Is Helen Zille the Queen of Comebacks… or a Power Keeper? In this episode, I unpack one of South African politics’ most controversial and resilient figures, Helen Zille. From her repeated political “retirements” to her constant returns to the centre of power, we ask the uncomfortable but necessary question: is she a political phoenix… or a gatekeeper refusing to let go? This conversation looks at the DA’s internal power dynamics, race, leadership, and why certain figures are never truly allowed to fade from the spotlight, no matter how loudly they claim to exit. This episode is the audio version of a video available on my YouTube channel, where I go even deeper into the politics, personalities, and patterns behind Helen Zille’s continued influence.

Expressing my views and supporting everyone's right to Free Speech permits me to make my thoughts known and keep fighting the System of Oppression.. Filtering out the rhetoric and the propaganda allows us to form informed opinions based on logic and reason. I am not about to keep quiet when injustice creeps nor am I going to sit down and allow falsified versions of our history as children of the soil be distributed because that too contributes to the problem! One of my fav quotes by Baba Credo Mutwa: "A country that speaks against it's heritage, is a dead country" now with what we are being fed, the content degrades our africanness! degrades our customs and traditions all in the name of religion and some form of salvation-that's where I come in bethuna! This season will consist of ✨exposing the lies we were and are still being fed. ✨Educating ourselves about our history before the infiltration of the white man. ✨Celebrating our Roots. ✨ Keeping the entertainment globe on, with our interesting and highly informative African tales & lessons.

A Poem 🤍

In today's episode I touch on the weirdness of those who sell out, especially when their rubbish begins to stink up the whole place.

When something is planned by the elites, it will be carefully orchestrated to divert our attention from the truth. The roll-out will be massive and newspapers will fly off the shelves, radio stations will be a buzz and the keyboard warriors shall begin trolling those who question the authenticity of the narrative that is being pushed. In today's episode we talk about this. For more on this, kindly visit my blog https://wp.me/paRmoO-me and read up my loves.

The National Shutdown which survived the winds of propaganda generated by the SA Government under the ANC and its partner in oppression the DA was a success. It also marked the start of a new era, where ANC officials expose themselves through the jabs they throw on social media and public platforms. If this is what the new dawn meant then they can keep it and allow the citizens of the country decide on which government they would want in charge. In today's episode we talk about how successful the shutdown was and what came out of it.

I'm done with the selective outrage. Putting an end to corruption became a motto that helped them instill a sense of hope and their capability to achieve this goal, however this did not end well due to their failure to uproot the cause of corruption without being biased in their approach. We are faced with a problem of crooks in suits, that carry badges who hold senior positions that are alleged to have been parachuted by Mme Patricia M and she has proof which implicates the man with the hat who is a supposed anti-corruption activist, he was never scrutinized like Mr Digital Vibes which led to his resignation. A bold move that was clearly politically fuelled, however it wasn't enough motivation for the man with the hat to walk the plank. Where was Cele's energy during the #PhoenixMassacre?

There is a danger in not looking into the so-called solutions to our problems that the governments and capitalists present us. It is also weird to come for those who question the credibility of what is presented to us as facts, why punish them for having opposing views that provide a different perspective on your program if it is what you say it is? In today's episode we get into this.

When the news first broke out about a looming resignation from the outgone Deputy President, Mr David Dabede Mabuza and a pending cabinet reshuffle. It got us thinking about what the outcomes would be and if it would be beneficial to the citizens of this country or not.The reshuffle was long overdue but then again as a county sikhapile.

This is for those who claim to be patriots on the voyage to free Southy from "foreigners" who were born on the mother continent, you need to stop it with the weirdness and wake up!
