Most underated, misunderstood leader in recent history.
"I don't care what the people are thinking, i ain't drunk i'm just drinking"
Most universally feared and hated by his own people would be more accurate, purely based on my few weeks there in the early 2,000s.

He's definitely not my kind of nagger. May he rot in hell, I say.
Among other things, I wanted to visit the grave of Cecil Rhodes.
I may add a bit more to this over the weekend when on a proper keyboard.

It's tragic, there was Stevie Wonder singing about "Peace has come to Zimbabwe" in 1980, while Mugabe was already getting ready for some ethic cleansing in Matabeleland. Too many leaders have sprung up who do a great job at achieving independence but then run the country into the ground because they only understand war and have no idea how to do anything useful when things calm down.

Around about the time he abolished the parliamentary quota for whites. And that's the sad thing; they weren't exactly abandoned and left to scrap it out. Far from it, they had as good a start as could be hoped for with many of the necessary skills, institutions and infrastructure already in place.

Was the place basically utopia when it was full of white farmers, or was it basically like the old South Africa but without the apartheid?

Mugabe may be dead but will there ever be justice for the Gukurahundi Massacre?
On a lighter note, those Marxists sure know how to successfully transition to low-carbon economies...
https://inkjournalism.org/1642/how-they ... e-dossier/While many reports about the killings existed in the public domain, this particular one had been a closely guarded secret due to allegations that the international community was complicit, particularly the UK.
We were told that somewhere in the dusty libraries of universities, or government institutions, was a report with details of extrajudicial killings of the Ndebele-speaking people by a Zimbabwean army acting on the command of the recently-deposed president Robert Mugabe.
The killings left as many as 20,000 dead between 1983 and 1987. Mugabe had deployed the North Korean-trained Fifth Brigade soldiers in the Matebeleland and Midlands areas of Zimbabwe in the early 1980s to quell dissident threats, an operation that resulted in the well-documented atrocities.
Many reports have been published about the atrocities of Gukurahundi but this is the first-ever dossier that provided victims’ names and accounts of the executions.
For three decades, few people knew about the existence of the dossier, and even fewer discussed it. That is, until Zimbabwe’s November 2017 coup d’état, when President Emmerson Mnangagwa, one of the chief enforcers of Mugabe’s regime, took power.
Apparently there were only two places where we could find it: In Mugabe’s office or somewhere in the United Kingdom. But where exactly in the UK?
Thanks to our source, we traced one copy of the dossier to a library at the University of Oxford; another copy was found at the University of Cambridge. The librarians took plenty of cajoling.
“What are you using this report for? It is not for public consumption,” said one reluctant librarian. When they finally allowed one of our team members to peruse the report, it was under strict conditions; he was not supposed to photocopy, and only to skim through it.
Under this predicament, a smart phone came in handy, and he managed to covertly take pictures of the more than 30-page report.
“The contents are chilling, I can’t believe this. … It’s shocking,” the reporter said about its content immediately after.
On a lighter note, those Marxists sure know how to successfully transition to low-carbon economies...

Tribal Trust Lands, basically homelands like SA, worst land, middle of nowhere, no resources
However, Rhodesians were less aggressive racists than Saffas, imho, but it's hard to generalise.
In 1971, some farmers in Cashel Valley (Eastern highlands) were paying their labourers $2/ month. Yes. TWO dollars a month.
Deliverance, inbred honkies that kept their kids locked up in the attic
I suppose heaven for the honkies, not so much fun for the blacks. Asians had it pretty good, iirc.
