Let me educate you not with anger, but with truth. You assume South Africans lack exposure. You assume we believe other African countries are poor and undeveloped. That is not the case. We know the reality. We know Nigeria has oil. We know Ghana has gold. We know Kenya has tech. We know Botswana has diamonds. We know Zambia has copper. We know Zimbabwe has platinum and lithium. We know the DRC sits on $24 trillion in minerals. We know Africa is rich.
But here is what you do not understand, wealth beneath the ground does not translate to prosperity above it. You can have all the minerals in the world but if your leaders steal, your constitutions hostile towards humans rights, if your institutions are corrupt, if your people are divided by tribe, if your healthcare collapses, if your schools crumble, if your youth flee then you are poor. Not in resources. In governance. In accountability. In dignity.
We do not look down on Africa. We look at the mirror Africa refuses to face. We see our own flaws corruption, unemployment, crime and we fight them. We protest. We vote. We demand better. That is what makes us different. We do not run. We stay. We build. We hold our leaders accountable, even when it hurts.
You say we lack exposure. But we see you. We see your leaders flying overseas to get treated, some in our country to get medical treatment, while your children starve. We see your ports exporting raw minerals while your people have no jobs. We are not blind. We are not ignorant. We are honest.
The difference between South Africa and many other African countries is not wealth. It is the willingness to confront failure. We own ours. You run from yours. That is not a lack of exposure. That is a lack of accountability. And until you fix that, no mineral, no resource, no tweet will save you. Go home. Fix your house. Then talk to us about exposure.
I’m usually the person that tries to fix bonds and friendships, but lately I’ve been letting people stand on how they feel. We never have to talk again. That’s perfectly fine by me.
3 things i don’t like when talking to me. Don’t talk to me like I’m your child . Don’t talk to me like I’m suppose to be scared of you. And never try to talk to me like I’m stupid. I get HOT quick
hate that Bafana Bafana are having all these press conferences basically confirming that the “hate watches” from the rest of Africa have affected them. 😭 firstly, why are they even on social media? 😭
One minute we’re accused of worshipping white people, the next minute they complain about us using our African languages in storytelling. Which one is it?
🔴 Gwede Matasha says youth are unskilled & lazy for looking for jobs
🔴 Julius Malema says youth have no skills
🔴 Sindisiwe Chikunga says there were no bricklayers, plumbers, or welders before 1994
Black person, do you see your biggest enemy has black skin just like you???
