Arent you a native black south african?

Why are you referring to yourself as "them"

Is English your 2nd language?
Yeah, I'm a Swati from Mpumalanga. I speak Swati, Zulu and Ndebele but I can only write in English as that's what I learnt in School. Afrikaans was a 2nd additional language but it never stuck, as I dropped it after Matric.

So we're pussies coz we got subjugated on OUR OWN LAND and you're not coz you suffer the same abuse on their land where you are the minority.

Do you have the same energy for Indians, who were in the hundreds of millions, close to a billion, being dominated by a tiny Island called England? :francis:

Also how did you end up in America?:comeon:
You weren't sold by your own people, an invading superior military MINORITY conquered your ancestors, in YOUR land (West Africa) and took you to foreign lands to be slaves.
Or is that different coz it happened 300 years ago :patrice:

I'm trying to understand what being a majority of the population has to do with POWER? :jbhmm:

:heh: There were not that many Indians in America when cacs came.

The continent SA included needs good governance period and ws does not cause a person to build luxurious pools and homes. shyt is ridiculously frustrating cats and their uber materialism knowing their continent is behind yet has huge potential due to human capital but choose the materialism route. Why?

who gives a fukk about “leading” in your metaphorical realm. Botswana, Rwanda, and Tanzania are three of the fastest growing economies in the world and 3 of the 5 fastest growing In Africa. Go look at legit economic papers. These places are booming in very measurable ways. Meanwhile Nigeria and South Africa have shown little signs of stability and are literally decaying. They’ve peaked and now we are watching the fall. Population size is irrelevant. Rwanda, Botswana, and Tanzania rank higher on the world peace index then South Africa and Nigeria….. if you can’t be safe, then you aren’t free… if you argue against that then you are just grasping for straws… I’m right, you’re wrong. Peaceful countries>>>>>>>>>>
South Africa is easily better than all those countries. Botswana and Rwanda can never be leaders due to their small populations. And I'm still leery about Rwanda that Hutu - Tutsi beef is far from over. Tanzania and Ghana can barely produce

I don't know why you're singling out coloureds they've been here since day one of colonialism and are concentrated in the Western Cape. That's their province. Indian shops get destroyed too in the townships when protests over illegal immigration flares. South Africa isn't right and that's because of the ANC

It's easy to grow when you're starting from the bottom. Their gdp per capita and quality of life is pitiful

It's so painful to watch these Africans getting flatlined in Africa, by a damn Indian minority. It's even more painful to watch their natural African passive peaceful response to such outrages committed against them. I cannot bring myself to keep up with this nonsense after I saw that.

Don't feel sorry for them, we've told them multiple times they can vote the ANC out but they call us clever blacks. The chickens have come home to roost.

From what I understand, it's mostly the Zulu nation deeply affected by his imprisonment. Despite the compromises made by Mandela during the transitional period to post apartheid SA being unfair to the blacks in the country, the corruption certainly didn't help, it was like stabbing a sick man and say he was going to die anyway.

I come from a country that was a settler economy and had an armed struggle for independence and read the compromises that the first generation of politicians had to make OP, even some of the lands "fought" for were actually bought back from the whites once the smoke cleared. Despite these compromises setting us back, the crippling corruption that started post independence affects us more today than settler colonialism did.

No. Corruption ofc is a problem today mainstreamed by Jomo from the getgo but you need some stats.
Our GDP per capita has grown TREMENDOUSLY from 2002 when it was 420 $ to 2200 $ today. In 1963 at Uhuru it was 97 $; adjusted for inflation thats 880 $ today.

Value of $97 from 1960 to 2021
$97 in 1960 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $882.16 today, an increase of $785.16 over 61 years. The dollar had an average inflation rate of 3.69% per year between 1960 and today, producing a cumulative price increase of 809.44%.

$97 in 1960 → 2021 | Inflation Calculator

In FACT if pre covid growth resumes we'll reach South Africa's present GDP per capita of 6300 $ by 2030 latest 2032.

In a subsequent post I said we had made great strides despite the corruption in key sectors. Now imagine how further ahead education, health agriculture and infrastructure would have been if we cut the corruption just by 40%. I can't diss Jomo too much in as much as he set the precedent for corruption, Moi and his men took it to another level. You already know due to our history and some lucky strokes why we are ahead of a good number of African nations.

No sir, not all 42 tribes conform to the bus park forehead, those that do either had admixture with southern cushytic peoples or something. Some kenyan tribes are indistinguishable from central Africans in body build and facial features.
