I’ll say this, some of you young dudes treat the humble OGs with so much disrespect, simply because they don’t beat their chests about their accomplishments. Ma-E is a legend. Don’t let his calm demeanour mislead you.
The “boring” dude y’all ignored is now somebody’s husband.
The “exciting” dude y’all chased is the reason y’all posting relationship memes at 2 a.m.
And now y’all asking where all the good men went…
They got picked by women who recognized their value before everybody else did. 🤷🏾♀️💯😂
After earning a point against the Czech Republic, all 26 South African players and staff members received jewelry worth more than $50,000 each through a collaboration with Icebox. 💎🔥
Koulibaly 🗣️: “ I will never forget that day. In the tunnel before the match, I shyly asked Leo if we could swap shirts later. He smiled gently and said ‘OK’.”
“But after the final whistle, the pitch was so crowded, and Leo quickly went inside. I went back to our dressing room feeling a bit sad, thinking: ‘He is a massive superstar, he probably just forgot about me’.”
“Suddenly, the door to our dressing room opened, and everyone went completely quiet. It was Messi. He walked straight up to me, handed me his shirt, gave me a warm hug, Then he smiled and walked away.”
“The greatest player in the world came all the way to our dressing room just to keep a simple promise to me. That is pure class.”
Let me educate you not with anger, but with truth. You assume South Africans lack exposure. You assume we believe other African countries are poor and undeveloped. That is not the case. We know the reality. We know Nigeria has oil. We know Ghana has gold. We know Kenya has tech. We know Botswana has diamonds. We know Zambia has copper. We know Zimbabwe has platinum and lithium. We know the DRC sits on $24 trillion in minerals. We know Africa is rich.
But here is what you do not understand, wealth beneath the ground does not translate to prosperity above it. You can have all the minerals in the world but if your leaders steal, your constitutions hostile towards humans rights, if your institutions are corrupt, if your people are divided by tribe, if your healthcare collapses, if your schools crumble, if your youth flee then you are poor. Not in resources. In governance. In accountability. In dignity.
We do not look down on Africa. We look at the mirror Africa refuses to face. We see our own flaws corruption, unemployment, crime and we fight them. We protest. We vote. We demand better. That is what makes us different. We do not run. We stay. We build. We hold our leaders accountable, even when it hurts.
You say we lack exposure. But we see you. We see your leaders flying overseas to get treated, some in our country to get medical treatment, while your children starve. We see your ports exporting raw minerals while your people have no jobs. We are not blind. We are not ignorant. We are honest.
The difference between South Africa and many other African countries is not wealth. It is the willingness to confront failure. We own ours. You run from yours. That is not a lack of exposure. That is a lack of accountability. And until you fix that, no mineral, no resource, no tweet will save you. Go home. Fix your house. Then talk to us about exposure.
History is political.
Wealth is political.
Power is political.
Influence is political.
Reach is political.
Narratives and propaganda are political.
The fact is, most of the things that affect society at scale are political.
If you cannot handle the political, you cannot affect society at scale.

Vladimir Putin: "Eğer Rusya, İsrail'in Gazze'de yaptıklarının sadece %10'unu yapmış olsaydı, NATO şu anda Moskova'nın kapısında olurdu."
Batı bize insan haklarının İsrail'in çıkarlarının sınırlarında başlayıp bittiğini öğretti."

They spent $75 billion fighting Iran, then another $300 billion rebuilding Iran, just to reopen the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the war started.
