@bluefinoh @cb_doge @elonmusk So dramatic when definition of treason is “the crime of betraying one's country, typically involving acts designed to overthrow the government, coerce it through violence, or assist foreign enemies.”

A lot of misinformation from legacy media about Starlink’s entry into South Africa. Here’s the truth 👇 • ❌ “Starlink wants to bypass B-BBEE” ✅ False — it supports transformation via EEIP, a legal framework already used by companies like Microsoft, IBM, and Amazon Web Services. • ❌ “Starlink is asking for special treatment” ✅ No — it’s asking for equal rules so ALL satellite operators can compete fairly. • ❌ “EEIP is less beneficial than equity deals” ✅ Reality — Starlink’s plan would connect 5,000 rural schools with FREE high-speed internet, impacting millions of students every year. • ❌ “It won’t create local impact” ✅ It will partner with local businesses, create jobs, and boost the economy (broadband growth = GDP growth). • ❌ “It will become a monopoly” ✅ Impossible — Starlink operates globally in a competitive market across 150+ countries. • ❌ “Security & privacy risks” ✅ It will fully comply with South African laws like every other country it operates in. • ❌ “Starlink is already operating illegally” ✅ Wrong — it is NOT operating because it is still waiting for a license.

🇿🇦 South African President Cyril Ramaphosa says that the country will not abandon its DEI policies, known as “Black Economic Empowerment (BEE).” “Those who say BEE and affirmative action must stop are just dreaming,” he said. South Africa has strict laws that mandate race-based hiring practices. A new law called the Employment Equity Amendment Act sets hiring targets for 2025–2030 across 18 economic sectors. Some workforce targets aim for 90–96% of employees to come from designated groups, which include Black people, women, and people with disabilities (minimum 3%). That means that if a company has more than 5% white men, it could face penalties of up to 10% of its income.

@KanthanPillay The people cross about this are driven by envy, which ironically is the single most powerful emotion driving this country to ruin.

@BafanaSurprise Iran and Russia assists the majority of South Africans with lower food prices, lower inflation through lower oil and fuel prices, especially the poor. America and Israel do not assist the poor in South Africa, but the elite and politically connected.

Cyril Ramaphosa has decided our fate! He has placed South Africa at the mercy of Iran, while showing a middle finger to the U.S. government. South Africa is a family business, that benefits the interests of Cyril Ramaphosa. He has declared war with the U.S. government!

Quanto accaduto oggi a Torino, durante il corteo degli antagonisti contro lo sgombero dello stabile Askatasuna, è grave e inaccettabile. Uno sgombero legittimo di un immobile occupato illegalmente è stato usato come pretesto per scatenare violenze, incendi, lanci di bombe carta e aggressioni organizzate, fino a colpire un blindato della Polizia. Le immagini dell’agente aggredito parlano da sole: non siamo di fronte a manifestanti, ma a soggetti che agiscono come nemici dello Stato. A farne le spese sono state le Forze dell’ordine, costrette a fronteggiare una vera guerriglia urbana, e alcuni giornalisti, aggrediti mentre svolgevano il loro lavoro. A loro va la mia piena solidarietà, insieme a quella ai cittadini danneggiati, che hanno pagato il prezzo di una violenza cieca e deliberata. Questi non sono dissenso né protesta: sono aggressioni violente con l’obiettivo di colpire lo Stato e chi lo rappresenta. E per questo devono essere trattate per ciò che sono, senza sconti e senza giustificazioni. Il Governo ha fatto la sua parte, rafforzando gli strumenti per contrastare l’impunità. Ora è fondamentale che anche la Magistratura faccia fino in fondo la propria, perché non si ripetano episodi di lassismo che in passato hanno annullato provvedimenti sacrosanti contro chi devasta le nostre città e aggredisce chi le difende. Difendere la legalità non è una provocazione: è un dovere. Lo Stato non arretra di fronte alla violenza di finti rivoluzionari abituati all’impunità e sta, senza ambiguità, dalla parte di chi indossa una divisa, di chi fa informazione e di chi rispetta le regole della convivenza civile.

what is simply astonishing is how some Europeans would rather believe in extraterrestrial beings than acknowledge that Africans built the pyramids.
Archaeo - Histories@archeohistories

This stone is just one of the 2.3 million stones believed to have been cut, dragged, and lifted to construct the Great Pyramid over 5,000 years ago. The sheer number of stones involved in the pyramid's construction speaks to the monumental effort required to build such an ancient wonder of the world. Each block, some weighing several tons, was carefully shaped and moved into place, showcasing the incredible skill and organization of the workers involved. The construction of the Great Pyramid has long been a subject of fascination and speculation. While the exact methods used remain a mystery, it is widely believed that workers employed a combination of ramps, levers, and sheer manpower to move and position these massive stones. The precision with which the stones were placed remains a testament to the advanced engineering knowledge of the ancient Egyptians. Despite the passage of thousands of years, the Great Pyramid still stands as a symbol of human achievement and ingenuity. The remarkable feat of transporting and assembling these millions of stones continues to awe historians, architects, and visitors from around the world, solidifying the pyramid's place as one of the most impressive structures ever built. © Reddit #archaeohistories
