The South African middle class is detached from the daily realities and challenges that most other South Africans face.
They are preoccupied on Instagram with performative intellectualism and social media activism, while remaining largely disconnected from the lived experiences of ordinary people on the ground. Instead, they share Instagram stories among themselves, competing to see who can appear the smartest.
A Malawian illegal foreigner says that other Africans tell each other South Africa's laws are lax, which is why most of them come here, they get to do whatever they want. He says he's been caught at the border many times, yet he's still a free man. 😳😳😳
I spent all my life believing I would get an education so that one day I can sit in boardrooms and make decisions that would change people’s lives, little did I know that it would be the streets that help me to do that… and today as we fight to reclaim our country…
I’m reminded that in January of 2026, we spent TWO weeks outside Addington Primary School protesting for the rights of South African children to get an education in their own country because they had been excluded by their own government while accomodating children of foreigners! A pain I will never forget seeing our own children being made to spend their days at the beach just to pass time while other children were receiving an education. A clear sign that the system is broken, the system doesn’t care about a South African child and the amount of sympathy we are seeing now was not even in the least bit extended for the children of South Africa when they needed it, it is so sad!
Today is not about Today, it is about the Future of South Africa and as we take to the streets, let us remember that this is not an opportunity to destroy our country but it is an opportunity to press the RESET button, rebuild and allow the People of South Africa to be prioritised in their own country without feeling apologetic about it or fear being labelled as hateful… today is NOT ABOUT MIGRANTS but it is about the people of SOUTH AFRICA … Today is not the end but it’s only the beginning ✊🏻🇿🇦❤️ Until we win
Do you understand how crazy it is that South Africans are being judged for wanting foreigners to be in their country LEGALLY? How is this even a conversation???
South Africans are really lazy people.
The majority of them wake up at 4am to prepare for jobs where they work six or seven days a week, yet still don't earn enough to make ends meet. Very lazy.
Go to the taxi ranks before sunrise. You will find men loading commuters and women preparing to sell food, only to repeat it again the next day. Lazy people.
Walk into the banks. You will find employees wearing the bank's uniform, earning salaries that often cannot qualify them for a home loan from the very institution they work for. Talk about laziness.
Go to the supermarkets. You will find them stacking shelves with groceries they cannot afford to put into their own trolleys. Lazy.
Walk into clothing stores. You will find workers folding expensive clothes they cannot afford to buy themselves. Seven days a week. Lazy.
Stand at the warehouses. Watch people offloading trucks all day so another truck can take its place. Lazy.
Some of these "lazy" people grew up in villages where they walked kilometres to school, crossed rivers in the rain, studied by candlelight, graduated from university, and today stand at traffic lights holding up CVs because there are no jobs waiting for them. Lazy.
Others cannot afford to retire because electricity keeps rising, municipal bills keep increasing, and the cost of living keeps climbing faster than their pensions. Lazy.
Every day I see South Africans trying to build businesses. I see them posting their products, advertising their services, chasing customers, paying taxes, and fighting to survive. There never seems to be enough money to help them grow. But somehow, there is always enough money to fight them. These lazy People.
So yes...
South Africans are very lazy people.🙂
So lazy their leadership keeps expecting more from them while delivering less in return and wanting to die of old age in Parliamentary seats. What a lazy Nation I proudly belong to...🇿🇦
Dear South Africans.
After 30 June which is today:
- stop chatting with people in the middle of the streets with wearing sleeping gowns.
- stop public drinking.
Let’s all have order.
