Frans Cronje: Mbeki Says Dropping BEE Means Revolution. It's the ANC That's Being Overthrown

The Common Sense

Thabo Mbeki's 120-page thesis blames a counter-revolution planted inside the ANC for the party's collapse, and warns that abandoning BEE would bring a violent uprising. Frans Cronje explains why the ANC's own policies brought it down, why taxing capital left South Africa with less investment, and why the revolution Mbeki fears is already aimed at the ANC itself.

He shouldn’t have bothered writing it. The ANC did this to themselves. Everyone can see this

The architect of neo-Apartheid. And yet his brother, Moeletsi, makes so much sense.

Just look at July riots. Everyone stood together and said enough. anc are a dead criminal organisation trying to pretend they have power.🤣🤣🤣

Mbeki is no longer the person we thought he was when he was president. There is a reason there is something such as a retirement age.

Only a handful of rich and connected cadres will revolt. The rest won't even notice.

Revolusion is what they stood for in the '80's and it still what they stand for 40+ years later. Nothing more nothing less. Instead of governing, they are still in a revolusion mindset.

Brilliant ❤ huge respect for Frans Cronje

The problem is that the ANC leadership (like Mbeki) believes the country cannot do without the ANC. Just the opposite, get rid of the ANC and we will prosper!

They are children. Cannot take responsibility for anything.

The challenge is BEE has created a bunch of super wealthy misfits that have never earned a cent of what they have. Zero understanding of life and economy and very high expectations!!!!

Good. Let’s undermine this ANC revolution.

Now we know how much they benefit from BBBEE.

Mbeki is way beyond his sell by date. A has been that never was.

BEE is essential for the survival of ANC for enriching small, politically connected elite, not empowering the impoverished. ANC is now suffering financially and in decline because of shrinking patronage from BEE benificiaries caused by public scrutiny as a result of no longer fully in power. This will get worce if they lose the cities

Mbeki is right. Fikile is the plant in the ANC. He has a perfect track record, unblemished by success. Everything he has been head of is destroyed. Fikile is our best plant yet, so proud of him.

Frans Gronje should be directly involved in government policy.....he is politically stable with a vision of what we need to achieve that is as close to perfect as it can be for our nation.
Rassie for president with Frans as the minister of finance😊

The terrible violence may occur, but not for the reasons TM presents. More likely because BEE rentseeking is now the largest organised crime industry in this country and they will resort to violence if the cash cow is slaughtered.
