Comments by "" (@orboakin8074) on "Chinese immigrant rips 'woke' left: 'I am not going anywhere'" video.

As a Nigerian-immigrant currently working and schooling in North America, I support this woman. Since I have been here, the majority of racism I have experienced has come mainly from leftists who insult me for my Christian faith, not embracing black victimhood and not hating America. I have come to one conclusion: Social Justice, wokeness and progressivism can ONLY exist in a developed, liberal and first-world nation/region where there are very few existential threats and where the purposeless masses in urban areas have to create some form of ideology to fill the void in their lives. That is why it makes no sense and destroys that society.

@Profmorphious123 i notice you don't mention a thing about how China exploits Africa and it's people currently but somehow only conservatives and western nations are bad. I also notice how your comment just ignores the culpability and actual failings of corrupt African governments and just passes the bulk of responsibility onto western nations. yeah, pardon me if i am not taking what you typed seriously.

@ArnoldTeras You are right. From the history I have read, it was not always like this. African-Americans (Black Americans) were very conservative (socially and economically) and their demographic had far less issues unlike today and they were even rising in prominence until the 70s, 80s and onwards.

@ArnoldTeras Good points all around. I think the main reason is simply down to the level of privilege American society has. Compared to many places on earth, it is so much better and stable to the point where American youth tend to get complacent and have never faced real struggles in life. heck, I see many Americans actively trying to repel their 2nd amendment and it shocks me as a Nigerian because I can honestly tell you that if we in Nigeria had a fraction of these same gun rights and the right to defend ourselves, there would be less insecurity and loss of life in my country with all the insecurity from terrorists, secessionists, kidnappers, bandits etc. A church was recently shot up by terrorists and 5o people died and their attackers got away. Our own police and army are corrupt and inefficient and arrest citizens who defend themselves with legally bought guns rather than stop those attacking us.
