It's quite sad that she has the balls to say what needs to be said and put this entitled idiots in their place, but now the DA want to take action against her.
They shouldn't mistake their voter base for a few ANC plants on twitter. Black people voting DA aren't that stupid, they're pandering to idiots and it's going to cost them.

She’s a bloody hypocrite, quick to espouse the positives of colonialism but won’t say schite about the positives brought about by the Nazis. She won’t dare disrespect Jewish people but will thumb her nose at black people.

Black DA voters see this and will remember. If this carries on the DA will catch a serious wake-up in 2019.

Yep trolling is exactly what the DA, and SA need, not to actually grow the voter base large enough to one day have a chance of unseating the ANC.
The DA needs a bloodied nose, f-em. Whether it's the capies who deliver it to them with this BS in Cape Town or Zille delivering an own goal I don't care. They desperately need and deserve a bloodied nose.

They'll never unseat the ANC fyi, and they were never going to.

:wtf: what possible obligation does she have on the topic of Nazi's, do you see a single soul hunting for political points by blaming the holocaust for all their misfortune in South Africa? No.

You see that happening in South Africa on the topic of colonialism though, so a South African politician comments on a South African issue and people ask why she doesn't also comment on a largely non-South African topic in history as well?!? o_O

Don’t be an idiot. If she wants to call out black people on the positives of colonialism, black people can call her out on the positives of Nazi Germany. Funny how she can name all the positive things colonialists did but none of the positives the Nazis did.

It doesn't matter whether she's right or wrong.... she's just a liability to the party now.
She doesn't know how to use tact or decorum.
Shje just shoots her mouth off and alienates people from this party.

If they want to keep her around, then might as well just make this a Whites only party since that's who her tweets appeal to.

Sure they can, they're entitled to put their idiocy on display. Nazi Germany has virtually f-all to do with South Africa. It's the most absurd whataboutism I've seen in the news in ages.

Might as well ask her to comment on how Japan only became an industrial powerhouse because that cnut Truman nuked them twice. So what?!? How is that relevant to us? ... It isn't.

DA threatens to charge Zille over water colonialism tweets
Very disappointed in Zille. - she is mirroring sentiments expressed by many myBB DA supporters. I thought last time was just honest mistake. This looks almost intentional now. This is likely to erode voter base that was gained by Maimane. Sad.

Yep excuses for Zilles hypocrisy as expected from MyBB. If Zille was just some random woman sure, but identifying hypocrisy in your leaders is always relevant.

Her tweets appeal to anyone who aren't completely stupid.
And only the worst kind of SJW would take offence at the truth.

Because she’s Jewish duh, and the subject is a close analogue.

I don’t know about you but I’d like a decent amount of congruency from my politicians. Pipe dream I know.

Helen making sure that the outcome of 2019 is decided well in advance.

DA stronghold running out of water has already done that. I think Zille is looking to get off the rollercoaster ride that is the DA.

You are the hypocrite who believes in free speech but would deny others the right to exercise it. Get some ointment for that butthurt.

Who am I denying their right to free speech?

Lol you guys should join the other "Jews are evil and control the world" thread, that served as some entertainment yesterday.
