[@banimayeng3849]

As a practising cultural doctor myself of 43 years I like what uBaba says that "the wealth or wisdom of life comes transfer of knowledge. What I just shared pertains to the Setswana idioms: Botlhale jwa phala botswa phalaneng - an Adult can also learn form a Child, and Ngwana wa di kgomo ithute g molodi o gopole motlhang amalata a bolola, that is children of wealth learn methods of creating wealth bearing in mind the time time they are no more..

[@DesignThinkingWithLungile]

@@Dotata2009I don’t think he is against Msholozi. If you have listened to him in the past, he has been more critical of Ramaphosa than Zuma. I think many of us find ourselves looking at the ANC through the lens of the leader we resonate with or whom we think aligns with our political ideologies. The crux of his analysis wich makes him different from many political analysts is that he often focuses on the behind the scenes developments of our political environment. Many tend to follow the headlines and base their analysis purely on what is reported in the mainstream media.

What ramaphosa did to him and compare the situation we are in currently, ANC veterans should to advocate on behalf of Ramaphosa and face the truth ramaphosa is killing the country.

Gogo Matshiqi has spent a great deal of time trying to discredit Zuma in a subtle way. The evidence is clear that Zuma is not a friend of the Western forces and they hate him. It is not fair for Aubrey to intimate Zuma for a spy while protecting Ramadollar when there is no evidence to support it. He is also insinuating that Zuma is a tribalist when he knows very well that MK is only 6 weeks old and the Zulu king has not even endorsed MK. This podcast should be opened for a debate if people integrity will be attacked without opposition.

[@ntoimjiyako1777]

Exactly, very subtle indeed. His past hatred of JZ was his main hidden theme. He does not even give him benefit of doubt.

I liked the part when he subtlety laughed when he insinuates that JZ uses the MK to be seen as if he is radical. BabuMatshiqi you were so biased. This interview should have been an explicit opinion of uBabuMatshiqi on JZ and MK. He was not supposed to ask people to go and vote because with this biasness he is decampaigning MK.

[@SiyamthandaMsomi-oc2to]

The thing is. Zuma is indeed radical. Just that there are powers that be that hindered him from executing during his presidency. He has always spoken about radical economic transformation, nuclear, land expropriation. That is all radical so I didn’t quite understand the insinuation that he is acting as if he is. If he was a good puppet to WMC then they wouldn’t have held a smear campaign and corporate media propaganda against him. As for the current prez. I think it’s obvious that he’s not even trying to be radical. Look at him campaigning in spaza shops owned by immigrants

[@SiyamthandaMsomi-oc2to]

100% and that Zulu narrative to me was kinda off. It’s not our fault that Zulus are the way we are. We just don’t want wool pulled over our eyes. Not to say that everyone else does but we just operate from a bit of that arrogance which we need because it’s not all sunshine and rainbows especially with a certain type of people that always seeks to exploit

[@lwazimjiyako8763]

Exactly Siyamthanda. I think most people think that for one to be radical you must demonstrate that you are a scholar of Western Education, in particular, precisely because we are taught Western education or what I call Western socio-cultural cognition pedagogy. Given that JZ did not attend formal (Western) education he does not fit to be taken seriously by people like uBabuMatshiqi hence he laughs subtly on JZ in this regard. Are we not supposed to label all those who resist Western ideologies as radicals? This is what JZ is demonstrating. Our South African Kings like King Moshoeshoe, King Cetshwayo and others fought against Whites, resisting their their influence or 'land thieving'. To me they fit the definition of a radical, because they were not protesting but resisting white domination. Regardless that they did not receive Western socio-cultural cognition pedagogy. Zuma talks of Radical Economic Transformation. So, why is not seen to be radical? The answer to our so-called educated Blacks, is that he did not 'go to school'.

[@sicelomakwayiba2457]

​@@SiyamthandaMsomi-oc2toTo talk about being radical doesn't make you radical, that's what Zuma does, talk. He had a power to implement some of the things he always talks about, but he didn't, that's why he say he tries to appear radical. In short words, he is a Populist.

[@edmundsishange3608]
