We have become a nation of imagination and assumptions to carve pictures to tell stories of what might have happened (if). That "IF" will have a long-term devastating effect on our ability to hold the truth (or what we believe to be the truth).

The Miss Cleo theory is hard at work where investigative journalism and fact-finding took a back seat. This is one of the many issues I came across in recent times that I am getting off my chest. 

If you can't think for yourself, someone will tell you what to think. If you can't believe in yourself, someone will tell you what to believe. Food for thoughts.

Do you not think that you have made a significant contribution to this?

NO. In the past, I have contributed the same shit of rambling politics as most are doing at present. Now I am contributing hardcore materials that are hard to digest. If you could have digested it, you wouldn't have reason to question me.

What are you rambling about now? 😀

He just wake up and need his milk. 

Bottle of milk as he "chups, chups, chups" while babbling in his crib.

I am sure you realize that I do not desire to get into baby talks to my fellow members. It only serves to distract from the real issues.

Some people are still self-centered on how to take away attention and intrude where they do not belong. WTF. 

Self-centered person ...

When I said when the PPPites complain about PNC they should suffer 10 folds for being stupid, I was being polite. If the PPP loses, I will be celebrating the ignorance of its supporters.

. But the PNC is the worst.

And others will say that the PPP is the worst and intent in stirring up ethnic tensions.  This indicated by their current wailing about Haitians, the majority of whom leave Guyana as soon as they can arrange travel to Suriname.  If Jagdeo wants to find those Haitian "APNU supporters" he will have to travel to French Guiana or to the Suriname border with that country.

Why will a Haitian settle for APNU crumbs when FG offers them wages paid in euros?

As you said we mistrust each other and this leads to different analyses of the problem.

The reality is that the PNC started this shit between 1962 and 1992 with the way they shamelessly discriminated against the Indian masses. They are mostly the blame for the mistrust in Guyana.

Actually in 1992 the PPP discriminated massively against blacks when they won.  In 1957 the PPP campaigned an "apan jhat" and insulted black people in 1961 when they won that election.

So people were only looking at one side of the big jill?

The mistrust might have started in 1838, when indenture labourers first arrived to replace the slaves.

The labourers accepted less payment for similar jobs,  that was paid to the free slaves. This  create tensions between the groups.

This mistrust was partially  shown in the film 1838. 

Welcome back, Tola. If that's the case, when did any politician in modern history tried to change that? If I am talking about this today, it means that it benefited politicians to play a mind game with its supporters. Instead of blaming politicians, what should we say about the supporters who buy into the politicians thinking and beliefs? Are they brained washed or are they simply making a world of their own likeness by denying the truth?
