend it is practical, but it is what it is. People only f*ck with weak peoples and we're not more vurnerable than others. Stop painting us as weak just because your mind is.

Besides, you're naive if your black flag-waving will have people not distinguish you as soon as negativity comes your way. They will instantly say, "She says she's black, but she is Somalian." That is the reality. I have seen this before. People who want to hate will find reasons, and we look too distinct, and are distinct. That is a fact. People can either like us for what and who we are otherwise they can f*ck off. The far majority of people, and I mean 98% are cool.

If some African homie says, we're black, I say, sure. It's not that deep because it is nothing more than convenient solidarity. It does not mean I am what they are. That does not mean we're one people other than the in-situ thing. At the end of the day, I don't play their cultural flutes, and they have never eaten camel meat. So let's get real and not make it bigger than what it is. We can come together and say we're "black" in ways that are instrumental, constructivist, and pragmatic in the West because there are commonalities in certain social conditions, but we're not the same people.

I've faced racism, and so have other African people. Are we the same people? No. Does that mean we can't work together and recognize that fighting common challenges, banding for those frontier goals, if we face challenges with the dominant cultures of the host countries? Of course not. We can, and that still does not make us one, generally. Perhaps one in that cause, in that goal, in that moment. But that itself does not define my ethnic identity. Any people that does not respect you until you assimilate with them do not respect you at all. That is why I don't rock with pan-Africanism.

Does that make me less African or hostile to other cultures? f*ck no. I probably have the most African and the most diverse friends in this forum. People on this forum who have this conversation are extremely one-track-minded. Any conversation about identity that does not come with nuance is ideology. "Oh, you don't consider yourself black, you must think you're white." I don't have time for that stupidity. I am more closer to a black person than a white person in many things in general, but an African American and a White American are in one cultural group, while I am distinct from both. They're both Western people. I am not. And what makes me closer to an African American than a White American likely has little to do with culture. We're generalizing here, I rock with cool people no matter where they are from.

At the end of the day, I am about values. If some guy is a Western liberal, we have less in common than some other person who shares more values with me. I rock with the latter more. This means if you're a Westernized liberal woman who happens to be Somali, I might rock with anybody but you. Skinfolk are not always kinfolk to me.

Lol. So many Somalis act like black Americans and will scream that they are not black. Everywhere Somalis migrated to in the west, there are Somali gangs… even in Scandinavia where there aren’t many black people.

I didn’t say anything about teaching young kids that they are black first. I didn’t say anything about pan africanism either. That doesn’t even exist in real life. Pan africanism is dead and will never be a real, successful movement.

I said dumb Somalis on the internet brought unwanted and negative attention to our ethnicity when they could’ve just been quiet like Eritreans, Sudanis and Ethiopians. Not everything about our identity needs to be screamed down everyone’s throats. Eritreans view themselves differently to black people but they’re not annoying and loud about it. We didn’t have to loudly isolate ourselves because look at what it has caused.

Somalis online were not smart enough to calmly explain how different Africans are to each other. Instead, they distanced themselves from blackness and trolled everyone and used words like j*reer as a slur. These other people then viewed it as Somalis being self hating or having a superiority complex. All of this just could’ve been completely avoided if Somalis were just quiet and not as visible. Or if the distancing wasn’t done so poorly. If anything this distancing has created more self haters since being Somali is now being associated with self inflicted negative stereotypes because of dumb somali boys online.

Regardless, it’s too late now. We are a fragmented community with no outside support currently being targeted by racist cadaans
