I would 100% support a national towing service.
Too many of you are way too comfortable parking in dangerous spots on our roads.
Them come tow your vehicle go then them fine you add.
why do they act like you’re doing women some favor?? it’s all about principles but for some obvious reasons they think you can’t have these principles without wanting something in return lol.
I can’t believe that we’re in a world where there are Ghanaian refugees and we aren’t scrambling to have our people back home in dignity and safety. I don’t get the lack of urgency.
There are many people who will willingly pay 500-1000 cedis if there was value for that money. There is not one stadium in this country with any seating and added facility that is worth 1000gh per ticket. You don’t just get up and put a price tag where there’s no value.
Funny thing about the whole thing is there would be no pushback if she simply said her friend is looking for this and this job, she has this and this qualifications but she needs immediate help for sustenance as she searches.
Your core principles and values must be arrived at after serious introspection, critical thinking, and research.
You can not flip flop based on how people may perceive you.
If your values happen to majorly align with certain movements, so be it. In the end, you're you.
Nobody is above being dragged. Sometimes the people you share views with will disagree with you, the solution is not to shy away from what you believe. Reading about the history of progressive movements made me understand that infighting and public denunciations are common.
The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced it’s the phrasing of the tweet, the request for an amount that is above minimum pay (implying that you want to live comfortably on other people’s tab) & the way her people are moving that have made it THIS funny.
Scammers dont succeed because victims are stupid. They succeed because they are manipulators who prey on loneliness, trust, and vulnerability. Coupled this with cognitive decline in older people, this woman becomes an easy target.
The shame belongs to the fraudster, not her.
A lot of the comments here are incredibly vile, with narratives like “how can she be so dumb to fall for this?”
Is no one considering that she is an 80-year-old woman who may be experiencing decline in her cognitive function and risk assessment abilities?
This is what hell looks like — being forced to pack your entire life into bags, piling it on a car, & running again & again. Constant displacement, no rest, no home, no safety — only to realize you’re running with nowhere left to run...
