Patriarchy is illogical. None of it matches material reality. It’s the longest running PR scam in history.
Men calling women bad drivers when men still cause 73- 78% of fatal and serious car crashes. Men calling women “too emotional” when men commit 80 - 88% of violent crimes (and most war crimes) yet also form 80 - 86% of police and security forces maintaining law and order. Men calling women “dependent” even though women still perform about three times more unpaid care and domestic work worldwide. Men calling women “overly sensitive” even though women score higher in cognitive empathy across 57 countries.

Dear whole of Africa, If I see one more tweet asking why we don’t like this guy 😡😡😡
Over Sh13 billion was added to the cost of the Bomas project, increasing it from Sh31.7 billion to Sh45.1 billion without explanation. Here is how in the thread below:

I’ve said this and I’ll say it again, both of them are useless. The fact that one stole tomatoes and the other oranges doesn’t tell them apart. What Uhuru did with PFM Act in 2014 can impoverish this country forever.

Why do people act like makeup is some essential pillar of womanhood that meant some older woman had to guide us through it
This is bizzarely untrue? Y'all telling me NO ONE, not a mom, auntie, sister, cousin, friend from school, etc taught you makeup? No one? 😕

You cannot challenge any oppressive structure without at least one of the tools by which the oppressive structure maintains its power. WOMEN MUST AMASS MONEY BY ANY MEANS POSSIBLE
“Have your own money” feminism is doing considerable damage to the feminist movement, and it is funny how many feminists seem blind to it. Misogyny is not something that happens exclusively to financially dependent women. Wealthy, educated, female and financially independent women experience misogyny, domestic violence, sexual exploitation and discrimination. We are prescribing individualistic solutions to systemic and collective problems. We are telling women to find personal ways to survive oppression rather than challenging the structures that make that oppression possible in the first place. Financial independence can give a woman options, but it cannot, on its own, dismantle misogyny. We need to stop confusing individual survival strategies with collective liberation.

Situations like this don't happen in a vacuum, tbh. When public clinics and hospitals are filled with nurses who judge and humiliate young girls for seeking reproductive healthcare or contraceptives, it drives them into isolation out of fear and that’s dangerous.

What attracted me to @sumeiya_omar is her boldness. I remember being in awe of her in 2024. I am so proud of you, Sumi. Kwa yote ya nje, ya ndani, I am glad I get to work alongside you and call you my friend.

My contribution to society is I don’t speak boldly on a topic that I am not educated on.

i wasnt warned about the younger one lmaooo
As a woman there’ll be a weird phase in your life where you will ONLY attract married men, men in relationships or younger men. And it will be a rotation of the 3. It’s very important that you ignore them because it passes very quickly. I have no idea what causes it

By the way, this statement is more spot on than we realise. There's a leeching energy in this country - look at our forests, land, money, spiritual lives, souls - nothing is flourishing at all, nothing is nurturing, birthing. The energy is just devouring and destroying.
Overheard in a ma3 juzi: hii pesa ya Lootall ni ya kiume. Haizai hata ufanye nini 😭. Tupambane tuweke mtu ataleta pesa ya kike bwana. Tumeteseka sana. I felt that

Which honestly is a danger , we pass knowledge orally, losing nuance means so much of the wisdom that has been consistently passed is gonna be lost ..

You people find new ways to say you’re emotionally stunted and can’t communicate, every day.
The safest way to avoid attachment mimi huona ni kuavoid kuongea na the same person kila siku

This conversation shows how our generation lacks wisdom nothing about happy wife happy life says the man should abandon himself, again lacking nuance as adults to the point wisdom has to be delivered to us like toddlers is dangerous
T.I. wasn’t buying into the whole “happy wife, happy life” saying “If it ain’t no happy me, it ain’t gon’ be no happy we” “Let’s ask Lil Wayne…” 💀😂 (📹 Royal Absurdities/YouTube)

imagine what that money can do for public spaces and sport centers for our kids through out the country. Same gov that steal from out athletes ndio mnadhani give a fuck. Watu waache kujidanganya exposure manade. nkt.
1 billion for 90mins? Our taxes!? Money that we pay to govt, they want to misuse? 1b can do miracles for football development in Kenya, but you want to spend it in 90mins? We will be very very selfish
