Mugabe language universally banned, Welcome Fresh Zimbabwe!

On the 18th of November 2017, I experienced instant maturity in Zimbabwean politics when Zimbabweans converged at Defence Force Solidarity rally in Harare. President Mugabe's language was banned and Comrade Mahiya interrupted more than six times, speakers who used Robert Mugabe-inherited foul language.
Since Independence, President Mugabe has been on the forefront teaching Zimbabweans divisive language. You would be guaranteed, on each day, during his reign, that he would say "Down with Zimbabweans". I do not need to be told about the origins of this antiprogress divisive language. I grew up in Zanla Rhodesia and "Pasi neMhandu" is one of my seminal vocabularies and it was fit for purpose during the war in 1977.
On the 17 of November 2017, I wrote an article titled "Dabengwa easier than Mnangagwa to lead the Transitional Authority." I raised the issue that if we fail to subject ourselves to rehabilitation, we are guaranteed to install Robert Mugabe after another Robert Mugabe, or even worse.
This "Pasi naTsvangirai, Pasi neMhandu, Pasi naDabengwa, PasiMDC, Pasi NePeople First Pasi naMugabe" it's all self-defeating vocabulary which a sane Zimbabwean must not say. To say down with Zimbabweans while you claim to be a Zimbabwean is treason.
President Mugabe and Emerson Mnangagwa, both hold ligaritarian Degrees. They should have rehabilitated us back on April 18 1980, to abandon war mentality and become patriotic Zimbabweans who are willing to die for each other.
You can't say down with a Zimbabwean and, at the same time lead Zimbabwe!
At the Defence-Force/War Veterans Solidarity Rally, Comrade Mahiya exceled by stopping speakers on the microphone, from saying down with a particular Zimbabwean.
I am keen to know Comrade Mahiya's level of education. Whatever it is, his education has produced the kind of a Zimbabwean I aspire for. There is nothing called a perfect person. But, there is something called a "near perfect person".
A "near perfect person" is one who always STRIVES TO LEARN GOOD TRAITS. The quintessentiality of education is to change the person who has it, from a lower rudimentary level, to a higher QUALITY Level.
There is no point in acquiring education and failing to put it to good use. Comrades Mugabe and Mnangagwa should have taught us many years ago to desist from hating each other as Zimbabweans. Thus, why I suggested that the people of Zimbabwe should do the unconventional thing and put Comrade Dabengwa to head the Transitional Authority. I have never heard Comrade Dabengwa saying "down with a Zimbabwean" He left his country as a youngster to go and fight for a country whose diverse people he loved. He would never turn around to do a treasonous act and say "Down with" any Zimbabwean after Independence.
Dabengwa sees Zimbabweans as a special entity which deserves respect. Leaders should avoid the implicit temptation of populist language which produces disgruntled citizens. We are Zimbabweans, we are better than implicit. We are a special country in the Universe among the cosmos, we are PROUD ZIMBABWEANS, we do not know anything anywhere which is better than us. We are an excellent Nation. We challenge anyone and anything anywhere within this galaxy, to show us why it thinks it is better than us. We will not perpetually let uneducatable people to teach our future generation hate language. We are humble to each other, we care, we teach we progress together in absolute unison. Anything that has tried to belittle us in the past perished with no indentation on this planet. Anything that is trying to belittle us even in the future, is guaranteed to end up sorry.
No one should tell us we are less than excellent. Our diverse Political affiliations are part of a good sign and evidence that we are excellent. We have a right to be here and that's why we occupy space as part of the elements of this Multiverse. We know the power of competition. Where there is competition there is progress and thus why we refused in 1980 to take the One Party State "Handiende" insanity.
I hope that Comrade Mahiya, be awarded the National Healing Ministry to Re-educate and enforce the banning of denigrative language in this brilliant country of intelligent people. We need to pump our children with confidence to explore this World knowing, chest high, that they have a right to be in this Universe.
Let's start by loving those Zimbabweans we are pushing out of power NOW. Let's teach them by example, what they failed to teach us.We do not wish to go down in History as a country which lynched its President like Italy, Romania, Libya or Iraq. Mugabe is the worst leader to have ruled our country since Mutota days. But, we are too educated to lynch him. Let's just remove him using any new methodology of our own invention which has never been done in any part of the World before. We are smart and educated. Our General has shown us his own innovative "COOLp". We have taught the World how to do a COOLp and whoever wants to use our invention, has to pay royalties.
Hats off General
Long live Zimbabwe.
We will soon FRESSTART our genius country.
