FAMILIES TODAY:
FATHER: Absent or weak and effeminate. He can't correct children's misbehaviour. He fears his wife. Coward. He tolerates defiance from children.
MOTHER: She is disobedient and rude. Disrespects FATHER in front of children. Loud-mouthed. She can't cook or clean the house. Lacks grace. Lazy.
CHILDREN: Defiant. Talk back at parents. Shout at adults. Throw tantrums when they won't get what they want. Uncouth language.
At the dinner table: They are all on phones scrolling. No intimate conversations. Children eat from their bedrooms, FATHER on the couch watching TV, mother in the kitchen scrolling TikTok.
PARENTS denigrate teachers.
"That teacher is always broke. He stinks. His wife is poor."
"If that teacher tells you to re-do this assignment, tell me. He will know who I am."
How then do you expect the children to be obedient and respectful to teachers and the school?
Children are echoing our manners.
No one will tell you this, but Quickmart is the most expensive supermarket in Kenya, while Carrefour is the cheapest among the major supermarket chains. Ironically, many Kenyans avoid Carrefour bcoz they assume it is expensive coz most of its stores are located in shopping malls.
We are officially in World Cup month. Please leave your xG charts, pressing percentages, and defensive metrics in the club season. International tournament football is strictly decided by pure vibes, individual brilliance, tactical survival, and a random goalkeeper turning into prime Lev Yashin for two weeks. Enjoy the entertainment and put the spreadsheets away.
Every World Cup has that one completely random striker who turns into prime Ronaldo Nazário for exactly two weeks, has a great tournament, signs a £60M contract with a top club, and then disappears from football forever.
I wonder who it's going to be this month
This African madness about foreign football teams (especially from colonial brutes) while not being mad against police brutality, abuse of power, exploitation and grinding poverty, is one of the main reasons why liberating Africa has been difficult. To be liberated, Africans must liberate their MINDS and the illusions, fantasies and myths from and about the UK, Europe and America—and everything these imperialist regimes represent.
Don’t bore me about “it’s sports” or “religion.” I call it MENTAL COLONIZATION!
Now, go ahead and have a breakdown on @X!
