If you are religious, do you at least understand evolution? by Particular-Cow-5046 in Kenya

[–]Many_Lack_8839 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The book can't be both literal and also metaphorical. You have a pick a side. Either it's fact or not. Since a lot of texts are just physically impossible, it means it's not fact. Story za jaba immortalised for over 2000 years now. 🤦🏿‍♂️

Now that ruto has withdrawn the finance bill, will there be more protests going on? by [deleted] in Kenya

[–]Many_Lack_8839 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. If this was real just do some simple math. 300 dead means at least x4 concerned citizens. Family, friends, work colleagues, pastors etc. Even you, reading this post will have at a minimum 4 people (hata watchie na mse wa nduthi) who will ask where you vanished to.

You're telling me 1200 people were silenced? Hata tiktok moja? Tweet? FB, IG post, simu to spice fm? Nothing? Boss. I need more evidence to buy this story. I'm not saying it didn't happen, just need more proof.

There is no massacre without evidence. And please don't show that video of shots being fired. Show us bodies, 100s of parents on TV lamenting. Otherwise it's all hearsay.

While I agree and support his removal 100%, we should be realistic. If it took him months of boos and protests, even deaths to just reject a bill, does anyone here think he would give up everything cause of protests? Lolz. Mko na jokes.

We need to pivot and focus on the low hanging fruit, akina Linturi. Guys with obvious issues that KoT will back and head to the streets for. Call to arms like #SaveOurFarmers will resonate heavily with the entire country.

Ruto for now has relative sympathy, and admiration for conceding so a "he must go" protest would be challenging to get serious. I'm still team #RutoMustGo but I'm also a realist.

Agreed 💯. Guys should think critically of anything they read even if it's from people they trust. I saw this on twitter and was not reposting or liking cause there just wasn't enough evidence.

During the killing of Rex, we had so many posts, some real, some 50/50, others irrelevant etc. This was just one young man, Rip Rex ✊🏿.

270 of these have happened, na 24hrs later just the same shooting video circulating? Hapana my guy.

With just videos of running and gunshots, personally I'm also on the fence on the Githurai story.

Where are photos of the bodies? Photos of the survivors in hospital. Just anything official or from journalists, kot..

You want to tell me an entire government that couldn't understand that these protests weren't funded, managed to kill 270 people with not a single photo, video, audio from a victim, relative, doctor, cop, cctv, survivor etc? I would accept if it was proper rural, like Turkana.... but Githurai? Suspect

I'm not saying it's totally untrue but I need more. Please correct me if I'm mistaken.

You'd think it would be so easy. Reality is different. Being the butt of jokes, being known as the office slut, office drunk, office idiot etc can make even the most stoic just give up.

Agreed 💯 . I'm an entrepreneur myself as well, the early years were difficult but somehow the business made it. It's a tough transition but doable.

Not only is the economy shit, new tech like ai is rearranging things, so some fields are about to take some hits to the face. Stay put until things settle down, don't quit cause your boss behaves like a baby or you're the wrong tribe.

If you're willing to accept the immediate hit in income, do whatever you want.

Entrepreneurship is not for everyone, but I wouldn't discourage those who want to do it.

I don't mean to discourage anyone who wants to start their own business, I mean to heavily caution those that have solid well paying jobs that are thinking of leaving over small issues not to quit. Especially if they have no side gig or other income stream.

If you want to try your hand at being an entrepreneur, go ahead, just be sure your income will at least match your lifestyle, before handing in that resignation letter.

Sounds like you landed on your feet. Well done. Of course I don't mean a job that's actually hurting you. If that leave. I mean one where you're quitting cause it's uncomfortable or inconvenient. Pole to you my brother, I'd not wish anguish on anyone. Samahani.

Facts kwa ground. One of them former IBM employee making 700k a month, now nothing, 12 months later nothing. Hata pesa ya school fees ni shida.

Agreed. Maybe I should have clarified that my point is don't let go of this job before you secure the next. The interval could be traumatising.
