Besigye is protesting against high commodity prices. Besigye can probably afford commodities even when their current prices triple. Why can't ordinary Ugandans, who are most affected, join him? Is it because they are not feeling the pinch or because they fear protesting?

When Sabiiti Joseph was still an active journalist, Ugandans hailed him as one of the most rational and critical against the regime. Now, his arguments only reflect his biases. Guys, I told you that human behaviour is determined by circumstances, capacity and desires.

In truth, Semujju Nganda does nothing exceptional. He only appears exceptional because most of the MPs are extremely low-brow and indifferent to what they are supposed to do. But Semujju would be a normal or even an average politician in a country of largely good legislators.

Samson Kasumba rates himself as a fine thinker or logician. Hypothesis: Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias whereby people with limited knowledge or competence in a given intellectual or social domain greatly overestimate their own knowledge or competence in that domain.

@KakwenzaRukira Rukirabashaija means the greatest man or Saabasajja. Okukira can mean to outweigh or outsmart or outwit. So, in this context, Rukirabachwezi means one who has outsmarted Bachwezi. I thought I had to explain.
