Liberia

[VitaMan]

This is the African country slaves freed after the Civil War went to, to start a new life.
What has happened ?


For more than 100 years, the freed slaves from America enslaved the local population and set up plantation systems.



Civil war after civil war since then..


Now 50% of the population is illiterate. 80% unemployment.


What can you say about this ?

If true not surprising.

Bad things happen when you don't do the right thing. But it sounds like Chicago or any other Liberal ran city.

No cite or link. "Statements of fact" that I have no clue if true or not other than than Liberia is a nation where former US slaves went to.

Troll tread. Curious, do have another handle that was banned?

I've done some research on Liberia's history in the past when theres a news blip about liberia. I have never come across any reference of negro liberians enslaving the local and non-liberian population.

what I have found is that this country had cycles of democracy and then tyranny by varying groups vying for power which turn into a dictatorship which then slid into a series of civil wars.

now it is possible that they were "enslaving" african negroes during periods of civil wars. I did see a reference about child soldiers during their civil wars.

the civil wars have ended and they are pretty much behaving like a good democracy should behave.

So it's pretty much like the rest of Africa.

No I don't. Why do you ask ? Why do you state this is a troll tread....trolling who ?
Don't make ridiculous statements like these. It makes it sound like you are trolling yourself.
You do follow me around. It's probably in your best interests to stop doing that.


It's easy to clue yourself in, if you take the time to study history.

VM - if you wish to make argument statements - please verify your facts with citations of reference.
G - made good points - IMHO!

Even if we stipulate to your "points" what is the REAL message you are trying make here? It wouldn't be that black people are not capable of governing themselves would it? If that is your "point" then don't be a pussy, just come out and say it.

Of course I don't want to be accused of putting words into your mouth, so if that is not your "point" then pray tell what exactly IS your point?

For the record,I will stipulate that Liberia is undeniably a "shit hole" country, just like Trump said it was.

The reason I posted this is I watched several hour documentaries on Liberia.
You can do the same if you find this an interesting topic.


There is no SECRET message. You have taken your own thoughts, and tried to imply I also have the same thoughts. Implied thoughts can be worse than trying to put words in someones mouth.

I suppose I could have just posted links with no verbage at all, like others do.

Would you prefer that ?

[Strokey_McDingDong]

I think black people are capable of governing themselves. I think black people are capable of doing whatever they set their mind to. There are plenty examples of black people being smart and successful. My physics professor was black and from Africa. But, for some reason, it seems that many are suffering. Why? I don't know. I don't think it's white people's fault, which seems to be a common narrative, but it would be interesting to hear what others have to say.

No it sounds a lot more like the south east, and what is the south east?? Oh that's right deep red and very conservative.

[oeb11]

RED - just like the cross on your flag
and DPST marxist idiotology.

This is a good article on how the repatriated slaves from North America instituted their own form of servitude upon the inferior “Bush” people of Africa.
