why does every black activist live in the west

[December]

i was seeing a bunch of tweets from black people talking about the treatment of their workers in lebanon and they also brought up the ukraine traine thing, but then i look at their profiles and they all live in the UK or somewhere in the US or europe, and never in their home countries, its amusing.

Our countries are shit holes. Most left leaning individuals wouldn't want to live in any of those countries.

It’s profitable and even career altering. Africans in Africa don’t care because they’re trying to survive and are more preoccupied with other things.

Because they;re hypocrites, no one cares about black Africans, least of all black africans themselves. They have no pride in their nation and all want to leave. Just look at the FOBs on TikTok and Facebook, all they talk about is tahriib, Group 5, leaving their nation.

Truly a broken people.

its not amusing. Its a fact. They live in the west and have the privilege to speak for the voiceless impoverish Africans who have no time for leisure of opinion exercising. They are busy chasing their daily ugali.

There are activists in Black countries, you are just more aware of the ones in the west because of the language barrier and exposure.

And for those who migrate to the west, they do it for economic reasons and a promise of a better economic situation, it's no different anywhere else, It doesn't mean they dislike their country or they lack pride. You see Somalis back migrate for the same reasons. It doesn't mean they don't stop advocating for their own as soon as they leave their country.

The truly broken are the ones that spend time maligning and forsaking their own.

Our countries are shit holes. Most left leaning individuals wouldn't want to live in any of those countries.

It's like saying Jews or Zionists living in the west advocating for Isreal don't want live in Isreal. Or Palestinians being activists living in America don't want to live in Palestine or Gaza.

I suppose the small Somali population in New York doing political activism for Somalia/Ogaden in the 60s is because they don't want to live in Somalia
