If you had to write a short, concise, and beneficial guideline on how Somalis should act in the West, both offline and online, in order to minimize attracting negative attention to themselves, what would it look like?

Preserve your religion, preserve your language & familial ties, think of your time in the West as a time sand, where you acquire as much knowledge, capital and networks as possible to re-establish elsewhere (a metaphor for this Dunya).

Understand that Somalinimo is activated under specific context (when a relatively small group of Somalis have to work together to ensure success - whether that be at work, community, finance, etc). Thus choose your location in the West wisely and with immense thought (regarding the area you live in, since most of us have no control over our country). Somalinimo turns into crabs in a bucket within the reverse conditions (lots of Somalis who don't need to work together for survival i.e. living off cayr, govt housing and in a cycle of destitution).
 
It's over. The majority of second-generation Somalis in the West are closet Gaals, emulating the worst aspects of society.
