1] The #keyboard warriors saga & it's 10 tragedies

Firstly, it would be tragically naive for any politician, let alone aspiring leader, to deliberately ridicule & downplay the importance of the diaspora community.

It's a key constituency, though most won't travel back to vote.
2] Secondly, though solidarity is key, it would be tragic if more citizens, choose to identify with the label, for whatever reason, and take those isolated exchanges which saw the labeling, as an insult targeting every other social media user.

This fire doesn't need fueling.
3] Thirdly, it would be tragic is all observers choose to ignore the hidden hand of ghosts/varakashi, in many exchanges with the 'leaders', resulting in them pushing back

Sadly & tragically, sometimes the 'push back' hits the wrong target, or more appropriately, a fellow soldier

I remember two moments very early on in my teaching career that led me to REALLY understand the importance of keyboard accessibility. They turned out to be pivotal moments that made web accessibility feel completely natural to me.
The first? In 1995 I bought my own computer, and noticed that there were really tiny screws on the back that I could remove. When it was time to get online, I bought my own modem (US Robotics 14.4 fax internal model) and endeavoured to install it myself.
I went for it but messed it up. I installed the modem on the right COM port but with the same IRQ as my mouse. I didn’t know any better //shrug
