There is a war in Nigeria

Fuck

I talked to a Nigerian guy today who was selling petty objects to raise money to get his ass home
He was saying he came here to escape the war, cause sardinia is one of the closest points in Europe to Africa, but cause the Italians are quite a bit racist (and it doesnt help that the majority of non-white people here are desperately trying to sell things cheaply, either on the streets or beaches or in 'Chinese shops') and because he misses his home he didn't find it good here and all he wanted to do was go home

And he was like,

'there is a war in nigeria'


and I was like, first reaction 'oh shit I'm sorry' and he was like, 'i don't understand what you're saying, what is there to be sorry about'


We can have some problems in our lives, sure, even if they are grave problems like drug addiction or mental health issues and all that sort of shit but fuck, those sort of things are entirely out of the fucking scope

Fuck

Completely out of scale
We are so fucking lucky to not have to try to escape our own home

...Anyone want a little silver shoe that fits on a keyring? He wouldn't let me just give him a donation
