South africa could really play an enormous part in future trade between countries
The blending as you say it's because the Dutch inter married with the africans and therefore the colored race came about but our original forefathers according to the Bible we came from Noah's 3 sons sham, ham and japheth.

The only true Khoekhoe still in existence are here in Namibia. It is not just historical revisionism but legitimizing one of the most horrific periods in human history.

I fully agree with your position on this issue. What really should have happened is that all white people who refuses to live in Africa, should have been offered the option to be repatriated to their countries of origin, even if this was 300 years ago. Those who opted to stay, would have had to make peace that they had to become "Africanized" and had to assimilate fully into Africa... That means "mixing" where they live, love, be entertained, shop and relax....

The "blend" aspect of this topic feels like a desperate attempt by the Cape independence to try and consolidate the colored community. These words "in 1652 the Dutch and Khoi-San began to blend" a poor attempt to demonstrate a cultural overlap between these two races.
By trying to basically say that coloured = indigenous, they are fishing for coloured people's votes/support, who make up a majority in the western Cape.
If you ask actual khoi-San people across the Cape, across the country (Northern Cape especially) they don't see themselves as colored. And as a black South African man married to an Indian South African woman and rising a 'coloured' child I couldn't agree more, coloured doesn't equal to indigenous.

[@lm_b5080]

opposed to this silly movement. however, curious to hear your thoughts on more governmental power given to local & provincial governments? The history of centralisation of power in South Africa (to Pretoria) goes back to Jan Smuts who didn't trust local governments to manage themselves & this is a legacy that the ANC has perpetuated, which to me is very neo-colonial + elitest. Shouldn't grass roots communities - through direct democracy - have a bigger say over their own safety, education, healthcare, housing etc. ?

[@_SMWX]

The question of provincial powers-or even the existence of provinces-is a fair debate but WC Independence is just silly.

[@writeralbertlanier3434]

I'm not a South African but the idea of separation in terms of the Cape is perfectly fine. The country as a whole is badly run by the ANC and African nations have histories of breakway regions .
The problem is that Cape Independence seems to be run or part and parcel of racist Europeans.
If the Cape were separated and this region run by the Colored or mixed race, this would be ok but that isn't the case.
It probably won't work out.

There are 2 independent bantu stands states within SA borders, Swaziland and Lesotho which no one has a problem with, what is so different with Cape independence, why does everyone seems to have issue with it. Independence is written within our SA constitution, where does all this hate of Cape independence surface. Is it only okay for blacks to claim self determination

[@gerhardwillemse4043]

I am living in the Eastern Cape, I fail to understand the allegation of Independence being foolish and delusional. I quote; "Greytown - The Abantu Batho Congress, let by the mayor of the Umvoti local municipality, Philandi P G Mavundla, is advocating the establishment of a sovereign Zulu state in KZN and a self-governing Basotho state in the Free State. It says this vision will progressively extent to the creation of an autonomous Xhosa state in the Eastern Cape." Why not address this together with the RP? Maybe it is time to get away from cadres.

[@kuhlemahlangabeza6639]

Sir, this call is not new. In the 90s we had to contend with the calls by Addriaan Vlok of "Die Volkstaat" and a call for a federal government by IFP of Mangosuthu Buthelezi. Do you know why they failed? Because the call from these two parties were both self-serving and totally distractive. If our freedom was based on the entire country, then what right do we have to start cutting it up. The only problem that needs to be faced by both the Independent Party and Abantu Batho Congress. It is that they have only two options. Either to figure out a way of making South Africa (as a whole) work for everyone, or to simply chose to go to the country of their choice that would pander to their whims. What they are asking for is not an option ...finish and klaar.

[@annodominimag481]

its certainly bizarre and laughable...but nonetheless history has taught us to not completely write these movements of; and instead take them seriously enough to squash them from the outset so they dont have enough time to germinate and take root - at least by exposing them for the danger they really are. The Boers also started off as separatists and left the Cape in the 1800's and 100 years later had spread their extremist ideas so much as to assume power and begin the official legislation of apartheid

[@RynoLeGrange]

I was in their Discord server out of curiosity and it is extremely fringe. We debated the practicalities and my conclusion was that it's impossible to achieve because of the myriad of obstacles you laid out.
The members were quite young and naive with pseudo-anarcho-capitalist convictions and conspiracy theorist tendencies. They'd call a social democracy communist. Definitely influenced by US Republican libertarianism.

I also looked into them, and the collective intelligence is limited, and politically very Trumpian. Why are they getting so much media exposure though? Craig is a snake oil salesman from the UK, and his young sidekicks have a rif-raf vibe to them.

Orania will implode eventually. Greed and self-interest, if not unnatural selection, will take it's toll. Isolation is sickness.

[@TJSDU]

The "blend" aspect of this topic feels like a desperate attempt by the Cape independence to try and consolidate the colored community. These words "in 1652 the Dutch and Khoi-San began to blend" a poor attempt to demonstrate a cultural overlap between these two races.
By trying to basically say that coloured = indigenous, they are fishing for coloured people's votes/support, who make up a majority in the western Cape.
If you ask actual khoi-San people across the Cape, across the country (Northern Cape especially) they don't see themselves as colored. And as a black South African man married to an Indian South African woman and rising a 'coloured' child I couldn't agree more, coloured doesn't equal to indigenous.

The idea of Western Cape as an independent state will never see the light of the day.

Those who do not want to be part of south Africa, they are welcome to get out of our country and go to Europe. We are tired of nonsense 😮.

We need to tell them every chance we get.

[@khaltsharivist365]

21:14 Building One South Africa is the idea that Mmusi tried to sell as leader of DA and quickly found out there were no takers, the DA brain trust rejected it & ejected him. The FF+ and DA are invested in having bigger Oranias, the size of provinces. If they could move Capetown and select areas next to Gibraltar they would. The DA tried to play the long game, increase devolution powers ie get more powers of policing and diplomatic relations etc then creating an army will not be difficult. There are plenty mercenary groups in the country and South African nationals serving in foreign armies. The government knows this too that’s why they passed The Foreign Military Assistance Act.

[@troy1709-h5f]

The Startling Truth...
*Catching Pigs*
This is NOT a joke.
Just something to think about.
You will appreciate the final statement.
There was a professor in a large college that had some exchange students in the class.
One day while the class was in the lab,
The professor noticed one young man who kept rubbing his back and stretching as if his back hurt.
The professor asked the young man what was the matter.
The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back.
He had been shot while fighting Communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country's government and install a new communist regime.
In the midst of his story, he looked at the professor and asked a strange question.
"Do you know how to catch wild pigs Professor?"
The Professor thought it was a joke
and asked for the punch line.
The young man said that it was no joke.
"You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come every day to eat the free food.When they are used to coming every day,
you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the single fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to that also and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side. The pigs are now so used to the free corn, they find the gate, enter to get more free corn.
You then slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd.
Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence making a commotion realising they are trapped but its too late. They are caught.
After a while they settle and eat the corn again and lose the ability and the need to to forage in the woods for themselves.
So they accept their captivity and when their offspring are born in captivity they know no better, are raised in captivity and survive off the free corn"
The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening in South Africa and other places in the world.
Governments keep pushing us toward Communism/ Socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tax exemptions, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare entitlements, medicine, drugs, etc.,
While we continually lose our freedoms,
Just a little at a time.
One should always remember two truths:
There is no such thing as a free lunch AND
and you can never hire someone to provide a service for you cheaper than you can do it yourself.
If you understand the students story, you should definitely recognise that all of this wonderful government "help" is simply a ploy to crush global democracy and the human right to freedom. It is NOT governments trying to assist and uplift its citizens.
If you think the free ride is essential to your way of life, then you will probably not share this and continue to live in a beholden, dependent and trapped life.
BUT, God help us all when the gate slams shut!
Quote for today: "The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living are now outnumbered by those who vote for a living."
A thought to remember, Marx said,
"Remove one freedom per generation and soon you will have no freedom and no one would have noticed."
In the USA, South Africa, Australia and NZ the fences are in place and the solitary gate has already been installed waiting to be shut.
It's Time to Wake Up or pretend its not happening.....
