“South Africa is not suffering from a lack of laws. It is suffering because those in power refuse to enforce them. Institutions, government officials, law officers, NGO, mainstream media, and commissions benefit from lawlessness. They create distractions with new laws, institutions, and commissions while they profit from the chaos. That is why real accountability never happens. There are no consequences or repercussions for those who break the law.”

“They exploit, disrespect, and sabotage Black people, then cry victim when held accountable. They never saw themselves as part of us until they needed support. Now they want the same people they betrayed to defend them. They should know and learn that accountability is not oppression.”

“The real issue is that we chose to punish and shame everyone except the offender. We are directing blame at everyone but the one responsible. Instead of confronting the truth, we have decided to hide it, make excuses, and protect the offender. Misplaced anger won’t solve our problems. It only makes them worse. We turn good people into enemies because of the hate and pain we carry in our hearts.”
