@WonderMahlobo Od people are blunt; Their prefrontal cortex (impulse control) is thinning, their social clock is running out, and they've seen your problem 100 times before.
It's not rudeness—it's efficiency. They're cutting the BS to save their remaining time. Take the data, ignore the tone
@dme_363 The blueprint to beat South Africa? Don't press their keeper. Let Williams have the ball, stay organized, and wait.
Bafana passed sideways for 90 mins, refused to "go all out," and got sucker-punched by Eustaquio. Mokoena lost his runner. Game over. Caution killed them. 😤

@bab_hlabisa South Africa had 58% possession & 486 passes... but just 0.13 xG and 1 shot on target. 🇿🇦
Canada sat back, stayed compact, and hit with 12 shots (1.32 xG). Bafana played for penalties, got punished at 90+2. Possession means nothing without penetration. 🥶

@Malatjie_ From the outside, having multiple toddlers while homeless & fleeing xenophobia looks irrational. But behavioral ecology explains it: high-mortality environments trigger a "fast life history" strategy—when future certainty drops, reproduction accelerates to ensure at least one
@ThendoRalph Not long ago, TVs were a luxury only the elite could afford. Then Chinese manufacturing stepped in – and suddenly every home had one.
Same story with vehicles today. Affordable, reliable, innovative – and spreading fast.
You can complain, you can resist… but you can’t stop it.
@CFCMods Black Argentines didn't disappear—they were written out of history. 🇦🇷
In 1810, 30% of Buenos Aires was Black. By 1887, just 1.8%.
War & disease took some, but state-sponsored "whitening" and rigged censuses erased the rest.
@Solphendukaa Talent makes you a contender. A winning formula makes you a champion. 🇧🇷
Brazil sacrificed "jogo bonito" for pragmatism in '94 & '02—and ended their drought. SA has the raw skill, but without the structure, organisation, and "ugly" grit, potential stays just that.
@PolitlcsUK 🇨🇳 China: 1 leader. Xi Jinping rose through a 30+ year regional administrative pipeline. Real GDP grew by roughly 90% since 2013.
🇬🇧 UK: 6 Prime Ministers. Rapid political turnover accompanied by structural economic stagnation, with GDP up just ~15% in the same period.
@KhandaniM SA’s austerity paradox: closed borders to labour, but open wallets & SOE expertise exported abroad. Domestic growth stalls, dragging down the whole region. Fix: invest at home, allow labour mobility, align SOE skills with local infra. Stop exporting scarcity. 🇿🇦📉 #SouthAfrica
@KhandaniM@dailymaverick "You demand the rule of law be strictly applied to deport illegal foreigners? No exceptions. Good. Then remember that same strict standard applies when you throw accusations of 'underhand tactics' at SARB Governor Lesetja Kganyago. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander
