Exactly, for example I never see Sudanis get this same level of hate. There will always be people who would hate us for being black and Muslim but that’s not an explanation for all of the hate we receive. Some Somalis committing crime and abusing welfare benefits also contributed to this hateI always thought black and Muslim was a cope out answer . Plenty of black Muslims and they don’t get hated on

Sudanese have various looks so they can blend in, there isn't a lot of Sudanis in the west.Exactly, for example I never see Sudanis get this same level of hate.

We were getting hate long before Barkhad Abdi became popularShow me a Sudanese Barkhad Abdi and there you'll have your answer.
The hate was only limited to the uk, outside of the uk barely anyone knew us other than black hawk down film but at least the actors looked decent.We were getting hate long before Barkhad Abdi became popular

That’s true us being easily recognizable definitely contributes to this. But we can’t deny that there were a large amount of Somali families living in government housing who abused the welfare system. Poor people who rely on government handouts always receive hate. We can’t blend in with other ethnicities like the way other black Muslims can so we can’t hide from the hateSudanese have various looks so they can blend in, there isn't a lot of Sudanis in the west.
I agree and the twitter user that made this post was BritishThe hate was only limited to the uk, outside of the uk barely anyone knew us other than black hawk down film but at least the actors looked decent.
I do not think that there are many Sudanese in the West. The number of Sudanese in the Middle East alone is equal to the number of Somalis in the entire diaspora, or exceeds it.Exactly, for example I never see Sudanis get this same level of hate.

In the US our hate came from Ilhan Omar and Trump fighting each other. Ever since then all of Trump’s racists followers started to attack us. But in the UK and other parts of Europe the hate started much earlierI think the hate is recent. Since Ilhan Omar started trending them cadaans have been too fixated on us.
Bro it’s school everyone gets teased. When people tease you, you fight back. It’s apart of growing upIt's because of Barkhad we're associated with subhumans, he also made countless Somali children's lives growing up unnecessarily hard no thanks to the pirate trope, Barkhad Abdi sold out his own people for less than a years minimum wage of annual pay (30k), it is what it is.
I still to this day can't understand why some Somalis continue to support & defend him.
