South African men are like Afghan men. If it were up to you people, we’d be unseen, unheard and incapable of saying no.The entitlement is identical.

You see his name on the scoresheet and immediately think "screamer" who comes to mind?

Be honest with me please. What would be more satisfying for you as a hatewatchers. Seeing Spurs get relegated or seeing Arsenal bottle all four competitions and go trophyless again?

Be brutally honest, what's one thing Americans are simply better at than the rest of the world??

“The fuel price is biting hard, but look around, let us thank God together, that you are better off than those in Kenya and other African countries” - Tinubu tells Nigerians

Men are slowly hitting 35, unmarried and unbothered. Why?

A hypothetical scenario. It's war time. South Africa has mandatory conscription for all able bodied and refusal to join the troops at the frontlines results in prison time (let's say 1 year). Prison or war?

Okay I know we were exaggerating about Rele but now it’s getting real😭he’s becoming the best player in the country right in front of us😭

Israeli Channel 13 has set a countdown clock for Trump's deadline against Iran.

Is Cyril Ramaphosa malicious or just inept?

Mossad was paying Future to rap about Israeli bitches

The amount of passes Kanye gets by the black community is insane. No backbone, no self-esteem

Do African leaders realize that if they gave us growth of over 10% per year for 10 or more years they would rule even from wheelchairs and graves? We wouldn't even need elections .

“Borderless Africa” doesn’t mean erasing borders but rather It means freedom to move, trade, work, and connect across Africa…

Those accusing us of “defending illegal foreigners” do so not because they have ever seen us defending illegality but because they deliberately distort our positions. 1. On Stilfontein and the zama-zamas Their accusation stems from our rejection of calls for the state to effectively starve zama-zamas, including undocumented workers, to death by sealing mines with hundreds, if not thousands, trapped underground. When we insist that the government cannot resort to extrajudicial killings, they twist this into a claim that we are “defending illegal foreigners.” Rejecting inhumanity is not defending illegality; it is defending basic human rights and the rule of law. 2. On crime and violence They claim we are silent when zama-zamas terrorise communities. This is simply false. SAFTU has consistently condemned all forms of crime and called on the state to act decisively against perpetrators. But when presented with these statements, they ignore them because their aim is not truth but propaganda. 3. On exploitation of undocumented workers They further allege that we are silent when employers exploit undocumented labour in sectors like agriculture, trucking, hospitality, security, and cleaning. Again, this is dishonest. SAFTU has clear national congress resolutions condemning precisely this practice, where employers deliberately use undocumented workers to undermine wages and evade labour laws. Our unions actively conduct inspections and expose these abuses, often covered by the public broadcaster. Yet this reality is conveniently ignored to win a propaganda war. The real issue We cannot reason with those committed to misunderstanding us. Today, in their logic: a) Anyone who refuses to join vigilante groups assaulting people in the streets, burning homes and vehicles, is “defending illegal foreigners.” b) Anyone who rejects tribal chauvinism and refuses to sing divisive slogans that pit Africans against Africans is “defending illegal foreigners.” c) Anyone who refuses to scapegoat migrants for a crisis caused by capitalism, failed policies, unemployment, poverty, and inequality is “defending illegal foreigners.” This is not an honest debate: it is a political project rooted in xenophobia, racism, and tribalism. What they demand is simple: that we abandon facts, principles, and join them in scapegoating the most vulnerable, just as extreme right-wing forces do globally. We refuse. Asizi! We are writing an opinion in the Sowetan that will outline the crisis fuelling this atmosphere.
