"Somalis Had To Fight Just To Be Normal"

I feel like Somalis in the UK are entering a new stage similar to Somalis in Toronto in the early 2000s. Back then Somalis used to be picked on in the streets, schools and even online. Somalis would open businesses everywhere and establish masjids. We used to work as a collective and thrive together. The Caribbeans didn't like our culture, they disliked us because we looked better than them and were jealous because we had a sense of community unlike them. Thus, they began to bully us until we fought back and showed them a different kind of violence because we just experienced the civil war so this street shit was nothing to us and that's when the blacks left us alone in peace and started to respected us because we put fear in them after severely karbashing them.

The Somalis in London are entering a similar stage. Give it a decade until the blacks start respecting you, fearing you and will even beg to be your friend. That's how it feels like in Toronto. I pray all Somalis living in the diaspora to do well and not give up hope to our homeland.
I don’t ever think I’ve seen Somalis bullied in the early 2000s by then Somalis were bullying people.

Nope things are just a lot different here. Ethnic groups in gangs tend to stick to their own while having some mix. Kinda segregated.

Contrary to what you'll read on sspot back in the day Somalis were known for being extremely violent when retaliating against madows and started carving out gangs in their areas (inner and greater London). Folks back then were a bunch of xoolo. That's when the hate really began growing so the animosity grew and because they created street culture here it quickly turned against us which traumatized those trying to fit in like @sigmund kkkkk I heard she still has PTSD from being insulted because of her dark skin:mjlaugh:

Same shit happened to the Pakis who would discriminate against them. Somalis generally didn't do anything unless they were in the area though this usually lead to deaths when it did happen. Albanians slaughter them like cattle though, bit weird to watch because they can't really do anything about it.

we have tonnes of masjids and businesses but they mainly cater to Somalis. Don't follow @Gambar advice of walking up to random people, that usually ends in a stabbing if you're in another gang or look like it.

You were barely able to tie your shoes in the early 2000s. As someone that was cognizant, Somalis in Toronto were not bullied by other madows (and using the UK as a comparison is a misfit). The only constant with Somalis is they do not fight fair and attacking one is like attacking all of them. The only thing that has occurred in that span of time is an increase in the proportion of certain crimes committed. There was at one time a code of conduct of those involved in the street life but this is no longer abided by. Their contemporaries have less street sharaf. Hence, why what used to be contained between rival groups has started to spillover to the public. There has been a rise in victims that are civilians with zero criminal history and lives shattered which were on an upward trajectory (some of which are Somali).

It's not a win by any means. At least back then Somalis were low-key. What we have currently is more exhibitionism and a boisterous Somali presence be it on or offline. :holeup:You'd never catch me or @Gambar writing Farax hating manifestos on Hi-5 or Myspace.

I can assure you Somalis were picked by blacks maybe not bullied but blacks were extremely xenophobic and would always cause problems. I've spoken to many Somalis who were teenagers during the 2000s and they've had crazy experiences in schools, parks and streets with Afro-Caribbeans but that all changed when Somalis fought back. That's why today there is no ethnic tensions but in the early 2000s there were ethnic tensions and it was bloody. You may not consider it a win but today Somalis are feared and respected in Toronto.

I was a teenager back then, Somalis started to form their own gangs and turfs. I think it died down by the early-mid 00s. They used to try to bully Somalis but they didn’t realize that Somalis defend their own and are in packs like wolves.
