Me I don’t understand. When the economy grows say by 1%, it is said to be the results of the GNU, but when it is at 0,2%, it is the ANC? What logic is used here? But also, isn’t anything less than 5% mediocre taking into account population growth and new entrants to the market?

@WandileSihlobo What is the reason for the decline?

I have owned the Vhavenda domain for sometime without knowing what to do with it.

I finally decided over the weekend to use it to tell the history of the Venda people.

If you have any material or corrections I should make, please reach out

🚨 93-year-old Dr Katrina Esau is the LAST fluent speaker of South Africa’s ancient 25,000-year-old N|uu language.

Based in Upington with her granddaughter Claudia Snyman, she needs AI developers & linguists to digitize her 45 unique click sounds into a living voice model before it’s too late.

Let’s connect tech giants with her school to safeguard this indigenous treasure we can train AI to keep this language.

Let me re-emphasise again... Our people are so corrupt they do all sorts of crimes, and when systems fail and things collapse, they blame politicians... Where is a politician involved in this chain of events here?

[Noxolo Madonsela @Noxxcee]

What an absurdly indulgent headline. So if the DA loses Cape Town, it won’t be because voters are unhappy with its service delivery, but because it just didn’t campaign hard enough? Interesting.

[MR. HiMSELF @pushinM15]

A judge who spent over a decade on South Africa's highest court just named the real crisis, not load shedding, not politics, but unemployment, poverty and GBV, all rooted in the same wound, inequality that strips people of dignity, the same denial apartheid was built on...

[MaBankBook @Sandilebanks]

@Khels14 You’re talking out your ass. Then again, blue tick means you’re trying to settle your bills.

[Noxolo Madonsela @Noxxcee]

Okay, let me get this straight: when electricity, water or housing fails, it is the ANC government’s failure. But when electricity is supplied, water is delivered and houses are built, suddenly the same government cannot take credit? So failure belongs to the ANC, but delivery belongs to nobody? Convenient.

Only people who are up at 5am in Cape Town are Black and Coloured people. You genuinely only see White people at 9am I get so shocked by this till this day.

South Africans from up North, especially JHB. Please, for the love of God, stop work related communications on your mobile phones with Capetonians.

If it's anything before 10 AM on a weekday, you are disturbing us. We're going through a morning routine and you're not part of it. Waking us up with messages at 5H30 just because you might forget is a condition you need therapy for.

If it's after 2PM most of the day is gone and we can only help you again tomorrow.

If its anything on a FRI or SAT we wont reply. If it's a SUN you need Jesus in your life.

We also don't really like Mondays, which we probably have in common, which only leaves you with TUE, WED and THU.

FYI THU are known to us as little FRI so we might hit a beer with the boys early.

TUE and WED bru.
That's what we got for you.
It isn't that hard.

[observent @aviwe_badi]

Being in Zanzibar shifted something in me in a way I’m still struggling to explain.

So many Tanzanians asked us about Sundowns and told us it was their favourite South African team. Some had read Long Walk to Freedom. They spoke to us about the Solomon Mahlangu Freedom College and about South Africa with so much warmth and familiarity.

It reminded me that our history has never existed in isolation from the rest of Africa. Other African countries sheltered, educated and supported South Africans during some of the darkest periods of apartheid. Our cultures, politics and liberation histories are far more intertwined than the xenophobic discourse back home would have us believe.

Then you come home and watch movements build political relevance by teaching South Africans to view other Africans with suspicion and resentment.

Zanzibar genuinely changed my perspective. I have no patience left for that kind of politics. The politics of xenophobia, scapegoating and anti African hatred must die.
