I wonder how SA would’ve been if racial segregation was never implemented

Can you imagine how SA would’ve been if they had chosen the path of equality in 1948?
(lol, I’m just mourning the could haves and the would haves)

If they had invested in their human capital (of all races) and didn’t restrict the skills, education and movement of the majority of the population, we would’ve probably been a first-world country by now.

We could’ve been an economic superpower and had a world-class education system where equal funding would’ve produced generations of scientists, engineers, doctors and entrepreneurs from all racial groups.

Like, we would’ve had integrated communities and connected cities instead of the spatial planning that intentionally built separate, under-resourced townships far away from economic hubs.

Heck, we could’ve been living in harmony instead of constantly fighting each other.

I always wonder how things would’ve been if they hadn’t gone down the apartheid route.

Trevor Noah podcast

I have a theory that Trevor Noah is slowly exploring what it means to be a socialist and what socialism and communism actually is through his podcast, What Now? I say this because he's been very much a liberal or even maybe a slightly left leaning person especially for the time he's been in the States, but now while still having a lot of liberal guests and comedians, he's had on Mayor Mamdani and Hasan Piker and I'm about to watch his latest episode with Alice Han and judging from the title, he's looking to discuss what might actually be happening in China instead of listening to mainstream media. I might be wrong, but Trevor Noah might be evolving into a democratic socialist. Any opinions on Trevor or my theory (let the record state: I'm a coloured dude from the burbs who grew up watching Trevor Noah and see him as a role model so please don't insult him too much, but constructive criticism is welcomed🙏)

Neo-Liberal scare

Is it just me or does anyone else notice how South Africa is not only becoming even more right wing than it already was, but the use of a type of neo-liberalism to get us to this point. Like Regan and Thatcher in the 70's, South Africa after apartheid ended has seen many government owned entities like ESKOM and TELKOM (I feel) purposefully run into the ground in order to eventually become privatized and along the way the entities coffers get raided by ministers and board members and whatever other external hands had their fingers in the pie. This holds true even for our public healthcare system too. For me this seems similar in many ways to how especially Reagon convinced white working class Americans that their government shouldn't have a welfare state and tool so much power away from unions. It seems to be the same is happening in South Africa although with a few different tactics used instead because now whenever I talk to people about how if we want to fix our overly exaggerated immigrant issue, it starts with our government that has allowed this to happen in so many ways whether it be home affairs, SAPS or border control and people would much rather take this issue into their own hands. I can't be the only one seeing how we are being sold out to private corporations and instead of holding our government accountable or even better, fixing it, we turn to infighting or tribalism and afrophobia and downright racism
