Huh? A little Barea and Tosika Famono and that’s it, the endemics are happy, ve? 🤣 The tropical version of bread and circuses seems to be working perfectly then.
Okay, a small nuance: take any country in the world, football is practically the only sport in the world to fascinate the vast majority of its population.
And that’s true here in the northern hemisphere as much as in the southern. Even if the socio-economic climate is gloomy, a victory in a major tournament will cause an explosion of joy in the streets. We don’t even talk about the World Cup.
So yes, even if 75% of the population is poor and starving… even if you have no water or electricity (it’s getting worse by the way), your team finds itself in the final of an important African tournament, boom, we forget all these little miseries and explode with joy?
Whether we approve or disapprove in any way, it won’t change this popular reflex at all. That’s how it is… and zara ara misy hifaliana? 🤣
And some smart alecks have understood how to exploit this famous panem circenses to the limit.
The governance is shitty, there are no other words, but to manipulate the plebs with the pseudonym “sosialy mbahoaka“, waaa, world champions!
In short, the sensationalist smoke and mirrors against a backdrop of headlong rush continue happily.
Purchasing power continues to melt like snow in the sun, the (hard) back-to-school season is next week
… but who cares! Aleo aloa hirevy kely ram’s this weekend aaa! By the way, for the champions’ return home, are you at least not going to put them in a garbage truck like in 2019? Or a nighttime ceremony like the mpamosavy?
The social back-to-school season promises to be hectic here in France. And politically, too, with our Prime Minister practically self-couping earlier this week.
But hey, despite all these turpitudes, we still have water and electricity 24/7/365, and that’s a priceless luxury, isn’t it? So 15 pages of power outages on August 28th isn’t getting any better, I must say.
We’ve got diesel reserves for Saturday at 6:00 PM, because if you cut off the power at kickoff in Nairobi, you risk riots
