Justified Inequality

Think of a world where resources are distributed equally, Marxism per se. Everyone has the same wage, the same job, and a house is the same quality and we get the same resources equally. So per se, no one is wealthier than the other, the is no labor exploitation and we all have the same lifestyle. Sounds like a good life right, fair and perfect. Truth be told the measure of equality does not motivate us, we can't be equal. That's why we have those in power and those out of power. The ruling or elitist class and the masses. There is no in-between. The question to be asked is why society is structured the way it is. Is it to oppress, yes, is to motivate yes? The sociologists and the media will preach that such a system is oppressive but what they forget to tell you is that it motivates. Motivation in the status quo of oppression.

Injustice Of Crime

The police and the detectives do their job, they find Michael and arrest him. His prosecuted for the crime he committed but thus is total injustice and completely wrong. The criminal justice system has prosecuted the wrong perpetrator. The so-called murderer, Michael is not a murderer just a victim of the causes of crime and mu

A Political Race Between A Coup President And A Coup Opposition Leader

So November 2017 was regarded as the era of Operation Restore Legacy to the masses. Well, it wasn't anything linked to restoring a legacy but an " Operation Coup d' teat" to those who think well and are sound-minded. This led to the ascendancy of President Emmerson Mnangagwa. Nelson Chamisa on the other hand held a soft "coup" to rise to the ranks of opposition leader which was a violation of the MDC constitution yet this coup of his own was aided by populism and a wide fan base. Then what do we have for the 2018 presidential elections race, two coup leaders fighting for the people's vote to legitimize their coup and a bunch of circus politicians vying to divide the votes? Firstly the story for the past 2 decades was Mugabe must go. Well, several people understood the context of Mugabe must go and those who did not. What was the real context of the " Mugabe must go " phase? Simple that Robert Mugabe and Zanu PF must go not Mugabe as an individu
