The Nowak case clearly highlights that we need to stop treating racism as an ~infinite evil, not because Nowak was racist (no evidence of this) but because any time you create a social superweapon like accusations of racism are now, it’ll be misused horribly.
What is racism? Ask 10 people and you’ll get 12 opinions. Historically, it meant someone who treats people badly in interpersonal interactions because of their race. Which is just, like, kinda annoying and slightly boorish. It’s not the apocalypse. There are many personal traits that are equally or more annoying.
Now the definition has been ludicrously expanded to include a bunch of things even less objectionable than that, including belief in very plausible scientific claims and policy preferences that were near-universal for almost all of human history.
Racism just isn’t a big deal. We have to take it off its pedestal. If Nowak had said something racist, it would morally change exactly nothing about the horror of what happened to him. He didn’t, but I feel over-focusing on that distracts from the fact that it wouldn’t matter if he had.
Murder is worse than racism. Hell, shoplifting is worse than racism. Enough. Who cares.
Come on, @Our_DA@jsteenhuisen@geordinhl . This is getting embarrassing.
You’re screaming about 28,000 “missing” parolees like Pieter Groenewald personally opened the prison gates yesterday and waved them goodbye. But even your beloved AmaBhungane report, the one you’re waving around, admits that over 15,860 of them are “archived absconders” from 1991 to 2004. That’s the ANC’s golden era of cadre deployment and total system collapse.
Groenewald’s been in the job for less than two years, cleaning up a department that was a dumpster fire long before he got there. Yet here you are, slapping his face on dramatic graphics and demanding he be summoned like a criminal, while your own ministers get gentle handshakes for their disasters.
We all see the hypocrisy and selective outrage, pure GNU infighting as you’re pretending to be concerned about safety. South Africans aren’t stupid. We can read the fine print. If you’re going to play this game, at least be consistent and own the decades of rot you helped inherit.
Stop the cheap shots and fix the damn system together, or the voters will fix you at the next election.

First John Steenhuisen attacked previous previous Freedom Front Plus leader Dr Pieter Mulder blaming him for Foot and Mouth disease. Now Geordin Hill-Lewis blames the previous Freedom Front Plus leader Dr Pieter Groenewald for parolees who absconded since 1991. Know your DA. The ANC must be very proud !!
@Our_DA and @geordinhl are running scared! Maybe they should get their facts straight and concentrate on their own ministers that are failing the farmers and other communities.
🚨Nearly 28,000 parolees are untraceable. Gone. Missing. Many of these are violent criminals, now walking free, putting the public at risk.
Pieter Groenewald must not hide behind excuses.
He must act today to find these parolees, bring them back before the law, and hold every official accountable who allowed them to disappear.
The DA will not accept a system where criminals roam free and communities are left to pay the price.
A DA-led government will implement electronic monitoring, proper supervision, and real accountability.
Kan Min John Steenhuizen en sy department verantwoordelik gehou word vir die reuse verliese wat die boeregemeenskap gely het? Was dit direkte nalatigheid & magspel of bloot onkundige optrede wat nie in belang van die landbougemeenskap geneem is? @TheoDJager@Sakeliga@vslandbou
Dis ’n wen!!!!
‘n NGV-pilaar val in Grondwethof.
Solidariteit het pas die regering se gewraakte planne om vir dokters voor te skryf waar hulle mag praktiseer, in die Grondwethof, gestuit.
In ‘n eenparige uitspraak het die regters van die Grondwethof artikel 36 - 40 van die Gesondheidswet ongrondwetlik verklaar. Die regering moet Solidariteit se kostes dra.
’n Kernpilaar van die regering se beplande Nasionale Gesondheidsversekering (NGV) is só in die Grondwethof omvergewerp.
Die hart van die NGV is sentrale beplanning. Die regering wil besluit waarheen en na watter dokter jy mag gaan.
Sentraal daartoe is die regering se plan om vir dokters voor te skryf waar hulle mag praktiseer.
Die regering wil bepaal waar daar ’n behoefte is, en dan wil hulle aan ’n dokter ’n sertifikaat uitreik wat bepaal waar hy/sy mag praktiseer.
Dit is hierdie planne van die regering om vir dokters voor te skryf waar hulle mag praktiseer, wat Solidariteit suksesvol ongrondwetlik laat verklaar het.
Die stryd teen die NGV is nie verby nie, maar hierdie is ’n strategiese oorwinning!
Baie trots op Solidariteit se regs- en navorsingspan!!!
@theo_venter@MulderCorn@waynesussman No need to torture the stats, it's black on white and easy to understand. As it was in Ward 57 in Tshwane. Maybe the DA needs to torture this one a bit. Sure they can find a way to change the perception of decline into one of growth!
@drleandi_E@waynesussman Not exactly. The same happened in Tshwane Ward 57 a couple of months ago. It is starting to become a pattern where these two parties are on the ballot in a by-elections.
En so teiken ActionSA/ANC/EFF in Tshwane die mense. ActionSA met Mashaba aan die spits se herposisionering vir meer stemme na die rampspoedige 2024 verkiesing is voltooi en hulle is nou totaal ingeburger in die ANC/EFF nes.
Harlequins is the 3rd oldest rugby club in SA. Town Council gave our club 28 days to restore it to farm land again - like it was before 1902 - because it is zoned for agriculture. No political party has taken responsibility yet . https://t.co/3qs2RhVM4t
#NewDAJhbChair Luyolo Mphiti who accused Elana Barkhuizen of racism in Schweizer-Reneke in 2019 when he said “ “This is clearly an act of racism and must be condemned in the strongest terms.” Elected new DA chair in Jhb Region. She was cleared of racism by the SAHRC
🚨🇬🇧SHOCK WIN FOR REFORM PARTY: Is This the Beginning of a Political STORM for Labour and Tories? In a stunning turn of events, the Reform Party has just secured a major victory, sending shockwaves through the political landscape. As Labour and the Tories scramble to respond, questions are being raised about the future of British politics. Could this be the start of a political storm that shakes up both parties for good?
Recent polling data reveals one of the most striking political paradoxes in Johannesburg. 84% of voters say the DA would improve service delivery where they live. Yet only 39% say they would actually vote for the DA.
Among black voters, 80% believe the DA would deliver better services, but just 25% intend to back the party. The DA has won the argument on delivery. It is still losing the argument on trust.
