I have lost 100% of the elections I have participated in, other people voted for me to lose my rights. I don't find election day exciting at all but as someone who cares about being free I take my duty to vote seriously so I took leave to go vote tomorrow.

Which madman courier services are complying with this nonsense without litigating against it?

We're talking about Mr 'take the guns first'? The guy who wanted negative interest rates? The guy who wanted tax reductions without spending reductions? Mr covid stimulus? The father of the vaccine? Just vote for your daddy Trump in peace and stop trying to recruit libertarians.

I discussed this with a DA MP the other day, I learned about liberalism via overseas sources online. All school taught me was how great socialism was. I keep asking who is taking the responsibility to educate SAn's about liberalism?

I respect this perspective because it's honest but the DA can't go after your vote and abandon us who make up its base. We have a representative democracy, the idea behind the DA was to represent the liberals (liberalism is the 2nd biggest political ideology in SA and the oldest)

Seeing a number of people shocked that the state broadcaster would give preferential treatment to the political party that controls the state.

Why's this shocking? Why's this surprising?

Julius Malema is anti-poor.

Why not increase the old age grant to R4 million per month?

Why not increase the child grant to $9 gazillion USD per month?

Does Malema want people to suffer?
