      He knows he is guilty

      An innocent man would have just gotten arrested and fixed it in court.

      South Africa isn’t an emerging economy either. It’s also submerging. Rolling blackouts, failing infrastructure, unemployment north of 30% (officially, unofficially it’s probably closer to 60) and rising. It’s a failed state, it just doesn’t know it yet.

        Oh, we know it, and the ones that can are leaving the sinking ship. I really miss it tho, it’ll always be home. One of the most beautiful countries with amazing people destroyed by greed and corruption.
