S.Africa: Blacks: To Avoid AIDS: Have Sex with Animals...
At one point AIDS was killing Blacks like crazy. Then the West came and saved their worthless lives.
[An Australian reader wrote these fascinating comments. This is the first time that I've heard of voting being compulsory in a country. My own thinking, since I, like Alex Linder, don't vote, is that when people refuse to vote, that should fall into a special category, and if that number increases to a certain level then some kind of action needs to be taken. Its not a thing I've thought through properly, but I think when people REFUSE TO VOTE, that that itself is a vote against the system and it needs a special kind of treatment. I also think that voting for political parties is itself a subversion of the concept of voting. You should vote for PEOPLE. Like when Americans vote for a President. The Australian system is food for thought. Jan]
This is what the reader wrote:
Interesting. At least in Australia with compulsory voting, bad as it is, they know exactly how many votes to expect. Everyone on the electoral role has to vote or get a fine if they don’t give a valid reason. Compulsory voting does work in favour of the left though who would probably never win an election without it.
S.Africa: Survey: Its not unusual for married Black men to have sex with other men
In much of Africa sex with men is despised. But in S.Africa it‘s not. FORGET about the other woman a fair number of married men in South Africa are getting their kicks in secret with other men.
