The Shady South African: Recent Episodes
Atlas Review | Ruben van Niekerk
This is an in-depth discovery into South Africa and its people. How we interact with each other, our surrounding and how our values, beliefs and circumstances dictate our behavior. Join us on this journey of discovery where we don't just dish the tea and spill the beans but get outrageously shady, serious and above all to the core of who we are as individuals.
We all have them. We all love them. What are we talking about, well you will have to listen to find out.
You though it was just a song not a lifestyle. Today we break our silence, which no-one asked for, the topic on everyone's mind 'Breathing'?....well not exactly but something that comes just as natural.
Do we have the right to judge people based on their beliefs? There are how many gods? You believe in what!
What would you do if the world ended tomorrow? Would you go completely bonkers? Do you have a plan for the purge? If not listen and learn.
Just corrupt or a cult of corrupt individuals who only believe in self serving? The South African Political system, police system or SAPS and multiple other institutions have become a group of organized criminals rather than organizations who serve the community they were appointed to serve.
"Can we have a break?" - Ruben van Niekerk
Tolerance is all that is asked. We know that certain lifestyles aren't for everyone but we as a society can support and tolerate one another.
It is a new age, a new world but has society and its views changed with the times? Or have some outdated traditions and value systems been kept in place to devalue and bash marginalized communities?
Lend us your time, ears, or ear and have a listen at what we have to say about all things life and its ups and downs...todays topic? Tattoos as forms of self harm? Can a 7 year old know they are gay? Let us know what you think.
"We see more and more each day that the important legislation, reforms, and important issues are not being addressed, it rather appears that our so-called ‘leaders’ and I use that term loosely, are gaslighting and stonewalling us to get themselves elected and re-elected."
We have a discussion of ways to disrupt the norm and create change. This is the first episode of our Politically Passable series.
