The following note was written by Simphiwe Dana and I am posting it here as I
believe the ideas have merit and aught to be shared- and educate the masses (about Gogo Helen Zille's party. YES!).
What is Liberalism?
Liberalism is the idea, born out of a privileged existence, that if you can do it anyone else can. A skewed idea of equality that is blind to the socio-economic issues on the ground. An idea that, in fact, treats those mired in the most poverty with contempt. – “We’re equal so pull yourself yourself together man!” – is the liberal idea of equality. An idea that will give birth to a police state. Because it is oblivious to reality, but, must enforce law and order to protect its privilege. Liberalism post colonialism, is neo colonialism.
