去年ドバイに行った時、アラブのガイドさんに聞いた話です。
「ドバイは今や日本より安全で、例えばカフェや公園にエルメスのバッグを置き忘れても盗られない」
なぜ？と聞いたら
「罰が重過ぎて、犯人にとって割に合わないから」
だって。

CNN: “Este é um imigrante sem documentos...”

Miller: “Eles estavam aqui ILEGALMENTE?”

CNN: “Quero que esta seja uma discussão de boa-fé...”

Miller: “Quando você usa uma linguagem feita para ocultar a verdade, isso NÃO é boa-fé. Um ESTRANGEIRO ILEGAL é um ESTRANGEIRO ILEGAL. Eles não são ‘imigrantes sem documentos’.”

CNN: “Stephen, estamos tentando humanizar o debate...”

Miller: “Humanizar? Então vamos humanizar o Código Penal também. O assaltante de banco passa a ser ‘especialista em retirada sem agendamento prévio’. O estelionatário vira ‘empreendedor de narrativas financeiras alternativas’. O cara que entra na sua casa sem convite é só um ‘visitante com documentação pendente’. Que tal?”

CNN: “Isso é uma analogia grosseira.”

Miller: “Grosseira é fingir que a lei federal some porque a redação da CNN inventou um eufemismo mais fofo. ‘Sem documentos’ soa como alguém que esqueceu a carteira no Uber. Não. É alguém que cruzou a fronteira sem autorização, ficou, e agora a imprensa trata o estatuto jurídico como se fosse uma questão de estilo de escrita.”

CNN: “Mas muitos contribuem para a economia...”

Miller: “Ah, o argumento clássico: o crime deixa de ser crime se a pessoa lava prato ou constrói telhado. Pelo mesmo critério, o contrabandista de cigarro também ‘contribui’, gera emprego no transporte. Quer que a gente chame ele de ‘empreendedor logístico informal’? A CNN topa?”

CNN: “Você está polarizando.”

Miller: “Não. Eu estou recusando o dicionário de marketing. Vocês mudam a palavra, depois acusam quem usa o termo legal de ser ‘desumano’. É o truque mais velho do livro: primeiro suaviza o vocabulário, depois declara vitória moral. Os Estados Unidos já cansaram desse teatro. Chamem o que é. Ou admitam que o objetivo nunca foi clareza — foi controle da narrativa.”

A matter for serious and collective concern.

SA’s national debt is now R6,1 Trillion. The debt was 26% of GDP in 2008.
It is now 77% of GDP.

Interest on this loan is now R1,2 Billion per day.

It is clear, the ANC does not care about this mountainous, unrepayable debt.

I heard someone say, satan got adam and eve to fix their eyes on one tree when god had already given them an entire garden, think about that. The enemy didn't have to convince them that they had nothing. He just had to make them forget everything that they already had. And he still, till this day, uses the same strategy. He gets us to focus on relationships we don't have, the job that we don't have, the opportunity we don't have, the healing we haven't seen yet. Meanwhile, we are blind to the countless prayers god has already answered. Gratitude isn't pretending you don't want more, it's refusing to let what you don't have make you forget the goodness of god that's already surrounding you.

Average price of a house in 1990: 249 ounces of Gold.

Average price of a house today: 93 ounces of Gold.

Housing didn’t become unaffordable.

The currency you get paid in became worthless.

Few understand this simple concept.

33 people are shot dead in South Africa every day. This week, the UN handed that country the gavel at its Arms Trade Treaty conference.

South Africa passed some of the strictest gun laws on earth. Citizens surrendered their guns under threat of prison. Then police tasked with destroying those guns sold them to street gangs.

More than 1,000 murders have been traced to those firearms, including hundreds of children.

The state took their guns and armed their killers.

And South Africa isn’t the cautionary tale at this conference. It’s presiding over it.

So I flew to Geneva and said it to their faces.

Full speech below.

[Moms 💖 investing @mommy_moneyza]

The post below perfectly describes South Africa:
The rich insulate themselves from government failure while Ramokgopa plans to give the poor more free electricity(now heading to 300kWh).

And the middle class?
As you correctly say Rapelang, they pay for every single unit. Plus VAT. Plus the service charges.

The middle class is shrinking because they’re the ones funding the biggest portion of everything:
the freebies,
the corruption,
the inefficiencies
… with stagnant wages and rising costs.

This system isn’t designed for the middle to climb and grow. It’s designed for the top to stay comfortable and the bottom to stay dependent & squeeze out the middle class.

[StephanZA @GamingGrifter]

The law states that no white man may be involved in order to do business with the state

A company can have 9 black owners but if there's even ONE white owners it's no longer eligible.

Someone explain to me how this isn't just pure racism

[Farai Mazhindu @FaraiMazhindu]

When the ANC assumed power in 1994, they inherited the most sophisticated economic engine on the African continent.

They were handed a deep-water port network, a highly complex rail system that efficiently moved freight from the interior to the coast, an integrated national power grid that generated some of the cheapest electricity in the world, and a professional, rule-bound civil service.

That system possessed underlying engineering and administrative principles that were globally competitive.

The historical task of the new government was simple: maintain the existing engineering standards, scale the capacity to include the black majority, and expand the productive tax base.

Instead, the ANC executed a 30 year masterclass in structural vandalism.

They introduced cadre deployment, incompetence, corruption, and political impunity, systematically replacing competent engineers, financial auditors, and institutional administrators with politically loyal party hacks.

The results are not ideological; they are physical.

It takes centuries of capital accumulation, spatial planning, and disciplined maintenance to build an interconnected civilization, but it takes only a few decades of deliberate neglect to destroy it.

You can see the rot in real-time.

The ultimate tragedy is that the liberation movement successfully decoupled its survival from the material reality of the country.

The ANC did not "decolonize" South Africa; they simply consumed its foundational capital.

They proved that an elite equipped with nothing but liberation slogans and an insatiable appetite for state contracts can liquidate 300 years of built infrastructure in just three decades, leaving the next generation to inherit a broken, unmanageable corpse.

Willemien Potgieter should have turned 18 this year. We would never know how she would've looked like at 18, what she would've done with her life, or that she may just have changed the world.

Instead, this little red-haired angel was butchered at the age of two.

On 1 December 2010, on the family farm Tweefontein near Lindley in the Free State, a gang of attackers descended on the Potgieter home. They forced two-year-old Willemien and her mother Wilna to watch as they tortured her father Attie to death. He was stabbed and lacerated 151 times with a garden fork, panga, knife and other tools. The pathologist said he was tortured to death and took many minutes to die. A garden fork was left sticking out of his throat.

Willemien, barefoot and covered in her father’s blood, tried to go to him. The savages picked the toddler up by her red hair, cut her head with a sharp instrument, and shot her execution-style through the back of the head.

Her mother Wilna was dragged through the house, hacked in the head, and executed with a gunshot to the neck.

They left a note at the gate, “We have killed them. We are coming back.”

This was pure, sadistic hatred against a White farming family. A two-year-old child was deliberately murdered so she could not identify the killers. Identify the killers? She was two?!

Six men were arrested. Some got life. Most of South Africa shrugged and moved on.

Today, in 2026, Willemien should be an 18-year-old young woman, starting her adult life, maybe studying, laughing with friends, living free on the land her parents worked. Instead her name is another entry in the endless list of White South African farm murder victims that the ANC, the media, and the world still pretend is “just crime.”

We will not forget her. We will not soften the details. We will not look away.

Rest in peace, little Willemien. You should have been here to blow out your 18 candles.

South Africa is a live demonstration of what democracy becomes once a ruling party learns to farm votes instead of earning them.

The ANC takes in billions through taxes and loans and delivers rot: dry taps, sewage running in the streets, a police force that cannot police, and state enterprises like Eskom, the post office, and the railways stripped to the bone. The productive middle class pays for all of it and gets nothing back, so they emigrate or slide into the classes below them. The tax base shrinks every year.

None of this threatens the party, because the party built a captive electorate. Keep people poor, dependent on a monthly grant, and badly schooled by state schools that fail them on purpose, then remind them each election that the grant disappears if they vote wrong. They hand out KFC at polling stations to seal it. The incompetence is the business model.

Democracy lets a coalition of the dependent loot a productive minority who can never outvote them. Hoppe told you where that ends. The only exits left are total collapse or scrapping the system that rewards the looting.

As a straight A, intense biology and chemistry undergraduate, I believed in evolution. There was so much data, so much information, so much theory.

I am now a 17 year, extremely well educated, highly accomplished and intellectually experienced medical doctor and scientist.

Evolution is like many things. On the surface, it has a luster. But deeper examination exposes pyrite.

Fool's gold.

[The Common Sense @CommonSense_ZA]

You will not see a better explanation of why the ANC lost the country than South Africa’s former education minister, Naledi Pandor, calling for the state to tear down a university.

Elon just played the ultimate UNO reverse again on censorship

For years, governments have tried to threaten 𝕏 through legal battles, fines, deliberately changing regulations, and demands to restrict speech in all sorts of ways

𝕏 fought back again and again and again

They used all kinds of different forces they had in every possible way to go after 𝕏... Like a full targeted attack

So when a government can legally force a platform to apply a filter, Elon just changed that game completely:

Make the censorship itself transparent

𝕏 is now open-sourcing the core system and making even the government-required restrictions very clearly visible

So if a government wants something censored, fine

Now the entire world gets to see who demanded it and how it was enforced

That is the UNO reverse.... What kind of filter would you put for this kind of transparency lol

Elon has always fought for free speech and pushed for extreme transparency. Now he’s making sure even government censorship can’t hide in the dark

[Farai Mazhindu @FaraiMazhindu]

Cyril Ramaphosa's sudden, hand-wringing panic over the continued erosion of South Africa's industrial base is the absolute peak of political gaslighting.

For the President to stand at a podium and declare manufacturing "fundamental to our economic sovereignty" while his own administration actively strangles the private sector is pure theater.

The industrial base isn't eroding because of external bad luck. It is being systematically dismantled by the ANC's own ideological obsessions: BBBEE and cadre deployment.

Ramaphosa laments a dying industrial base while forcing capital intensive, high risk manufacturing firms to navigate an oppressive maze of BBBEE compliance.

Foreign and domestic investors are not looking for compliance lectures; they are looking for economic viability.

When you prioritize skin color and political connections over global competitiveness, investors pack up and take their factories to Vietnam, India, or Mauritius.

You cannot have a manufacturing sector without electricity, rail, and ports. Ramaphosa's sacred cow, cadre deployment, has stuffed the boards of Transnet, Eskom, and Prasa with incompetent party loyalists instead of technocrats.

By turning state owned enterprises into patronage feeding troughs, his government has made it impossible for factories to reliably power their machinery or move their goods to port.

It is laughably hypocritical to talk about economic sovereignty when your state's economic policy has rendered the country completely dependent on Chinese loans, IMF bailouts, and Western green-energy handouts.

Local businesses are shutting down because the cost of doing business in South Africa, driven by rigid labor laws, state extortion, and broken infrastructure, is too high.

The ANC has successfully colonized the economy with red tape, ensuring that only politically connected elites survive while real entrepreneurs go under.

Ramaphosa has mastered the art of speaking like a concerned observer rather than the head of the executive.

He laments the crisis as if he didn't spend the last decade chairing the committee that oversaw the deployment of the very cadres who broke the state.

No amount of social compacting or high-level investment summits can undo the damage of a state policy framework designed to extract wealth rather than create it.

Manufacturing requires cheap electricity, functional railways, and regulatory certainty.

Ramaphosa's administration offers the exact opposite, erratic power, stalled trains, and aggressive racial engineering.

If the President truly cares about South Africa's industrial base, he needs to stop diagnosing the disease and look at the ideological poison his own party keeps feeding the patient.
