- Reposted by GoddessofTheoryFinally, It would have been advisable to reference sources beyond the BBC & especially progressive Kenyan media. Also the referenced BBC article explains why Kenyan farmers have reservations about the livestock vaccines including low trust of the government. Your summary doesn't highlight that.
- Reposted by GoddessofTheoryAlso it's not as if Mark Zuckerberg is a bad billionaire and Bill Gates is a good billionaire which is the conjecture the article seems to be framing. Billionaires shouldn't exist. Period.
- Reposted by GoddessofTheoryHi could you please have an in-depth feature on the legitimate fears Kenyans have about the cow vaccination program. The summary in this feature is rather dismissive and yet they are valid concerns that have been raised by citizens and stakeholders including the Kenya Veterinary Association.
- Reposted by GoddessofTheoryYour regular reminder that it wasn’t until the mid 1990s that Africa caught up with Europe’s population. Relatively speaking, there *used to be* a lot of Europeans.

- The app that has positioned itself as the most radical anti-imperialist seems to have the least material analysis on the events in Syria. A quick scan of the posts onhere, and one would never know that N*tanyahu has confessed to supporting rebels and is bombing Damascus as we speak.
- A couple of weeks back, during the mass exodus from twitter to bluesky, someone joked that over here, it's all ice cream and flowers. Nothing particularly bad about those things. But I've equally noticed that this app is full of academics and a confirmation of the worst stereotypes about academics.

- Crucial lessons from twitter. If you disagree with someone's takes, don't give it a second thought. Don't just mute, because they'll still have access. Block and carry on. Thank me later.
- Whenever you find yourself on the side of CNN, it's time to reevaluate your decisions.
- People who've enabled the year-long genocide in Palestine suddenly don't wake up on the right side of history. Over 100,000 Palestinians have been murdered with their support.
- This!!! It likely won't be a positive because the replacement is CIA/Zionist backed. Anyway, we wait and see. The online space is too hostile to any critical thinking right now.

- It’s easy to be sceptical of pan-Africanism. The notion that Africa isn’t just a geographical space but a metaphysical entity whose population, though genetically the most diverse on earth, shares culture, heritage and a common fate, can seem dubious. But, the idea is bred of necessity not genetics.
