Yup. Made the right choice. Anyone still on X is an accomplice to these maniacs in America. Defund the MuskRat & find alternatives.

Zelensky is not playing. His people, our people, are suffering and dying. The Tramp has no idea what he is doing.

So important to read these stories, as Boubacar Boris Diop says of 100 Days, 100 Stories, the book exorcises "absolute evil through dialogue between Rwandans" - it's an extraordinary publication that should be widely read.
