Let’s move on to your second video, you damned cretin. (I’m angry because it’s 4 am and this is what I’m doing - I’m trying to give you the benefit of the goddamn doubt and it’s becoming increasingly evident that I’m wasting my time. Forgive the vitriol in my voice, but I’m genuinely furious at myself for combing through your bullshit.)
Oh, it’s Arise News again! Oh joy.
Mali and Burkino Faso have distanced themselves from an ECOWAS resolution to pursue military action against the Niger republic’s “new” military rulers if they fail to restore constitutional order after a 7-day deadline. Seems reasonable.
Dr. Victor Okhai joins to talk about the issue.
Everyone’s happy to have him.
Arise news says a bunch of people gathered for a mass rally (thanks Arise, would have appreciated footage, but I guess your green screen of random faces behind your hosts is more important - tim_and_eric_great_job.avi)
Okhai starts his response. Apparently the president, Bazoum, said “No, don’t go after the terrorists”, because the French told him not to. Oh man, the French love terrorists y’all. They just want a weak Africa. Thanks, Okhai.
“So, it therefore means that quite a few of the democratically elected presidents are propped up by Western powers; not in the interest of the people, but the interests of their masters” “The people say enough is enough”
Motherfucker who? WHO? Who is fucking saying this?
“They just want the Uranium”
“When the coup took place, why did the people not protest? They were rejoicing!”
“What happens when the administration continues to impose themselves upon the people, using the military to quell rebellion?”
Motherfucker, who instituted the coup? If you think the democratic election was flawed, make goddamn points that prove your assertions. They literally just said “yeah, fuck these people” and attacked them.
And, no, I’m not defending France - or their “love for Uranium”, here. I’m repeating my initial request: show me anything that purports the democratically elected leader of Niger was anything but. Fucking anything, you damned shit heels.
It’s 4:10 goddamn am. I need to be in bed.
Let’s continue…
Ol’ Okhai waves his hands and says “and you know elections and they were manipulated and things like that”… cool, thanks man. No, really, thanks. Also, my mother is a unicorn and my father was a rainbow and I’m a goddamn Lucky Charm. Words exist, they have no meaning, and I can use them to murder people. Great job, you fucking cretin.
Then the hosts go on to say that the “people are waving Russian flags” and that “they believe the Wagner group would be better fighters of (Boko Haram and other insurgents)(…)”
…are you fucking kidding me? Like, it’s literally 3 people pretending to have a debate, telling us how “the people” love Russia and want Russia to help them because… what? Bad elections?
Motherfucker, point me to the goddamn ballot boxes and tell me why you think the votes are invalid. It’s not fucking hard. I hate my current leader, but I know he was democratically elected so I live with it - because the majority fucking voted for him.
Holy fucking shit.
Goddamn Tankies.
Okay, I’m ending video 2 here because I’m not listening to any more Kremlin propaganda, let’s move on to video 3.
------------ *** ------------
The third video is a Youtube news commentary channel. I’m not being sarcastic when I say: sure.
The opposition party in Nigeria is contesting its election results. Citizens, according to this channel, are accusing the process of technical issues and corruption. The opposition party accuses the victors of “violence, voter intimidation, and suppression.” Serious allegations.
Calls for a new vote are rejected by the independent electoral commission, claiming that the election process was “free. fair, and credible”. Things are heating up.
However, “various observers (including the European Commission) have criticized the election for lack of transparency.” How transparent the election was is left to you, and no assertion is made - almost like this random YouTube channel is delivering actual news, holy shit. A red herring in OP’s response? My god. (Edit 2: Yes, to be clear, this channel is delivering actual news and feels like a breath of fresh air after the last two links, which were clearly propaganda)
The opposition party states they intend to challenge the election results (dn: if it’s legal, go for it my dudes). They then implore people to be calm and wait and see. Seems fucking democratic to me.
Some foreign institutes weigh in with their negative views.
This was back in March. It’s August. Great.
Thanks for the relevant link. I’ll have to fucking dig further into Nigeria’s elections now. Goddamn it you fucking asshole.
Here’s the Wikipedia article. Their suits were dropped, Tinubu wins. Why did I have to watch that video?

TL fucking DR:
OP said nothing
OP means nothing
Fuck me
Fuck my time
This is why I hate Tankies
It’s 4:32 am and time for bed; OP I hate you so much
Good question, those would be self-proclaimed « marxist-leninists » or authcoms, who are actually just red fash and here for the aesthetic of a charismatic leader associated with places that have historically been communist, like russsia or china, despite the obvious fact that they are capitalist oligarchies/autocracies, and despite the fact that these formerly communist countries were never properly socialist to begin with, but state ecomonies led by minority rule instead. In short, lost, terminally online « « leftists » » whose only defense is calling for « unity » and an end to « infighting » as if they were actually a part of the movement to end worker exploitation at all in the first place.
That’s interesting, I do love the English language it’s like an eternal tarantella.
It’s funny to me that the sensible opinions on China are so vanishingly rare - it seems everyone wants a fantasy version weather that be saintly or demonic. They’re the same about America of course, they hold up someone like Tucker Carlson and say everyone in the west is like this or point to Shell poisoning the Niger Delta and pretend it’s the whole story – or they go the other way and act like unchecked capitalism could solve all their problems.

TL fucking DR:
I admire your willingness to engage and respond to vague BS. Keep on keepin on, dude. (also get some rest)
Have my honorary gold star * for wading through that bullshit. Absolute chad.
You keep using the work tankie but last I heard that meant an authoritarian communist, what does it mean now?
