TL ASLEEP? Here is the funny thing about capitalism and the South African government. They claim they are in that position of power for our well being. And they know poverty the reason many of our people are suffering.
If they can cop up a figure of R500 bn then they can actually afford to give everyone an equal opportunity at a decent living. But they won’t do that because they’re holding onto capitalism which is a system that NEEDS A POOR CLASS of people in order to sustain itself.
They’re sustaining capitalism by keeping poor people poor and giving them peanuts to keep them holding on. We all know in a capitalist society that no grown adult can live a decent life that sustains their needs with the small amount they’re gonna get from that 500 bn
But they have to accept it because “they’re poor and they don’t have a choice” but fuck that we actually have a choice , we have the choice to create a new system that benefits of all of us.
And the most beautiful thing is that we have indigenous knowledge systems about politics and economics that are inherently based on making sure everyone is taken care of and nobody has to feel inadequate and incomplete. No poverty , just vibes. Too many people have suffered.
life has been terrible for a lot of people for too long. It’s time for a shift in energy, a shift in consciousness. No more fear because everything is gonna be okay if we have each other and we have the power of love and intelligence.
Its time to use intelligence and love to create a life worth living. it’s time to leave this old bullshit that doesn’t benefit us. We don’t need western systems , we are Africa and we are rich , we are rich in knowledge, rich in resources, rich in spirituality, rich in love.
We have the Universe and the Earth on our side we don’t need capitalism to survive. We just need to remember who we are. Youth it’s really time for us to wake up bafetho. Steve Biko and Credo Mutwa are counting on us. They’re waiting for the next one.
