A few years ago, I would have said other places are 'bland' compared to SA. However, happy to be bland, move forward, be safe, and live in South Africa under the ANC. I live abroad, support Orania and self-determination and will push it abroad working in the shadows if you want to call it that. Self-determination is our future. I support the choice of the rest who want to live in a failed state. However, I firmly believe that if you're in an abusive relationship with an abusive partner, you part your ways. I am friends with people of other cultures, but closer friends with people of all races that share my western values. Africa is a different mindset, the world still needs to wake up as everything is done through western lenses. TIA

"A robber Baron under whose wing you could cluster and hope he can beat the other robber Barons". This exactly describes our political party system - although Mr Johnson meant it in a totally different context. If South Africa is to survive as a country and a nation, we HAVE to abandon this gangster style political party system, which is based on populism and self-interest. The Executive should be experts in their field elected by the various fraternities. MP's should be rooted in their geographic constituencies. Parliament should be managed by an independent body. The President should be elected by the entire nation. Affiliation to any political party should be a disqualification to public office. We should base our future on quality - not populism.

South Africa fell apart the moment it was colonized and apartheid played its music. We are 30 years in "democracy" that has been nothing either than criminal activity from governmental level. The country is in shambles not because of only corruption etc but also the aftermath of apartheid. We are now facing that music, quite sadly that things are still to get worse than they are now. Who can fix the world? No human has ever, then what makes you think there can be a human who can ever do so? The mindset of thinking that things can ever go right with humans feel so authorized and entitled is what killed and still kills every human today!

I think is is a terrible mistake to think that the wind down of this country will continue at the slow steady pace that we have seen so far. Look at other countries to see what does happen when at some point the social compact breaks. As long as there is hope people will usually still try and remain in the social compact, but as soon as life is harder than most can abide the social fabric tends to break with everyone at the same time. Venezuela is a good case in point. The day before the country descended into chaos was the same sort of day as the previous 365 days. Food and security in my view are the ones that eventually break this country. We also forget that Eskom is not about keeping the lights on, Eskom is about water, no Eskom no water. The middle class has there solar panels UPSs and generators but that does not remove you from the absolute dependence of Eskom. If things like truck attacks don't get brought under control food deliveries will be at risk. We cannot have parts of the country that are lawless and it as approved of by the government. The are starving so its OK. When will it not be ok, when we we are starving as well. We cannot keep rolling societal norms back with some form of its ok because they had a good reason. Society has rules and it is one rule for everyone. By allowing some to break the rules it is just an invitation for more to break the rules, going down that road will also end very badly. The cost of living cannot be sent higher and higher to cover up the inadequacies of the ANC. The cost of electricity is a case in point, Eskom has broken the system 4 times and 4 times the funding to fix it is from the users and every time so far they have managed to not only not fix the problem but in all cases have managed to make the original problem worse. Its not about the politics and the hope that will change, politics is not the solution, if it was this would have been corrected years ago. Hoping for some or other political solution that is going to catapult SA to some new dawn. Politicians the world over only have a single job, to make sure they or one of there cohorts is elected in the next election. its not about right or wrong. Coalitions fail continually in South Africa. Do people really think this will change when the ANC drops bellow 50 percent. Its not the big things that will cause problems its day to day life that will start the problems.

The decline is by design. How & why is this happening? how did it happen in Zim? what does the decline serve? Being #1 on the GINI coefficient is going to have consequences The Banks & the Mining houses could have held the political parties to account. Mineral wealth is the only value that Globalists want... all other industries only serve the people and hence, the other industries are destined to decline...Agriculture, manufacturing, and tourism can be done elsewhere and the banks still win... only the minerals keep the mining sector in place. Who rules the Zulu? who affords the Zulu Royals? who finances the ANC & the EFF & the DA? - It becomes obvious that the decline is engineered and it has a purpose. Look at ZIm for example... Mugabe threatened farming and destabilised the sector until it collapsed, he did the same with manufacturing but he never seized mining or mineral-bearing lands, mining never lost a day in Zim. So the intelligentsia left Zim, effectively this removed intelligent opposition, controlling the little food that was left could prevent any popular uprising... South Africa has seen the education system collapse such that RSA is # 1 for maths & science illiteracy and university students cannot read or spell... there is no future opposition to white-collar crime -- This is the cornerstone of communist control. When the MSM will not report the truth and the MSM do not oppose corruption, when the judiciary consistently fail to bring corruption to justice then you know that this decline is more than just a greedy political party. Someone wants society to move to the Cape coast, I can see Gauteng disappearing with the Rand Water Board and I can see mass-migration to the coast - why?

This would be a logical step for voter's to consider because it is clear that the ANC regime is imploding and them winning in 2024 is just going to make things worse. South Africa's voter's have proved that they are incredibly naive because they have returned the ANC since 1994 and always believed their promises. The same applies to voters pre 1994, by believing that the National Party would look after them in a new dispensation. "De Klerk sal dit nooit doen." I remember hearing this. Yet despite ample evidence that they were not very honest in their intentions and were going to hand over power to the ANC no matter what was the outcome of the negotiations. The one man one vote in a unitary state model was chosen and the rest is history.
