| 1464539078611939333 | When literally every country “banning” you has a higher infection rate 🙄 https://t.co/NZMuf9Pfx5 | 5928 |
| 1598307723896143876 | [THREAD] 1. If the President resigns tonight it will open the door for the nastiest, most craven and unrepentant criminals in the ANC to start feasting again. Are you ready for “President David Mabuza”? | 1123 |
| 1575837007326351360 | I’m glad this angle is finally surfacing in the press. I am reliably told that @mphophalatse1 is routinely excluded from party negotiations about her own government, which are instead (mis)managed by DA’s leader and federal council chairman from Cape Town. https://t.co/pXllk9I5Ad | 781 |
| 1610194559459536897 | I’m going to need white South Africans to stop peddling the garbage that the apartheid government was “efficient” or “effective”. A rotten, corrupt administration that left the country’s coffers empty before running for the hills is no exemplar of good government. https://t.co/OQ599eLtCT | 589 |
| 1451799048462249984 | “Racism is not the issue.” “Racism has nothing to do with service delivery in South Africa.” “Nobody cares about your identity politics during a local election.” 🙄😏 https://t.co/KadoBpVKKq | 485 |
| 1613981237546471437 | There is no dignity in being paraded on camera and social media while the government publicly singles you out as someone lacking dignity. Delete this footage, apologise to these young women and think about what you have done. https://t.co/MiD1QraGjV | 430 |
| 1564488678436704256 | I'm so pleased that the @NPA_Prosecutes is appealing this ruling. Foreplay is not consent, and consent can be withdrawn AT ANY TIME WHATSOEVER. EXCLUSIVE | NPA appeals Ngcukaitobi rape ruling that says foreplay implies 'tacit consent’ https://t.co/xJbrCtMDfK via @news24 | 311 |
| 1451539881382010881 | I’m not watching or reposting that “discussion”. From the clip, I see two white men back-slapping each other, lecturing a black woman about what her hierarchy of political issues should be, and telling her that her lived experiences in this country are irrelevant. | 283 |
| 1456384203982090243 | There. I fixed it. 😏 https://t.co/dkyUL41hWa | 281 |
| 1445466486487744523 | Making political hay out of one of the most devastating waves of racially-motivated violence in our country’s democratic history is not just cynical. It is despicable. Every single decision maker who approved that poster campaign should resign. | 223 |

And the remembering part is particularly important.” Thank you, dearest Arch. We love you and we will miss you @TheDesmondTutu.❤️🇿🇦 https://t.co/Hc0wCJpZQk | 690 |
