This won’t win me friends on Facebook
This is about people who give a shit, and the Democratic Alliance (DA) which doesn’t. It’s an update on the court actions against me. It’s a nod to the coronavirus. It’s even more about what I want and don’t want from you. That, for sure, is a two-way street – what do you want from me?
DAY #74 OF COVID FOR ME
This is Day #74 of my isolation. I haven’t had a visitor or a suntan, but received medicine once, and groceries twice. For the first time, I’ve got fresh food (a week’s supply of apples, avos and potatoes, plus a cocoa choc and a packet of Bubbles chips). Thereafter it’s only 100 grams of rice per day for at least one month. Maybe I’ll make a Youtube video for that – “What happens if you only eat rice for 30 days?” I’m betting I’ll look smaller rather than Asian 🙂
That smiley means that I’m not complaining. It’s absolutely positive that I’ve had the luxury of not having to go out. I’ve listened to a record number of podcasts, and caught up on awesome foreign movies. There was a person I’d email or phone weekly but I’ve paused that so as to lessen my expectations.
My activism prepared me for being alone.
FACEBOOK SUCKS BUT IT DOESN’T HAVE TO
100% of Facebook is too much.
Consequently, I’d much rather have 10% of you here, silently appreciating what I share, or commenting on my opinions and the info I provide.
It’s a sin to comment without clicking on an article link, or to only be here because your nature is to be a conspiracy theorist which, in turn, dilutes the evidence I’ve presented.
My book may have been downloaded 2,300 times for free but I’m betting the majority of you reading this post have never read it. It’s not just a book, and not about whether its well-written or not, it’s evidence exposing the corruption of the Democratic Alliance (DA). This must be important as the 2021 local government elections creep closer.
My goal is truth. I want to play my part in making South Africa and the world nicer, starting with making it safer. It’s impossible to achieve that without you. Either you want to make our lives better, or you don’t. If you choose to fight or be kind, you’re the type of person I like most.
Although the odds are against us in our country of fuck-you politicians, I have to hope that we one day build communities given meaning through our actions.
Only action counts. Belief, alone, is as useless as believing that Jesus is white or that the Tooth Fairy is a stripper who thinks we’re hot no matter how big our boerie bellies are.
‘DEMOCRATIC’ FUCK-YOU POLITICIANS
Regards the DA’s attempts to silence me, and Helen Zille’s support of DA crime, I’m still waiting to appear in High Court.
They’re obviously backed up by CoViD-19 (which my asthmatic lungs appreciate). However, this week, the Judge informed me that I must file a motion regards all the queries I’ve sent. Those were regards the Sheriff’s arrest warrant being missing from the Court folder, them having tried to arrest me under the wrong case number, me not being in contempt because I’d repeatedly asked to be arrested safely whilst experiencing intimidation from politicians and cops.
I’ve been fighting for 10 years. I’ve been without my home town for 3 years. It may be weeks or months before I appear in Court but a countdown clock has finally begun. I would like to get this part over with… and move onto the next difficult part (’cause the crooks are unlikely to leave me alone until I’m silenced, and there are more cases against me).
Although, by law, they cannot arrest me whilst a motion is in play, it’s possible considering how many awful things they’ve done to me and the innocent people of Western Cape – Helen Zille is evil.
In the case of such unlawfulness, and only if in custody, I would return to hunger strike until the Minister of Justice and Correctional Services, Ronald Lamola, acted against the unholy union of DA and ANC corruption.
If the judge is fair, the DA crooks I fight will have to appear in Court too. For the sake of honesty, let them also experience the inconvenience of travel during these crazy covid times.
MY LOVELY LUNGS
Outside of that, as said, I’m an asthmatic – the coronavirus is going to keep me locked up for an enormous period. ‘Just’ getting the flu last year was a major challenge for me.
If not jailed, or put under house arrest, I expect to keep myself in isolation until I and my lungs know how best to deal with the virus. It’s certain that our ANC Government cannot be trusted so far.
CORRUPTION WILL HAVE TO WAIT
Corruption isn’t patient, it thrives and laughs. But a return to fighting corruption isn’t on the cards for me now. Of course, the guaranteed exceptions would be fighting in Court or from prison. I have prepared, for example, more detailed information supporting my book. The Judge will receive a copy.
ARE YOU REAL? AM I?
I want to know that you’re real.
I’m going to share links to longform articles and podcasts. The topics will range greatly. The goal is to make you think deeply though I may sometimes throw a joke in between.
I understand you not fully engaging if English is your second language but I’m hoping that audio will at least have some appeal.
Maybe it’s also me telling you that I still exist. I haven’t vanished into a gentle night!
SEEKING MEANING IN AN OFTEN MEANINGLESS WORLD
People who comment after only reading a Facebook headline are biased, and will be kicked off my page. If you’re not interested, and you don’t have to be, don’t comment. Be adult about that which you don’t agree with. Substantiate your opinions.
I don’t need friends. I gave up that romantic notion whilst fighting corruption with no one beside me except abusers. But I need to know that there are thinkers out there. I need to know that there’s a connection of ideas, and that education, in a national and worldly manner, matters to others too.
I’m reaching out in the hope that you sometimes reach back meaningfully. Most of you have lots of time on your hands. If not now, then when? I’m asking you for some of it.
In our time of CoVid, I’m hoping there’s a greater chance of more people giving up their egos built on hollow consumerism, cars, cellphones, make-up and hair extensions. I’m not against a bit of porn but pawning our future away is unforgivable.
Without meaningful debate or a meeting of minds, I’ll have to consider giving up on my beloved South Africa. But this is my attempt to build a bridge between us.
I may wish crooked politicians pain and suffering but that’s never you. No matter whether we know each other or not, I’m in love with the stranger in you because you’re part of this South Africa that rips my heart apart. It’s like we’re married, for better or for worse.
I’m not a nationalist but am, undeniably, South African. This is our country. No one can steal her from us if we don’t let them. We must hold on with all our sweat!
