@Viccadonna_ @lebohstraatmate Men always understand everyone's anger against their oppressors until it's women, then the anger must be palatable.

Mind you. This video was not filmed in South Africa. 😤
I’m going to say it, again, there is a concerted and coordinated effort to incite, spread and encourage xenophobic rhetoric underway in South Africa. Ningaphaphami sebeliqedile lelizwe.

The quickest way to “get your spark back” is to literally light yourself on fire. You’ve got to burn baby. You’re depressed bc you’re not being insane enough. Double. Down. The world does not reward half ass. All in or out. You’re thinking too small. You’ve accepted your current reality as the only reality. Bullshit. You need to write a list of the most insane asks you could ever dream of. “I am a NYT best selling author. I am the founder of a Fortune 500 company. I paint for a living and I make a damn good living.” Ask and you shall receive. Embody and you become. Flip the fucking script. Your current ceiling is now the floor. Level up.

You need to burn.

sons are raised to experience only the comfort those choices created. They don’t see the woman who gave things up but they see the home that was maintained and the meals that appeared. A lot of men are not taught to see their mothers as women with dreams or ambitions.

if you spend all day at a fish market, you’ll leave smelling like fish, even if you never touched one

but spend your day in a perfume shop and you’ll carry the scent even if you didn’t buy anything, that’s how environment works. it rubs off, whether you realize it or not. stay around complainers and everything starts to look negative. stay around excuse makers and growth feels optional but get around people who move with purpose, you’ll feel it.

get around people who live in gratitude, you’ll start to see differently. the scent of your environment will always follow you.

⚠️ URGENT: NEW KIDNAPPING SCAM IN SOUTH AFRICA - PLEASE SHARE ⚠️*

Ladies, please be careful in town, taxi ranks, malls, and parking lots. There’s a new method kidnappers are using:

*How the scam works:*
1. *The approach*: A man in a car stops next to you. He calls you by a name or says “Hey, get in the car! We’ve been looking for you.”
2. If you refuse and say you don’t know him, he immediately switches tactics.
He turns to people around and says loud enough for everyone to hear:
_“Don’t worry guys, she’s my wife. She has amnesia / she’s mentally ill. She gets confused like this. I just need to get her home.”_
3. *Why it works*: People don’t want to interfere in “family problems” or with someone who “has a mental illness.” So they look away. That’s exactly what he’s counting on. That’s how he gets you into the car. That’s the strategy

*IF THIS HAPPENS TO YOU:*
- Do NOT get in the car for any reason.
- Be loud and specific*: Yell “*I DO NOT KNOW THIS MAN. THIS IS KIDNAPPING. PLEASE CALL THE POLICE AND HELP ME.*”
The word “KIDNAPPING” makes people react way faster than “I’m fine.”
- *Draw attention*: Drop your bags, sit on the ground, scream. Make it impossible for him to look normal.
- *Call for help*

*AS A MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC IF YOU SEE THIS HAPPENING:*
- Don’t assume it’s domestic. Don’t walk away, help the victim.

- Step in and ask the Scammer directly*: If they know the person they are trying to take, if they say yes, Ask the lady (victim) to whisper her name to you or the Lady(victim) to show you her ID…then Tell the scammer/kidnapper to tell you the name of that lady(victim) he’s trying to take.… if the scammer gets the name wrong it simply means he was trying to kidnap the lady….
- *Call 10111 or SAPS* right away and tell them you suspect a kidnapping.
- *Take details*: Car color, make, license plate, location, what the man looks like. Send to police and share to warn others.

Kidnappers are using our fear of “getting involved” and stigma around mental illness against us. Let’s not let it work.

*Please share this with your sisters, mothers, friends, coworkers, and WhatsApp groups.* One share could save a life.
Stay in groups where you can. Trust your gut. If something feels off, it probably is.

*Emergency numbers for Johannesburg:*

you use poor people for political purposes but then you bash them when they make decisions you don’t agree with😭😭

mhmm perhaps they’re people with agency who shouldn’t be infantilised but what do I know as a mimosa black🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

[. @naledimashishi]

I think we can agree that deliberately having a child you have no plan or means of taking care of isn’t a good idea w/o deciding an entire group of people shouldn’t be able to have them. Esp when access to reproductive healthcare is also influenced by class & urban/rural areas

I’ve noticed that whenever I’m going through something difficult, I don’t complain anymore. I just go quiet. Life stuns me into silence sana 😭

While on this , was very disappointed in how people were saying foreign women are birthing like rats during the 30th June saga.
It's so dehumanizing, and yall are so comfortable using these racist terms on other poor black people.

Posts like these are what actually make me know that you hate your mother. Like you fucking hate that woman.

Looking at this from a post-apartheid free black person perspective and not a apartheid remnants perspective is why you guys don't grasp why your views are sus.

"PoOr PeOpLe ShOuLdN't HaVe XyZ", sounds about white.

@linda_mot I don't understand how men can watch their own mothers going through that and still think, yah that sounds about the right way for women to live. Your own mother? You feel nothing, obona gole shap nje for her to endure that? Yho
