“We all have problems and choose how to deal with them differently. Unemployment, suffering, problems, or poverty don’t justify why one should commit crimes, break the law, or engage in illegal activities. There will never be justice if we keep justifying crime or justifying why criminals do crime because everyone has a reason why they do what they do.”
De philosopher DJ Kyos

“Some black people lie to black people, humiliate and undermine them, mock and disrespect them, steal from and exploit them, sabotage and control them, abuse and oppress them. They don’t see themselves as equal to black people. But when they get caught and have to answer for their crimes, suddenly they claim they are being targeted because they are Black. They appeal to the very black poor and suffering people they betrayed for support. They were benefiting alone, but now want others to struggle and defend them for crimes they committed alone. They play the victim to mobilize support instead of facing the consequences of their actions.”
De philosopher DJ Kyos

“Certain leaders and politicians intentionally maintain conditions of poverty and hardship to secure their own power. Instead of implementing lasting solutions, they exploit people’s struggles by offering temporary relief such as food parcels in exchange for votes and loyalty. This cycle of dependency prevents meaningful progress and keeps communities trapped. They deliberately engineer poverty to keep people poor, unskilled, and uneducated.”
De philosopher DJ Kyos

“African presidents and governments have failed to take care of their own people. They have failed to create opportunities, empower citizens, and provide sufficient jobs. They have also failed to uplift and support the youth, reduce poverty, combat crime, and develop critical infrastructure. In many countries, service delivery remains poor, while the healthcare and education systems are in a troubling state. Millions of people continue to struggle and suffer, living in poverty within their own countries. When you say we should open borders, how can governments effectively take care of people from other countries when they have not yet managed to care for their own citizens adequately? Open borders are going to lead to higher levels of poverty, corruption, crime, and further strain on already dysfunctional systems.”
De philosopher DJ Kyos
