Every billionaire arrives carried by roads, ports, courts, cables, schools, hospitals, currency, public order and generations of collective labour. Then the story gets edited down to one heroic entrepreneur. Capitalism does not create alone. It hides the scaffold.

Why not? We pay taxes on almost everything in this country. My salary is taxed. Then I use that already-taxed salary to buy food and other goods, and I still have to pay VAT. Even my pension, which comes from income that was already taxed, gets taxed again.

So when people expect government to provide services and maintain infrastructure, why is that unreasonable? We contribute to the system at every turn. When you're being taxed from multiple angles throughout your life, it's only fair to expect those funds to be put to work for the people.

There’s this bizarre tendency by Zionists to claim that a literal cabinet minister does not represent Israel’s government, while actions by random Palestinians define the entire Palestinian nation. Funny how that works

@salomhimulayi Well done.

I've watched the documentary countless times, stories of ordinary people from all around the world. This Namibian OmuHimba lady's notion of happiness makes her enviable.

@ChilliKong 🤣🤣 you will learn

As Namibians we have always been inherently kind and empathetic people who despise the ill treatment of others…these type of acts do not depict who we are as a countr and we should never normalise or even entertain such acts.

It is funny that Germany, a country in Europe, is publicly standing with South Africa against Trump’s white-genocide lies, yet African leaders are behaving as if they have lost their minds and their voices, unable to simply back another African country under baseless attack from a deranged bully.

The very same African leaders then turn around and pretend to be pan-Africanists at public forums.
No wonder so many South Africans dismiss these fashion pan-Africanists, because when real solidarity is required, they vanish into silence while outsiders show the courage they lack.

I’ll never understand how a very certain group of people can cheer for anything that tries to harm South Africa, yet still choose to live here.

@_Eternity_R @ChilliKong Unplug the connector, cut that specific wiring harness at the connector, refit each wire to its correct position in the connector. Should take you a couple of hours at most and will cost you next to nothing.

Word of the day!

You don't owe people access to you just because you were close once.

You don't have to audition for friendship.
You don't have to beg for belonging.

You're too good for that!

I like weird people...
The black sheep. The odd ducks.
The eccentrics. The artists. The loners. The people who actually think for themselves. The kind of people whose morals are not swayed by groupthink. More often than not, these people have the most beautiful souls.
