Tembeka is in top form today. Linking Israeli politicians’ genocidal views to the actions of soldiers on the ground AND showing that the soldiers themselves reiterate and repeat the same views is an incredibly clever approach.

And the courts agreed. An effective advocate.
A quiet reminder that Tembeka Ngcukaitobi - one of the South African lawyers who is trying to accuse Israel of genocide - spent most of last year trying to argue that “Kill the Boer” is not a call for genocide and is, in fact, perfectly acceptable speech.

Homophobia will stop the day we stop being reduced to “two men [who] wanna have sex”. That’s literally what the moral panic around teaching kids about LGBT people is about, when really, most people know they’re gay before they even know what sex is.
Homophobia really just stems back to people not minding their business. If two men wanna have sex what that gotta do with you

It’s easy to claim moral high ground over being funded by the Oppenheimers when no one knows who funds you.
These are the people who collapsed and the negotiations between Action-SA and EFF. The Oppenheimer criminal syndicate is remaining true to its murderous foundation and nature of political interferences and micromanagement. They now own 3 political parties (anc, da & action-sa).
