People need to understand this: these billionaire tech bros teach their children Montessori and Waldorf methods which focuses on teaching kids the ability to focus for long periods, think critically, and be creative, while they push attention-destroying short form videos and AI onto the masses and pretend it’s for the good of humanity.
They understand that your ability to focus and be creative is the main factor of success in the future, yet design apps that degrade those crucial life skills. The average person must be aware of this and resist this at all costs.
The whole point of this circus is to ascend. Earth gave you trauma, lust, ego, money, fear, exes, taxes and algorithms, and you still think the mission is to get comfortable? Fam, how many side quests do you need before you clock the main one?
Earth is basically spiritual GTA. Temptation everywhere, random boss fights, people trying to rob your energy, and half the population still thinks the mission is get a mortgage and die politely.
The game is simple. Master yourself, stop getting baited by every impulse, learn what the fuck you are, then ascend. People turned the tutorial into a 70-year side quest.
Imagine reincarnating 12 times just to keep falling for lust, ego, money and people’s opinions. Brother, complete the fucking level.
You got dropped into a body with desires, fear, trauma, hormones, ego and free will, then surrounded by distractions 24/7. And people still can’t work out there might be a test going on. Comedy.
Life keeps sending the same lesson wearing different faces and people keep calling it bad luck. Fam, at some point you’ve gotta pass the fucking exam.
The wildest part is people think the goal is comfort. Nothing about this place looks designed for comfort. It looks like a spiritual obstacle course
You came here naked, leave with nothing, and somehow people think the whole point was collecting shit in between. Mad
'Expats' And The New Scramble for African Cities
A new scramble for African cities is happening. Driven by foreign salaries, strong currencies, and short-term rentals, desirable neighborhoods across the continent are pricing out the locals who live and work there.
Drawing parallels between historical colonial spatial segregation and present-day economic dynamics, we examine how parallel expat economies operate and highlight the need for housing policies that protect local communities.
Reminds me of Joseph Stalin, the Russian dictator who once came to a Politburo meeting holding a chicken in his hand. During the meeting, he began plucking its feathers one by one. The helpless chicken cried out in pain, but he continued until every feather had been removed.
When the chicken was completely naked, Stalin let it go. He then took out some chicken feed from his pocket and began to feed the chicken from his palm. After sometime, Stalin walked away. Surprisingly, the chicken followed him wherever he went. And even when he sat down, the chicken quietly climbed onto his lap and sat there.
Stalin then explained to his surprised Party members; "This chicken represents the people. You must torture them, brutalize them, and take everything away from them. Then when you give them a little, just peanuts, they will treat you like a hero and worship you."
You never came from Jews..
You're never a lost sheep of Israel..
You're not a descendant of Abraham..
Your holy land is not Israel or Mecca
You're an African, and Africa is your holy land.
No animal on earth knows what a Monday is.
No plant. No ocean. No nervous system in nature. The week doesn’t exist. You’ve been exhausted by something that was never real.
Marriage used to be the starting point.
Two people would come together with almost nothing to their name, but each other, and then they would build everything side by side. This process of building led to bonding, it built loyalty, it required tremendous sacrifice and most of all it taught interdependence. But now we are told the opposite. We are told instead that we need to have it all before we marry.
We need a good career, a home, a bunch of money in the bank, your entire identity discovered and solidified, a passport filled with stamps, a degree and much dating experience.
The problem with this is that by the time two people finally decide to join one another, well they have spent most of their lives learning how to do life alone.
So it is not wonder then that building a life with someone else, suddenly feels so much harder. Marriage used to be a beginning, not it is an after thought to an already built life.
Two already self-sufficient and self-reliant people do not easily merge and mesh. It is hard to go from the perspective of “mine”, to “ours”, when individualism is all we have ever known.
And this is why individualism has become the death of marriage.
Life is fucking electric bro. Don’t fall for the doomer shit. Thats for losers and normies scared of their own shadows. Walk around like God sent you and smile at everyone you see. Spread light and abundance. Build things and take chances. This is the best time in history!
in your 20s as african man. atleast do yourself the favour of seeing what you look like with long hair. dreads or braids or whatever. don’t die being on low cut all your life bc of african standards.
