Free Palestine, whilst SA dies
The Mercury
|November 21, 2025
SOUTH Africa is on auction, and the highest bidders are actively pursuing her riches.
A country which abounds in nature's beauty, which was built by European hands and coloured in by diverse people groups, has turned into a circus — a free-for-all where Gupta-ites fly in and settle like aliens on a new planet, filled with resources to pillage.
Like grasshoppers, ANC supporters who come together at stadiums in their masses, dressed in green, black and yellow regalia, who feed on an apartheid narrative and blindly follow their leaders, have stripped the land bare.
Weirdly, it is not them who have eaten the crops, but it’s the cadre - locusts - the most vicious and demanding of the entire swarm.
