@Mapentz@FaraiMazhindu That's the best part. I'm not staying. I think I've had enough of the promise of change that never arrives. If you were smart, you would recognise this to be true.
Sorry if facts hurt your feelings, and good luck hoping...
@MandlenkosiDl15@Nicole_Barlow1@MYANC As for calling me a racist.....you might have missed the memo, but that word has lost its power because idiots like you don't know what it means.
Go check the dictinary definition of the word, and then come tell me what part of my previous replies would classify as racist.
@Mapentz@FaraiMazhindu All of which you inherited from the Apartheid government. The ANC did not create any of the things you listed above.
Rule of Law? World-class education system? Really? Out of 193 countries, we rank 91st in education? The cops are more corrupt than the criminals.....
@MandlenkosiDl15@Nicole_Barlow1@MYANC A mine that hasn't been created is just a patch of dirt. Unless you use the land to generate wealth, it is worthless. Land does not create wealth, what you do with the land creates wealth. This is something the Bantu hasn't figured out yet, and probably never will.
I am often told that social media reflects only a small slice of South Africa as a whole. That said, if the sentiments expressed below this post, toward Geordin Hill-Lewis, and the DA more broadly, were ever to translate into wider public opinion, I would say the DA has cause for serious concern.
@Mapentz@FaraiMazhindu We are a failing African state... the collapse is just happening slowly. But make no mistake, we're heading in the same direction. Nothing new has been created, you've just started at a higher state that is taking longer to destroy. Slower collapse is not a sign of progress.
@MandlenkosiDl15@Nicole_Barlow1@MYANC That's your entire problem. Your mindset is based on "colonial theft". What did Whites steal? Give me an example of a single Black mine pre-colonisation? Show me a single profitable commercial farm pre-colonisation.
We didn't steal, we created from nothing.
@MandlenkosiDl15@Nicole_Barlow1@MYANC Jacob Zuma is today living his best life, after the single biggest fraud in SA history. There is a difference between arresting and punishing someone. But good job finding only 2 convictions in 32 years after almost R250bn of fraud, corruption and "fruitless expenditure".
@MandlenkosiDl15@Nicole_Barlow1@MYANC Hahahaha! You think the Commissions will (or ever has) achieved anything other than being a puppet show designed to distract uneducated masses?
@MandlenkosiDl15@Nicole_Barlow1@MYANC They won't be arrested because the majority are dead. Yep, that's how long ago Apartheid ended.
Genuine question... Why should corrupt Apartheid officials be arrested if not a single corrupt ANC official has been?
@Mapentz@FaraiMazhindu "SA hasn't completely collapsed". You say that as if it's an achievement.
Only a Black African will see slower decay than the rest of the continent as a victory. No ambition. No aspirations. Just happy with having nothing. Sigh.
@Edition01462931@FaraiMazhindu Did I ever say I was smart? I merely stated that book education does not create intelligence. Your IQ does not noticeably change with education. Similarly, books don't teach critical thinking either. You either have the ability to or not.
@Edition01462931@FaraiMazhindu "We"? Do you now collectively speak on behalf of all black SAns? How nice for you.
I assure you, the ANC still thinks they "defeated" Apartheid, and so does ever black SAn who has kept them in power long after they've proven their incapacity to govern.
@Edition01462931@FaraiMazhindu Sure there is. But Correlation and Causality are not the same, are they?
I'm willing to meet you at a testing center of your choice for an IQ test, then you and I can explore together our capacity for critical thinking.
@Edition01462931@FaraiMazhindu So they should have stayed in their homes, oppressed? With that mindset Apartheid would still be ongoing and you'd have to carry a pass after dark. Apartheid was a "crime against humanity", but Iran was just 30% being lied to? What a stupid comment....
@Edition01462931@FaraiMazhindu The Iranian regime's mistreatment of their people, and the people revolting against their mistreatment fueled the riots. Catch a wakeup
@Edition01462931@FaraiMazhindu Bwahahahahahahaha! You think education is a test of intelligence? You think intelligence allows you to think critically about anything?
You're obviously not remotely as intelligent as you think you are.
LOL
@Edition01462931@FaraiMazhindu Finally, you confuse education with an ability to think critically. Just like the EFF bragging about their BA Journalism degrees as if that qualifies them to run a government. Book knowledge does not teach logic nor critical thinking.
@Edition01462931@FaraiMazhindu Funny, the High Court earlier this week destroyed that argument about foreign airlines operating in SA. How is an airline that flys to SA any different than an internet company providing access to the web?
I wonder, does Musk care more about poor children than the govt?
