Third speaker:
1. The West is only pursuing white power.
2. The Rand was adjusted up and down during the GNU negotiations in order to manipulate the negotiations.
3. She does not want to discuss which ideological box is better and who fits in that box. She wants to unite upon the removal of the overarching ideology of capitalism.
4. We need our own philosophy and project for the socio-economic upliftment of the people, and do not compromise on this project.
5. The people on the ground are not interested in your religion or ideology. They want to know how they will be empowered.
6. We can unite upon a common vision.
QnA
1. Narrative is driven by those who fund mass media.
2. GNU and DA will be credited with all wins in media, regardless of whether they deserve it.
3. White power is married to neoliberalism.
4. Social media has opened the door to alternative narratives.
5. The GNU is a colonial regime.
6. The spectrum of discourse has shifted so far towards neoliberalism, that the other side need to be represented.
7. The GNU will take care of the white population and corporates.
8. The playing field was never level and still not level, in the GNU Alliance.
9. We had the freedom to vote, but not the freedom to live a quality life.
10. Let’s make our voices heard. Civil society must determine the GNU plan and direct them or reject the GNU.
11. The West supported the DA, because SA could become economically independent from them, if BRICS rises.
12. The DA is against BRICS and the world is inevitably moving towards the global south.
13. The ANC stood for Justice and Human rights, so you can call the m to account for that.
14. The DA never stood for values and justice, so you can’t call them to account for that.
Conclusion:
They have removed morality and values and decency from the discourse because that’s not how power works, but’s that’s how people work. So we expect you to govern by that means too. You need to have a population with those values, so the leadership can represent those values. The ANC stood for those values in the past and we need to reignite the discussion on ANC and GNU values.
Also economy is driving unity and interdependence.
