I will go to my grave still incandescent with rage for the way #KwaSizabantu treated the children in their care. Wondering why? And why I won’t be silenced? Here are just 3 pages from #MissionOfMalice that will give you a glimpse into the hell my Zulu friends experienced there:

@ThabisoGoba2 Yes, it’s that religious framing that is so weird, and not only because tithes are voluntary. It’s giving cult vibes.

@EBee40 Most, if not all political parties require their members deployed to Parliament, provincial legislature’s & municipal councils to contribute a share of their salaries to the party. Some parties call it levies but I guess the DA calls it tithes.

People really underestimate the level of herd mentality that exists among men, especially when it comes to doing or allowing harm. Because even the ones not actively participating… what are they doing? Standing there recording, watching and stopping nothing. And somehow, they’ll still go home and think they’re “good men” because they didn’t directly do anything.

“Benjamin Netanyahu’s Twitter impersonator says”… but yes. No RIP from me.
Shadow of Ezra@ShadowofEzra

Benjamin Netanyahu says he is saddened to hear the news of the passing of his close friend, Chuck Norris. Chuck Norris made a campaign video in 2015 endorsing Netanyahu, describing him as crucial to Israel’s safety. Norris’s ties to Israel began in the 1980s when he filmed three movies there, including one in which his character investigates the murder of a rabbi. These projects were often backed by Israeli production companies like Globus-Golan.

@BDliveSA It’s bad enough you quietly deleted your earlier tweet 2 hours after I showed there’s no readily available IMF publication backing this claim. But to repost it and hide behind “according to letter writer” is breathtakingly dishonest. Your job is to verify ALL content you publish

@XolsTYQ @EBee40 What a myopic view! Advocacy and activism are never an "all-or-nothing". No single person can address every global injustice at once. Your tu quoque tactic is a defensive mechanism to avoid self-reflection or to justify inaction on a specific, achievable change.

Barry and Bruce would like to know why they’re still in foster care. They’re 9 weeks old, and ready to be adopted! If you’re in Jozi, and you’re looking for an orange cat (or two!) please send Belinda a WhatsApp on 083 271 5956 to request adoption forms. Please share. 🧡

@XolsTYQ @EBee40 "hypocrisy" and it's a victim of a cult warning people about the sexual abuse of children in that cult and urging people to boycott their source of money. You don't know what that word means. So we can't protest ANYTHING because EVERYTHING we use was gotten through exploitation?

DM me your postal address. I’ll send you a copy of my book for free. Let’s see if you still call me a hypocrite after reading it. And if you live in Cape Town, come and audit my kitchen shelves for yourself. Calling my a hypocrite is not going to silence me.
Xols@XolsTYQ

@EBee40 Being a victim does not give you a moral high ground. I'm sorry you went through what you went through, but it doesn't give you exclusivity to hypocrisy.

@XolsTYQ Just FYI, I earned the right to call for a boycott of aQuellé as it is owned by my abusers. The scars my friends and I carry are our testimonies - as well as the many words we’ve spoken. Read my pinned tweet before you come at me again for calling for a boycott.

@EBee40 You are on X a platform owned by a supporter of Israel and genocide. Yet waving a Palestinian flag. You use Google and Microsoft. Where is the line? Are you going with the lesser of all evils?How do you determine that? ❌️ to Aquelle, but ✅️ Israel money & products?

No worker is allowed to join a union. They fire unmarried women who fall pregnant (not the man though), and please don’t be foolish enough to think their millions contribute to medical aid/ pensions. But sure. A massive economic engine that enriches only the leadership.

@XolsTYQ Please show me evidence of me using and consuming Nestlé, McD in the past three years - and any other brand you want to throw in my face. Go on.

@EBee40 Condemning aQuellé but still using X, Palestinians use it? Nestle? Google? McD? That’s hypocrisy. Using the very platforms you criticize as an ‘excuse’ doesn’t make you consistent, it makes you selective. Live proudly in your hypocrisy without using Palestinians as an excuse.

For as long as Palestinians and other oppressed people use Twitter, I will be here too. Their voices need amplifying and if they choose to use this platform, I will support them. 🇵🇸🇨🇩🇸🇩🇱🇧🇮🇷

Just because I use tools does not mean I am not allowed to criticise the men who hold the power over those tools. I live in the DA-run city of Cape Town. I despise the DA. So I must move cities? I boycott whatever and wherever I can, and support local as far as humanly possible.

“So why is our most fertile land not producing jobs and food? That is the most fundamental question about land we need to be asking in South Africa.” - Zille. Always accusing black people of not working hard enough.

Q: However, SA land is not in black hands. The majority of South African land is not black-owned. Z: Let’s look at the fertile land. The last figure I saw was that 73% of KwaZulu-Natal is in black hands. That is seriously fertile land: good rain, good sun, everything you want.
