There is a a lot of hostility in Nigeria for us igbo. A lot of it due to the fact that during colonialism, other ethnic groups thought igbo people were treated better..you know how it goes.

A lot of people still hate us from the civil war that took place in 1967 as well.

There’s a lot of history behind it dude

Nigga you should of picked a different mos

Y’all infantry boys got it bad

I did a JFTX as a TAC and the amount of s*** I had to nitpick on was insane

my best friend was born in mexico, got his green card here and is more patriotic than most of the people i know. but when youre spoiled and entitled you dont see what you have

thank you for your service!

people really celebrating this and overlooking how bad this is for nigerian free speech?

Don’t turn this into a “you should be lucky you live in America” thread.

Twitter basically carries this site sometimes

Just for this whenever you become a butter bar I’m not gonna call you sir and I’m gonna report you to my IG for toxic leadership 😂

Free Biafra man

Thanks man but thank me when I get a deployment patch I don’t think I’m worthy of praise yet 😭

nigerian government woat and corrupt as hell

wishing for all my africans to be free from this awful corruption

Nigeria is all f***ed up. Glad I wasn't born there

Nigeria was slaughting Biafran/igbo people and the country that colonized it, England, ain't giving a s*** as long as they get their natural resources. Twitter was being used to garner support and spread awareness

How will they ever know who's cancelled??

Only people that think America in total is so perfect are those that havent been or lived in the worst parts of America

Average person is fine, but the below average always gets swept under the rug & ignored

There are places literally ignored by the government in total from education to water to housing & health lol & people getting forced to move out of homes & work

Tell them their problems arent bad just because they arent getting blown up. Be happy. You get to be swallowed up in the main image of perfect America while being swept under by it with no answers or hope for that image to be your own reality 🙂

This the type of s*** you mad about? They did the right thing 😂😂😂

I love my country o

Twitter may be trash but in some country it's one of the only way people can actually express their opinions

"But Twitter bad huh huuh sjws "

Well said

What they’re ignoring is we banned this because our President’s Tweet was deleted

Our President was censored
He banned the entire platform as a result

People think this is a win. Totalitarianism won

this is the tweet btw

What do you mean by this?

This thread is weird as hell lmao. A government and its peoples who face widespread corruption, poverty, and have a burgeoning terrorist movement in the northern half of the country is being told by Americans to stop complaining.

Gotta be troll posts

Twitter is used by the CIA to manufacture consent via bots and shills, not to mention the trending topics being manipulated, the non-chronological timeline algorithm suppressing certain accounts, non-Western accounts getting named "state media" while the Western accounts don't get touched, as well as the new feature where random mainstream news articles get featured on the sidebar. The less people start using it for politics, the better.

Would have been a good post without the near schizophrenic rantings about the CIA and how Russian and Chinese State Owned media have to be labeled with a tag.

Not to mention the fact that China runs some pretty strong propaganda on Twitter lmao.

Not to mention the consensus on Twitter is normally in contrast with that of the establishment, or at least thats how it perceived.

Not to say the CIA doesn't run propaganda on Twitter but you have literally the most bias posts in these threads lmao.

The labels on Twitter are solely for this purpose
"Labels are for outlets linked to governments of countries on UN Security Council, where state ‘exercises control over editorial content’, social media firm says"
help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/state-affiliated-china

Now if you want to argue for expanding that label to Radio Free or VoA, go ahead.
Otherwise keep the schizo CIA boogeyman talk to yourself
