How President Museveni and ruling NRM preside over ethnic cleansing of Uganda’s economy

Ethnic cleansing is not genocide, which can, biologically-speaking, be reduced to “genetic death”- the death of genes. Genes are the building blocks of all living things.

More wineskin than wine: ‘Western values’ is a framework for legitimating and justifying actions by ‘moral police’

Today, the response to Israel’s murderous campaign in Gaza has laid bare the hollowness of Western moral posturing.
