@LCabonena If a mob chases workers away from employment where they were earning R6,500 a month, what happens next? How do those individuals sustain themselves and their families going forward? They are SA's they should have said objected to leaving their employment haibo batlo ja eng
@kenny_monei@my_azania Your thinking is poor though, and it shows in the equivalence you keep trying to force where none exists. your repetition of a wrong equivalence dressed as reasoning. this is a point I need to respect myself and stop responding i tried shem naa..#Librariesarefree
@kenny_monei@my_azania The irony is that many economies celebrate entrepreneurship until it arrives without corporate branding,lease agreements or polished storefronts. Yet the vendor & the mall worker often exist in the same ecosystem: one sells what the other can actually afford.
@kenny_monei@my_azania Informal trade is not a new phenomenon, it is often the first layer of economic participation for the excluded. The role of governance is not merely to punish informality but to manage it intelligently.
@kenny_monei@my_azania Just how you have abandoned proportional reasoning. What concerns me is how quickly poverty gets criminalized while structural economic failures are normalized. A mother selling fat cakes outside a mall is not operating from greed or violence, she is operating from exclusion.
@my_azania She is economic resilience in its rawest form. She feeds workers who cannot afford the polished prices inside the very mall she stands beside. Yet somehow, she becomes the target not corruption,not collapsing infrastructure,not unemployment,but a woman with a bucket Shu
@MmabathoMontsho@ExclusiveBooks@Sophie_Mokoena This reveals unspoken bias,feels a lot like profiling. And profiling is not neutral. It is not harmless. It is the quiet shifting of suspicion onto certain bodies, certain faces, certain customers, while others move freely without question.
@LukanyoMngqolo SAโs education remains structurally compliance driven, prioritising formal progression over applied competence it optimises academic throughput not cognitive agility. It rewards replication of knowledge over application of insight which limits innovation and self sufficiency.
@Zintathu_L Yes he was wrong to be part of the looting but Yak the sentencing was harsh..a warning would have sufficed or some community work..there is no justification to sentence him to 3yrs imprisonment just by stealing a basket full of food i mean at best the items woud cost R1500
@LadyAbahambe he was thinking, โMonth end youโre all getting paid.โ But little has been done to grow the economy or create jobs.Informal vendors are people fighting to survive. Removing their livelihoods punishes their vulnerability. empathy would recognise the human impact of these decision
@LadyAbahambe Shu!Urban revitalisation should not come at the expense of the economically marginalised.For many, street trading is not a inconvenience it is livelihood that sustains families, funds education, &prevents deeper poverty.I get it when u remove drug Lords kodwa mabanta let him sell
@AyandaAllie A yes.if ASA fields Nasiphi will be conflated,much will also depend on who the EFF field theyโve been doing commendable work 2. Jhb needs someone who understands that economic revival,infrastructure renewal, & social cohesion are interconnected pillars of metropolitan stability.
@AyandaAllie Hei ๐wink wink at least good news files "Him we preach ie "Christ " kinda files...tsa go shomayela...Salvation to the world...have a super day....
@KhuselaS 2 speak with condescension abt skilled craftsmanship, while questions surrounding oneโs immediate household remain unresolved.Any attempt to vet one's worth or propriety rings hollow not her. Perhaps maybe Sntlts u were meant to wear R102 mil safety PPE shoes as u craft furniture
