Your writing style would be marginally less obnoxious if you were
better at Lojban; your Lojban means nothing like what your English
means.  In particular:

"da pe ma'a" is not "one among us" it's "something associated with
one of us", like "the shirt belonging to one of us"

"lamIkal.wAlas." is illegal in two ways: it has w in it, and "la" is
not allowed in cmene[1]

"nitcu cusku" does *not* mean "need to express", let alone "should
express"

"le se du'u" requires a bridi inside, which you did not provide.

"troci jmina" does *not* mean "try to add" in exactly the same way
that "nitcu cusku" does *not* mean "need to express"; you might want
to take a look at "co"

"jmina" is agentive, and you didn't give one, which looks very odd.
Joining it to the "pe'i ma'a" sentence with gi'e, which is how the
English is written, would help.

"mi kanke ku'i mi na djuno" is simply wrong; a gi'e would help there
too.
