Bring Down The Mountain

The Bring Down the Mountain Foundation aims to unite the people of South Africa in demolishing that terrible geographic embarrassment known as Table Mountain.

They call it "Table Mountain" but it doesn't look like either a table nor a mountain. #BringDownTheMountain #BDTM #TableMountain #CapeTown #TerribleMisnomer

The clouds on Table Mountain are like a table cloth, but like a wet table cloth that doesn't stop the surface from getting scratched and is easily blown away by the wind. It's like the worst and most useless table cloth imaginable. #TableMountain #CapeTown #BringDownTheMountain

Table Mountain has been looking shabby for the past thousand years or so. It's time the @WesternCapeGov retiled it. We recommend something in a matte Tuscan ochre. What do you think?

@TableMountainCa Would it still be worth it to walk up?

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

Once again, the EFF and the ANC want to rename Table Mountain "Winnie Madikizela-Mandela International Airport".

That'll be too confusing - it looks nothing like her.

But, then again, it doesn't look like a table or a mountain either, so 🤷‍♂️

@BrentLindeque 2020 is definitely messing with us. It gives us glimmer of hope but Table Mountain is still standing. That earthquake was for nothing.

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

We're sad to report that Table Mountain still stands despite the earthquake in Cape Town. This is proof that the rock of Table Mountain is frustratingly chewy, like an old winegum.

As can been seen in this video, Table Mountain isn't a suitable picnic spot.

It’s official! It’s snowing on Table Mountain! Our team shot this video of the frosty winterland on top of our African Wonder this morning. Stay warm everyone!

@Klipkop12 @LetsFreeTheCape Yes! Thank you! That's the spirit!

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

The ugliest flag of all time is probably that of @LetsFreeTheCape which makes me thinks they're being ironic about Cape Independence.

Why would they display the Cape's worst feature as an attempt to evoke Cape nationalism?

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

@CayForWater @LetsFreeTheCape Let's flatten that horizon together ✊⚒️

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

We fully support @FreetheWC in their goal of Cape secession, but only so long as the Republic of South Africa is forced to keep Table Mountain.

Geology Quiz Time! What kind of rock is most commonly found in Table Mountain?
A) Ignomeous
B) Sedentary
C) Metastatory

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

@Unathi_Kwaza You should see the mountain. It's also unfinished. It's time we demolished both of those embarrassments.

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

Mount Everest is a proper mountain worthy of respect. It's bigger than the moon and it kills people who hike on it. Although Table Mountain *does* have an impressive size-to-kill ratio, we all know it's not the mountain doing the work. It's the stabbings.

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

When tourists see Table Mountain they gloat, "Look at these people, they can't finish anything. All of *our* mountains have tops. Now let's go see the unfinished overpass in their city bowl."

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

@Klipkop12 @nytimes If they carved the faces out of the mountain then good on them. That's the dedication and ingenuity we admire.

Less of a mountain is a better mountain for all.

On the other hand, if they stuck the faces onto the mountain, then they're ruining the landscape.

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

The people will hear the truth. Or, at least, passionate versions of the truth.

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

@Macfarlane123 Thank you. I have a whiteboard.

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

@andrecolling Good job! Every little bit counts! Erosion by hiking. 💪

[Bring Down The Mountain @BDTMountain]

We WILL remove Table Mountain. The views will be unobstructed. Everyone has the right to look out onto the sea.
