Eish!Ya! I wasn’t expecting your lecture or say your project presentation on saving electricity and importantly your “most wanted career” which ofcourse is good for you and my sincere congratulations.
Your presentation is so slipshod, so loose-joined, so puerile, not alone in literary construction, but in its ugly ideas last seen during Bantustan puppets that died as traitors or madmen.Not of surprise some have found a better place in our ranks and they are extremely confused now. Perhaps let’s not easily forget that majority of the so called comrades recruited in millions in our ranks are the sons and daughters of the Bantustan ministers grewup in the ideology of selfishness and high class “arrogancy”. You failed completely to answer my question hiding behind the “copy and paste research documents” as if I do not have resources.I wondered how you can be part of the congress movement realising fact that you seems to have grasp too much of prestigious schools culture which sees poverty as natural phenomenon. While we may in most instances come to agreee agree on the issue of political labeling but we must be capable of drawing the dermaction lines correct in using explicit labeling as political labeling.I’m million times correct that you wouldn’t yourself agree on labeling that undermines thousands of young people in those trade unions calling their "private parts" in the name of political labeling.Wondering the consequence of your unplanned utterance if your Elite Branch members ,majority are from those you term “drunkards affiliates of Cosatu”.Critical to these is the showcase of your behavior with a rigid,ambitious with too much genius and too little common sense. In my political life, I have labeled many comrades and have been labeled as well , often times in front of general membership.In this game of political labeling I have learned throughout the limitations involve through practical experience when people were shot dead,beaten in the meetings. Thanks and not expecting any reponse.
