There you go, no problem with having an opinion.
Why doesn't Puntland use the Osmanya script?

Thinking of outsiders is literally what created Somalinimo in it's modern sense. Seeing ajanabis, including fellow Horner ones, encroach on our lands and culture prompted our forefathers to want to unify in response. They sadly went about it in a misguided way like making Xamar the capital and excluding certain clans from top-level politics and things fell apart eventually but yes, Somalis need to learn to look outwards again.
Funny enough, similar societies like that of the saxaba and the Mongols under Temujin understood the importance of this. When you have a tribal people prone to lots of infighting and warfare the best thing to do once you've unified them is to take all that energy they would exhaust on each other and use it to conquer and plunder outsiders hence some of the most massive empires known to man that were forged at alarming rates:
Sadly, we live in the modern world so there'll be no conquering vast swathes of ajanabis for geeljires but we need to take that energy they waste on competing with each other and channel it toward competing with ajanabis indeed.

Somalis don’t deserve to have qabiil anymore.
When a kid uses the internet for wrong things, they get their internet taken away. Somalis continually turn qabiil into qabyaalad.
So they deserve to be stripped of their qabiil.
People still wear our traditional clothes especially in the "mountains".I was at a wedding this afternoon and I must say I was perplexed and saddened by the sheer number of maryooles wearing a khamiis and even a keffiyeh. What's saddest is that I'm half sure some of these saaxiibs think this is genuine Somali dhaqan. And don't know what our awoowoyaal used to actually wear:

I mean at least even show up in the garb of title bearers if you want:
Soomaali dhaqan is dead, niyahow.
A childhood friend of mine just came back from working in the KSA the last few years. The first thing he said was " ASC akhi", I never heard him say that word before. He was also wearing a khaamis lol.

I would be 100% behind farmajo if he was MJ. He’s very politically cunning and ruthless, this nigga is even using kgb style honey traps on political opposition.most of my moral support for farmajo is because of qabiil.

Kkkkk, what does the lands south of Galkacyo produce that benefits national development apart from 30 plus years of chaos?
I would 100% be against such person even if he was my own brother. What good would he be if he can’t even secure one funding for development in PL? It reminds me of how sub clans protest and lobby for MP seats as if that tuug will do anything but collect his salary. It’s all for clan pride and it’s useless
YOU don't make threads on vaccination programs/healthcare programs in PL or bread subsidies. Munaafiq

The Osmanya script was used in the SYL era across Somalia and quite extensively in Puntland before the Kacaan made the switch to Latin
Oh well I dunno, maybe 3 rivers, oil, gas and most of the population is south of Gaalkacyo ?
Yeah but you never see asking for PL money to be spent on unnecessary stuff.
My entire point was that if these people really want to start campaigning for changes to PLs budget, why don’t they start with that.
How did you completely miss the point?
It was also used during the first 3 years of the Kacaan
The SYL newsletters used to be in the Latin script.
The SYL were the ones to recommend the Latin script in 1962. Their recommendation couldn’t pass parliament as it didn’t have support.
Siyaad Barre passed it unanimously when he became dictator and passed it off as his own idea.

Yes, those lands have huge potentials. But unfortunately, no brains down south.
The same can be said for any Somali region.
We produce nothing but the livestock that happens to be walking around our nation.
Every gobol in Somalia is deadweight in one way or another.
the topic was script change. It seems you don't know how to socially manoeuvre and talk about more pertinent issues without accusing other posters of qabyaalad and the like. Don't know if you do this because you think it makes you look intellectual or it makes you feel better than other frequent users of this cesspit
notice how any thread you're involved in becomes roundabout finger pointing and accusations. This thread for example went from a civil discussion to qabiil bashing due to your need to put on a moral cape where it was undue
Go outside. Get a breath of fresh air. Make some friends. Read a book. Get a job. Touch grass.
