If your idea of political analysis is to say 'blacks are...' or 'whites are...', you are by definition racist, because you're claiming that skin-colour determines someone's views or actions, and that people with a given skin colour mostly think or act the same. This is not true.

I'm not sure how many people are registered to vote in other countries, but let's say, for sake of argument, that it is 30,000. That's around half the votes required for one seat in parliament. But in reality, they'll only get to influence half that.

South African political debates are caught in a binary trap.
Everything is a “gotcha!”
Do you realise many things can be true, done and believed at the same time?
Dump your binary narrowness.
Embrace spectrum thinking.

That scene, where they burnt our flag, was the moment I realised that this was enough.
No matter what the differences are between political parties in an election, the act of burning our flag to gain votes is tantamount to treason.
They burnt our flag.
They are not defending it

Here’s an election truth:
It’s not the party that u should focus on.
It’s the leadership.
It’s the institutional & personal intelligence of the leadership.
It’s the values.
It’s the humility, wisdom & courage.
It’s why we failed.
It’s the leadership.

Love yourself. But also analyze and be critical of how you think, act & behave. Self love without self awareness is useless. Be accountable.

Virgin Active will now allow men who call themselves women to use women’s facilities including showers and changerooms. They say this is about dignity, which apparently women aren’t entitled to. Tell your friends.

By & By the greatest issue with any best selling book about RSA Politics or Business or even corruption is that even a best seller will only be read by less than 1% of the population (600,000)

The consensus is that in RSA a best seller sells a mere 5000+ books
