Luis Inacio "Lula" da Silva won. Democracy won. Authoritarianism lost. Right wing authoritarian imperialism lost. But we in South Africa must be vigilant. The wave of online disinformation attacks employed in Brazil for years is now here, in full force.

[African Community Notes @AfricanComNotes]

Lula had the support. His supporters (like all typical voters) assumed they didn't need to vote. That someone would do the voting for them. And they nearly lost the presidency.

Political parties should use Lula's supporters as an example of how not to do things.

Always cross check these job ads. Most of them are scams.

[Geoffrey York @geoffreyyork]

It's confusing. Trump claims there is a "genocide" in South Africa -- but he never lists it among the "shithouse countries" or the "terror-infested" countries.

[African Community Notes @AfricanComNotes]

Trump is still drafting his response. It's going to be a long week.

Likely one of the best one liners in Presidential history.

@ManUtd This small club. All it knows is celebrating Manchester City's guilty verdict instead of winning matches on the field.
You want backdoor titles?

The same Afrikaners who love the cheap labour provided by those other Africans? The same Afrikaners who label black South Africans as lazy and entitled? Madness indeed.

[👑Miss Andry⛔♂️ @ReignQueendom]

Seeing Afrikaners as your “brothers” more than other Africans is truly the most pathetic thing. Xenophobes suffer from self hate and an inferiority complex. That's the root of all this. Their “concerns” are just the cover story.

[African Community Notes @AfricanComNotes]

Name the African country. Name the European country. Weak leaders like you are part of the problem.

[African Community Notes @AfricanComNotes]

You are a genius.

@AMakuyana Did it really have to degenerate into this though? If two educated Zimbabweans can't respectfully debate, what hope do the general masses have? The level of intolerance amongst Zimbabweans is unmatched.

[African Community Notes @AfricanComNotes]

Okay. All the charity cases are black? Great.

[Mario Nawfal @MarioNawfal]

The difference between those who have everything and those with nothing in this world is heartbreaking 💔

@diphola_com That's an opportunistic argument. Did your people vote you to get into bed with an unstable party that will make governing nearly impossible with its weekly leadership changes?

[Anti-Capitalist🇵🇸🇮🇷🇻🇳🇨🇺🇿🇦🇾🇪🇪🇭 @Shelomohkeita]

She basically freestyled throughout.

Imagine getting into an accident at your own house?

[African Community Notes @AfricanComNotes]

@discussion4134 We know. You have been complaining about it for two years.

[African Community Notes @AfricanComNotes]

You are right Johnny. Making 100 000 black people drink sewage water is definitely not a big deal.
What value do black lives have anyway?

Nasiphi Moya is by far the most progressive mayor we’ve ever had. Her achievements n 2 years far exceed what others failed to achieve in more years. One scandal doesn’t automatically cancel her good work. Vote ActionSA on the 4th of November!

[African Community Notes @AfricanComNotes]

@discussion4134 Well, Johnny boy here thinks it's no big deal.
