Highest infant rape rate in the world.
Highest number of people living with HIV in the world.
Highest murder rate in the world (between SA & Jamaica).
Highest unemployment rate in the world.
Highest road deaths in the world caused by alcohol.

A national commission of enquiry after the South African Police Service is exposed for being a pivotal arm of criminality itself.
Tembisa hospital looting.
National loadshedding.
Johannesburg, the economic hub of Africa (apparently), running out of water.

At the government's annual State of the Nation address to the citizens that it serves; we must first watch and listen to our politicians show us the life of luxury that enabling all of the above has afforded them. We must read how "journalists" give their verdict on which of these officials looked the most glamourous.

We don't hate the government and South African journalists enough. Trust me, they fucking hate us.

Minister Nokuzola Sisisi Tolashe, entrepreneur Rethabile Lethoko-Ncwana, Deputy Minister Nonceba Mhlauli, and cultural activist Ria Reen have arrived at Cape Town City Hall for the 2026 State of the Nation Address—sparking the question of who is best dressed. https://t.co/fjYzsXchQ9

Roland coming in with the greatest Sunday Night Lights speech… let’s goooooo @BafanaBafana ! 🇿🇦 🇿🇦

[Roland Schoeman @Rolandschoeman]

My message to @BafanaBafana

Look around.

Take it in.

Most South Africans never get to stand where you’re standing today. You do.

Not because someone gave it to you. Because you earned it. Every sprint. Every tackle. Every sacrifice. Every day nobody was watching.

You belong here.

Don’t confuse nerves with fear. What you’re feeling is privilege. It’s excitement. It’s the reward for years of work.

For the next ninety minutes, don’t play hoping something special happens. Play knowing you are the ones who can make it happen.

When that whistle blows, be brave. Trust each other. Fight for every ball. Leave everything on this field.

Because when you walk off tonight, make sure there isn’t a single ounce left to give.

Go make South Africa proud.

[Dré @wolfmayor_]

@Rolandschoeman @BafanaBafana @GaytonMcK @adidasZA Absolutely epic, Roland:

“You belong here. Don’t confuse nerves with fear. What you’re feeling is privilege. It’s excitement. It’s the reward for years of work.” 🇿🇦 🇿🇦 ❤️

@dramadelinquent I’m trying to figure out if this is the greatest example of purposeful “not so great” censoring.. if it is, well played.

[American Nightmare 🇺🇸 @thewakeninq]

Irish couple left speechless after a small-town Alabama restaurant owner quietly picked up their entire tab.

Meanwhile, the same people who spent years sneering that Alabama was nothing but “backward rednecks” just got a masterclass in Southern hospitality. No lectures. No virtue signaling. No social media performance. Just genuine kindness from people the elites love to mock.

Turns out character isn’t measured by ZIP code—it’s measured by actions. And once again, small-town America embarrassed the self-appointed “tolerant” crowd without saying a word.

I was told I couldn’t do what I’ve done without a record label or without having first done hundreds of shows or without support from XYZ company - I got a number one album and they didn’t even play a song from it on the radio after the countdown🤣 never accept “it can’t be done”

What a weird take.

A lot of the very same people you're taking a jab at, are the same people who would have defended you when you were purposely misuderstood. Yet here you are, purposely pretending to misunderstand them just so you can get engagement. This isn't it.

Besides the fact that you open yourself up to ANC or ANC supporters rightfully pointing towards this statement going, "Even Roman wants to stay, we're obviously not doing to bad a job"; what a weird idea that you can't be patriotic but also think the country is failing.

It's obviously OK to think the country is not going to shit, if that is your lived experience, and clearly that's yours, fine.

However, there are enough things at play to completely understand that someone would feel the country is going to shit:

Highest infant rape rate in the world.
Highest overall rape risk in the world.
Country with the most cities in the global top ten crime index, 4 cities. In 2012 it was 1.
Highest unemployment in the world.
Highest alcohol related road deaths in the world.
Highest HIV infections in the world.
Consistently contesting for highest murder rate in the world.
Highest Gini coeffecient in the world, which we cannot seem to solve, which will as it always does in countries with this level of wealth disparity lead to "revolution" and violence.
Our ports ranking dead last in the world.
The rise and revert to racial lines in politics, coupled with a now more openly accepted view of socialism (always works out great).

There are multiple reasons why people could rightfully think the country is going to shit... and for you to come out and infer that still loving your sports teams, your country of birth, being patriotic is something you have to hand in if you acknowledge the trajectory we're headed in is a ludicrous take.

[Roman Cabanac @RomanCabanac]

South Africans who want to emigrate 'because the country is going to shit' are wearing their Bafana jerseys today.

[Dré @wolfmayor_]

Roman, with all due respect, what you are failing to understand is that you will not be planning your future, based on what you see in the present, with the same degree of scrutiny and importance as any South African who only has one passport and can't afford for the worse case future scenario to arriving on his doorstep.

I have yet to meet a "I'm Staying" activist who doesn't either have a passport to somewhere else, who only came back to SA once they got UK residency/citizenship, or has the funds or skills to leave if they have to.

Genuinely, it's great that you don't want to leave. But that is no indication that you won't one day do so once your personal line is crossed. It is only an indication that your line hasn't been crossed yet, and that you already have options you could execute immediately when it got to bad for you.

"Yeah but I don't want to leave" is a nothing statement that almost everyone who has left has once said. There is no judgement toward that, only that you can't see how silly it is to say that in the context of this conversation.

It is such a bitter feeling seeing Mama Joy repeatedly put on screen during this game.

All I think about now is someone who demanded that tax payers fund her dream lifestyle.

I understand she is now sponsored by a business after throwing a tantrum online with @GaytonMcK - but seeing her on screen ruins the moment and only teaches people with this level of entitlement that entitlement does in fact pay if you stomp your feet loud enough.

Anyway, let’s go Bafana!
