South Africans bore me: A thread

The heartbreaking truth is South Africa is held back by her people’s colonized and tapered minds. We believe South Africa is the entire world and westerns are a beautiful fantasy-like dream that can be experienced if you study hard and get a good job.

It's the same Americans and EU that inflicted sanctions on Zim, that has landed her in the economic state she's in (and yes I acknowledge these were politically focused but they affected the vast majority.)

Yes, the EU tried to save face by encouraging foreign investment but the damage is done. And we end up in a situations are trying to survive and make ends meet, and succesfully doing so in a foreign land.

We so quick to jump on the ‘all black online protests for black lives’ band wagon, because we idolized Americans and Europeans. We only nurture our identity when they appropriate and plaster it on Vogue and Haper Bazaar covers. Story for another day.

South Africans are hypocrites. You are cowards. It’s always, Zimbabweans, Nigerians, Ethiopians, Ghanaians, Zambians, Malawians … everyone but the white man. The white man has really done a number on us bazalwane.

South Africa’s xenophobia in an attempt to fix the country’s issues is the most bogus thing honestly. Your government has failed you and the best you can do is blame your fellow Africans who look to better the lives of their families and their own.

Xenophobia incites a black on black hate and achieving a one African economy is a mere fairytale with this kind of thinking.

If you were to go to any African country, the hospitality we will be met with is beyond the Ubuntu you claim to preach and have. Because the memo South Africans have missed is that as long as your are a daughter or son of this soil, African soil, you are my sister... my brother.

I don’t condone crime and I’m not in anyway saying theft, rape and scamming should be sympathized with, but I honestly cannot understand how we actively blame the lack of our progression on African brothers and sisters as opposed to the real thief that is white monopoly ...

capitalists. The so called ‘freedom’ you celebrate every April is a sham and you are still a slave to Bezuidenhout and aboHeinrich. Your hero sold you out and you are only now realizing it and you want to blame everyone else as opposed to addressing the core issue.

The core issue ladies and gents is that, the white minority of this country has the country’s wealth and the vast impoverished is the populations majority and it is black people.

Only 23% of shares traded of the JSE are held by black people, directly and indirectly. Capital in the form of land, human capital (black people, our people) and property is heftily tended to white ownership. https://theconversation.com/white-people-in-south-africa-still-hold-the-lions-share-of-all-forms-of-capital-75510

But we silently mad at this injustice and only argue about it in our little group chats but never publicly exclaim our outrage. And not just that, but actively encourage and embrace black excellence. We quick to want to tear Africans apart.

All y’all know how to do is drink and make memes and ask people for money to drink and then you wanna blame a Zimbabwean lady for getting a job she does diligently and has worked tooth and bone for? Get outta here with your ‘everyone owes me everything’ complex.

When American protest that black lives matter, it is because they are a minority in their country. In English now, BLACKS ARE LESS THAN WHITES IN AMERICA.

Blacks in South Africa, however are the majority. THE MAJORITY and yet white minority still owns majority of capital in SA.

They hold the economy.

They laughing at us kill each other, there by Orania.

Intellectually, we are a lazy country and we refuse to collectively address the thorough redress of economic injustice, learn our own history, to think for ourselves, beyond … study and work for a white man.

We have brilliant minds in the black community, but it is dulled by the ideology that everything is to be handed to us on a silver platter. You want jobs, create jobs. It’s hard? Of course, LIFE IS HARD!

The problem is black people would rather tear each other down than work hand in hand to create Our African brothers and sisters work hard and excel because they understand it is a matter of life and death for them, they don’t have our luxuries of citizenship.

I hate addressing my fellow Africans, on African soil as foreigners. As long as you are African on African soil, you can never be foreigner, that is home. And the wheel turns boLoves. One day you will be a ‘foreigner’, in a foreign land. You reap what you sow.

South Africans act as if we ourselves are not African, South Africa is not a stand-alone country. Start practicing the Ubuntu you preach.

And what happens when all "foreigners" leave?

You'll turn on each other.

Zulu vs. Xhosa

Venda vs. Sotho

No more black people to blame.

Everyone but the white man.

To fellow Africans, we embrace you, we see you and appreciate you. #AfricansMustRise
