Sedertdien het die wêreld egter baie verander. Die ANC, hul NDR is ou Russiese produkte, staatskaping 'n nuwe een. As die Russiese regering moet kies in 'n konflik tussen die ANC en Afrikaners, sal Rusland vir die ANC kies. Hul finansiële belange, byv. rond kernkrag, is te groot.

In Russiese koerant na die 2de Vryheidsoorlog: “..boere wat besluit het om die vryheid van die Vaderland met hul bloed te verdedig, sal altyd nader aan die hart van die Heilige Rusland wees as ...koue en selfsugtige Engeland. Deur ons diepe geloof in God, is die Boere ons broers”

@ConCaracal @DJEloff Ja, geluister, gehoor en gesien! Dit was 'n interessante debat. Ek dink julle doen (weekliks) goeie werk daar by @podlitiek om sterker burgerskap onder luisteraars te ontwikkel. Julle vul 'n gróót leemte.

Vanuit die perspektief van die gemeenskapslid: Die ideale van 'n gemeenskapslewe en vryheid kan slegs gekombineer word wanneer individue die mag (vryheid) het om by sekere gemeenskappe weg te breek en by ander aan te sluit. As gemeenskappe dit verhoed, is daar geen vryheid nie.

[Daniël Eloff @DJEloff]

Throughout history various institutions (churches, companies, associations) have been authoritarian and opposed to liberty.

Interestingly it's always collectivist groups that threaten freedom, and never the individual.

[Afrikaner Watch @AfrikanerWatch]

Dit lei tot die stelling dat gemeenskapslewe en vryheid gesamentlik slegs kan floreer in 'n Rynlandse-liberale samelewing. @ConCaracal @DJEloff

[Afrikaner Watch @AfrikanerWatch]

Vanuit die perspektief van gemeenskappe: gemeenskappe kan slegs bestaan as daar vryheid bestaan om van mekaar te verskil. As daar slegs een eenvormige gemeenskap mag wees (bv. in kommunistiese lande of soos by transformasie) is daar geen vryheid nie.

Fanie du Toit (@VFPlus) sê presies wat die ANC wil hoor: rasretoriek van Afrikaners. Hierdie aanhaling gaan lekker rol in die diplomatieke verkeer en bemoeilik die groei van internasionale steun vir Afrikaners.

Afrikaner-etnisiteit kan benadruk word, maar moenie ras insleep nie!

With the Renosterberg municipality collapsed and the 'ongoing' negotiations about the municipal status of Orania, a solution for the region can be found. In 2002 a proposal to merge parts of Renosterberg (Vanderkloof) with Orania was sent to the cabinet. https://t.co/UmWn3VcyPk

The embattled Renosterberg Local Municipality in the Northern Cape is in the process of being placed under administration. | @City_Press

@ThehungryLion3 1. Orania is not a political party. BLF is. 2 Orania is based on culture. BLF is based on race. 3. Black people are not prohibited to live in Orania. Some people of colour do live there. Whites are not allowed as members of BLF. https://t.co/qLQ9GFRU0J and https://t.co/INQLbaNb2q

@promise_992 The premier of the Northern Cape is Zamani Saul. The ANC have had a majority in the Northern Cape Provincial Legislature since 1994.

The oldest Afrikaans newspaper, @volksbladnuus, is going to disappear from kitchen tables & shop shelves. Printed Afrikaans daily newspapers won't be available anymore in large parts of the country, including some Afrikaans-majority parts of the Free State and the Northern Cape.

[Volksblad @volksbladnuus]

Media24 oorweeg dit om vyf tydskrifte en twee koerante te sluit, sy oorblywende maandelikse tydskrifte uit te kontrakteer en hul frekwensie te verminder, twee koerante net digitaal uit te gee en personeel in steundienste-afdelings te verminder. ➡️ https://t.co/m0qffKqtY9

@MashEyefan @CopWithAttitude @Besttrolleva @Kaepernick7 That video was shot in the village of the former Gemeente van die Verbondsvolk, a sect. The community existed between 1998 and 2006 in Owendale (Northern Cape). Louis Theroux visited the village in 2000. Now it's a normal multiracial South African village. https://t.co/PhXrNjOQDp

Something in the Orania debate on Twitter significantly changed. Before, the debate was in particular a stream of criticism and some usual suspects defending Orania. Now, much more people, from moderate Afrikaners to liberal black people, are defending the town's existence.

[Afrikaner Watch @AfrikanerWatch]

@Omang_Wena @WernerHuman18 @Lesufi After you got your building permit of the Orania municipality, yes, you can. https://t.co/8aHJ89SRCt

[Afrikaner Watch @AfrikanerWatch]

@SbuShawn No. It's fake news. https://t.co/QfcJm3LXJ7

[Afrikaner Watch @AfrikanerWatch]

@SizaMyAfrica No, not true. The Ora is not real money, but a 'local currency' based on a voucher system, like a shop voucher or a gift card.

[Afrikaner Watch @AfrikanerWatch]

In a country with the rule of law, the government only can intervene or forbid something if laws are being broken. Or politicians must change the law first. + Lesufi, the Northern Cape is not your jurisdiction... So why bring up Orania, when Kleinfontein is in your own backyard?

[Panyaza Lesufi @Lesufi]

This is money used in our country only by people who speak a certain language. They also have their own flag and laws. If you think we will keep quiet you are wrong. This madness must come to end. It’s a betrayal of our call for a truly non racial South Africa. #Orania

[Afrikaner Watch @AfrikanerWatch]

@Hlupza_Khomo @Eskom_SA Orania is also regularly hit by loadshedding. See for example this notice of Radio Orania. https://t.co/P2Fz7as0SL

[Afrikaner Watch @AfrikanerWatch]

@FrontAzania That would be an interesting, totally new fact. Can you please share the link to the video?

[Afrikaner Watch @AfrikanerWatch]

@ThesnaAston Fake news. Orania did not ask for money. It asked the government for a change of regulations. Orania wants a level 1 lockdown for the village. See: https://t.co/ambIkEk8cj

@rapanzoe Fake news. Orania did not ask for money. It asked for a change of regulations. Orania wants a level 1 lockdown for the village. See: https://t.co/ambIkEk8cj
