"This village was in a good state under the Ciskei homeland led by LL Sebe. We used to have a tarred road... with workers who used to maintain it as well as free seed‚ crops and livestock." He said they celebrated when democracy dawned. "Little did we know that democracy would bring more oppression.

#4  Ditto P2k, and not to be confused with the enablers of fairness, equal opportunity, Global Warming, gender equality, white privilege, Wymn's Choice, Gay Rights, BLM, or Free Trade.

'Tarred roads'... who actually needs them ?

#3  One of the problems is that the government that replaced it is corrupt as fuck.

If it had been a true representative republic, you guys might have done ok.

Enjoy your BLM government.

#1  "One total economic and military boycott of South Africa."

Same old Syrian, Libyan, Iraqi globalist regime changers at work yet today. Mucking around in the business of other people. Attempting to pick 'winners and losers' whilst lining their pockets in the process.
