88 Kilos of Sunshine

So here goes, the complete thread on "The Tyranny of Pretty Things" 88kilosofsunshine.bandcamp.com/album/the-tyra…

If capitalism is so great, why do corporations need so many tax breaks, subsidies, exemptions, grants, legal protections, bailouts, and trade protections? When citizens need these things, why is it socialism?

@phethani4 Two questions (engaging respectfully): Have you read Whigs and Hunters by the Marxist historian E.P Thompson and, if so, what do you say to his argument that the rule of law is an unqualified human good? Second, what would you replace the rule of law with?

Sizwe, please stop calling yourself “independent” when your podcast has become a full-time anti-Ramaphosa campaign disguised as analysis. Independence requires balance, constitutional consistency, and intellectual honesty, not selective outrage every time the President exercises his constitutional rights. A real constitutional analyst would educate people about Section 34, judicial review, legality, and due process, not push emotional political narratives aimed at delegitimising one individual. You speak as if the President must surrender his constitutional rights simply because your preferred political outcome did not materialise. Your analysis is no longer objective, it is driven by obsession, frustration, and political hostility toward Cyril Ramaphosa. South Africa is governed by the Constitution and the rule of law, not by podcasts, emotions, or anti-Cyril wishful thinking.

In fact, the guy raised 7 October too. I asked him if it would have been ok for the NP government to flatten Mamelodi township & kill many of its children after the Church St bombing in Pretoria in 1983, because that's where the MK operators were from. His response: 'fuck you'.

Last post before I sleep. We all know Twitter is not what it used to be, sadly. We all have many reasons why we're still here..one of them for me is so many of YOU guys, mainly strangers, just taking your time to take some bullets meant for me. I assume you don't always agree with me and I irritate you sometimes. 😋 But you will be strong, we are in a relationship 😃 On a serious note, so many of you are fair and kind and you do come out and call out BS. I appreciate that you remember my work, what I've always stood for and your bring it out boldly when I need the most. Thank you.

Interestingly, Xena Warrior Princess had a black Helen of Troy thirty years ago, but race wasn’t a big deal back in the 90s.

We're seeing an overnight rewriting of what Jacob Zuma's strategy before the courts has been (for the last two decades). bffr

When it comes to education, health and electricity i am 100% a socialist. we must take profit out of them. This is the side order that comes with private sector participation. mybroadband.co.za/news/energy/64…

Thanks to @jozikart @crestacentre for great compassion & empathy this weekend, as Junior rode alongside brave #burned blind fingerless #Dorah, to allow her to experience what other burned children had just enjoyed on the go-karts @CityofJoburgZA

Burns survivors Reaobaka (13) and Thabang (13), were so excited at their first ever meal out in a restaurant, that they had to record every moment @UlrichJvV

Credentials fallacy is the flawed assumption that an argument's validity or a person's capability is determined strictly by their formal credentials and not the substance of the argument itself.

GitHub Copilot moves to token based billing on June 1, and its users got a calculator showing their actual monthly token burn - some $39-a-month users have spent $1500 to $5800 in tokens a month. I believe it's indicative of every AI startup. wheresyoured.at/premium-what-i…

Dear Mark. I assume you are a Saltzman, founders of Dischem. I do not know who your mother is. I have taken NO MONEY from her. The @Dischem Foundation supported good causes led by my previous employer @Radio702 . They also sponsored the Brain of 702. It was a partnership with a commercial radio station. Did your mother want our souls in return?Did your family think that was money coming to me personally? What money did your mother give ME, Redi? And when did I meet with her? Is this what you discuss at family dinners? I am a big customer at Dischem and I assumed like any moral corporate citizen, the Foundation was set up for good deeds, not as a form of blackmail. Perhaps @Dischem foundation should have made it clear to 702 management all those years that it supported good courses in return for MY obedience and silence on Israel's atrocities and war crimes. I'd have told them to go fuck themselves. And unless you and your mother can prove here, publicly, that I, Redihentse Tlhabi, took money from her, then you can also go fuck yourselves. And why is everything about money?

Dear @realDonaldTrump the “white genocide” didn’t reach Franschhoek. We had a wonderful discussion about non-racialism, the legacy of 1976 and the danger of nationalist projects. The Afrikaners are alive and well. @MaxduPreez @justicemalala @News24

I’ve told you to stop using my content for clicks without credit. I don’t agree with your right wing views and wouldn’t want people to think we’ve collaborated.

This is most likely made up, but let's say it's 100% accurate. Why is it wrong for a people to attempt to defend themselves from the nation that's actively trying to starve and destroy them

Hey @FlySafair how do I get you to stop messaging me. Someone gave you an incorrect number.

For all tge xenophobes who think they have a unique problem. Nope you are being lied to by the same types of manipulative psychopaths as is every xenophobe in every country. You're being led around like a sheep.
