Donations are not meant to buy obedience to the donor's worldview. That is blackmail and control. Anyway
..if those donors are businesses, do South Africans have a right to know who they are so they too can make a decision about where to take their money?

One of the things I've noticed about the way people talk about trans people, queer people and unconventional couples is that the discomfort rarely begins with our existence.
It begins with our joy

I know white South Africans are SO happy about poor African children in rural areas getting access to cheap, fast and reliable internet 🥺

Anti-woke people are truly the weakest people alive.

Wait until I tell them there's a loved adaptation of Hercules where Hades talks like a scummy lawyer, Zeus is good, and the story is told by black gospel singers, one of whom is thicc and gets some of the best lines.

I’m sorry… the city of Cape Town approved a data center?!? As in the thing that is a massive water and electricity consumer… inside the same country that has a water crisis and is always at risk of load shedding… how detrimentally stupid is this city man, what the hell🫩

George Orwell worried that a shrinking vocabulary would eventually produce a shrinking range of thought.

It is difficult to think a nuanced thought with a blunt language.

I love men. Just the build of a man, the scent of a man, the parts of a man. I see why I'm gay as hell.

Currently reading an essay that explores how Africa be framed truthfully, responsibly and constructive for Africans and the world. It argues that Africa needs more balanced, contextual, and agency driven form of representation rooted in narrative sovereignty

When Africa appears in Global media, journalist often potray it through familiar narratives of crisis, including violence, poverty, disease outbreak, corruption and humanitarian emergencies. However they do not fully capture the complexity and diverse of African societies.

There is enough comparative evidence that if the Resolve Comms scandal was playing out in countries like the UK, Canada, Ireland, Germany, France or Australia, it would be treated as a serious potential conflict-of-interest and political-access controversy.https://t.co/ZQrEo2nbFt

Part of transphobia is jealousy of a trans person finding a level of happiness and comfort with themselves that is literally impossible for a bigot to ever have

The state of abounded industrials, old factory houses when those infrastructures can be used to uplift the economy and create jobs.

Corruption is actually corroding us as a society, and we are not seeing it as the existential threat that it is. We cannot develop anything while corruption is normalized in almost all sectors of society.
