@darwintojesus Actually to Atheists it matters even more, everything matters more. If you believe you have only one life then everything matters, there is no life after death.

If you’re an atheist it makes no sense to be obsessive about politics. Nothing matters.

There’s something seriously off about how people think right now. We are living in an age of unreason. Truth doesn’t matter. Context doesn’t matter. What matters is who is louder, meaner, more self righteous, and more “right.” “I don’t like the West” has turned into “I hate the West,” and half of you didn’t even arrive there through actual thinking. It’s just the trend. You question the West, you’re informed. You hate it, suddenly you’re morally superior. Groundbreaking. And now we’ve reached peak clown behaviour. People hate America and Trump so much that they’ll swing all the way to the other extreme and start defending regimes like the IRGC as if that’s some kind of moral stance. I’m sorry… what? I genuinely don’t know how some of you have the energy to hate people you’ve never met this much. Are you not tired? Do you not have actual lives to live? And the self hate? Even worse. People tearing down their own societies like it’s a personality trait, without thinking for two seconds about what replaces it. Let’s be real. You can criticise the US. You can dislike Trump. You can question Western foreign policy. None of that requires you to defend regimes that have brutally suppressed their own people, killed thousands, and silenced basic freedoms. Calling yourself pro human rights while doing that is not principled. It’s performative. This whole “if you don’t support one side, you must support the other” mentality is one of the dumbest things to come out of modern discourse. Not everything is a team sport. Sometimes both sides deserve criticism. Sometimes multiple things are true at once. There is a third option. It’s called thinking for yourself. And here’s the uncomfortable truth people don’t want to admit. A lot of you shouting about how evil the West are doing so while benefiting from the very systems built on Western ideals. Freedom of speech. Individual rights. Rule of law. Without those, you don’t get women’s rights as we know them today. You don’t get to openly criticise governments. You don’t get to sit online and post these takes without consequences. The West is not perfect. It has made serious mistakes. It should be criticised. But this blind, bandwagon hatred is not critical thinking. It’s noise. And then you look at politics and it’s just embarrassing. How is any country supposed to function when both sides refuse to meet in the middle? It’s constant sabotage, constant outrage, constant point scoring. It honestly looks like South Africa. Too busy fighting for power and votes, not enough actually fixing anything. Modern politics is disgusting. I used to hate Trump too. Not because I had properly looked into anything, but because I listened to what everyone else said and let that shape how I thought. That’s the reality for a lot of people. I don’t like him. I don’t know him. He’s not my president. But he’s not the worst America has had. If anything, he’s one of the only ones in the last 20 years who actually has some backbone. He doesn’t bow to elites, he’s unpredictable, and while everyone else is busy shouting, he’s playing a different game. What happens in the US creates a ripple effect globally, so yes, it matters. But this level of division doesn’t feel organic anymore. It feels manufactured. When you work in systems, you start to see patterns. The outrage cycles. The constant division. It keeps people distracted, angry, and easy to control. And it’s working. There is so much hate from both sides now that truth doesn’t even matter anymore. At some point, citizens in their own countries need to wake up. Nothing works without unity. Nothing changes without unity. You don’t have to agree on everything, but you need to be able to sit down, debate, and actually solve problems. We are supposed to be adults, but we act like children. Debate, don’t argue. To the left, stop talking in circles and bending reality to fit a narrative. To the right, stop obsessing over optics and trying to win people over like it’s a game. Some of you were on the right track, but even that is slipping into your own version of performative nonsense. And then there’s Israel. The level of blind hatred doesn’t even make sense half the time. Again, no nuance, no context, just another situation turned into a team sport where people pick a side and run with it regardless of facts. The world is not black and white. You don’t have to worship the West. You don’t have to support Trump. You don’t have to blindly back any country or regime. But acting like everything Western is evil while excusing or defending objectively worse systems just to spite it is not intelligence. It’s not compassion. It’s not progress. It’s regression dressed up as moral superiority. Human race, wake up before it’s too late. #ThinkForYourself #CriticalThinking #AgeOfUnreason #NoMoreTribalism #TruthMatters #WakeUp #ModernPolitics #GlobalPolitics #HumanRights #Unity

@mindoverweaknes @grok what movie or TV show is this?

Many marriages are like this. Men sacrifice their personal life for the family but women want more and more. Nothing is good enough for them.

Women: Men don't want to date anymore. Men don't chase us anymore. Also women:

Dear @GaytonMcK, are you suffering from amnesia?

@UbuntuUnifier @steenekampcarl I did vote DA, but they went against everything they campaigned on and everything I stand for.

@CroukampS @steenekampcarl To be fair. He doesn't give a fuck what you think. You weren't going to vote for them anyway

Wow!!!! The VF+ just picked up a whole 0,02% boost from the Referendum Party!!! Truly groundbreaking stuff!!!

@5Solas2 So a country's constitution is also 'divine"? So the Qur'an is also God made by this logic? Also do you want to apply this logic to all the other religious writings out there?

💯

Racism explained very well ! Libs should take notes

😂 Oh look, it's Starlink Kimmy, the self-hating White South African EFF cheerleader, still desperately pretending to be a revolutionary while tweeting from the comfort of whatever safe, formerly-White suburb she hasn't fled yet. "White South Africans have never apologised or repenting (it's repented, Kimmy) for apartheid." Huh? Anyways. Sweetie, the entire country bent over backwards for 30+ years. Truth and Reconciliation Commission where Whites confessed sins like it was group therapy, affirmative action that turned merit into a hate crime, BEE that enriched corrupt cadres while the economy circles the drain, land "reform" that's mostly just handing farms to people who then starve them, and endless guilt-tripping in schools, media, and every government speech. You said "sorry" so many times, you ran out of knees to kneel on. Meanwhile, the ANC/EFF rainbow nation delivered: - Power cuts so bad even the hospitals run on generators - One of the world's highest murder rates, mostly Black-on-Black, but hey, blame the bench that said "Europeans only." Whatever yanks your chain. - Corruption that makes apartheid look like amateur hour. - White farmers slaughtered in record numbers while you lot scream "kill the Boer" at rallies. And now you want "reparations" for slavery (ended 1834, before most "White South Africans" ancestors even arrived), colonialism (which dragged a tribal backwater into the 20th century), and apartheid (which built the only functional infrastructure on the continent)? Kimmy, the real apartheid today is the one where competent Whites are ethnically cleansed from jobs, farms, and safety, all while you, a privileged White woman, virtue-signal for clicks and book sales to the very people who would chew you up and spit you out the second the last skilled taxpayer leaves. You didn't "repent." You just joined the looters' queue, hoping the hyenas eat your fellow Whites first. How's that working out for Cape Town's water, Johannesburg's sewage rivers, or the potholes big enough to swallow your hypocrisy whole? Keep tweeting, Kim. The ancestors you're betraying are laughing in their graves, and the future South Africa you're helping build will have plenty of benches again. They'll just say "Competent People Only" because that's the new "Whites Only" once the talent's all gone. Run along now. Your next chapter on "decolonising" math or electricity probably won't write itself. PS: We don't do the apology thing for things we don't do.

The most accurate depiction of South African politics, since 1994. 😂🔥

@HeidiGiokos Heidi, we know you're lying here, you know you're lying, you know we know you're lying, we know you know we know you're lying, yet you continue to lie. Why? And you wonder why people don't trust you to report the news honestly.

@sherwiebp @grok where does South Africa's economy rank in the world?

President Trump forces France to disinvite President Ramaphosa from G7 summit scheduled for June. France currently holds the Presidency of G7. novanews.co.za/trump-forces-f…

@ShweleNgelosi @News24 Stupidity like this is why the SA Government is going to go up the FAFO scale.

@News24 Those losers can go to hell!!!The mad man Trump too

@bensmithrugby Ironically😂😂 If the AB's had Pollard in their team they would have been World Champions. And if the Springboks did not they would not have made it out of the Semi's.

The thing is Handre Pollard can’t hold a candle to Beauden Barrett as a player. Tries, try assists, line breaks, defence, try savers, Barrett takes the entire cake. This is at Test level. It’s not even close. Pollard became a great goal kicker and that’s all there is.

@LadyM1306 I am failing to understand why you can call him a settler, but dare he use similar words in return he could face jail time. Do you think that is equal freedom of speech for all South Africans?

I’m failing to understand why this settler isn’t being charged for treason. Funny how this settler realised that his nonsense didn’t work and has now changed his tune. He needs to be dealt with.

@gndzongana @pookiepolls Yeah because that worked great for the rest of Africa. It went from "kick out all the whites and we will prosper" to giving the Western World a checklist of things people need to survive.

@pookiepolls If Dutch colonial settlers weren't welcomed.

South Africa would be the best country in the world, if there was just no more ...

Some people have the audacity to tell us to just move on. HOW?

@jsteenhuisen Easy, bring back the commando system.

Good Afternoon, South Africa. I met with the Minister of Police and AgriSA today to address issues of rural and communal safety, including cross-border stock theft and the improvement of the nationwide CCTV network. Together we can beat rural crime. 🇿🇦

@barstoolsports The fact that he flexed afterwards makes it so much more embarrassing.
