Here’s a fun fact as Women’s Month draws to a close: Lillian Ngoyi & Helen Joseph are buried in the same plot. They’d made a pact that they would continue fighting for women’s liberation in every lifetime until said liberation is achieved.

Racists are so dumb. Apartheid was servicing one group in the entire country and using the other groups as the slave labour for that purpose. Even if the ANC was perfect they could not undo that damage in the same amount of damage. The ANC sucks but this point is dumb and racist.

I keep making this observation of the utter depravity that has begun surfacing in SA. Comparing a system built on subjugation with one built on democracy & measuring them as equals with no shame...you're a terrible person to a core. Cause this isnt even a thought capacity issue

The afrophobia in KZN is at a tipping point now. I’m afraid our society might just be at a point of no return.

I just saw a video of children chanting xenophobic slurs with adults.

It’s incredibly disheartening to witness this degeneracy in real time.

People who act like the US government was completely just and moral before trump came in like the big bad wolf and tore it all down pmo so much
No, Obama was not the wholesome chungus president you say he is. The American death machine has been alive for longer than you have.

“separate development” “ethnic universities” you see what i meant when i said afophobia will lead to ethnonationalism? not to mention this is the Bantustan paradigm

[Nolwazi Tusini @NolwAzi_Tusini]

The idea that there are universities inside RSA that don’t belong to SAns😭
The idea that the best thing for black SAns is tribalist, mono-ethnic universities as if we’re still in Apartheid homelands😭
The colonised mind always runs to the master for instructions😭

The irony that she wants to learn how to kick out foreigners whom she accuses of invading us and seeking to take over, from the direct descendents of foreign invaders who came in and took over and who continue to carry the baton of their ancestors

[bojack whoresman @LebohangMosia_]

give bigotry enough room to breathe and eventually, you find yourself making space for the very thing you claimed you were never defending.

Yes, I get that, in certain instances, private companies may perform a task better than the public sector.

But there's an inescapable fundamental: private sector has a PROFIT MOTIVE.

Improve the public service, but don't make a profit from water, electricity, health, education.

And this is what Geordin Hill-Lewis says he wants for the whole of South Africa; 3rd party private companies "helping" to provide municipal services to citizens.

South Africa, you in danger gurl.

[Dr. Hood Possum @DrLungi_Mashele]

You can’t solve for a lack of economic growth using privatisation.

The services you farm out to the private sector, will still need the very people not paying municipalities to pay for them.

Private sector will want their risk rewarded through higher tariffs & gov guarantees 🤷🏾‍♀️

[Wiesie de Kock @wiesiede]

You all realise that once the DA has privatised all municipal services, the data centres will get water first because they will pay.

[🍃°La Nkosi °🍃 @La_Nkosi_]

The DA openly supporting the idea of the business unit taking over? Yeah no, this is not a drill. Those smurfs are not here to improve anything…they are here to dismantle, privatise and reconfigure what they can get their hands on

A new wave of violence by Israeli settlers and soldiers in the occupied West Bank is part of a larger goal of "ethnically cleansing Palestinians," says journalist Mariam Barghouti.

[Issa Amro عيسى عمرو 🇵🇸 @Issaamro]

This is not a random or isolated attack. It reflects a broader pattern of conduct by Israeli soldiers, who act as a militia in the occupied West Bank.

Independence and reparations for the Puerto Rican people is a necessary position in the larger fight to dismantle U.S. empire. Same goes for Guam, Hawai’i, American Samoa, and all other lands and peoples occupied by the U.S. colonial project.
