The ANC's destruction will continue

This weekend the ANC bigshots have gathered, once again, to decide over the fate of South Africa. Every now and then, one or two of them make an appearance to explain to the anxious nations what they are discussing; that is, the destruction and damage they are dreaming up this time.
Like: BBBEE have made us filthy rich over the last 30 years, and enabled us to retain power, so we will continue with it, regardless of the fact that it has flattened the rest of the country, and its economy, and turned it into a wasteland.
Like we continue with blatant racial discrimination against White South Africans, in the formats of so-called “Employment Equity” and “transformation”, regardless of what South Africa’s major trade partners may have to say about it, and the devastated economic implications it may have.
O, and yes, of course, we will resist the big, bad colonial colossal, called the United States of America, regardless of the implications, and the hundreds-and-thousands of employment opportunities it will cost. Our sovereignty is everything; even if it destroys the country’s economy. By the way, your bunch of looters and destructors, there is nothing like “absolute sovereignty” in a globalized world order. Just go and look at your friends, Venezuela, Cuba and Zimbabwe.
I don’t know whether the Government of National Unity will survive or not. Who cares anyway? Trump probably doesn’t even know who the hell “the Democratic Alliance” is – and he most likely doesn’t care one bit either. He has his own political, economic and ideological agenda; which, by the way, is directly opposite to (and clashing with) that of South Africa.
The DA is not actually [protecting the country against any economic collapse, other than prerational. And it does not delivery any tangible, meaningful value-added to the economy, Stop fooling yourself; their utterances in this regard are political propaganda, and nothing more.
And, o yes, Ms. Ramaphosa, Mantashe and Co, you are not “independent”, non-aligned, impartial parties holding the moral high ground in international affairs’ what you are, are Socialist ideologists with a hatred for everything Western, and a grotesque, egocentric view of yourself, based on an utterly skewed and wrong perception of your abilities and, especially, your standing and importance in the world. A country is only as important as its competitive means allows it to be, and you are constantly destroying South Africa’s capacity to be competitive.
Furthermore, you have long lost the moral, unquestionable high ground won by Nelson Mandela, which lasted during the 1990s, 2000s and even 2010s. Just look at yourself: Your midst is contaminated with lotters identified as perturbators in the Zondo commission reports, but failed mayors and public servants being promoted to government posts, to Phala-Phala accused, with blatant racists that prosecute the headmaster of an excellent school relentlessly for the ideologically-driven education of some type of “revenge.”
O, yes, by the way, Roelf Meyer, the South African government’s foreign policy is not "rights=based", and if the country's Constitution determines the current close relationship with expressive regimes, it is not worth following it. You are what you always have been: Talking up the side where your own personal best intersts lies. The reality of South Africa's foreign policy are Leftist Ideology, archaic revolutionary rhetoric and the mistaken belief in past greatness and untouchability.
Comrades, you are not “non-aligned” you are aligned with the loyalties of the past – with Cuba, with Venezuela, with Iran, with Hamas, with Iran and its brutally oppressive theocratical regime, with Brazil (because of its socialist president) and with China (because you believe Communist China will “safe” you from the hatred West [not toting that China is not a Communist state, but a despotic Capitalist one, and not acknowledging that China brutally oppresses ethic minorities in its borders]).
Western leaders have not only turned to the right of the political spectrum, and, with that, abandoned the “Mandela euphoria, and the “invisibility” of ANC leaders, but they leaders worldwide has got to know you, and don’t regard you as moral voices useful to their countries or regimes.
Here’s the thing: Trump doesn’t like you; he doesn’t like your ideology, he doesn’t like your liking of Leftist, anti-America regimes throughout the world, he absolutely despises your racist policies of “transformation”, or, as they call it in the USA, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. And, like it or not, once his anti-South African policies have been adopted by the US Congress, you will never again get rid of it.
He is going to sanction you; and it is going to hurt, like it did in Zimbabwe, Cuba and Venezuela. The United States will implement 30% tariffs on South Africa's exports, because its current rulers want to stick it to you. This will probably be followed by another 10% tariff, because of your obesssion with Brics. And, by the way, none of your relationships inside Brics is going to "make good" the destructive impact.
An you are not going to “moralize” yourself out of this quadrium, since the weight of your struggle decretals have since been overshadowed by your thievery, mismanagement and racists internal policies. And, at the end of the day, you are not actually Nelson Mandela proper.
And, o-yes, just for noting, even if global changes happen extremely and unexpectantly fast, the USA will still be the dominant economic power in the world for at least the next decade. In a decade, South Africa can collapses into utter destruction.
But it won’t change. The bunch of looting cadres will continue on their merry way, - into the abyss. And we will all be dragged along. That’s the ANC for you.
