1] As i poke holes into this silly stunt by Bertha, i maintain that attacking her person, remains vile & uncalled for.
Noone benefits anything from giving her all sorts of derogatory labels which attack her gender, tribe etc.
That being said...yawn!!
2] To begin with, saying Sen DM will be blamed if the army attacks protestors unsurprisingly attracts ridicule.
It comes out as desperation to have him as part of this conversation, when he actually isn't
It equally entrenchs polarization.
This defeatism & victimhood is silly
3] Saying "ZanuPG must go where" is embarrassingly patronizing.
more so, coming from someone in the Opposition.
The #ZanuPFMustGo campaign didnt hijack the "universal" #AntiCorruption campaign.
Those targeting "corruption & looting" are the ones hijacking anti-Zanu activities.
4] More and more citizens are realizing that our problems are institutionalized.
You can't take looting & corruption out of ZanuPF.
These people have been engaged in primitive accumulation of wealth & won't move a muscle because of a "anti-corruption" walkabout on July31st.
5] Insisting that for the demo to succeed, it must attract those in ZanuPF is a poor prognosis of what's at fault.
Its a poor mischaracterized identification of the Zimbabwean problem.
The same is exposed by Sen DM's "rational disputation" thinking.
It's shallow & hollow
6] Again, saying #ZanuMustGo alienates 50% of 2018 voters is unscientific.
Where was that census done?
With so much having had happened between 2018 & now (including splits), how do we measure electoral support?
The problems of today have no relationship with ZEC 2018 figures
7] Saying the "MDC has neglected rural voters" is a hollow generalization
Speaking factually,in 2018, @nelsonchamisa campaigned in rural areas more than any other time
Using the outcome as the basis for that argument expose naivety & lack of appreciation of our electoral system
8] Also, saying the organizers are sacrificing the "poor urbanites through unstrategic actions" attacks the rationality & free-will of those who will participate.
In actual fact, @nelsonchamisa has been attacked by a section of his supporters for not calling for demos since 2018
9] It then boarders on shallowness to say people are being pushed to march.
The so called "poor urbanites" have been at the receiving end of ZanuPF's mismanagement of the country, & have demanded action.
They have brains & can either participate or ignore the demo calls.
10] It's sad really that on one hand, you have ZanuPF which says the Opposition is remote controlled from Washington & on the other hand, you have the supposedly enlightened claiming that Zimbos are being tricked into participating in an unstrategic demo
Why patronize people?
11] So really, Madame Mwonzora, whereas i unequivocally denounce violence threats targeted at your person, kindly note that you don't patronize people and except hugs & kisses.
A flowery accent isn't enough.
You also need brains & emotional intelligence.
goodday.
enkosi!!
12] It's equally hilarious to see reference to "electoral legitimacy"
By acts of ommission & commission, the government of Emmerson now suffers from "performance illegitimacy"
And unfortunately for them, in 2017, they showed that a "constitutionally" elected gvt can go midterm!
