What a wonderful word : slopulism

A quick note to Periol.  We’re checking your site problem .. There are a few more, so, doing a massive checkup and cleanup.  Our Jewel just let me know …  “I’ll take a full backup first, then investigate the – and then he leaves a list of what he will check out first.”

On the same note – Getting spam from what is pretending to be white house sources this morning.

Here is a movie for you – a documentary. It is called Tainted Heroes. Many of the people that speak here or are already dead, I knew. The Donald Mashinini that they talk about had a grandmother and my grandmother with her, started the Garment Worker’s Union. Many were the nights that my grandmother spent in jail after having fought for ‘her girls’ in various manufacturing plants. Many years later, I would repeat that pattern, and sing freedom songs out of some jail and be bailed out the next morning.

They talk a lot about ‘communism’. That was not today’s communism but what was the order of the day was the harsh USSR Bolshevism and the issue was the fight between the west and the USSR at the time. In a sense the whole of the South Africa story in those days was as a plaything between the Bolsheviks and the West as part of the worldwide violent struggle for communism.

There was no goodwill toward people like myself, who fought the struggle. As the movie starts they talk about the first two people killed at the start of the Soweto Riots. That was 1976. The second one that was killed (it was a very brutal affair with necklacing the order of the day – necklacing was putting a car tyre around the neck of someone, fill it with petrol or gas, and set the person alight.) The second person was stoned to death and he had devoted his life to upliftment of black youth. This is what the Bolshevism was and what it engendered.

The documentary explains how the ANC with their Bolshevism trainers successfully implemented a predetermined program of violence, fear and propaganda to eliminate political rivals and establish itself as the sole representative of black aspirations in South Africa. It illuminates how the ANC’s armed struggle was more a struggle against black rival organisations than against the apartheid system.

The one guy featured quite early on, Tony Leon and a major number of people started the first non-racist party. So, I can truly say I fought against the USSR, but not against the local people.

You may hear things that you did not know and consider as historical revisionism. I lived much of it. So, this is not revisionism. They talk about the atrocities in the ANC training camps scattered across Africa. That I have heard first hand. The Vietnam camps were literally death camps. If you did not spout the correct revolutionary rhetoric on the spot, your blood was spilt immediately in the most brutal way to teach the lesson. People become weapons of war and were as expendable as weapons of war as a part of the revolution.

Russia today hides their complicity – many people were killed and maimed and lost and tortured.

Looks like that Hacking Group was all over the zone and hacked from there. Just now: Hanzala hacking group: In case of any aggression or carelessness by the US and the Zionist regime, destructive transnational cyber attacks will be carried out against the energy and digital infrastructure of enemy countries.

Xi will not meet Putin at the airport but Wang Yi will meet him – that is customary and form of diplomacy.  Trump is spiraling down totally pretending to have the higher ground on Xi.  Take a look what the idiot posts.  Trump is going absolutely bonkers on his Truth Social.  That is the most amazing thing to watch and I don’t want to watch it even!

I think they’re going to try some kind of strike but oh dear .. the US is going to see its ass without a mirror.

From some old stomping grounds – South Africa.

At last the constitutional court rules that Ramaphosa must go through an impeachment process.  The issue is almost comical.  Phala phala it is called .. and the meaning is a ceremonial beer container.

Some years ago, 2020m some inquiry found that there was prima facie evidence of ‘serious violations’ of the Prevention and Combating of Corrupt Activities Act and the Constitution. It also intimated, much as Justice Raymond Zondo had done earlier in the State Capture Inquiry, that Ramaphosa was evasive and unconvincing. With understated scepticism, the Panel described the President’s explanation of how in 2020 an undeclared US$580,000 in cash had been paid to him, left unbanked, hidden in a sofa, and then stolen, as being at times ‘vague’ and ‘leaving unsettling gaps’.

There was a lot of laughing about this and the story is that the amount was much higher.  I wrote an article about this, humorous with a cartoon showing this couch where the money was pushing up the cushions and lying everywhere.  Oh boy, did some hand out the smacks, (or they tried to), because a ‘jewish artist’ drew the cartoon ..  I had no clue, it was just a funny cartoon.   At that time (The old Saker site) I had threats, zulu threats, written in English but everyone knows the threats.  Kill the wizards …

Anyway the process has started.  Ramaposa has a few options .. He can wait it out, and play court and political games in various ways but the thing is his party, the ANC is much weaker now than at that time.  And South Africa had to resort to a shared type of government, eventually marketed as the GNU, Government of National Unity.

I’ve never said it with a high profile, but I did some post graduate work with the man.  We shared our lunches because both of us were very poor … so we shared so that we had some choice at least.  The post graduate work was a year of very hard negotiation training.  He was heading up to be head of the mine worker’s union at the time, but I had something going for my white ass.  Having a ‘split’ family – some traditional racists, my grandmother from the other side had started the garment worker’s union with a women by the name of xxx – let me not expose too much!  so, they could not mess with me too much at the time.  That grandmother spent nights in jail fighting for ‘her girls’ and of course, years later I sang freedom songs all night long in jail.  Later of course everyone messed with me and we fled because I liked to be alive still and I had seen too much during the run-up to the negotiations for what Mandela termed the Rainbow Nation.  That lasted only while Mandela was alive, and then the penny dropped.

At its first meeting of the Convention for a Democratic South Africa (CODESA) in late 1991, the representatives of the SA government, the ANC, and other parties declared their solemn commitment to a South Africa “free from apartheid or any other form of discrimination or domination,” which would strive to “ensure equal opportunities and social justice for all South Africans.” Among the commitments made in relation to the constitution, yet to be negotiated, were that language rights would be respected, there would be a “separation of powers between the legislature, executive and judiciary with appropriate checks and balances”, and the constitution itself would be “guarded over by an independent, non-racial and impartial judiciary.”

That was the fairy story.  Now South Africa has more racial laws than during the time of apartheid and the state has been stolen blind by those that pretend Marxism.  How the Russians can believe this bunch is the end of me!

I trust Ramaaphosa loses all his money, all the stuff that got hidden in the couch, and all his friends’ money as well.  He did not remain poor of course but stinking rich is different from a comfortable life.  He is stinking rich.  That is part of the stuff that I saw when the men with the shiny shoes (from the US and the Brits) walked in during negotiations for the end of apartheid.  Guess who owns the mines now.  With this issue Elon Musk is actually right.  He cannot take Starlink to South Africa, because he is white.  The South African government has just appointed a white fellow as ambassador to the US, supposedly to keep Trump calm and pretend there are no problems with deep seated hatred that has been inculcated, same as zionism and the holocaust and the universities are stuffed with an ideology that makes no sense to anyone and the general population on all sides do not understand what socialism is.  Some hate it, some consider it the beer pot in the couch where you steal from the state and all its people and then, all your costs are paid for you.  Oh dear God, I know the fellow that was just appointed or I knew him then.  And as he was suspect then, the has only grown more suspect now.

Such an incredibly complex story.
