Greetings cdes I do believe when all is lost or is about to get lost, commiting political somersaults becomes one of the real avenues to take. So the real issue is not really debating the merits or the demerits of Floyds input or claims. But what his suggestions [no matter how ridiculous] actually reveal. Floyd systematically attacks the intergrity of the ANC and some here are still prepared to debate the justification of such an attack by calling those who are doing the right thing [calling a spade a spade] as degenarating or labelling, whereas Floyd commited that first.
Floyd is commiting a 'tactic of convenience' thru doing an intellectual trick that we have always known. His act of persuasion aimed to convince you that his judgement and actions are principled, and this can not be far from the truth. In essence this act can be characterised as being opportunistic. For example in his concluding remarks, he utters "Only factionalists and proponents of tribalism and corruption can stand opposed to the accountability of the leadership and unfortunately, I am not one." Wow what a noble cde. If you differ with him, he has already labelled you as 'tribal' or proponent of tribalism and corruption. So cdes you may decide where I fall. He equally draws out a rabbit out of a hat by suggesting that his article is about encouraging us to be proponents of leadership accountability', as if his way is the principled way. Leadership accountability has nothing to do with the purpose of the unplugged article, but fighting for a survival does. But if you believe in magics and magicians you can believe him, but I am not one to do so. I treat all tricks as such. What this magician will not tell you is that he has conciously decided to commit a self-serving tactic to take advantage of a circumstance with little regard for principles or with what the consequences are for others and the welfare of the organization to fight his and his cronies survival. A trickster does not show you everything they show you what they want you to see, hence its a trick. Your responsibility as communist or an aspiring communist is to un-mask the real intentions of this unplugged fellow. This fellow attempts to deepen the so called "credibility crisis" to the public which is a reactionary act thru and thru. He comes out as telling the truth in time of deceit but we know telling opportunistic truth, the ver same truth becomes one of the first casualties.
