The private sector are a bit like The DA we need to keep a foot in the door of BEE so gov dont bail on us. However if all bailed on the gov shit at the same time then gov would be out the window because the people need the jobs they have and nothing not even BEE shit will stop them from holding onto what they have and supporting the growth of the economy that will provide more jobs. Business is arse creeping with ANC wich represents 34% of SA and not the country.

[@hanredutoit953]

Thank god for Rob Hersov standing up for us. We need more people of this caliber

[@faldieladevries8755]

He will stand up for you because like him you want to cling into white privilege. You whites must be thankful that the negotiations was lead by great minds of the ANC that prevented a civil war or a military take over. I support the Freedom Charter and the SA Constitution

[@Trenchwarsoldier-x5v]

Rob is a snake! He built his wealth by stealing it from whites, all of stellenbosch did this and Rob himself admitted to it

[@josedasilva9658]

My 2 cents, this is the reason that the ANC/EFF/MK don't want Starlink in this country, because it would open the Internet to the majority of the citizens and make them more informed of what is really happening in South Africa.

[@swartkat4394]

I think that's part of it, but I think it's more 'no more donations' from Vodacom and MTN, because our internet is some of the most expensive in the world.

[@JDAfrica]

Yup! 100% … the last thing the ANC want is voters asking “clever questions” That’s the reason South Africa has the highest data rates in the world, and the lowering of education rates… virtually all students are illiterate and innumerate. When data price comes down, online learning goes up - it’s been shown again and again in Asia, India and Europe.

[@АЛЕНОЯАПАЛЛИ]

I thought that internet is already opened to everyone in SA. Am I wrong?

[@JDAfrica]

@@АЛЕНОЯАПАЛЛИSouth Africa has the highest data charges in the world, with coverage not available in many remote parts of the country… Elons Starlink would have been far cheaper, and works everywhere … and that education and absolute to access videos of past statements by politicians, see thousands of people speaking out about governments and wasteful spending… can change the ANC voters minds and get them to ask hard questions. I’m Not sure you are aware, local news is not allowed to cover protests and riots on TV … it’s a way for ANC to control the narrative.

[@edwarddossantos9089]

140+ raced based laws, why is South Africa not under sanctions? Why is South Africa still participating in international sports?

[@Ryskorrel]

There won't be sanctions because Robert Mugabe proved that it only hurts the people on the ground instead of the criminals. You would need a government with an ounce of integrity and humanity for sanctions to work.

[@judysanan7376]

A great question!!!! Why aren't the rest of the world dealing with the racist ANC in the same as they did against the apartheid government??? Hypocrisy to say the least!!!

@@judysanan7376 my comment got deleted, but basically there is a study that shows that San-ctions were only effective for about 13% of cases. The reasons for that you need to read up because truths get deleted here.

[@bradleynewall7541]

I reckon it is happening... organically, many are waking up, from all cultures across the board... so I have hope for South Africa... we really are an awesome nation... it's our politicians who are creating the problems in South Africa ... we normal South Africans have learnt to respect each others cultures, we are used all used to each other... Once the South African Republican party starts many South Africans will follow this party...

[@bradleynewall7541]

Trump has come at the right time... There is a political shift happening in the West . The younger generation are becoming more right wing conservative... And Trump represents this new generation of people... that are waking up... Abraham Lincoln was the right person at his time, America was going through political instability between the North and South... Lincoln and Republican party shifted America into the New World at their time, and industrialized America... America today is also going through a political shift like it was during the 1860s Trump has come at the right time when this shift is happening

[@petert4227]

When Zimbabwes started with its Land Claims law, business and civil society said nothing, then it became too late which is why half their population live in SA. This is what happens when good men say nothing. SA only voted 40% for ANC and they are treating the GNU with contempt. When political parties instigate land grabs, this is a form of expropriation when the authorities do nothing.

[@AmberjoyJohnson]

They sure are treating the GNU with contempt...

I maintain swimming pools and have the privilege of dealing with domestic helpers ....Ive been asking them one simple question What happened to the RAIN QUEEN ? Horrified to find out they have no idea what I am talking about ........ My 16 year old HOME SCHOOLED son knows more about African culture then his friends educated in MAIN STREAM SCHOOL the ANC has managed to purposefully erode TRIBAL IDENTITY in the name of WOKE Rainbowisem .........and its a shame .....

[@lizecoetzee2250]

They don't care about anything else than their own pockets.

[@supremeclientele83]

Not sure if you're referring to the slimy politicians or the greedy elite billionaire class but you're statement would be correct either way. Unless you are part of the top 5%, cutting taxes for the wealthy and deregulation will only make you, as labour, poorer. Hey, maybe you will have a job - yippie or maybe you will get layed off 😂. America is on the verge of collapse because of their billionaire class. Trump, who Rob loves so much and who is great from an entertainment standpoint, is overseeing the collapse of the empire. There is nothing that he can do. He is part of that class of people. His administration is one of billionaires, who can't curb their greed enough to realize that they're squeezing the hell out of their working class. All they do is lobby politicians and have politicians dance to their tune. All politicians want is money and votes. Can't campaign if Elon Musk doesn't fund you, hey. What does Elon want? Hmmmm. America is getting chomped by China, Trump is a kick of a dying horse. Rob is an extention of that. These people are so blind or just don't care but the phrase, "The poor will eat the rich" is becoming ever more real in America. When America sneezes the rest of the world catches a cold. China is coming.

The EFF is just a facade to justify his presence. He makes horrifying statements from time to time - so everyone prefers ANC in power... Its all a very carefully thought out plan... Thats slowly unraveling at the seams

[@dionoliveira4058]

It's handed down propaganda that is divisive and dystopian followed up with socialist and divisive race laws under DEI. And the promise of free land and a free life.The ANC have been pushing divisive racism for over 30 years.

[@miguel--jesus]

Agree with Rob. Time for business leaders to put pressure on this government, just like Elon is doing and say: no to "reverse apartheid" (BEE and it's racial laws).

[@miguel--jesus]

A sound MPC like coalition representing all South Africans, working towards a common set of principles, is probably the answer. Not a single party.
