Propaganda is the engine oiling and rolling the wheels of our politics. Forget about job creation, education, healthcare et cetera. During campaigns politicians promise us heaven and we get brainwashed. In the end we end up with scumbags as leaders. We lack the courage to admonish and point the folly of our leaders.
The inherent fear in us allows and permits them to run amok, raping and defiling us. If I was to raise a finger against Uhuru, Raila or Ruto, their online warriors would come for me, bare knuckle, however objective and balanced I care to be. It is a culture that doesn't reside with the top leaders, but permeates to the lower echelons of our politics, to muzzle critics.
