I am gettin sick and tired of seeing the whining.

Everyday I see threads where people express their negativity about the country and then I see threads where people try to counter it by showing the positive aspects of the country etc etc.

Then people make subtle and not so subtle racist and derogitory remarks and people try to counter attack by accusing these people of being who racist, who go into a form of denialism and then the insults fly back and forth. Some people defend the government and others can't stand the fact that there is a black government in place.

The election results are out, lets move on and try and work together to make this country a better place and not turn it into a CUNNTry because thats what its becoming.

Its time for everyone to STFU and start working together. We all live here so we better make the best of our lot instead of whining and fighting all the time.
 
Dude if the government was white and running the country into the ground we would moan.

Whats wrong with good old fashion internet fight dude? :p

I think denialism would be to stop posting the negative things that happen in this country, nobody in zim can moan because the country has been run into the ground so how would working together solve the impending doom? :p

Precisely. Internet arguments are a waste of time. Imagine everyone channeled that energy and typing into something constructive instead of trying to prove a point that makes their forum nick look right.
 
Ok so how would doing that help the current problems in the country?

No point shoving stuff under a rug man, put it out there and debate the crap out of it, plus it passes time at work :)
 
You know, that's one thing I hate about South Africa. Everyone always telling each other to STFU as if you have no right to express your opinion! :)

OMG whether you are joking or not those kind of silly stupid comments are what adds to the nonsense.

Sure everyone can whine and talk about the problems as much as they want there is nobody stopping that at all and the ability to do so shouln't ever be taken away.

My point is simply that there is too much negativity going around about the country all the time. Nobody really wants to see positive or good. If this is how people are feeling online then its not difficult to guess that this kind of sentiment carries over into real life.

Sure theres a lot of fscked up stuff in SA but then again the same is happening in many other countries. SA isn't like Somalia or Zim last I checked and its not healthy to keep comparing as "Zim 2.0" all the time.

If a person keeps wallowing in self pity and negativity they don't get anywhere. Perhaps we should look at the USA as an example and how the people are over there. There are major problems there too but Americans have always been proud to be American and of their flag through thick and thin. We can never be as powerful as the USA but we can learn from them and from Barack Obama. Its not No We Can't, its YES WE CAN:)
 
No one is forcing you to read the posts. If you don't like them, go somewhere else.

I'm sure everyone at times feels exactly the way you do, however, I find it quite educational coming here and airing my views, and seeing others POV, even though they're always wrong :D This forum is a good place to start opening peoples eyes, for instance if I can make Nika understand you can't blindly support the ANC without making them accountble then it's been worth my time. Who knows he/she might go and tell another person etc etc, see wtf is going on with SA and next election use that knowledge to vote for a party that will benefit all instead of just voting for the "Liberators".


And even if I never convince Nika, at least I can say I tried, it's up to every SAFFA to go out and start educating people (politcally). Imagine what could happen in 5 years time at the next election....

Expressing an opinion is one thing. A healthy debate is never a bad thing. However the vast majority of these threads have been filled with racist retarded comments and i think that is what metalcore is referring to.
 
Kind of hard to be positive and proud when a rapist gets elected as president.

AIDS shower boy Zooma wasn't convicted of raping that young HIV+ girl, but he sure raped the justice system, and remember O J Simpson was not convicted of murder.

Now using your logic, we should not criticise the failing government if they don't happen to have the same colour skin as ours - that's doff.
