Thousands of likes and retweets and others from the continent agreeing with her take. For some reason, you think the positive tweets are the ones that do the most numbers. Clearly, on that app, there’s an anti American leftist slant and those are the tweets that get the most widespread promotion. If you think someone has to type in the twitter search box “anti-black American comments from the diaspora” than you don’t know how ppl really feel and don’t know the true temperature. I found that tweet by happenstance. Most of these tweets do numbers. That’s their intent.
Statements from pawgs like this would get less push back from both local Ghanaians AND Black Americans AND Caribbeans.Dr.Umars burner has been found.
Truth be told. Now that you brought it up, The pawgs would probably get less push back from the local Ghanaians than black Americans and Caribbeans.

And it was supposed to be against the rules. nikkas can't help themselves
I was told to take advantage of the return home movement. This is how they feel about us?
A question please.
She say's she is a "Socialist/Marxist-Leninist" who lives in England and possibly a extreme feminist who is single, not by choice.
Is that someone to listen to?

There seems to be a lot of tomfoolery under the guise of “returning to your roots”. There seems to be a culture of fraud and finessing and nobody to regulate it. And then in the twittersphere and new media, the narrative gets presented as Neo-American colonialism instead of highlight how tricky and convoluted land rights become in West Africa. Folks are being duped on one side, and the locals out there who are truly getting screwed, aren’t really trying to dialogue with someone they essentially view as a foreign invader. It was doomed from the start, because of a lack of clarity and honesty. Yeah, I remember hearing about JTs ventures in Africa.
I can go on there and find a tweet saying the opposite with a thousand likes too but it wouldn't mean more to you than this one because it.does not confirm something you already believed.Thousands of likes and retweets and others from the continent agreeing with her take.

It's a stupid game you play.
Nothing is clear on apps that cater to your algorithms via viewing history. What is clear is you prefer to think that these kind of people represent Africans the most. That's your fail. You gonna carry that with you. If that's a real person she is the other side of the same coin as you.

Pan Africanism is dead. Solidarity ingroup is also dead by the same logic. All of what you see from twitter is 100% represented and not curated by algorithm

Most of the black ppl from the west who are participating in the return home movement, don’t seem to be passport bro/sis sexpats. Whenever these situations come up where black ppl from the west are getting killed and or finessed, there always seem to be this “well, how were they moving in Africa? Did they come correct?” almost victim blaming tone. There’s always an assumption that it’s either imported colonialism or shades of Liberia where western blacks are trying to establish some caste system. Like, how is the worst ALWAYS assumed of the few black ppl who are still trying to hang on to this idealistic Pan-Africanism, when they fall prey to the wolves out there?
Nothing is dead. Any Black person that wished to can carry on the legacy can. The ones that don't don't have to. They also can't keep trying to toe tag and body bag the shyt. It's relevant to those who have the same values it fostered. Whoever feels differently need not interfere.
This whole thread might be related to homosexuality.
A certain thread starter is into white gay men.

Like literally. The tweets represent at least partly, truer sentiments from the ground/grassroots level, then the perfectly curated idealistic pan-Africanist slant we see on here and other forums. Ppl are pissed and everyday ppl on the continent aren’t really thinking about things from some performative “we’re all one” standpoint. I can’t even fault them. They’re just living their lives. It’s the folks who put the battery in the back of expats and sell them an idea. Those are the ones I fault.
You know there are possibly hundreds of thousands of blk homosexuals in Africa right?
Are your anti africa sentiments related to your sexuality?

I mean, the whole idea was presented with a bow on the package and an “I’m sorry note” from the Ghanaian government. An American who had a mediocre career back here, having more capital and pull then the other non-black groups, is kinda the point. It was presented as a “repatriation, come back to your roots/we’re sorry for selling you off” movement. To now, after the fact have folks look at these populations as westerners who are taking advantage of their pull, is kinda where the problem lies and why many folks here looked at this from jump and were like “I’m good…”.
