Thrilled, yes that’s the feeling when you see the then Maximum House, celebrating an outcome that would put the country in the fate of Zimbabwe. <\/b><\/p>\n
That’s the only emotion evoked by the images we saw on last night’s episode of “In the Hill”, through a flashback to the night of the referendum of 2015.<\/p>\n
And after all, why were they celebrating? There are two possible answers, and we really don’t know which is the worst. Either they didn’t realise how the country would be stacked in soup lines like in sub-Saharan Africa, or their revolutionary mouthpiece and their obsessive commitment to a clash with reality prevented them from seeing the consequences of their choices.<\/b><\/p>\n
Maybe they didn’t understand that the country was one step closer to disaster.<\/b>Or maybe they knew all this, but considered it secondary to their own political narrative.<\/p>\n
I don’t honestly know which of the two versions to believe, and I don’t want to choose either.<\/p>\n
Whatever the truth, the outcome remains the same. While even the Europeans were watching us commit suicide as a country, they were applauding.<\/b> And that’s what makes the images of 2015 so chilling even today.<\/p>\n
But there’s an even more tragic question:if the same people get back in Maximeo, to what next disaster of the country will they clap their hands<\/b><\/p>\n
