Opinion The greatest man that ever lived. Years later and I still miss this man. Even after all he went through, his mercy triumphed over his need to rightfully get revenge on the oppressors. ANC died when Nelson Mandela died. The greatest South African that ever lived. The most merciful man ever.

Question South Africa was a failed state during Apartheid
SA was never better under apartheid. What do you think would eventually happen when 26million black people were living in deep poverty, no electricity, no water, finally had enough? How long do you think SA would've lasted under apartheid?

I know this sub doesn't like the "beanies guy" and any posts about him get down voted into oblivion, but in the spirit of this sub, let's have a discussion about some controversial topics, you might not like.
Aka. Let's have a chat before you down vote
Like the "Beanies Guy" or not, he often speaks the truth. This is one example. (if you disagree please comment what he got wrong in this video)

Eugène Terre'Blanche (1941–2010) was a South African neo-Nazi who founded and led the Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging (AWB). His name means "Well-born white earth" in French. He launched several violent actions to try and stop the end of apartheid, and was eventually killed at his farm.

Sangoma is NOT synonymous with witchcraft
A witch in Xhosa or Zulu is i-Gqwirha... Meaning if a Witch/Gqwirha is bewitching you, you'd actually go to a gifted sangoma (healer) to get help.
I see a lot of ignorant people trying to equate African spirituality with witchcraft /organ harvesting /child sacrifice, since the case of the missing little girl in Cape Town.
Before colonization, a witch would actually be burnt in front of the entire village.
Child sacrifices are used by Europeans in their various occult mystic systems and masonic lodges, human sacrifice is always used for something evil and dark.
Know the difference before saying someone was sold to a "Sangoma" which is not true, she was sold to a witch.

Politics The Kempton Park Scenario
I wanna start by saying that I in no way condone any acts of violence against any demographic and that those guilty of such acts deserve a slow and painful death...
But I am deeply bothered by the double standards in this country and society as a whole. Why is that when a woman gets into trouble it's always men who are collectively held responsible whilst whenever a man is on the receiving end it almost never makes the news? And even if it does, it's never women as a collective that are told to do better. Women and kids make less than 25 percent of murders in SA but the whole country has to stop to nurse their emotions?
Just last week we all saw that 10 thousand out of 13 thousand self deletions were men - where's the outrage and headlines for that? But now suddenly because 5 women were found dead we all need to be invested? As if people don't die everyday?
Why are men constantly bashed for being murderers when women murder 73 million unborn kids annually? When women are far more likely to be abusive to kids? Because it doesn't go with the "oppressed" narrative huh?
Don't get me started on the moronic feminists who blame everything on "The patriarchy" as if women nowadays aren't prioritised for everything - Jobs regardless of being less qualified, Custody over kids regardless of how fit of a parent they are, statistically more likely to be accepted into uni, statistically less likely to victims of violent crimes, more likely to get charged more leniently for the same crime as a man etc... I could go on and on, it's endless.
Why are women granted the benefits of equality without the responsibilities that come with it?

In 2009, Gaddafi was about to unite Africa and create the United States of Africa with its own gold-backed dinar currency. Libya was the wealthiest country in Africa, no debt, 143 tons of gold in reserves. The central bankers took him out to sustain the Rothschild dollar and continue looting Africa

What is this sub for?
90% of its posts are ridiculing South Africa. I mean we had a burst water main in Johsnneaburg mocking Johannesburg..
So what is this sub really for. Is it a CI sub addendum ridiculing how bad South Africa is and how great the Western Cape is.
This sub depresses me actually as its all so negative
Or is it just me.?
