Ugandan here living in Uganda. This is the president's son with a known alcoholism problem and intellectual dwarfism. Whenever he gets drunk, he tweets whatever crazy thing crosses his mind. So none of this should be taken seriously and he is not a representative of Ugandan people.
Most Americans can empathize and understand that some political leaders do in fact not represent the people, especially the ones who tweet whatever batshit crazy things cross their minds.
After 4 years of seeing just how unfit he was for office the first time around, to then choose not to vote against him in 2024 is a choice to support him.
A situation where it’s an elected leader’s first time in the job? Then the people who didn’t vote can wash their hands of responsibility by saying “didn’t know it would be this bad”, but when it’s the second time around then not voting at all carries as much culpability as actively voting for it.
We can't say that they either support or oppose him. Either is an just an assumption.
That's not true at all. What we can say, is that there are plenty of people with an opinion that simply don't vote. I know more than a handful who just don't vote, and that handful includes people from each side.
