“Bloody Capitalists – if there wasn’t capitalism then maybe we wouldn’t have to dance and sing to this ridiculous (and yet catchy!) song!”
The Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) exercised their land grab initiatives and parked a mobile stage on the east side of the Vuyisile Mini Square on Thursday 29 March 2018 to rouse up their supporters ahead of the No Confidence Motion in Nelson Mandela Bay Executive Mayor, Athol Trollip.
I saw that many of the swaying dancing people seemed to be inebriated with a substance other than love or hate of capitalism – and I presume that that substance was of a mind altering form that sloshes in a bottle – of course I could be wrong or just prejudiced against bottle store owning capitalists!
The queue you see toward the end of the video consists of people wanting an EFF T-Shirt. “No Party T-Shirt, No Dancing” seemed to be the order of the day.
The ANC (in the Southern section of the square) and the EFF (in the East) took turns in blasting the ears of all who didn’t want to listen as well as the pathetic few supporters hastily assembled.
One must observe though that the DA #SaveNMB rally the day before did seem to be more representative of the demographics of our Rainbow Nation!
