Still my favourite description of the relationship between women and patriarchy / women as AGENTS of patriarchy.

[Inunu Engafi @lebomashile]

Brain washing ya patriarchy. Kubi. Vele women who beat up the other woman have no desire to leave their husbands, & they know their husbands won’t change, so they take out their rage on their husband’s lovers.

[Mbekezeli @MbekezeliMB]

If this is real, it’s a disgusting indictment on you @SAReserveBank.
SA has such talented designers and chose an AI bot for our currency? Shame on you.

@SongezoZibi It’s time to get vocational education right in the battle against youth unemployment (Part two)" https://t.co/EXX8P2L2B9

[karma is a feminist @shabash]

This sounds simplistic @SongezoZibi.
The need for more comprehensive tracer data on graduates across the entire PSET sector has been emphasized for past +15 years. So this is not new.
But your comments end up doing what Allais et al have been cautioning against over the years.

“Taxpayer funds and state bursaries (such as NSFAS) risk financing qualifications that do not align with economic demand. This structural disconnect severely harms the economy by misallocating capital into training sectors with structural labour surpluses instead of filling critical national skill shortages, which depresses productivity as industries suffer from persistent skill gaps while qualified youth remain economically inactive.”
DHET admits it cannot track which degrees lead to graduate unemployment https://t.co/XtZEhZBZhe

@SongezoZibi as well as for developing qualifications, that are at best appropriate for long term planning — by which time the skills identified in the Occupations in High Demand list may no longer be needed..."

[Wits University @WitsUniversity]

Wits is aware of fake news being shared regarding the number of international staff employed at the University. The total number of international staff is in fact 9%. Pls refrain from sharing misinformation which seeks to sow division in our community and our country.

Our approach to internationalisation does not occur at the expense of transformation or the development and employment of South African talent. Our objective is therefore neither localisation nor internationalisation in isolation, but a strategically balanced institution that develops South African leadership while drawing on the very best expertise available globally, where necessary.

[Mbekezeli @MbekezeliMB]

Jacinta and her bot army have now descended on Wits and trying to bring up their Afrophobic nonsense.

Some are saying Wits must ignore them but it shouldn’t — it should bring respond swiftly and forcefully with facts. Otherwise people will stay with the wrong impression.

135K of what really? @Newzroom405
did you look at the quality of those 135k submissions ? @Newzroom405
Did you have any questions about
which literacy approach was used in the process of acquiring these 135k submissions?

[karma is a feminist @shabash]

Been saying this for so long - govt's failure to prioritize critical literacy on public policies is a gap that will always be exploited, esp during election season. We have so much popular tech these days but it's not used to transform our public policy illiteracy problem.

[Newzroom Afrika @Newzroom405]

The South Africans for Constitutional Reform (SACR), is calling for the amendment of one of the country's phrases in the preamble, which states that South Africa belongs to "all who live in it".  The group's Ntombenhle Mhlongo speaks to @iamthabomdluli about the proposals on citizenship, resource reservation and property ownership. #Newzroom405

[Siyabonga @SiyabongaOnX]

You’d have to be completely uninterested in properly engaging the issue to think there’s nothing suspicious about accounts based in Chicago, Hong-Kong, Israel etc., all pretending to be Sne287548 from Durban, who’s ‘worried about a Muslim takeover in South Africa’.

[Phumzile Van Damme @zilevandamme]

So. We have confirmation that Starlink is a client of Resolve. This means that the former Leader of the DA, facilitated a meeting with a prospective “tender” applicant which resulted in the Minister beginning changing rules to fit the requirements of said “bidder.”

That, my dears is corruption.

[Unathi Afrika @UnathiAfrika]

An estimated 70+ "Black" South Africans are murdered everyday, in painful circumstances. And they chose to honor some random German couple, and you imagine that this is about you? Really?

[karma is a feminist @shabash]

Necklacing lynching racial profiling overnight concentration camps just for votes?
deploying
neonazi zio-nazi methods and talking about protecting sovereignty. GtFo.

[Herman Mashaba @HermanMashaba]

We honour you and your colleagues for standing up for our country.
Your unwavering commitment to the sovereignty of South Africa and its people is commendable.

👍🏻& here we are once again caught in the outcomes of internalized policing & discipline.

is agitating residents to police the transformers. This is not the residents’ responsibility. Eskom is setting people up to
fight their neighbours" (Ngwane)

[Dr. Hood Possum @DrLungi_Mashele]

I’m so glad you brought this here!

A 2022 report done by UJ researchers that said load reduction was inherently racist.

This is correct.

A racist policy that in part has such material social outcomes… 🤷🏾‍♀️
