Here is a response to some of the comments disputing that South Africa is a Christian country.
Someone said it is even evident in our national anthem. Talking about the part where it says โMorena boloka setshaba sa geshuโ
What do you think?
There was a time Natives bought meat from butcheries owned by Natives and could easily certify products as X or Y.
ANC comes into government destroys small holder farming in favour of huge feedlots leading to chains such as Shoprite dominating in townships with halaal and kosher

Before you vote, I want you to remember that this is the same ANC that called for soldiers to invade your homes during the aftermath of the civil unrest. The same ANC that misused funds that sought to ease the burden of COVID. The same ANC that presided over the killings in Marikana. The same ANC that makes noise during campaigning time but is silent every other time. The same ANC that has ministers sitting in Parliament since 1994. The same ANC that took you from one lockdown level to another because you trusted them so much and gave them your vote. The same ANC that has done nothing progressive for the past 2 decades. The same ANC that majors in promises and not plans. The same ANC that collapsed most if not all state owned enterprises. The same ANC that thought it was okay to close interprovincial travel and open up international flights because they brought money and you visiting another province for a funeral of a loved one was nothing to consider. The same ANC that recently moved you to Level 1 now as a political move, not for any other reason. The same ANC that has profited from your misguided belief and naivety. "It's better the devil we know than the one we don't know", oh is that why you keep complaining about the rising unemployment in your country? "All political parties are corrupt, so I'll just vote for the ANC", oh is that why the rich got richer and the poor got poorer in a time when the economy was in crisis? Is that why you're dissatisfied with the measly R350 you're receiving? "We are loyal to Mandela's ANC", oh is that the same ANC that does nothing when students are being killed by police during the fight for free education? Are you comfortable placing that X on the ballot paper for a man who died close to 10 years ago? Hahahah. Don't mind me, I'm just passing by. Have a nice day.
Disclaimer: I'm not saying VOTE FOR A, NOT B. I was just reminding you because it seems like we always forget when it's time to vote. โ
A lot of people think someone like me is over-reacting over the #Halaal certification topic since Muslims have been in this country for years. Some believe it is simply a food/item safety protocol that Muslims conduct to make sure that the food we eat is healthy and won't make us sick. That isn't what halaal certification is. So, am going to do a little summary of its main components.
1. Halaal means anything that is considered permissable in Islam as per the Quaran and Hadiths. It is a religious requirement, a component of Sharia Law which is the legal component of the Islamic religion. As a Muslim you can't engage with non halaal/haraam items be they food, music, certain books, clothing, household items etc. Sharia law and therefore halaal requirements shouldn't impact non Muslims. That's not islamaphobic or disrespectful to muslims, it is our religious right as non Muslims which the constitution protects.
2. Halaal entails the slashing of an animal's neck whilst it is alive and leaving them to bleed out. The person tasked to do this must be muslim as he must recite a prayer which includes Allah Akbar as they face Mecca. This is a problem if you belong to a different faith because now you are complicit in idol worship without knowing, which again, is a violation of non muslim religious rights. Other items must not have a trace of alcohol or pork derivative which is why 60-80% of items on the shelves of Shoprite/ Checkers, Woolies etc end up having to be Halaal acredited because if halaal foods come in contact with non halaal items they become contaminated. Meaning your toilet paper, juice, and even water must be subjected to these Muslim religious rituals without your consent.
3. Halaal isn't a standard for food safety in scientific terms which some think it is. It's not checking for bacteria or viruses or germs. It is simply making sure that pork and alcohol aren't ingredients or have not come into contact with the item or any ingredient that makes the item, therefore if you wanted bacon you will get macon etc. For food standards we have ISO standards that are used world wide and are scientific and make sure that our food and the household items we use are safe. That doesn't require a prayer to Allah facing Mecca. So, why make it a standard in a majority Christian country?
4. Halaal isn't free. The retailers pay for that certification and the cost is passed down to us the consumers. In a country with high unemployment and food insecurity it is curious as to why 98.8% of us non Muslims are subjected to this Halaal tax that we didn't ask for and frankly can't afford.
I don't care if Muslims want Halaal. It is their religious right protected by the constitution. I care however that 80% of the things I buy with my money is offered in a religious ritual to a god I don't prescribe to. I care that I am basically taxed to have Halaal shoved down my throat when I never asked for it nor need it. Non muslims, who are the majority must also be respected by Muslims and retailers. We are after all the majority and therefore the lionshare of your domestic revenue stream.
Western countries deserve the migration problems they are facing. They helped create and promote the global policies and agendas driving these challenges. We didnโt, so why must we inherit the consequences?
Our problem is that we have weak leaders who seem more interested in handshakes, photo ops and collecting passport stamps than protecting our national interests. Apparently, a good photo with world leaders is now a substitute for good leadership!

Men, stay away from 35+ single women. The red flag is not simply her age. It is the bitterness, regret, baggage and consequences that can come from years of bad choices. Some are not looking for love. They are looking for a man to rescue them from the life they created.

Helen Zille wants illegal foreigners legalized. Leon Schreiber & Home Affairs deliberately botched the constitutional court case for the NGOs to win so they can push this DA mandate๐๐ฝ of legalizing all the illegal foreigners. You don't legalize illegals, you deported them๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ฎ
JJ Tabane:
As Joburg Mayor would you support immigrant deportation
Helen Zille:
1. If they are legal, the DA will protect them.
2. If they are illegal, they must be legalised, Leon Schreiber is fixing the process.
South Africaโs economy would collapse instantly if sanctioned. We have zero capacity to be self-sustaining.
Our industrial base has been eroded and what is left of it remains in private hands.
The State has no means to produce anything, or even support local manufacturing, that can keep the economy going without relying heavily on imports.
Countries like Russia, North Korea and Iran survive in spite of heavy sanctions because the State is a key role player in the economy.
In this country, weโre led by fools who keep surrendering strategic state assets while making enemies with powerful countries. Weโre entering a gun fight with bare-hands.

Besides, why would you go to a country where you don't even understand their language and culture? Immigrants go to their colonizers [๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป, ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐บ๐ฎ๐ป๐, ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ, ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ด๐ถ๐๐บ, ๐ฃ๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐๐ด๐ฎ๐น, ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป, ๐ฒ๐๐ฐ]. There are few to none immigrants in Eastern Europe because they didn't colonize nations there.
Hence Paris and London is full of Africans, Caribbeans and South Asians *India*, West Asia. They colonized these nations. Stole from them, treated them as slaves, imposed their languages. Left these nations in shambles.
This is the TRUTH no one wants to talk about....
