Respect Brother! I hope many of our people, especially our youths saw this interview. I does something great to the Kmtyw mind when we realize that we can do ANYTHING totally INDEPENDENT from eureurasiaan ideas, concepts, participation and presence. Great job man! The Brother did a great job as well. He was open minded and made inspiring for his viewers.  These "little" (great actually when understood) things gives hope that we one day will indeed see Abibifahodie.

Gu so is an idiom for to continue. Literally gu 'spill' (as in the case of a liquid) so 'on'. We spill on little by little/small small.

Idioms are different from the sum total of their parts. You have to learn them directly or get them in some kind of context.
