Kids are starving everywhere. Heck I knew kids who were food insecure at my school. That does not change the fact peoples cities are doing well for themselves. No ones larping.Somali kids go to sleep living like this. Yet diaspora kids living in the west. Larp of their cities being amazing. Your cities aren’t amazing. Nor are your leadership. You langaab. People starve backhome. If US cuts all aid. Millions of Somalis will starve. Imagine larping. Fucking hell
Who me? HSM doesn't even govern where I'm from. I could careless about him tbh. All I said was that a lot of these cities are far better than the 00s and 10s. We still have along way to go but I see the way the Somali people work hard to improve their living standards and I acknowledge it.Stockholm syndrome. When someone does you wrong and yet you defend them. Wouldn’t be surprised if you were an HSM supporter
I do not care if we had small progress. Many countries have been in worser situations than we were. They’ve fared better. Somali politicians are useless. Every single one of them deserves to see the end of the barrelWho me? HSM doesn't even govern where I'm from. I could careless about him tbh.

It's not small progress but big progress. But what bothers me is that the Somali people are so divided we will never see progress at a country level. It is very embarrassing to see how these politicians are sell outs and people will blindly follow them. How many generations of Somalis will be born before we get our act together?I do not care if we had small progress. Many countries have been in worser situations than we were. They’ve fared better.

It is not at all clear to me that the average person in Somalia is better off today than they were in the 00s or 10s. I believe that the average person in Somalia is in fact poorer today than in the past.Who me? HSM doesn't even govern where I'm from. I could careless about him tbh.

Cant really speak for all of Somalia but I can speak for only where my parents are from. And I would have to say that they are doing far better compared to 00s and 10s. More developed, stable and more opportunity to work too. A lot of my family in the recent years due to stability in the region and being left alone were able to escape poverty and create lives for themselves. When I was there in the 10s they were struggling to stay afloat and in a few years the region/their lives have completely changed. The roads weren't paved, no electricity but now they have it all.It is not at all clear to me that the average person in Somalia is better off today than they were in the 00s or 10s.

The improving living standards you are seeing in the large cities is just an effect of population growth. There are many more well off people in an absolute sense but there are probably fewer of them relative to the total population. Somalia is probably getting poorer over time.
UN has been underballing fertility in Somalia compared to the Surveys im noticing. Population growth is probably 4%.It is not at all clear to me that the average person in Somalia is better off today than they were in the 00s or 10s.
