I can’t say I understand much of this, but from your writings you seem to me to be a pretty decent sort of guy, so good luck to you Mike.

Helen Zille is head of the liberal opposition party in South Africa. I reported corruption to them and they destroyed me as part of the cover-up. I had to first post this letter but I will make the situation, corruption and intimidation understandable for my overseas readers over the next two posts. They will see similarities in their own countries in the West. Thanks!

I certainly don’t know the ins and outs of the story but will certainly support you with anything in my ability to do. You were one of my first follows when I came to this platform and have been an integral part of my information flow since.

You and Darkstar have been my early constants, and my appreciation. Larry Johnson never comments here but he sent me a bunch of subscribers. Kudos to Aleks at Black Sea Analysis for being a big help!

She sounds like our Nancy Pelosi who sees China and Putin behind every criticism and has stayed comfortably in power with insider trading wealth for decades making sexual charges stick against the opposition as far away as Assange. Keep up the good struggle. The resistance deserves solidarity.

Good observation. They share an ugliness of a fake moral character and, in their own territory, similar power behind the scene.

Now don't go kicking a hyena, unless you are prepared to fight it, Mike.For a young man you have an impressive amount of wisdom. I can hope you actually have that backup you talked about because when you kick one ,you're likely to get the whole pack fighting you. Not that I'm familiar with South African politics, but I bet it's the same as in the USA

Piss off the man,and ya get a bullet in the back of your head.

Actually you were the first person I subscribed to on Substack because I wanted to learn about South Africa.

Be safe,Mike.

(Sounds like a line from The Purge )

Well maybe we all will get a chance to play Purge this year.

That's truth.

I kicked this hyena long ago. It mauled me for years, and left me for dead. Taken a while to find all my pieces.
