I wake up each morning and go to bed at night with the unshakeable belief and faith that God is coming to my rescue.
.@MagleraDoeBoy help!
I’m asking this in good faith: how can a fairly new democracy be considered ‘Old South Africa?’
What does he mean by ‘The first defining 32 years’ @Mavumavu91? Is he just going to pretend that apartheid, which, to this day, still has a huge impact on our voting decisions, did not happen?
you and your fake pastors/therapists are next @Mzansimagic 🙏🏽
Another thing I often think about, is the extent of the role that social media platforms play in our democracy. The hostile manner in which people talk to each other on here everyday makes political organising impossible.

There’s an easy cure for this and it’s called medieval peasant-maxxing. You need to be building fires and playing festive carols. You need to be taking long walks, learning crafts and listening to stories read aloud. You need to be loading up on cheese and breads and pies.
I do think the hyper focus on the Black middle class electorate, who barely make enough numbers to effect change in suburbia, is another indicator of the gross negligence & infantilisation of the regular SAn in the township & village.

Being right years ahead of others isn’t nearly as satisfying as people think. Nobody apologizes for treating you like a crazy. They just come back years later, repeating what you told them as if it’s some groundbreaking revelation because they finally heard it from someone else.
I don’t think so, but the possibility of my seniors’ perspective being different from mine matters to me.

You guys say radio is dead, you listen to amapiono to and from work. You don't watch news, it's Netflix 24/7. You don't know who Sakina is. You are on tik tok for dance challenges. You are on social media twars. So yea, sorry you didn't check your voting station.
Kwasuka lokho, and she is likely not the only individual experiencing this issue. These are local elections meant to address the needs of residents within their own municipalities. Requiring her to vote in a different city for a mayor who will not represent her interests raises serious concerns about the effectiveness and fairness of the electoral process the IEC administers! @IECSouthAfrica, shame on you!
I think communication is only one of its many problems. To (apprehensively) quote the bible: “You brood of vipers! How can you speak good when you’re evil? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.”
My article in @dailymaverick today on the ANC's suboptimal local government election campaign. It was hard to write, but there needs to be some frank introspection. dailymaverick.co.za/opinioni…
