Consider the probability that each GP double cabbed couple 'semigrating' to the Cape comes with at least two licensed firearms and two dogs. Apart from all the additional dog shit in the parks and on the beaches, is this a new kind of Cape Gangster emerging?

If we're serious about reconciliation, the damage caused by colonialism shouldn't be swept under the rug and history shouldn't be rewritten to shift blame and advance myths such as the black colonial invasion of South Africa. We're moving backwards as a nation if that continues.

@MaS1banda Yikes!

@wesleyfestersa The sooner we start to disidentify with the ‘coloured’ creation the better. The heterogenous nature of our community is informed by so many things, class, religion, rugby affiliation,etc. We need to find common ground in our humanity (which is threatened with extinction)!

Immigration
Housing
Minimum wage

@wesleyfestersa Deep social conditioning and rooted in slavery and colonial depravity. Consciousness is shifting though and time will tell how the ‘integrated’ youth will help to positively reshape the narrative. #WeAreOne

@LucasLemotlo @Khoena @kmosebetsi It is important that we come to a comprehensive understanding and acceptance of our one-ness as Africans, through knowledge of our real history. Let us try not to do so at the expense of each other’s time and dignity. The colonisers would have won, if we allow this to happen.

@lunchout2 To say that the country is going up in flames is a gross overstatement. It would also be more correct to say that vegetation fires are being weaponised by the marginalised and the poor in the Western Cape.
