EFF: Durban's name should've changed long ago

[ForceFate]

At least zulu doesn't have the funny clicks.

It does, though less than Xhosa. siSwati doesn't have clicks afaik.

 

[Quicks]

EFF OFF!

 

[Kosmik]

Oh go find a little rock to hide under Vusi.

The Zulu's gifted the land that Durban is on to the Brits largely so you actually don't really get much of a say, no land was stolen from you.

Yep, leave it alone.

Moses Kotane municipality exists

That's not a problem.

just hit your head with the keyboard.
Pick the first 8 letters.

This is my lol comment of the year . Thanks Mila. Really laughed right now.

 

[ForceFate]

That's not a problem.

You want 2 local municipalities named Moses Kotane under one district municipality?

Leave us out of it bro.

For a moment bru I thought you were trying to pin the blame on poor Carl, just don't! Chill and revel in the afterglow of ANC black excellence, don't feel left out, most ANC supporters are quite happy with the current status quo.

Carl is part of the ANC. He benefits from the ANC directly.

As the reddit would say, this is suspiciously specific. What is your name again?

 

[Not_original]

Wonder what fcked up name they'll think out for Rustenburg...

Lalalêbietja

They should be more concerned with The "Natal" part methinks. Plenty of slavery took place there while it was a Portugese outpost. But I suppose the active participation in the slave trade by some tribes might be more comfortably left in the past and forgotten.

Poesplaas...

You miss good old days?

EFF's name should be changed along time ago to WTF

 

[Herr der Verboten]

Quite surprised they haven't changed the more rural areas first. Some seriously offensive ones out there.

As an example, go to google maps and type in the k word in the search box. Would have thought that those would be the very first ones to go.

White words hurts

[Wut]

Shouldn't they start in their own ranks? Isn't "Julius" a very European sounding name?

 

[Mekon]

I'm still disappointed Piet Retief wasn't renamed Dingaansdorp/-ville. Do like the Klingons and Necromongers and keep what you kill.

I'd go and murder Kim Kardashian's daughter if it means I'd get a province named after me.

No!!! Rather Kim Kardashian. The mere fact that my google keyboard comes up with Kardashian as the next word when I type Kim but is totally out of its depth when I type Mr and it has nothing........ Not Bean or Smith, just totally clueless. It makes me want to murder a Kim.

 

[Mekon]

In my view change must happen and it must be dealt so decisively. Change is too slow.

Globally, it is politically supported though it is in doubt economically.

The ANC should grow a pair, and do as promised.

So yeah, rename Durban, open up the ports to BRICS. Get done with it.

Failing infrastructure, bankrupt municipalities, the usual corruption and general stupidity, but wasting money on renaming everything to let the comrades feel better about themselves is petty. But that's how the cANCer rolls.

While Durban was discovered and named by the Portuguese, they never established a colony. A permanent colony was only established 300 years later by colonialists from Capetown
