Blocking an investment into rural education is a slap in the face to every student sitting in a classroom with zero connectivity. While the rest of the world is racing toward the future, we're stuck watching SA politicians play gatekeeper with rules that do absolutely nothing for the end user.

If 5,000 rural schools getting high speed internet for FREE is nothing, then what is the government's something? Because right now, the only thing moving is the talent and investment leaving South Africa for markets that actually want to compete. SA Government says mobile operators are doing more, but those same operators are charging the very people who can't afford bread. Starlink is offering a R500 million bypass to that poverty trap.

NEWS: Senior Government Members Lie About Starlink in South Africa Parliamentary chair Khusela Diko claims Starlink’s FREE high-speed internet for 5,000 rural schools “brings nothing to the table” and “won’t move the needle an inch.” The Truth: Starlink is putting up R500 million of its own cash for zero-cost kits, lightning-fast internet, and full maintenance, forever. 
This connects 2.4 million rural kids in deep countryside areas where cables and towers can’t reach. Kids get online classes, free learning videos, homework help, and real skills for the future. Teachers access better resources. Entire villages finally join the digital world, boosting education, jobs, and hope where it’s needed most. @elonmusk is stepping up with real help for free while politicians downplay it. Stop the lies — approve Starlink NOW!

With @PM_ViktorOrban losing the elections, we’ve lost our strongest fighter. Orbán built things that the rest of Europe can only dream of, and he was willing to pay massive fines to defy the EU’s replacement migration policies. Do we really think the new guy — who claims to be a nationalist — will magically continue the same path while receiving 17 BILLION Euros in EU funds and joining the Eurozone? Yeah, I don’t think so. You can’t have your cake and eat it too.

🇿🇦 South Africa just made history. The CSIR has cracked the code on producing the critical molecules needed for lab-grown meat — CSIR has scaled up production We no longer need to import expensive starter chemicals from the US or Europe. SA is now one of the few countries on Earth that can grow its own protein. 🥩🔬 Why Is It a Big Deal? ​● It eliminates the need for large-scale animal slaughter. ​● It uses significantly less land and water than traditional cattle farming. Would you eat lab-grown Meat?

@GarryWalt @EvaVlaar @PM_ViktorOrban Orban insisted his cronies were in charge of every aspect of the media and every public sector institution right down to primary schools. Claiming it's his opposition that is tyrannical shows you're either: 1. A Kremlin stooge 2. So fucking dumb you need velcro shoes.

@GarryWalt @EvaVlaar @PM_ViktorOrban Tyrannical: a magaspeak word describing democracies that do not follow the precepts of their fascist ideals! What is so ironic is that they are trying to create even worse tyrannies.

@GarryWalt @EvaVlaar @PM_ViktorOrban Nobody knows the new guy (Magyar) is the tyrannical person Eva claims he is. Orban was a Soviet era throwback enabler of Russia. There are 2 evils plaguing Europe - Russia and Socialism. Hungary has chosen to distance themselves from Russia bc Magyar may not be a socialist.

@RadioGenoa @jamesian01 It's difficult to comprehend why Hungarians would willingly exchange a near-perfect diversity-free utopian paradise for a dystopian nightmare. Unless, of course, they didn't, and foreign influences engineered the result.

There are no fake asylum seekers in Hungary. A true paradise. This is why EU politicians hate Orban. Unfortunately, from today on, they will be invaded by criminals.

Popped Culture - A Safugee living in the US 🇺🇸
🚨 Refugee Programme Update 🚨 Exactly 3 months ago today I boarded a plane in Johannesburg with a suitcase and a carry-on, that's it. Niks, nada, fokol, nil compensation. I was so scared and had no idea how I was going to do this, but I knew that if I didn't, I would die. It's been a wild ride and I've loved trying to make the experience real for all of you, sharing all the ups and downs of life as a refugee in the US (although the negatives were very few and far between🤣) but I can honestly say that I love my new life here and will continue to fight for equality in South Africa to make it safer for those who can't leave or don't want to. The gratitude that I have down from the depths of my soul for what the Trump Administration and the American people have done for us can't be explained, and I will spend every single breath that I have left in my body, for the rest of my life, trying to repay this debt of kindness. God bless America and the American people 🇺🇸

I really wish they would implement sanctions on SA. We will all suffer from the sanctions, but it is a necessary evil. We have to start at ground zero again. From having more railways than the rest of Africa combined to not having any railway service now. From electricity, water, sewerage and road infrastructure etc, everything was pillaged by the ANC. It will be a good time for international investment to re-build. Sooner rather than later!
