I go on Google and I see that “south africa collapse” and “south africa civil war” is trending.
From what I’m seeing, the South African government has been shutting down the power grid for hours a day due to electricity shortage, and now there are fears of a total power outage that will undoubtedly cause massive civil unrest.
Can anybody tell me more about this? Are the Economic Freedom Fighters (or any other Marxist party) involved in this, and hopefully getting ready for when the conditions are right?


Your observations that you mentioned in your last paragraph are pretty much spot on. South Africa still has a very extreme wealth disparity along racial lines. An indication that the decolonization process is far from finished. And judging by the panicked, hysterical reaction of the white settlers the struggle has clearly been intensifying for a while now. Still its liberal bourgeois government is unlikely to ever take the steps necessary to finish the process. It would take some serious expropriation and land redistribution.
