@Paballo_maseko_ It appears to be part of a broader agenda to establish an ethno-state in the Western Cape. At some point a mass uprising may be required to stop this madness, as creating an entity resembling Israel at Africa’s southern tip poses serious constitutional and social risks.
We’ve been covering settler violence against Palestinians in the West Bank for years.
But yesterday, we found ourselves on the menu.
A group of masked settlers beat our team and pummelled the 51 year old woman we were interviewing unconscious.
We’re all ok now - and Aida is out of the hospital - but this is just one incident among an unprecedented surge in settler violence across the West Bank.
Here’s out story on yesterday’s attack on Sunday Today on @NBCNews.

Wits holds the title of number 1 university in Africa. Somehow someone thinks something is terrible wrong with Wits.
AfriForum when I catch you!!! 😭
This is Harvard University, one of the best in the world...You see that red?? You see it patriot? Yes those "International" 28% are foreign nationals. Now...breath please.
Jancinta and phakela Mthakathi where are the jobs that you promised south Africans ? Foreigners have left .. where are the jobs ? ... instead things are getting worse ... companies are closing their businesses are going to our neighboring countries ... rooms are empty in our townships ... you taken food out of our mouths . ... while your funders made sure they paid you well ... so now what is the plan after the damaged you caused ? 🤔🤔🤔

@JacintaNgobese South Africans use work visas to build careers abroad. Australia granted 4,066(Skilled Employment) visas to South Africans in 2024–25. Skilled migration works both ways. We cannot demand doors stay open for South Africans abroad while pretending they should be slammed shut here.
I’ve been told the conservatives are complaining that I recently referred to Trump Advisor Laura Loomer as “jigsaw.” They say I crossed a line. Upon further reflection, I’ve decided to listen to their feedback and offer my sincerest apologies for absolutely nothing. I said what I said!
Jacinta isn't just misinformed, she's aggressively anti-intellectual. She doesn't understand the fundamental difference between a Master's degree and a PhD, let alone how academic appointments, international research grants, or university rankings work. Instead of opening a browser to learn basic higher education hiring standards or realizing that over 80% of Wits staff are South African, she simply weaponizes her own ignorance. Filtering a PDF for Nigerian surnames to trigger social media outrage isn't civic activism, it's the weaponization of illiteracy to feed a cheap, xenophobic narrative.
Calling her out as a black copy-paste of AfriForum is generous, at least AfriForum attempts to read a policy document before filing a lawsuit, whereas Jacinta's entire movement relies on a complete refusal to comprehend basic facts. 😭
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.
@KateMiddleburg@aviwe_badi I know the law and you haven't answered my question. You rely on Google engine search yet insult my intelligence. Show us the proof that WITS did not rely on "Critical Skill policy" to hire internationals. WITS remain number in Africa, maybe they know what they are doing!
The breakfast Club : People criticize you a lot. They say that you criticize capitalism but make millions of dollars streaming.
Hasan Piker: When I was broke I advocated for the poor and they said you are jealous of the wealthy. Now I'm financially successful and I say the exact same things and they say I'm a hypocrite. It's not about my financial circumstances. It's about what I'm saying.
Judaism is much farther from Christianity than Islam. Islam at least recognises Jesus Christ as “prophet” and Saviour. Judaism hates Jesus Christ and denies his sacredness at all. So the hatred for Muslims and total support for Judaism on American soil is a cynical fraud.
@SGN71783388@pieterkrielorg If you talking about Jacinta and her Hooligan army then you are stupid AF. Who said every South African must subscribe to Jacinta's Stupidity!
