It was his time to die
Though I just realized his most famous character, Roy Batty, also died in a fictional 2019.

Wow! You'd have thought Mandela has risen again in judgement!

Ironically, the Kochs grew to hate the Trumpy monster they created. They were all proper small government Randiams (despite, ironically, coming to their wealth through inheritance) and hated the nationalism and anti-immigrant stuff. They understood that the two things are inherently contradictory.

Decent writer, only read one of her books though (Beloved). I watched the film which was fantastic. I think the only one of her books that I’ve read is The Bluest Eye which was really rather disturbing although still an excellent book. Years ago now, I was at school. I should probably read the rest.

Hahaha, touche. Although be fair, there's no shame in not knowing a nobody vs. not knowing a properly famous person.

Thing is, she's been dead a fortnight and I still don't know who she is. Or care.

In later life, a proven tyrant.
It eludes me completely why we should mourn a man who pretty much single-handedly turned The Breadbasket of Africa into a pauper nation whilst squirrelling away billions into his own coffers. What we in the UK today can learn from this is that Corbyn’s support of Mugabe was, at best, misplaced.
Moving on ...

Maybe we'll finally find out what 5 Brigade got up to in Matabeleland. Or not.

I doubt that his successor ("the crocodile") will be letting the UN to investigate any time soon.
