South Africa won’t allow Starlink to be licensed, even though I was BORN THERE, simply because I am not Black!
We were offered many times the opportunity to bribe our way to a license by pretending that a Black guy runs Starlink SA, but I have refused to do so on principle.
Racism should not be rewarded no matter to which race it is applied.
Shame on the racist politicians in South Africa. They should be shown no respect whatsoever anywhere in the world and shunned for being unashamedly RACISTS!

Why Elon Musk is RIGHT to fight South Africa’s racist rules blocking Starlink? Imagine this: Long ago, South Africa had very unfair laws called apartheid. They treated Black people badly and kept them from good jobs and money. When those bad laws ended, the country made new rules (called B-BBEE) to help Black people get a fair share of business. The idea was good – like a big helping hand. But now? For companies like Starlink to sell fast internet, they MUST give away 30% of their business to Black partners. Just because of skin color. Elon Musk was born in South Africa. He left as a teen to chase big dreams. Today, his company SpaceX wants to bring Starlink – super fast satellite internet – to South Africa. But the rules say no unless they give up part of the company. Elon said it right: “Starlink is not allowed because I’m not Black.” SpaceX promised to spend about $30 million (that’s 500 million rand!) to give FREE high-speed internet to 5,000 rural schools. That helps over 2.4 MILLION kids every year learn better, get jobs later, and have a brighter future. Real help for the people who need it most! Starlink already works in about 24 other African countries. Villages there now have internet for school, doctors, and business. South Africa’s villages are missing out because of these racist rules. Elon isn’t asking for special favors. He just wants fair play so Starlink can connect everyone fast. Internet = education, jobs, hope. Why hold back millions of kids over rules that pick by race and color?

@sehansam11 @hldmyhnd2222 @NBADracos One day no too far, we will see a better shooter than will eclipse Steph then we will revisit this subject and you will know why you don’t disrespect people career because it’s a different era. I am for the Bron, KD, Steph , Wade, Melo era but don’t disrespect Magic Johnson.
English
@JoinAbbeyVC @hldmyhnd2222 @NBADracos Don’t compare a goat to a sheep, steph is untouchable when it comes to ability and skill. Magic dominated in an era with mediocre talent compared to Stephs competition. Don’t be silly.
English
Magic Johnson on him Vs Curry 👀.
Yeah. Bro is ready to defend his legacy🐐
English
@hldmyhnd2222 @NBADracos Mean nothing! 3 MVP, 3 FMVP, 5 Rings compare to 2 MVP, 1 FMVP, 4 rings. All NBA Teams selections. Magic did all that in 12 seasons just FYI.
English
@kendup1 @NBADracos What a horrible excuse. Kareem was out of Game 6. Compensate Kareem?
English
@NBADracos Technically…Magic should have 2 FMVP’s bcuz he robbed Kareem of his just like Iggy robbed Steph, so both should have 2.
English
@BellBane @NBADracos Say that again? KD, Klay, Draymond, Iguodala, Shawn Livingston, Barnes, David West, etc
English
@NBADracos Also have good team and team around him while curry team be with bunch of guys that’s ass
English
@Znnyiawho0 @NBADracos Curry played with KD, Draymond, Iguodala and Klay. What’s your point? What do you mean he has AiDS, no he has HIV. He would have died if he had AIDS. Besides, he is billionaire and can take care of himself. Why should AIDS define his life?!
English
@NBADracos If you Give Curry James Worthy and Kareem for 10 seasons he'll be the GOAT buddy, Magic's Ego is Too Big for someone who has Aids and Gettinf Carried by 2 hof and a top 3 player oat💀
English
@WestWest510 @NBADracos He was FMVP in his rookie year because Kareem was out. Curry played 4 hof. So explain how Magic’s career’s is overinflated? And he achieved that in 12 years.
English
@SliverBurner @NBADracos Asissts has more impact in a game that 3s
English
@NBADracos All those stats are impressive except that asts. Steph has thd most 3s in the finals. Does that mean he is better than magic? No, it doesn't matter in terms of greatness.

“It’s still recognized as one of the worst cities in America. To the point where the head of the FBI has called it 'the murder capital of this country' per capita. That's on the record." - Stephen A. Smith on Memphis (h/t @awfulannouncing )

@very_common_guy @ronicacryptonit I just laughed seeing this post and comments 🤣🤣
Lack of education is dangerous but half knowledge is even more dangerous. The pastor talking has no knowledge about crypto and there is high probability that scammers offered him the opportunity.

THE ONLY MAN OF GOD WITH THE COURAGE TO EXPOSE WHAT OTHER SO-CALLED MEN OF GOD ARE DOING IN CRYPTO.

For everyone wanting to see the @Hyatt in Memphis @KingJames is talking about
Legion Hoops@LegionHoops
LeBron James on playing the Grizzlies: “I’m f***ing 41 years of age. You think I want to do sh** in Memphis on a random Thursday? I’m not the first guy in the NBA to talk about this. You guys got to move the team… go over to Nashville already.” (via @leaguealerts)
English
@LegionHoops Not a fan of him but he is prophesying. The handwriting is on the wall.
Just look at the Lakers, 7 white boy on the floor sometimes. Luka, Jokic, Cooper Flagg, AR and the other internationals. It’s coming. American players better step up!
English
Kwame Brown says the Americans’ lack of support for each other is what caused white players to start dominating the NBA:
“It’s going to be the Euro and the white league. Outside of LeBron James, Stephen Curry, and maybe KD, a lot of our superstar guys come with a lot of baggage. Myself included.”

@ElijahP90239 @NBA__Courtside Name calling reveals low iq because you can’t intelligently articulate yourself.
English
@JoinAbbeyVC @NBA__Courtside U calling me emotional is the reason for me calling u dumb. And u said it again so yes ur dumb. Just because I don’t agree with u doesn’t make me emotional. I asked u to show me fax to support ur argument , so we could actually have a debate. U couldn’t so u called me emotional

Max Kellerman says Kobe Bryant is only better than D Wade because he’s taller:
“The only reason Kobe Bryant is greater than Dwyane Wade, is he’s two inches taller. Wade is 6’4 and almost as good as Kobe Bryant at his best. Between Jordan’s finals and when LeBron started taking over in the finals, the best finals ANYONE had was Dwyane Wade against Dallas in 2006”
(Via Game Over)
English
@etetet1235689 @NBA__Courtside I think it’s very low to say the same player that carried him to the finals aren’t able to win in the finals. His style couldn’t work in the finals. Hugs the ball, can’t do anything without the ball in his hand. The other guys staying around to receive late clock passes.
English
@JoinAbbeyVC @NBA__Courtside Its got him to two wcf and an nba finals where he legit had no help. Don't know how his style isnt able to win in the playoffs. Like 24 lead the playoffs in points rebounds assists and
English
Rashad McCants believes Luka Doncic play style can’t win a championship:
“I don’t believe that’s great basketball. The late great Kobe Bryant said it best with James Harden. You can’t win just dominating at the top of the key. What Luka does is good for regular season basketball. It has been for the years he’s been in the league. When you talk about what happens when he goes into the playoffs and how teams are easily strategizing for his play, it’s easy to neutralize him. Boston exposed that. He don’t have Kyrie Irving right now to bail him out”

@JoinAbbeyVC @NBA__Courtside 😂🤣😂😂🤡🤣🤣 🤡 leflop worshipper Leflop will never at Kobe level leflop just a media propaganda flopping and foul baiting 🤡 why no one watches the NBA no more all rigged fraud fake no defense played on Lakers to keep 🤡 happy 😂 all rigged. Media got you brother
English
@ElijahP90239 @NBA__Courtside You can have debates without name calling. It shows low IQ when you do and you are too emotional about a topic that won’t even add anything to both our lives. It’s just a bant!
English
@JoinAbbeyVC @NBA__Courtside Search for what ?? U said wade was better than Kobe or even close. Where are those fax u was speaking of??? U don’t have any ? I know 😂. I’m not emotional. Especially over something as dumb as this. Dumb Kobe hater
English
@etetet1235689 @NBA__Courtside His style cannot win a chip. It’s a one man show and pass at the end of all tries. Yes, it works in regular season but it will take a lot of work from other team mates for them to go far or win overall. It’s a team game not one man show!
English
@JoinAbbeyVC @NBA__Courtside Lmaoo someone a luka hater. Go have fun when the Lakers cooking ur team
English
@ElijahP90239 @NBA__Courtside Go search for it! Emotional Kobe fans.. 1MVP GOAT!
English
@JoinAbbeyVC @NBA__Courtside What fact? Tell me the fact 😂
English
@BarryMurphy23 @NBA__Courtside No one! According to you, MVP is a joke since it’s not in favor of Kobe’s but every great player we considered GOATs, have had 3 or more.
English
@JoinAbbeyVC @NBA__Courtside Everybody had Kobe right next to Jordan saying he was 1b. Since he’s passed there has been a this narrative against him and what he done on the court. MVP is a fucking joke. If was was done on merit joker would be going for his 6th or 7th ffs
