Do you tell people ur Somali

[jusbrowsin]

Moving like larry not a bad idea ngl.

I tell them I’m from Somalia cause I simply don’t have the energy to explain to every white dude I see what the f*ck a puntland is. It’s already bad enough that some of them don’t know what Somalia is I have to tell them I’m from Africas nose.

Yeah can’t lie lowkey these people don’t know Somalia or anything African related especially when I was growing up. Used to get asked if I was Black Canadian the ones that came from America or the Caribbeans.

When anyone asks where I am from I just say Puntland. Honestly it's so embarrassing when people ask me that question I believe we need to rebrand our country asap. Wbu guys?

I told them Somali from puntland state Somalia.

To those of you who seriously say you're from SL instead of Somalia- why?

People assume i'm mixed at first usually.. I always respond with Somalia.

I mean, I feel like a fair bit of ajnabis are familiar with the name + people pushing for succession I assume don't want to be associated with Somalia.

Most people didn't know about Somalis in the 2010s were I live, all I got from some caadans and other Africans was that I wasn't black, thankfully, I was thought about my history and culture from a young age, so I clapped back.

Breaking news , the average foreigner barely knows what somalia is and doesn't know anything about PL . Mentioning your region is a stupid thing that I only expect from Somalilanders , it's quite site that PL folks also do this. In any case SL and PL are somalis, if you want to disassociate from Somalia you are more than welcome claiming to be Ethiopian

The vast majority of landers say they are from Somaliland , they do it to avoid being associated with Somalia's issues. There's even a tendency among landers to get offended if they are called "Somali" which is just our ethnic group

This chap is just a young, edgy, seemingly chronically online fella with little knowledge of his homeland and people. 99% of people from PL say they're from Somalia or simply say, "I'm Somali". Most Isaaqs also don't hesitate to at least state that they're "Somali".

I'm not sure about last one , many Isaaq say they are Somalilander or specify their are from Somaliland.

Here is a question: Why would someone born and bred in London say h(sh)e is from .So when in reality h(sh)e knows nigh to nought about .So, does not speak the language, acts just like the average Brit, is not culturally Somali, is Muslim by association, and everything about one's life is British? Same applies to the Yankees and Canucks. Why? Besides, why not just say you are a Brit, and leave it at that.

They will never see you as one of their own. You will always get asked, "where are you truly from" LMFAO.

they already know about puntland because of ilhan omar. There is no safe place to claim as a somali, they study us from a far like creeps.

just ignore the racists, they don't pay your bills.

 

[novanova]

I feel like people on this platform are desperately trying to make somali self-hate a thing, give it up.

 

[empressjamila]

I'm an acc Djiboutian with no family in Somalia but I just say I'm Somali.

Lol same!

I’m Djiboutian/SL but I just say I’m Somali if anyone asks

 

[Ozark]

Depends, if I'm in the states or some euro country, I just say Minnesota. If I'm in Dubai or a global south country, I just say I'm Somali.

OP, just say you're Somali.
This lad's doing the equivalent of cadaan girls who fake mental illnesses and get into obscure hobbies so they can appear as unique and different."No, no, no, no! Brother. I'm actually from 8.9794° N, 49.6911° E to be exact. See Putland is an autonom-.." fill in the blanks. Fag
