This is not a highly educated middle-class professional, this is a man from a village in Zimbabwe, yet the clarity of his views is sharp, driven by thought and empowered by social media, which has allowed people to bypass traditional state propaganda institutions when accessing information. He reminds us...

This what we call a walking and talking Organic Intellectualism. This is commonsensical intellectualism, which is fact and wisdom backed. This Mzee (Respectable Old Man) has just delivered a lecture on Economic History, Slavery and Political Science and bit of International Relations. As such this Mzee didn't go to the University but the University went through him Power to this Mzee 💪💪💪

I am afraid this old man may be abducted by ED thugs and tortured, if not killed. ED thugs specialise in abducting opponents, black African people. But to this man death or life in Zimbabwe is the same. Economic catastrophe @ProfJNMoyo

How effective is propaganda directed at as smart a people as the average Zimbabwean? There appears to be 3 broad groups: - the compliant that parrots propaganda without question - the vocal minority that speak their mind - the objective silent majority that watches and listens

Imagine if this man were the president of Zimbabwe, wielding all the powers that come with Zimbabwe’s dictatorship. Imagine if he led ZANUPF and governed a country without strong institutions capable of protecting citizens from the abuse of power. Imagine if he had the same power that Emmerson Mnangagwa has to send police officers to arrest journalists simply for reporting the truth. How many journalists in America would be in prison today because they reported facts he did not like and he dismissed them as fake news? When I watched this video, I was reminded of the beauty of a democratic system built on strong institutions. These American journalists would likely be in prison if they were operating in Zimbabwe. Instead, they are protected by strong institutions, a separation of powers, and constitutional safeguards that place limits on what a president can do. A president can be angry. A president can be unreasonable. A president can even be ridiculous. But in a functioning democracy, there are limits to how far that behaviour can go because institutions are stronger than any individual. When Trevor Noah said that Donald Trump is a quintessential African dictator without the powers that African dictators have, he was not far off the mark. He was highlighting an important point. You can see the anger when he feels exposed, but you can also see the frustration of knowing there is very little he can do because the institutions are strong enough to resist political pressure and abuse. This is why Africa must build strong institutions. It is also why dictators fear strong institutions. Independent courts, professional civil services, free media, and accountable law enforcement are the very things that limit presidential power and prevent its abuse. Dictators rarely strengthen institutions because strong institutions constrain them. They stop them from abusing the enormous authority that comes with the presidency. I speak from experience. I have been on the receiving end of a president who was angered by truthful reporting and who used the machinery of the state to throw journalists into prison. That is precisely why strong institutions matter. They are the difference between freedom and fear, between accountability and impunity, and between democracy and dictatorship. I would never understand a Zimbabwean, or an African for that matter, who idolises Donald Trump, given the history that Zimbabweans and Africans have endured under dictatorships and strongman rule. Many Africans have spent decades fighting against leaders who undermine institutions, concentrate power in their own hands, attack the media, and treat criticism as a personal insult. It is therefore difficult to understand why some would celebrate those same traits when they appear elsewhere. Perhaps that is what they call Stockholm syndrome, identifying with and admiring behaviours that have caused so much suffering at home rather than recognising the dangers they represent.

The Vice President gave a sermon. About Lazarus. About a man who died while the Lord waited. About a tomb sealed with a stone. About a question asked not for information, but for witness!!! And the political class is now scrambling to decode what they heard. Let me tell you what they heard. Chiwenga stood before the congregation and asked: when was Lazarus buried? He asked as if he did not know. He asked as if the Lord of all creation needed the crowd to tell him the hour of interment. He asked, he said, so that the people would give their input. So that things would not just happen idly. So that the miracle, when it came, would be witnessed - not imposed. Now sit with that!!! The most powerful sermon delivered in this Republic since the coup that brought Mnangagwa to power - and it is about a man who waited for death to complete itself before he acted. The Cabal has buried the Constitution. They have rolled the stone over the tomb. The Senate has voted. The Bill awaits the President's signature. The process is complete. The death has occurred. The mourners have wept. The 42 in the National Assembly wept. The 4 in the Senate wept. The Generals who warned of enduring consequences wept. The invisible force that has always resolved this nation's deepest questions watched, and waited, and did not intervene. And now the VP stands before the nation and asks: when was he buried? He knows. He has always known. The question is not for him. The question is for you. It is for the people to say: the burial happened. The Constitution was entombed. The stone was sealed. We saw it. We witnessed it. We gave our input. And now - now that the death is admitted, now that the process is exhausted, now that every human agency has been tried and found wanting - now something else must happen. This is not a sermon about Lazarus. This is a sermon about Zimbabwe. This is the language of the Matrix - patient, coded, theological, and devastating!!! The General does not speak idly. He speaks when the moment is approaching. He speaks when the people need to recognise the moment when it arrives. He speaks when the stone is about to be rolled away - not by him, not by a faction, but by the collective will of a people who have acknowledged the death and are ready for the resurrection!!! The Cabal should listen carefully. The man who told them "whoever wins, wins" is about to discover that some victories are just burials in waiting. The man who equated his term with the people's survival is about to learn that survival is not the same as consent. And the man who chuckled at the rally is about to hear a question he cannot answer with a chuckle. The people know. They saw the Parliament vote. They saw the Ayes and the Noes. They saw the abstention. They saw the conveyor belt complete its final turn. They gave their input - in emails, in court applications, in parliamentary speeches, in bullets received and refused. The input is complete. The death is admitted. And now? Now we wait. Not for a faction. Not for a coup. For the stone to move. For the resurrection that follows every burial the Cabal thinks is final. For the Constitution to rise from the tomb they built for it. The Lord waited three days. The people have waited longer. But the waiting is not idle. It is witness. And the witness will be the record that history reads when the stone is rolled away!!! The VP has spoken. The question hangs in the air. When was he buried? The answer is already written in the archive. The resurrection is not a prediction. It is a promise!!! And the people - the true people, not the ghost submissions - will be there to see it.

This is how much this man hates South Africa and Africa. He lies that there is a white genocide in South Africa. He made this speech yesterday. He continues to lie that there is a genocide in South Africa. That is why I do not understand the African idiots who support this man. You have to be a big black African idiot to support Donald Trump. South Africa is the biggest economy in Africa. It has taken care of millions of Africans, giving them an opportunity to pursue their dreams and to feed their families. There are millions of Africans living in South Africa, and yet Donald Trump is trying to destroy that economy that helps many Africans to sustain a decent living. And yet there is a black African who supports this man and sees Trump as a hero. Trump is an idiot. I do not care about him. But I am astonished that there is a black African somewhere in Africa seeing Donald Trump as a hero, and yet the same Donald Trump is trying to destroy the biggest economy in Africa for no apparent legitimate reason. South Africa has done nothing wrong to America, nothing wrong to Donald Trump, and yet yesterday he made this shameless speech. This makes me absolutely angry, livid, to know that there is an African out there who supports this idiot. He is running his racist refugee programme. He has blocked all other black nationals from Africa from seeking asylum in America. That is fine. We do not care about America. But he is using his racist programme to try and destroy the very mainstay of African economics, because that is what South Africa is to Africans. There is no country in Africa that does not have its nationals in South Africa. It takes a certain level of ignorance and idiocy for any black African to support and hail this man as a hero. This man wants to destroy our continent, and yet some African idiot is out there twerking for this guy.

This video was shot by a train driver in Zimbabwe to show the decomposed railway system that now exists. Zimbabwe had one of the best railway systems in the world before independence, it competed with the British Railway system and its signals system was ahead of the British system. It was all destroyed under ZANUPF, there are no more regular passenger trains in Zimbabwe. The National Railways of Zimbabwe is run by the Government. Incompetent relatives and friends of ZANUPF politicians have been appointed as managers and directors, and they ran the company into the ground. The destruction of the railway system has made doing business in Zimbabwe expensive, but the ZANUPF politicians don’t care because they own transport companies that now move goods. Sadly, the last colonial ruler, Ian Smith, made a prophecy in 1980 which, at the time, was deemed racist. He said that under ZANUPF, using the railway system would be deemed dangerous, leading to the abandonment of railway services due to corruption and incompetence. That is exactly what happened. If Smith could talk, he would say, 'I told you so.' When I write about these things, I am called a Western puppet by ZANUPF, yet I am only calling for a return to normalcy that will benefit ALL Zimbabweans! No country succeeds economically without a railway system, destroying the railway system is one of the most UNPATRIOTIC things ZANUPF has ever done! What is patriotic about running a country without a decent railway system and making your country a laughing stock due to tragic failures caused by your corruption and incompetence? The board for the National Railways of Zimbabwe is chaired by ZANUPF politician Mike Madiro. President Emmerson Mnangagwa also appointed 82-year-old ZANUPF politician Tshinga Dube to the board. Before Madiro, the board was chaired by another ZANUPF politician, Martin Dinha. All they do is loot and pillage state enterprises. That is Zimbabwe’s story under ZANUPF, and the evidence is below in this video!

Issues of paternity have shaped our society for generations, especially in Zimbabwe. They did not start today. I remember going to a funeral with my father in the 1990s, and as we sat around the fire the men began sharing stories. One of them has stayed with me ever since. A Zimbabwean doctor had married a nurse, and they struggled to have children. As usual, when there is no child, the blame was placed on the woman. She went to see her own doctor, who told her plainly that she was not the problem, and advised her to bring her husband for testing. The husband refused, as many Zimbabwean men tend to do. Their marriage eventually collapsed, with the man insisting he could not be the problem because he had a child with another woman before marrying the nurse. That woman, he said, was also a doctor, and he was raising that child. After the divorce, the nurse remarried another doctor, and she immediately fell pregnant. Because it was a tight medical community, the whole situation became a talking point. The ex-husband had loudly declared that his former wife was barren, yet here she was having one child after another, three in total, with her new husband. Meanwhile, the ex-husband remarried, and again there were no children. One day the ex-husband and his former wife met at a gathering. During a casual conversation, as people who once knew each other, she told him directly that he was raising a child who was not his. She told him that he had no capacity to father a child and that if he finally went for tests, he would discover the truth. She reminded him how he had insulted her and her parents, and how he had refused to listen. The revelation shook him. He went for tests, and it was confirmed that he was the problem. He had spent seventeen years looking after a child who was not his. The moral of the story is simple, and I always stress this when mentoring young people. When in doubt, check. In fact, even without doubt, check. A DNA test at birth saves you from future heartbreak. Many men are raising children who are not theirs. Some women know exactly what they are doing. Others genuinely do not know because their relationships overlapped before they settled down. In those cases, even the woman cannot be sure who the father is. So when you have a child, get a DNA test. If you ask for one and a woman becomes defensive or resistant, that is a major red flag. At that point, the test is no longer optional, it is necessary. That is the reality of life today. As they say, trust is beautiful, but DNA is confirmation. In this life we live, hope is not a strategy when it comes to your children, so test your child and protect your future, as the saying goes. I have DNA stories that I could share for a whole year. If compulsory DNA testing was demanded of all of us today, you will be shocked by what will come out. This brother in the video is now going through denial. He has been told the truth, but he is still in shock, which is why he is asking for silly things from this woman. It is hard for any man to discover that the child he believed was his belongs to another man. That is why DNA testing is a necessity and why it should be compulsory.

This is a Zimbabwean teacher in South Africa, humiliated like this by fellow Africans. Her problems were authored by Emmerson Mnangagwa and ZANUPF in Zimbabwe. When she tried to fight back, the South African ruling party, the ANC, labelled people like her as Western sell-outs. The ANC sent delegations, led by its secretary-general and its youth leader, to show solidarity with Mnangagwa’s corrupt rule, which has driven Zimbabweans onto South African soil creating social flush points. I am not a prophet, but I can assure you that the ANC’s continued support for ZANUPF and Mnangagwa will result in more lost votes in the 2026 elections. It is that simple. You cannot support a thief next door who is starving his children, leading them to end up on your doorstep, and not expect political consequences. Botswana’s former ruling party, the BDP, was warned about the same ZANUPF phenomenon. Like the ANC, it ignored it. Today, it is in opposition. We do not live in a binary world. It is a fact that ZANUPF and Mnangagwa have authored this crisis. It is also a fact that the ANC has supported ZANUPF’s failed leadership. It is equally true that many Zimbabwean immigrants naturally sought better opportunities in South Africa because of this problem. It is also a fact that South African citizens are frustrated by being forced to share depleted social services with foreign nationals. All these things are facts. However, it takes real leadership to know how to respond to the crisis. At present, the leadership chair is empty, some are paying bribes, some are receiving them on both sides of Limpopo. Meanwhile, the voters will have the final say in South Africa, because it is a democracy. One day, we shall write about the ANC in the past tense, if the leadership chair remains empty. The distinction between black-led South Africa and Zimbabwe, and white-led South Africa and Rhodesia, was that the whites told each other the truth when they met. They would not allow an entire country to sink just to placate a neighbouring corrupt leader. South Africa is now sinking, with poverty-stricken citizens who are genuinely out of the formal economy. Illegal immigration is the last headache it needs in a Trumpian world. When Ian Smith tried to pull a ZANUPF on John Vorster, he was told to voetsek. President Cyril Ramaphosa needs to show leadership by confronting ZANUPF, but from all I know, he won’t. Both the Zimbabwean teacher and the South African nurses are victims of failed leadership. Hospitals are dilapidated in Zimbabwe, and Fikile Mbalula shouts, “Viva President Mnangagwa.” You could not make this sh*t up. When South African hospitals are swarmed, the same ANC cries the same immigration tune. But who is facilitating it?

The man who invented modern fantasy didn't publish his first novel until he was forty-five. By that age, J.R.R. Tolkien had already built a respectable life. He was an Oxford professor, an expert in ancient languages, with a wife and four children and a settled academic career. He was exactly the kind of man who might reasonably have decided that the shape of his life was already fixed. The work he would be remembered for, he had not yet even begun... The story, which Tolkien told himself, is that one summer he was grading examination papers, when he turned a page and found that a student had left it blank. Without quite knowing why, he wrote a single sentence on it: "In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit." He did not know what a hobbit was. He had spent years inventing languages and mythologies as a private passion, and telling stories to his own children, never imagining any of it would reach the world. But that one line began to grow. It became a story, and then a book, and in 1937, at the age of forty-five, Tolkien published The Hobbit. It was a success, and his publisher asked for a sequel. Tolkien warned them it might take some time. It took 17 years... He wrote it in the margins of a demanding full-time job, revising endlessly, doubting it often. When The Lord of the Rings was finally published, in 1954 and 1955, he was in his early sixties. That book, begun as a middle-aged professor's private side project, went on to sell well over a hundred million copies, to invent modern fantasy as we know it, and to reshape the imagination of the entire world. Tolkien already had a full and respectable life behind him. And still, the thing he is remembered for, the thing that outlived him and reached hundreds of millions of people, was something he began at forty-five, at an age when it would have been the easiest thing in the world to tell himself he had already missed his chance. He didn't. It's never as late as it feels.

CNN’s John Miller tells Jake Tapper in the 6pm hour that it’s now clear the Minneapolis Catholic school shooter did not have “a specific motive” and there “won’t” ever “be a specific motive” because his “manifesto” was “kind of rambling” and “hate[d] everybody”.... “Well, looking through the manifesto, that's a lot of pages. Kind of rambling. A lot of it is his self pity for how his life is going, that he has been depressed for a long time, that he has been planning to do this for a long time, that he knows it's wrong, that he knows his friends are going to hate him for it, that he knows he's going to take his own life at the end of it. He said it was better to die standing up than kneeling down for all the injustices he appears to believe he has suffered during his life. This is not foreign territory for us. Basically, I look at this guy and I know this guy because we've seen this guy before. He has written messages all over his rifles to homages to the New Zealand shooter who killed 51 Muslims in mosques while they were praying to the Norway shooter who killed children in — in a camp. And — and is as known as the biggest body count, very much like what we saw among the Buffalo shooter. These are individuals who, you know, we look for that specific motive. There won't be a specific motive. He's got problems in his life. He has decided to blame everybody else. He has anti-black messages, anti-Semitic messages, anti-religious messages, anti-God messages. In other words, his motive is he hates everybody because his life's a mess. And he figures it's not his fault.”
