its the same Issue as Venezuala banning import and export

They make the same mistakes

all they do is blame the opposition party for it

heres something you dont see everyday . our Democrats Support the Right to self defence with Fire arms

lol

a news article 2 days ago they are pushing this Draft bill

"That South African society is already violent is self-evident. Last year, the number of murders in the country rose by 6.9%, from just over 19 000 to more than 20 000 – between 1 April 2017 and 31 March 2018, 56 people were murdered every day. In the same period, almost 110 people were raped every day and at least one seriously assaulted. Citizens must have the right to defend themselves and their families when in danger."

This is what our Democrats threw out there

That's more people getting murdered in 1 year than in the entire USA combined

........

Yup

And we have less guns. so you cant blame guns for it

Wow

When you said rate I thought you meant per capita

Wtf

lol

It's worse than I had imagined there

Thats normal Crime

and were used to it

110 rapes daily, and somehow we have a rape culture

....

Yes 1 out of 7 men admit to rape

in my country

from what i read about a few months ago

holy shit

its a seriouse issue

we also have one of the highest Domestic Voilence against women rates

More men Hit women in the capital of my country then in the rest of my country

you can Litterally Start A wife Beaters annonymous as the joke goes

Not only that but it's also racist af

yes

On both fronts

you have 11 Official languages

So you have so many cultures and ethnic groups

someone explained it to me this way Race relations in my country is like ice cream . you add shit to the Icecream it does nothing to the shit but it fucks up the icecream

Which country is this

Za

Jesus, I didn't know it was that bad

our goverment is not fond of international attention

Well, they're not happy right now then

After trump tweeted about the White farms . our goverment denied it obviosly and actually Doubled down

because it got attention

it went from . " we will take the White Farmers land " to "we will take Land " to we are not taking "White farmers land " to it stoped showing in the news completely

all because of international attention

They still want to do it but now they are trying to Change the Laws to make it legal

You know its funny how these people forget that it was white men who gave them the right to vote

they dont like Democracy

We loved them enough to share our rights with them

its ironic at best they use Capitalism and complain about it

It's probably due to propoganda

I just wish all the racism bullshit would stop in the USA. It's so much worse about everywhere else

They think a 1 party solution is the way to go

Ikr

when i was watching the 2016 election for the US and saw the culture war you guys are having

it shocked me

But then our people started race politics and the Communists PISSED off eVERYONE

they pissed of the Zulu's indians . white people . the Coloured community .

It was haleriouse

Tbh I agree, George Washington said it himself. We can not have a two party system

no but they want Communist 1 party solution

its much different

our ruling goverment is Centre left but is african Nationalist

our Democrats are liberal and Centre

Ofc he was referring to a party that followed our constitution to the letter can he was a constitutionalist

Yeah

that makes more sense

you guys got the Electoral collage while we run with popular Mob voters

Ouch

the Same party has run us since 1994

And they put us in a Recession twice

The electoral college only works cause our population is so large and very far apart

think trump is bad you wish you had Zuma lol he had a rape case against him the woman fled to Nederlands after the trails. he was elected Twice and had 175 charges of corruption against him Before elected because you see. . . you vote for the party not the President the party sets forth a candidate.

My verdict: we're all fucked

I mean atleast trump didnt say take a shower to cure aids

we have been watching the movie Idiocracy playing out in my country since 2006

*sigh*

On another note, I've found a suitable Linux distro for my tablet

And worst is i cant use social media because they monitor that shit aswell

Get the tor browser

Linux for your tablet ?

Yes

hmmm

(rubbing chin intensifies) hmmmmmm

You cant get linux on your Nintendo switch

Nintendo Switch sucks

I never had a nintendo growing up or consoles .

just a tablet with custom hardware and software

i only had pc . yay

I only use my PC, but I have an old tablet lying around I want to do something with

I had ps3 and 4 for a while but I had PC before all that.

im a 90s kid but i never played mario ever lol . but i know who mario is lol

PC was my first love, have built over 60 pcs in the last years all for the fun of it

Software's my love for sure

its relaxing to me building a pc

I love linux

I use it on everything

linux is pretty dank indeed

I currently use Debian GNU/Linux

on my main box

Ubuntu Server and Debian on my servers

and soon to be Bodhi Linux on my tablet

e17 is weird

impressive as fuck given that efl is absolute cancer, but weird ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@Walsp You said the gov't will probably track social media. Do you have the Tor Browser?

you dank linux users you lol

e16 was the shit

no i dont

You should probably get it

they wanted to Police social media in 2016

and people slammed it

saying it would lead us to a dictatorship

It probably would

partially

its like Comcast when you put regulations in they cant do shit if you remove regulations they will try and fuck with customers

i use a VPN alongside tor

whonix, mentlegen

@FunnyStarRunner Just use a bridge

Its just social media thats being tracked and if you use Watsapp

if i pick up my telephone and say bomb and president in the same sentence im on a watchlist lol

lol yep

I mean thats most countries

lol

I don't trust any spy shit like whatsapp

But we already have hate speech laws that only go 1 way

only white people get convicted for it

: (

Hate speech laws are evil

Its called Crimea injura

hurting someones dignity

you've got to be kidding me

So i can call you a racials slur and i get 2 years in jail if your seven coats browner then me

damn

But IF a black guy cals a black guy the same word

he pays a fine

How is that justice

huh

bizarre for sure

Wheres this law implemented?

What country I mean

my country

south africa

Wierd, but Ill trust you on that

the law was introduced in the 70's under the apartheid Regine to stop Racism

but now its kept in place

During apartheid?

and enforced by the currecnt goverment

Interesting...

Yeah

It was supposed to reduce racial tension

That changes my perspective on that.

Racism only breeds more racism

^

Thats the point

But our current goverment does not see it that way they blame EVERYthing on Colonialism and aparheid when they failed to fix the there mess for 23 Years

Still that law was created to stop it, Id argue trying to force it back into the tube only makes it explode later down the line if they are not listened to

it now only use is to use it on minority groups

What I mean was, making it a law only means people hide it.

It still dosent solve it.

Hell its something you cant force.

Yeah

it can be misuses

like i was in a argument with a guy and he tried to get me to say the racial slur

Was gonna say, it was just another vector for the govt to start policing language

And its easy for someone to accuse another of that la

if your aware how people can lie

then youd be surprised

In the US people still accuse men of rape

That shit is fucked up

And get away with it, if even the worlds most progressive nation cant fix it.

Because rape is a seriouse problem in my country

I dont think and I mean no offense when I say it, some random state in SA can fix it

Over here if a woman Accuses a man of rape with Stats like ours

they will believe them

if 1 out of 7 men admit to rape and 110 rapes per day

im sure you would believe her here

But the US is nowhere near that level

Statisticall she is likely to be correct.

But the problem was, remember that study?

Yeah? i saw the arguements for the US rape culture

the one that asked women how safe their countries war?

Actually the one that asked women if they were assaulted sexually

The problem is not the rate at which guilty people are convicted

And somehow the US was in the top 3 most dangerous

It's the rate at which innocent people are locked up

higher than places where rape is a weapon to subjugate populations

Like the Congo or Rwanda

Honestly, you can lock up anyone and they wont be happy.

And the men will just take it and hide.

I mean there still slave trade here in africa and nobody gives a fuck

Cause we tell our women that they are likly to be raped

And no one will listen to them

the UN wont touch it because african countries make it legal

Men are fucking animals

Dude, 1 in 5 women are raped is worse than most 3rd world countries

We all know it, were all men

And at supposedly the US most safest locations?

The country next to Djabouti forces 20% of its population into military service

@Cody sadly so

and uses the 16 year olds to work in the mines as part of there Year of military service

people suck

The UN wont touch it cause they all are guilty of shit and they all know it

true

If one person complains, other people will jsut point fingers and go "you do it to, you do X"

Everyone has skeletons they cant be bothered to fix and they dont point out other peoples skeletons since they are equally if not more guilty of it

The African union say the UN always pics on Africa . and does not seem bothered with the Rest of europes problems. . . (maybe the fact that we have more dictatorships and people in slavery was any indication as if they fucking cared)

Why you think the UN only complains about the US, Israel and Japan

If every man acted on his urges we would all be rapists. Which is why we hide our women cause we dont want them to be raped.

Sure they all have their share of human rights violations but how about China, India, Saudi Arabia?

China is basically Are you going to do business or no

If you call them out on Violations

Which is my point, the UN is toothless.

they make in painfully clear they dont care

If they cant keep the powerful in check, whats the point funneling money into it? At least trump is making them feel the heat for now.

exactly

he made all of NATO actually up there spending

wich they neglected

the US pays 60% of nato's military budget fuck off they need to fund it themselves

UN doesn't call out India because small federal government

yup

Even if they complained, the people they'll complain can do very less

i got a friend who came from india he told me the amount of Orphans in the slums

its horrifying

India cant do shit bout its issues alone unfortunately.

But no one sees any profit in helping anyway.

I also heard they are getting more socialist

No oil

Dude, each time the government tries, they fuck something up

@GingaBomber exactly the opposite

We *were* socialist

Really? Dam alot can change in 2 years then

this is where i say integrity do what is right because it is the right thing to do . Sadly integrity has no monotary value so most dont do it

Now the right wing is in power

Since when?

2014

Shit, I wasnt paying attention then

oh mundy ?

Actually I wanted to point out.

They were so successful that there is literally no opposition

whats his name again the White haired dude

The US, not the govt, but the millitary

Modi

What was it in them? That they were willing to fight a war across the ocean?

yeah modi

Im not talking japan, they struck first.

Did they learn from Germany? Thats why instead of demanding reparations they helped Japan rebuild?

hey . . . hey . . .you got to tell a japanese girl twice when you break up . . dropping the bomb twice before she gets it is the only way

Dude I get to make the nuke jokes.

Lol and we get to Blindfold our chinese workers with dental floss whats your point ?
