US Authoritarianism

Yeah corruption is corruption, be it the US government or the SA Government. Problem in both is how it becomes entrenched and keeping themselves elected through blind following and populists rhetoric. Also the ANC needs the white supremacist, their enemy or WMC/snowball if we are talking Orwellian, to distract from their base while buying their votes with t-shirts.

At least here in SA our courts have not yet been politicised too much, even though some politicians try, cough cough Zuma cough. At least certain institutions have stood their ground to government interference, like the courts or reserve bank for example.
