@Ndi_Muvenda_ He wants to open our boarders to drug dealers and murders. He also gave power to the white DA and called them better devil. He supported Pravin Gordan - a proponent of white capital
About half of all jobs in capitalist economies are considered pointless and unproductive, i.e., they are socially useless, according to the people who hold them.
David Graeber argues that this is by design. In his book, Bullshit Jobs: A Theory, Graeber posited that the ruling class believes that if ordinary people have both enough free time and material security, it would inevitably lead to a social revolution.
Graeber refers to the 1960s in the United States, when the abovementioned condition was met, albeit briefly. During these few years, housing, healthcare and higher education were affordable, workers’ unions were strong, and gains from production and technology actually translated to security for the majority.
As a result, people had time on their hands. They used this time to engage in something very dangerous: thinking.
According to Graeber, many young people were being relieved of the need to worry about survival, which allowed them to start asking questions and to organise to change the world. This was the ultimate nightmare of the ruling classes. So, they reacted by deliberately creating a world based on work discipline.
In 1930, John Maynard Keynes had predicted that by 2030, people would be working 15 hours a week. Graeber explains that the reason we didn’t get anywhere close to the 15-hour workweek predicted by Keynes is that the gains from productivity were diverted into creating administrative hierarchies.
Graeber wrote that “Rather than allowing a massive reduction of working hours to free the world’s population to pursue their own projects, pleasures, visions, and ideas, we have seen the ballooning not even so much of the ‘service’ sector as of the administrative sector…It’s as if someone were out there making up pointless jobs just for the sake of keeping us all working.”
Millions of people hold jobs in which they are being paid to do nothing, but for that very reason, they are kept under constant surveillance and control. This explains why people feel busy but feel it is unnecessary.
This is neoliberalism, which, to Graeber, was a project of political control, rather than an economic efficiency project, to keep people busy in a world that no longer needed their labour as much as it used to.
To Graeber, a population that depends on meaningless work for survival is easier to govern than one with time to reflect.
This is because surveillance-heavy, low-autonomy jobs are training grounds for obedience, where work becomes a moral credential without contributing meaningfully to anything.
This helps explain why unemployment is somehow stigmatised even when jobs are useless, overwork is celebrated even when it destroys health, and why automation is resisted even when it could reduce toil.
In summation, modern capitalism no longer needs most people’s labour, but it still needs their compliance, and that’s what work has become.
The captured South African judiciary is a joke.
They are now demanding “evidence” of complicity or entanglement in the factional politics of the ANC.
Meanwhile the evidence is sealed and locked up by the judiciary.
We demand the immediate release of the sealed CR17 documents.
@USEmbassySA#Abahambe We've heard enough of these racist Afrikaners. We've tolerated them since 1994, now they must pay for what they did to black people. They must leave south Africa while they still can. Once we start killing them, there will be no nowhere to hide.
Nelson Mandela was born in 1918. Winnie Mandela was born in 1936. That’s an 18-year gap.
Has the woke “grooming” community started calling him names and asking “what a 40-year old has in common with a 22-year old?”
@MickyJnr__ big teams like Wydad, Sundowns, Al Ahly want to win every match, they don't care that in football you draw, lose or win. Don't coach them if you are not ready to deliver what they want.
@koko_matshela The ANC should reconsider its approach to electing leaders, as the current system is not effective. Conferences can be influenced, and individuals can be manipulated. A sensitive and traditional province like KwaZulu-Natal deserves better leadership than what Duma offersq
@eNCA 😂😂😂 I feel the same way...I don't even know who the president of Lesotho is. People should try to be less sensitive; President Trump was just joking around.
@TheTruthPanther They should also be removed in Pretoria CBD, there's no order. Recalcitrant taxi drivers should also be punished and removed from Sammy Marks.
The Public Protector stated the President did not engage in paid work.
The counsel of the President states the President did engage in paid work but it was not in bad faith.

HOW TO SELECT YOUR BABY'S SEX.
Sperm cells are either X or Y. The Egg cell is always X. If X-Sperm cell meets the egg(X) the baby will be a Girl (XX). If Y-Sperm cell meets the egg(X), the baby will be a Boy (XY).
The Y-Sperm cells move fast but die fast (its lifespan is about 24hrs). X-Sperm cells move slowly but survive longer (up to 3-4days).
Therefore, if you have intercourse some days before ovulation, most of the Y-Sperm cells would have died leaving mostly X-Sperm cells to fertilized the egg
Here's a simple way to calculate your ovulation period.
1. From the first day you see the blood of your period.
2. Pick up a calendar and count 15 days including the first day of the blood stain.
3. Mark the 15th day with a pen.

@Abramjee How did he shoot three of them at the same time? Was it self-defence? We call on the police to arrest him with immediate effect. Had he shot one of them we'd understand, but three is highly questionable. Why did he shoot them while they were running away?
