The Case Against the World Bank

Small me, Soko, has done my part. I reduced my carbon footprint. Mostly riding my bike instead of driving. The temperature in my house is just above cold. I recycle. So, I qualify to have my say about global warming. The claim that the developed countries had abused the environment in the 20th century is correct. But to say that the roaring developing countries, led by China, should be given leeway is hogwash. What about the technologies that came out of the 20th century exploits that are now available to all and sundry? This time I go along with whitie. What would Lao Tzu do? Let us do the right thing, Chinaman.

Is the Cablanasian (Caucasian, Black, Asian) a coward? What is he hiding from? The Caucasian and Black in him will probably not help him much—the respective slyness and freakiness have already landed him in hot water. He probably now need to call on the wisdom of his Asian heritage. What would Lao Tzu do? What would Sun Tzu do? What would Kung Fu Tzu (Confucius) do? What about Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha?

The Viking woman is gone. She went to Babylon as a nanny, and is going home a multi-millionaire. Who says sex was cheap? The only ones who have it free are the rapists who rob it. If you think I am a kukuhead, wait until you lose your job that you are convinced defines you. Memshahib will walk. If not, she will create so much chaos in your head that big John will be paralyzed , or you might lose it and kick her bleeding ass/arse. Either way you lose—she now has all the legal reasons to walk away with your children, house, half of your retirement account, and the cat!

Plegding a united front against the sly NRM (a.k.a Museveni) is one thing (and a good one); keeping focused and working skillfully is another. It is better to be proactive than reactive. I learned that a long time ago when playing in the sand and having my khaki school uniform caked with mago juice. You go home bloodied, but you have gained respect from the bully dude.
Let him go to the bush and stay there forever and see if anybody cares.

A few Baganda MPs, with balls, voted against the NRM Land Bill. Dubbed as indiscipline, the boss warned of reprisals. That is soooooooo 19th century politicking. Will the "wayward" MPs fold? If history is any leading indicator, Yes. Surprise me, brothas and sistas.

Buturo is no longer foaming at his mouth condemning "sex against nature." What[]up? Is the anti-gay NRM-Anglican alliance unravelling? Mr. Museveni is no fool. He knows which side of his bread is buttered. He will test the water. If it is scalding hot, he will pour some cold water lest he burns his Munyankole rear end. The throne has his soul--he is not going to mess with it just because of some fanatic christians who are not going to cause any seismic change in voter count. What if the law nails an American or European gay diplomat who has to be hanged in Kampala? Just imagine.

As promised , this is another must see film. Bamako is the case of Africa against the World Bank and other Western institutions. Politicians, educators, and students will have a lot to talk about. Pay attention to the imageries and the nuances. Enjoy!
