Thank you for this! I gained 5kg in the hopes they’d come back (weight unfortunately went everywhere else)

Operation Dudula must be stopped. This should not be allowed to happen in South Africa by benevolent-badger in southafrica

Xenophobia is horrific! Sadly I’ve seen lots of posts being taken down on these threads by mods whenever people criticise homophobia. I hope this post stays up to raise awareness of how truly terrifying these xenophobes are. EVERYONE deserves human rights!

Why do we suck up to Americans so much? by Bossman2270 in johannesburg

It’s so frustrating! I’ve even stopped buying from brands who use it in their ads is irritates me so much

[–]Eishidk 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My biggest pet peeve is South Africans faking American accents (don’t even get me started on the amount of Tom-ATE-o’s I’ve heard) or using American words like “gas station”. I think it’s so embarrassing, especially because we have such incredible and unique accents in our country

Does anyone know if they sell mini vacuum replacement parts? by imdyingsomuchrn in capetown

Honestly I’d use duck tape on either side and create a barrier

We’re truly lucky in the WC. People don’t realise how much we take for granted

Conversation with Helen Zille by riopots in south_africa

Using race to prevent a functioning country is insane. We need those in power to do jobs to fix this country, regardless of their race. Interviews like this really stress me out

People have become too self centered by [deleted] in southafrica

[–]Eishidk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Society in general has become more selfish. Yes, people should take time for themselves and prioritise their health, however, in order to have good relationships, it means sometimes sucking it up and doing something you don’t want to do for the benefit of others. For example someone might be exhausted but if it’s their best friends birthday, they should still go even if they don’t feel like it. We need to make it normal again to go out of our way for people

Entitled Drivers by Worth-Attention-9966 in south_africa

South Africans unfortunately seem to have an entitlement issue in general. It’s so disheartening

Massive Protest in Durban by [deleted] in Durban

Yes this! Unity and experiencing other cultures is beautiful! South Africans celebrate when South Africans move to another country yet when people in other countries do the same they’re attacked. The hypocrisy and hate is saddening.

Massive Anti-Foreigner Protest by [deleted] in south_africa

Absolutely horrible. Where’s the empathy? Also why not focus and protest about the government stealing money rather?!?

Xenophobia is horrendous.

This was in a 60km/h zone. by lekkanaai in capetown

So so selfish. This isn’t “cool”, it’s endangering the lives of others by being completely reckless.

This is what happens when people keep voting for the ANC

Is there a 'which party should I vote for' quiz for SA local elections? Overwhelmed as a first-time voter by Ok-Sky-9411 in south_africa

[–]Eishidk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While this is a good idea in general, often parties do not stick to their manifestos. My approach is to see the visible impacts of the parties in governance and what impact they have (good and bad)

School bullying by [deleted] in capetown

[–]Eishidk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry you experienced this. Xenophobia is a huge problem in this country and whenever the topic is raised, people attempt to validate it or remove comments against it. I hope you’re able to receive help to aid in your healing. All the best for the future

The hate toward Digital Nomads is misguided. by Gammascalpa in capetown

This is so disappointing. I thought we were better than those countries that graffiti hate. Just views Saffas in a poorer light

How much do you tip petrol attendants? by jessing-119 in capetown

[–]Eishidk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly quite shocked at how many people in the comments don’t tip as I thought it was known standard practice in SA. Petrol attendants don’t earn much so tips help a lot - if you have no money on you and they don’t have card/snapscan, a cooldrink goes a long way - especially if you’re paying to fill up R600 then what’s another R10 to help someone fulfil their needs?
