@FlatlineJack @RomanCabanac Methinks,you're comparing, delicious apples,to regular grade pears !

I have never seen a country so demoralised as South Africa. There has always been this weird energy about politics or the future or hopes or dreams or despair or anxiety. Now it's just 'everything is shit'.

@Sthembi19281518 @RomanCabanac That's been the sinister plan,all along !

@RomanCabanac Propaganda and misinformation can do that.

@neversaydoge1 @RomanCabanac @IanMalcolm84 @GarethCliff @RenaldoGouws

@RomanCabanac Most countries nowadays. It's not about the facts, it's about who controls the information we receive and think it's the facts. Once you overcome your dining Kruger and see it, you can't unsee it. @IanMalcolm84 @GarethCliff @RenaldoGouws

@RomanCabanac Cometh the hour,cometh the man. Better days are neigh, MOST of us,are still here, and are a patiotic resilient lot. We've been through so much. We know what we know, GEES is in our DNA. We got this !

@uncle_sniper All Africans,need to pront, heed dire advices and warnings, of our dearly departed,late greats, statesman,and Ex President,Nelson Rohlihla Mandela,as well as Archbishop,Desmond Tutu:-

I don't think African leaders are in power to change the livelihood of their country try men. You can't convince me that they see how their own people are running away to other countries but still don't do anything to change the situations the country is facing. Why are they in power if they can't do a simple thing for the people who elected them? They are selfish and unpatriotic. Do better and make sure that your country is a safe heaven for your people.

@MxolisiBob Met some bureacrats,on my business travels, most of dem flew, just for the business class experience and frills.They went @ considerable taxpayers expense,to learn from tiger eastern econmy peers,yet here we r,decades l8tr, retrogressing,at an alarming rate,we goin down da tubes!

ANC made itself some power, it cannot defend itself on technical failures within itself. NP was a racist regime composed of soldiers then ANC composed of teachers ,pastors, political scientists, et al supposing they can run a government based on LIBERAL norms from UK Kanjani?

@MxolisiBob Enna ayyas lutto !

Danton Chidera: "Your tweet blames a country still in the early stages of its revolution, undermining the challenges and threats from those who refuse to see it succeed." Well, I’m sorry to break your heart, but I will not waste my time blaming French and American troops for whatever is going on in Mali. I will not even waste the ink of my pen blaming Elon Musk for allowing terrorists to use his Starlink services to launch terror attacks in Africa and across the entire Global South. Let the rest of the African activists who discuss baby politics continue to carry on this blame game. What we need is to use our energy and time to brainstorm on how to preserve Sovereignty in Africa and ensure that any true Revolution would survive against Imperialism. Even if you petition the UN today to maybe diplomatically punish Western nations for their atrocities in Africa all in the name of cheap resources, nothing will happen. Even if you write to all the Human Rights Organizations in the world to condemn Washington and Paris for the bloodshed in the Sahel, nothing will happen. You can cry to the ICC until you are head turns blue, you can wait for the African Union to issue another "strongly worded" statement of "concern" while our people are being slaughtered in the Sahel and beyond. It's all delusion. This is because the Imperialists are not people you beg or negotiate with. If you want to live peacefully with America or France, you have to impose that peace upon them by brute force. So that is why I focus my time analyzing the volatile situation in Mali and offering my own insights on the situation. I’m not calling out the French government or their embassies because I know it will not change anything. Extraction and plunder is the DNA of Imperialism. Your blaming them changes nothing. They will steal and continue to steal by design. And what do you mean by Mali being in the "early stages" of a revolution? This is more of an emotional statement. The Islamic Republic in Iran came to power in 1979; by 1980, they were already in a full-scale war with a Western-backed Saddam Hussein, who was raining missiles across their entire cities. This was not some hit-and-run terror attack where the casualties are market women, some few military vehicles burnt and a handful of officers killed in action; it was a total war where hundreds of thousands of Iranians lost their lives. Did they ask for "early stage" sympathy? No. They built a parallel military, the IRGC, and prepared to fight for forty years. There is no such thing as an "early stage" of a revolution. Once you cut off mineral supplies from Africa to the West, you have just announced a War, and you must be ready to fight that power from Day One. On the military part, Russia is a good asset to Mali, no doubt, and without their troops in the region, the scale of slaughter would have been much higher than reported. But they cannot depend on rented sovereignty. This was the fatal mistake that Syria made. Even though they had Russian troops stationed in the country providing air defense, and the IRGC and Hezbollah defending the periphery, the Assad regime still collapsed, and today, a terrorist is put in power and protected by the West. This was because in 2022, Russia had to prioritize its own survival. They withdrew their most advanced S-300 missile systems and redirected their elite Wagner veterans from the Syrian desert to the trenches of the Donbas when they launched their full-scale operation in Ukraine. They left the Syrian skies wide open because, at the end of the day, Moscow will always choose Moscow over Damascus. Furthermore, the American colony Israel launched heavy offensives on Hezbollah, decapitating their military structure and murdering their leader, Nasrallah. This kept Hezbollah's remnants fighting for their own lives in Lebanon. Iran was equally pinned down, harassed by Israeli strikes and internal threats. So essentially, all of the powers that were supposed to protect Syria from the rebels were too busy fighting American proxies (Israel and Ukraine). That was how Syria fell in just 11 days. Mind you, this Assad family regime had been in power for over 54 years, and yet they were still dependent on foreign bodyguards for protection. Yes, it is true that the Assad family tried to implement an Iranian-style leadership structure, but by then, it was too late. If a country falls in just 11 days, what do you think that means? It means the foundation was rotten. It means a great majority of the soldiers, top military officers, and government officials had already sold their souls or simply had no "Party" to be loyal to. They were not a "Party-Army" like the Chinese PLA or Iran's IRGC whose sole military doctrine is protecting the "Revolution". They were a collection of mercenaries and scared men who ran the moment their Russian and Iranian masters got distracted. Mali and the rest of the AES are obviously towing the same path and this is not good for Africa and the Global South in general.

South Africans deserve the South Africa we were all promised by ANC's Nelson Mandela and co in 1994. ANC and it's alliance partners just had to go fuck everything up. Freedom Day was the day the comrades started greedily feasting in the name of Our People..

@MxolisiBob Most of todays,so called august international bodies,r in reality old boys aristrocRATic billionaire bodies of POEPALLS conniving n scheming to persist in their grandiose plots,of murder mayhem n maximum resource expolitation,both human n natural !

What exactly do they discuss at G20? So people without basic infrastructure for water , sanitation and food must sit in one meeting with those who steal those basics to do what exactly? Africans love seats at the table , to do what with them?

@MxolisiBob I suggest,you record their memoirs on phone, and their vivid experiences,for posterity. History uncannily,repeats itself. You never know what's looming, esp in our topsy turvy,one New World Order !

It is very difficult, used to have these Sunday session with old guys who can teach one something based on experience , will be hosting them on my birthday, learnt too much from them . They were denied by the system , they met one at 29 , 9 years later was implementing, join us

@MxolisiBob On the money once again, but our current lot,promulgated a plethora of betting/ lotto's,n poor fellow compatriots, r sinking deeper in2 debt,in the forlorn hope of respite,from dire straits of punery n poverty.

Will never understand any Native who believes stokvels and burial societies are "stupid" , these institutions were created by Natives at the dawn of disciplines such as actuarial science and pure mathematics yet Natives could naturally understand that pooling risk is efficient

@MxolisiBob oso,many past experiences,2 relate n propog8,2 compact fully,in standard X !

Begriptoes 🤣🤣🤣🤣 , get your account on premier because one can comprehend but that SMS language is a problem. One can express self without too many words , no need for more words but you need them

@MxolisiBob Retired SASSA pensioner,have tons to say, Alas,limited resources,to afford X Premier !Appreciate the candour!

@FaraiMazhindu @sagewilyam The latter failure,stems from entirely from mimicking,the dastardly prior regime, utilizing inappropriate unqualified people, in fields that were,and are these days too,far beyond them,but dey the first, to claim all the benefits,of the not inconsiderable,pay grade.Go figure !

@sagewilyam Developing a national AI framework is a straightforward process when entrusted to qualified subject matter experts. The issue here is not the complexity of the technology, but rather the failure of leadership to assign competent individuals to execute the task.

It is clear that the South African government lacks capable individuals to oversee the technology sector. Solly Malatsi, the Minister of Communications and Digital Technologies, withdrew the first draft of the National AI Policy after revelations emerged that it contained fictitious sources in its reference list. It is evident that AI-generated citations were included without proper verification. This failure is not a mere technical issue, it has severely compromised the integrity and credibility of the draft policy. This incident perfectly illustrates why governance should be based on meritocracy. Imagine the deep embarrassment of a national policy being drafted using hallucinated AI text in a country that possesses so many highly educated people and subject matter experts. No wonder there is continuous chaos surrounding Bitcoin and Starlink. They do not understand innovation, they only understand extortion. reuters.com/world/africa/s…

@MxolisiBob Esteemed Sir,Give it a rest, Ostrich,head in sand Neanderthal Dinosauros BROODaBOND species, parading as humans,soon 2 be extinct, r too naive,2 see the whole picture, since many can't even read, let alone read btwn da lines, even primary school comprehension/begripstoets,101 !

So it did not cross your mind that from 1913 to 1991, no Native could own or lease property in South Africa and from 1996 , a liberal constitution was adopted making it very difficult for any Native to own something basic such as residential property. What books are you reading?

@AardvarkBloody Centuries of brutal exploitation n oppression, has inevitable led,to "Chickens coming to roost" !

We're paying for Eskom wastage, cost overruns, a bloated militant workforce, radical incompetence, decades of political interference, astronomical corruption and cartel extortion - in a monpoly of an essential service. That's not a business, it's tyranny.

@AntonKock3 @ShakesMashaba_

@ShakesMashaba_ I agree. Very uncomfortable covos need to be had. But the results will benefit us all. We talk. We understand. We act. Together as a country, separate cultures working together. This way, we all thrive. Under Rule of Law.

Correct. Africans must introspect as to why there isn't a single developed country in the world that is majority black. Mind you places like Singapore were colonised but are now fully developed. Uncomfortable convos must be asked.

@ShakesMashaba_ it's not culture(camouflaged as raciam), 1% New World Order AristocRAT billionaire, r too busy,in cahoots with their stooges of all hues,perpetuallung repressing,abundant human and natural resources,of the Global South

SA had the opportunity to become the first black majority first world country in 1994 and since declined in terms of per capita GDP. Perfect example of how having infrastructure is insufficient if the culture isn't right.
