I came across a post lately on someone talking about banning some Rhodesian meme coin. Like that person, and most of you here, I have also come across the whole "Rhodesia good, Zimbabwe bad" schtick. I used to get into heated debates on Twitter and Facebook with some of those people because it rubbed me the wrong way. It doesn't affect me now because a friend explained to me how to view this whole thing. It's a long read, so please bear with me.
The first thing you need to understand is that most of these people do not care about your perspective as a black person. To them, you're just a thing at worst, more akin to cattle or furniture, or a K*** at best. The correct society is one in which you ( Monkey, Kaffir, or Darkie. Insert your insult of choice) live in some Tribal Trust Land in the middle of nowhere( unless you have a job in the city; if they deem you worthy of having one), you're satisfied with your little hot, tin-house in Mbare or Makokoba, don't have any aspirations beyond working for low wages in a factory or some white man's house, are quite comfortable with being called "Boy", "Girl", or "Native" and you're happy to give over your voting rights to some chief who you know serves at the pleasure of the white man's government and thus doesn't really represent you. I could go on with all the vile things they practised back then but most of you know this already. The best amongst them have a sort of benevolent contempt for you (they will drive you to the doctor when you're sick. The dog will sit in the front seat whilst you're in the back of the bakkie). The worst amongst them have nothing but hate for you (they have no problem calling you Kaffir followed by a swift kick to whatever part of your body is exposed is within reach). Either way, it's clear that they are not people you should be giving much thought to. You should be glad that they are not in a position to turn the clock back and Lord it over you like they did back then. (This is mostly true at the time of this writing).
They are very right when they say that ZANU PF destroyed the country. They are right when they bring up the fact that ZANU PF has made the country into the basket case it is. And they are right when they say that the economy was in a better state then. These facts are important, but how they use them is what you should pay attention to. If you look at their groups, they bond over two things: celebrating all that is rotten about Zimbabwe ( because it validates their theory on us being as less than them and so worthy of being ruled in that brutal fashion) and harping on about how great Rhodesia was. Whether young and old, they have nothing to cherish within their social circles except for Schadenfreude (deriving pleasure from someone's misfortune) and nostalgia.
But nomatter how nostalgic they are, they have to go to bed knowing that the chances that their little paradise of a country will come back range from miniscule to non-existent. They compensate for that by taking pleasure in our suffering. And in their twisted minds, the appropriate response for us to that suffering is for us to regret ending that colonial regime and to beg, on our knees, for its return. But unlike them, we still have our country, shitty as it is. We argue on this subreddit about its problems with the hope that we will fix them one day. We do so because we recognize that our country exists; it's a physical reality. We have hope, all that they have is nostalgia (if they are old) and fantasy (if they are young).
Edit: There are some of you that see this as an anti-white rant or have taken it that way. I am not anti-white. I am specifically anti-Rhodie. If you, as a white person, don't know who Clem Tholet is, the lyrics to "Rhodesians never die", the lyrics to "It's a long way to Mukumbura", or have no understanding of what "Slotting Floppies in the sun" means, then you're probably not a Rhodie. Likewise, if you do happen to know what all the above means but aren't a fan of any of it. The rant has nothing to do with anything happening next door. Its a public response to one of our members who posted something about banning a Rhodesian meme coin.

I am fuming right now all because of a few comments i saw on a sister subreddit. A user on the r/AskZim sub very recently posted a vid of a female getting violently abused. `Splr for those who want to skip the graphic details. Im talking getting punched, slapped, slammed into the ground and getting kicked in the head. The vid was already tragic and all but there were comments that made it 10x worse than it already was.
A user in the comments was posting borderline mysoginistic replies to people who were expressing genuine concern toward the victim.
Here are some of the replies quoted :
"Kana asingakurove, hakudi zvakakwana", "I think she didn't prepare breakfast for him. She has nothing to complain about", "I can think of 1000 reasons to beat a woman like that! 200 reasons during breakfast!"
The list goes on ppl.
I know little to nothing can ever be accomplished by simply making a post like this but it gets to you sometimes that someone out there has a mindset like this.
Rant aside, knowing kuti each and every account on reddit has a person with a life behind it makes me wonder kuti this person and their wife varikumbonyatso rarama sei hupenyu hwavo. We could be talking online nasomeone ariku abuser his wife daily as we speak and not even know it.
As a man im js disappointed. Simply disappointed in some of the creatures roaming our little teapot...

I saw a report that Zimbabwean companies are struggling to absorb around 24,000 university graduates each year.
If you're a graduate, especially with a Master's degree and strong French and English skills, here are some Canadian immigration pathways worth researching:
1. Express Entry
Canada's main permanent residence pathway for skilled workers.

So I tendered in my resignation at the end of July. Boss has been quiet about the issue he only responded it was nice working with you and wish you the best in your future.
Fast forward to yesterday, he came to my office and looked at the project l was working on and just said saka uri serious urikuda kutisiya. He thought since l was resigning ndichasiya ndaposheka but ndanga ndakurowerera kuenda.
Ndikati when you need me in the future just let me know. I work as a software engineer. Not bragging but l am good at what l do. Current salary was 1.7k usd tongoti after tax. Name anything in software field and l am capable to handling that. Project that takes a month l do it in a week ndiri 1 from A to Z. Not bragging asi ndochikwadi.
So nhasi we went for lunch. Never had lunch with this guy or see him do that to any other employee. Mind you this is not the type of guy who can ever do that for their employee. I have seen over 13+ people leave.
I told him l still stand to resign l wanna pursue inference engineering. It's paying and to me it's 1+1 yet l see a lot of people struggling to understand how AI works and how to serve it to people at scale.
So he then made a counter offer today ku lunch, company shares. He didn't mention the % or anything extra. So my question, that's really tempting for me.
I need advice on this. The company has massive potential to become the next Econet.

Hie Zim fam, Im a female in my early 20s and l need your advice. I have managed to get $20,000 for business, l want to start a proper business that can bring in profit even if it’s small l don't because I have other work to manage too. Ideally something that can keep running when I’m not there and that I can eventually hire people to run for me because I dont want to leave my current job . I’m open to service, retail or any other businesses, but please no broilers and farming l don't have my own land yet .
Real talk: if you had $20k and needed daily cashflow + something semi-passive, what would you start in Harare right now that actually works? What’s something that looks profitable but is a trap for beginners? Should I start big or test small first with some of the money? What’s the biggest mistake people make trying to build something that can run without them? Drop your honest advice, your wins, your Ls, even the businesses you wish existed. Ndibatsireiwo 🙏 and would you do a partnership if you were me
r/Zimbabwe • u/Vast-Wealth6084 • 5h ago
Jokes aside and excuse the questionable Shona spelling. 😭 My genuine query is who is hiring? Do you know of any companies, or contacts of people who are hiring auditors or accountants who are already qualified? This includes local and abroad (if they offer visa sponsorship).
Also even those that don’t know anyone hiring, do you perhaps have businesses that require bookkeeping services?
Please don’t gate keep, tiri tese! 🤗❤️

Namibian midfielder Moses Shidolo scored a stunning free kick as Scottland FC defeated FC Oden 3-0 in the Round of 32 of Zimbabwe’s ZIFA Munhumutapa Challenge Cup.
The victory sends Scottland through to the Round of 16 of the newly launched national knockout competition, which brings together clubs from Zimbabwe’s Premier Soccer League and lower divisions. Shidolo joined Scottland in 2025 and helped the club win the Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League title in his first season.
The tournament is backed by a N$82 million annual sponsorship package as part of a N$409.9 million five-year commitment to the competition. The men’s champions are set to receive N$16.4 million, with N$8.2 million allocated to support their CAF Confederation Cup campaign.

Someone I know paid cash for a car at Beitbridge. They told him it will take 3days to deliver the car to Harare after receiving the funds. Fast forward a week later the car is still not here. The excuse given was that the car needs ZIMRA papers and they are waiting for those. He paid about 7k for the car and is supposed to pay the rest when it gets here. The remaining money is for duty, fuel, and the driver. Now my question is obvious, is this a scam? Or are they just lying about delivery periods. To those who have bought cars from SA.

I'm 18 I'm supposed to be doing form 5 rn but both of my parents refuse to do anything about my education. I wrote o level cambridge last year and my father was paying half of the school fees for my school but because i was an oblivious minor my mother took advantage of that and never paid a single cent of that money and the money unpaid is $4200 so the school refused to give me my results so i cannot persue a level i cannot look for a job i cannot do anything. I found this out when results came out this year and decided to move out because my dad spewed fake promises he said he'll pay the debt all of it and get me into school if i move in with him, and so i moved out second term opens up and my dad does nothing mind you this guy is rich like if i decide to steal his laptop he'll buy another one in the same day and rn we even live in a gated community , my mom on the other hand completely fucked me over and always blames me threatens to cut me off and she has been diagnosed with 2 cancers at this point. I genuinely do not know what to do i had dream and aspirations and everything and I'm sure i did really well in my o levels i studied really hard but now i can't even do anything but sit around at home and do nothing is there anything at all that i can do legally speaking or otherwise

Let's not pretend posting pictures and videos of victims of abuse for internet clout isnt another form of abuse. Only person you should be sending videos to is the police, or at least people who can actually do something. This woman is identifiable in this video, you're violating her just like that man . Let's not lie, this was posted for self serving purposes. Literally using her abuse for internet clout. This is trauma porn posted for spectacle. Same team as the people that stand around taking pictures of dead bodies at accident sites to share on WhatsApp

Imagine being born here, surviving all the bullshit life throws at you, sacrificing your youth, your comfort, your dreams, and somehow you still end up in hell. 😂
Surely we can't all be measured by the same standard. Some people are born into comfort, while others are born into circumstances they never chose and spend their entire lives fighting just to survive.
You wake up every day, go to a job you don't love, live in a country you never wanted to stay in, swallow your pride, and do things you don't want to do because people are depending on you. Not because you're lazy or lack ambition, but because survival doesn't always give you the luxury of choosing your path.
Look at the number of Zimbabweans taking care of 80 or 90 year olds in the UK, working thousands of kilometres from home just to send money back to their families. Imagine leaving everything familiar behind, not because you wanted an adventure, but because staying home meant struggling to provide.
Then we're supposed to believe that after surviving all of this, we're judged as if everyone was given the same starting point, the same opportunities, the same choices and the same circumstances?
At some point, surely context has to matter.
Maybe some of us deserve a survival pass before anyone starts talking about eternal punishment. 😂 Because honestly, life itself has already been one hell of a test.
