Ahmedhussain3463: lol,communist are more humane that the so called capitalism in the real sense.why communist put interest of society first capitalist give individual free hands to amass wealth to the detrimend of society. This is wrong. Capitalists believe that it is in the interest of society to allow individuals work hard because they have something to gain fromt heir hard work. Communism on the other hand practices state control and forces or coerces people to do the things that are supposedly int he interest of society. Without delving into the merits and demerits of either, you simply cannot say communism is more human than capitalism. That simply cannot be supported by any interpretation or evidence. |

id911: You must be very naive in Zimbabwe politics. The Crocodile is the most brutal and deadly man in Zimbabwe. A guerrilla warlord who dealt with the British. A former Spy Chief. Most times, he drives around Harare without security. He and Gen. Giwenga were the two people who had kept Mugabe in power since the eighties
Read a little thing about him, you will understand even the opposition are afraid of him. All of which is why i fear Zimbabwe has gone from the frying pan straight into the fire. |

What are you talking about? What does him being proven guilty have to do with him being present at the sentencing?? If you know you don't know how legal systems work, then stick to talking about what you knwo about! And for your info, innocent until proven guilty only applies in the Common Law legal system. |

Romance › Re: Twitter User Asked For 500 Retweets To Get A Date. See What He Got. by SmartyPants(m): 8:14pm On Nov 22, 2017 |
xxxtedyxxx: lol wrong move. This guy is a chronic asslicker. The babe is in control of the convo, and the outcome. Why? Because he is obviously doing all the work, while she stays relaxed.
The one who does all the work in a convo/relationship is the who who more attracted, and hence, the one who will feel more pain during a breakup.
This guy fit hang himself if the babe cancel the date, walai....  Bruv in a situation like this you either go after what you want and shun your pride for a minute, or you let it slip past you. First of all its obvious the girl is already partly interested, otherwise she would never play along and even reduce the number of retweets from 2k to 500. She did this coz she wanted him to actually win! But of course she still has to maintain some aloofness to make the guy take her serious so she gave and she withdrew. Typical strategy women use. Think of it as going to visit your crush and she opens the door but frowns her face at the same time. (you cant blame women for doing this they are only protecting themselves). Secondly, when you go after a girl on a platform like twitter, by default she will always be in control. Twitter does not give you much room to show yourself or make an impression, and this is a lady who gets at least 5 guys hitting on her per day. If you try to play any games, she will lose interest and you wont get what you want. The only option the guy had was to do whatever he could to neutralize the environment by getting her to go on a date by any means necessary. Once on the date, he can then begin to assert his dominance. |

How is that conversation good for unwinding? When I've to fry my brain for every statement the second party makes? It's a turn off really, I'll get bored and never chat you up. Yea honestly that level of abbreviation/laziness would probably be irritating. It does make the person typing in that way seem childish or unintelligent.

Romance › Re: Lets Talk About What Constitutes Sexual Harrassment And Rape by SmartyPants(m): 12:39pm On Nov 22, 2017 |
The first thing you need to understand and understand very well, is that Rape is defined by the law of the land.
In most common law countries, rape is sexual intercourse that takes place under any or all of the following conditions:
1. One partner was physically forced 2. One partner was threatened with harm of any kind 3. One partner said no (even if he or she did not physically resist) 4. The consent of one partner was not sought at all (lets say the person was asleep) 5. One partner was induced by the use of drugs or other substances
NB: some of these may not apply in marriage. |
Politics › Re: Nigerian Army Introduces New Language Policy For Officers And Soldiers by SmartyPants(m): 12:32pm On Nov 22, 2017 |
CharleyBright: My Goodness! They have come again with their agenda.
Which Tribe / Region dominates the Military?? Answer: Northern Hausa. Aside from English, which language is dominant in the Military?? Answer: Hausa Language Prescribing Arabic, Hausa, French for additional language for the Military and paying Language allowance for same tantamount to paying the Northern officers for a language they already know., while forcing other tribes to learn and adopt either Hausa or Arabic language cos surely and certainly the authorities will find a way to ensure Hausa and Arabic are the options available. Afterf all, isn't it " Obey the Last Command"? Will the officers question the authorities? Soon enough, they will turn and make Hausa and Arabic language a prerequisite for entry into Nigerian military.. The North always have a subtle way of projecting their northern interest. The North should leave our Military alone and stop tinkering with the Military policies to their advantage. Tell the Military authorities to make Degree the Minimum entry into the Military to ensure Professionalism and Effiency, they will NEVER accept it because the North will lose out as most candidates from the North has SSCE or primary sch cert which they usually use as entry into the Military. Hey! Mr Man learn to read and comprehend well!! The three languages to be learnt are Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa, not Arabic, Hausa and French! |

Like I always tell such people, if I'm going to type the normal way for you, that gesture should be reciprocated. And for those who chat shorthand, such as; k, u, sumtin, e.t.c.. I hope the time they would've used to type correctly, made a change in their lives. Come on, why do you have to be so uptight? It's okay if you want to type the proper way but chatting is informal--something people do to unwind so need to go all head-mistressy on a person just coz they type in a certain way. Life is not that serious. |

Foreign Affairs › Re: Zimbabwean President, Robert Mugabe Resigns After 37 Years by SmartyPants(m): 7:08pm On Nov 21, 2017 |
Sapiosexuality: Which people? Which people are they acting for? Which large crowd? A crowd of less than 10000 people should be used as yardstick for the position of 14 million Zimbabweans? Forget it!
I don't agree that the end justifies the means. For me, both the means and ends must be justified in democracy and any attempt at commonsense. The people have not said they are tired of Democracy. They are yet to make that stand.
As long what happens there, what the coup plotters are trying to portray, looks like a democracy, its tenets must be fully satisfied. They must discard their laws before they start trying 'whatever works'.
The people have no hands in this. In Egypt, when Mubarak was ousted, we saw that face you are trying to paint here. The people have nothing to do with this. Some men simply feel Uncle Roo is taking them for a ride. Do a little search on the head of that coup. Hey my guy, some things are just basic: A.i The voice of the people is expressed both by (a) The actions and speech of the people, (b) By their silence (c) By the acts of their elected representatives. In this case, some people have come out and supported the coup. Almost as importantly, no one has come out to denounce it. Not the opposition, not Mugabe's party people. No one. (c) Furthermore, the elected representatives, that is the parliamentary body are in support of his removal. The voice of the people has been expressed in all its forms, in support of the coup. ii. if you have done statistics you should know that 10, 000 is an excellent sample size from which to draw inferences. Obviously, not everyone is going to go out to the streets to register their opinion. B. There is no one single form of democracy, and the only tenet of democracy is that the will of the people be obeyed. Democracy is not a form of government per se it is a concept of government which is subject to interpretation. That is why US democracy is vastly different from UK democracy in the form of government employed. |
Foreign Affairs › Re: Zimbabwean President, Robert Mugabe Resigns After 37 Years by SmartyPants(m): 6:40pm On Nov 21, 2017 |
Sapiosexuality: So was it the people that carried out the coup or some group of evil military and party chiefs trying a new spec of evil? The people have nothing to do with this. Men of power did this and not the people.
Secondly, assuming the people did, once the people sanction a coup in a democracy, it ceases to be a democracy. Democratic rights end once democracy ends.
Their are other means through which good governance can be achieved. It is very hard to believe that the majority will support his sack through undemocratic means but they can't through Democratic means. A. You must understand that the military here have acted as an agency of the people. This is evidenced by the large crowds that have turned out to show their support for the coup. Major political revolution cannot succeed without the endorsement of the people. B. Again, democracy is not the goal in and of itself. If democracy is not useful for achieving a goal then it must be dispensed with immediately. The end justifies the means. C. You are mixing democracy up with constitutionalism. They are quite different. Democracy is the system of government that derives its authority from the people. Lets define democracy in simpler terms: "The system of government that represents the will of the people". So if the people decide to back the military to take over power or eliminate the current power holder, that is perfectly democratic. Constitutionalism is the theory that establishes a constitution as the supreme source of law and of political power. However, even constitutionalism links this power of the constitution back to the people. Really, constitutionalism is merely a support mechanism to democracy, and can never assume superior importance. It is people who come together to forge societies and determine how they should be ruled; therefore, at any point in time they may choose to abolish or overrule the system that they themselves created. People>Laws(constitution)>government. |

Sapiosexuality: Who then determines the limit of this good governance you speak of? And how is a coup good governance or a good thing simply because one demon was removed? A. The people B. The coup itself is not an act of governance, whether good or bad. It is merely the means through which the people attempt to rectify bad governance. |
Foreign Affairs › Re: Zimbabwean President, Robert Mugabe Resigns After 37 Years by SmartyPants(m): 6:07pm On Nov 21, 2017 |
Sapiosexuality: Still undemocratic. No matter how they try make the thing appear democratic, it is not. Democracy doesn't work like that. You don't make change in a democracy like that. What happened is a coup. No afterthought can change that.
Power and life is transient. Mugabe who once boasted no military coup can remove him is now under house arrest by the military.
The condemnation by the war veterans in 2016 of abandoning the revolution didn’t help his case either. They had accused him of promoting corruption and said they will not support him in next year’s election.
His treatment of the white farmers in his country didn’t help him or his country either and the sanctions he got suffered the country.
Till now, none of the western counties, who love to promote democratic values, has condemned the military coup. Tacit support or endorsement?
His wife has received criticisms and Mugabe’s attempt to pass her the touch annoyed the military, politicians and revolutionaries more. It seems everyone is finally fed up with him that even when democratic values are shattered to remove him, no one seem to care.
In Egypt when a similar thing happened, it was regarded as a ‘military intervention’ by the US and other powers when obviously a coup happened. What happened in Zimbabwe is a coup but unfortunately, Mugabe has annoyed so many people, destroyed so many laws and his authoritarianism has made it difficult to speak about him in the democratic language.
http://www.mortalpoet.com/mugabe-going-going Democracy is not the goal in and of itself. Good governance is the goal and whatever means it takes to achieve that, so be it. |
