Yemeni guy goes to Somaliland and makes a very disrespectful video after his visit.

Also, I'm learning Arabic. I'd say I'm low level conversational. I can understand some native content and I try to improve by watching Arabic YouTube, social media etc. The amount of racism towards Africans is shocking, online Somalis look like angels in comparison. When it comes to Somalia there's deep ignorance on the country and often times attempts to hijack Somali history. This Somali tiktoker who highlighted this yemeni dude does an amazing job but it happened to me as well to bump into clearly false fabricated Arabic language content on Somalia. At the same time in Arabic speaking social media especially north African (including Egypt) there's an obsession with afrocentrism, anti black immigrants sentiment etc
I encourage every Somali to learn Arabic , it really opens your mind
I hate North Africans. Even more than Bedouin Arabs, tbh. I’m working on a Nafri thread soon I better not see the #usuals barking

remember when the yemen civil war started and both yemen and somali refugees me came to somaliland shore, guess which ship turned back, it was the somalis
I remember that day very well. Somali women and children were mistreated just because they came from the south. Do you know how inhumane it is that they reached a point where they even contemplated suicide

 
Arabs don't think of black people as human, and in their category of "black" Somalis squarely fit in.

Do we forget that they were running slave circuits in Libya the moment the "pan-african" government of Gadaffi fell?

Every time a single Somali gets a taste of their vile hatred, at least I take solace in the "Ana arab" camp losing hundreds of indoctrinated brothers and sisters.

Unfortunately this type of thinking is widespread in Somalia to the point I wouldn't be surprised if the yemeni guy who insulted them would be treated better than the average reer Soomaaliya. I really don't understand this vitriol that they have

I don't hate anyone tbh and I don't generalize. I'm particularly baffled though when I hang out on Tunisian and Moroccan social media , they complain about Africans doing crime which is ironic since french , Italian, Spanish jails etc are filled with mostly North Africans

There are a few other places other than SL in the Somali peninsula where a Somali fleeing war would be rejected and Arabs allowed in. You guys love this fence sitting “all Somalis do this”, but that is not the reality when you travel across Somalia. You literally have many interviews where the locals were openly saying that Ethiopians were closer to them than other Somalis. Again, this kind of sentiment is very hard to find amongst other Somalis.

Do you see other Somalis on Israeli tv?

bullshit there are konfur refugees in puntland and they are never treated like this, in the south a lot of somalis were displaced but this only happens in somaliland

Puntland also deported them and they were subjected to all kinds of oppression and rape in Puntland just ask them or search for that Madowweyn guy who he's His sister was raped and killed, and the accused were released.
 
Yemenis are considered to be at the bottom in the Arab community so they come to Somalia thinking their skin colour is going to put them above us it’s really pathetic.
That's true but the average Yemeni tends to have darker skin. A lot of this comes down to the Arab vs non Arab mindset there's a lot of internalized racism even against other Arabs like you said and especially towards non Arabs like Somalis. That’s why things like skin whitening creams are so common there
 
Anyways I'll say this , don't jump on me.
I believe all immigrants should be treated well and with human dignity. Having said this as Somalis we have a clear tier list of immigrants and behavior towards them changes according to nationality.
If this man was Oromo and said this the reaction would be 10X harsher. There are Oromos who get heat without actually doing anything wrong.Arabs in Somalia get preferential treatment compared to Oromos who are pretty much our cousins or other African nationalities. I'n perfectly aware that oromo immigration is different from the smaller yemeni/Syrian but still I sense some ''ana carab '' complex from some people in the way they treat these different communities
