Comrade Maila, You are such a hypocrite. You accuse comrades of attacking other comrades who have a dissenting views, while you are doing exactly the same. Why are you attacking Domza?
Are you saying the congress in Mangaung was dramatic because your preferred candidate was not elected? As for your reference to Comrades who joined in Maritzburg, I think you utterances are blatantly disrespectful, degrading and demeaning to the general comrades in this forum The language used by Comrade Vilakazi was so inspiring and refreshing and you spoilt it with your insulting and divisive language. I think if you had the best intentions of curbing personal attacks in this forum, there was no need to send that email. Comrade Kodlana >>> "KGALE GODFREY MAILA" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2008/10/15 02:01 PM >>> I couldn't agree with you more Cde Mdu, when you differ with what is termed "popular view in this forum, you are deemed reactionary and "abusing the platform". You will hear shouts such as "Domza please wipe away this lunatic", you will be told to engage not here, but at the "Friends of democracy website", otherwise for you to be taken as Cadre, "you must call cde Thabo a dead snake", then you are pro Zuma. These are some individuals whose views are so predictable to the extend that when I see their names reflecting on the screen, I become reluctant to read cause i know i will find insults only. But let us not blame them, lets give them chance, coz i am convinced they either joined ANC in Mangaung during that dramatic congress in the history of the League, or joined outside Maritzburg court on 12 September 2008. We have been here and will continue to engage. Funky Maila >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/14/08 12:49 PM >>> Comrade Terrence!! I wonder why you think in that way. Why do you suspect that those who raise their views are not independent but sent by "handlers". We should refrain from running this forum like a faction. I understand that this forum is for YCL that has preferred that ascendance of Msholozi to power however I think that we should allow people to air their views so that we are correctly located to analyze how society thinks. Our role as students of this communists is to give everyone a chance to cough out whatever that which could not be coughed out in relevant platforms. Your suggestion is correct in that there is no revolutionary platform that cannot be hijacked however we should not treat young minds with suspicion. Instead this forum should ensure that knowledge is transferred and regurgitated. Calling others dangerous defeat the purpose of this university. We cannot be a university of generally agreeing students, we need that dissenting voice. Contradictions breed development and I believe that the contradictory views that has occupied this cyberspace have one way or the other sharpened our reasoning capacities. The approach of doing away with those who do not share ones sentiments is against democratic values and cannot be applied in this university. However, reckless statements or writings done against anyone should be condemned. Equally, the leadership should guide us correctly by playing away from dangerous statements such as the following: "Last kick of a dying horse" - Who is a dying horse? "Dead snake" - Why do we call other comrades "dead snakes"? The language that our leaders adopted of late makes one to wonder what happened in high offices. Is this a way of saying there is us and them. Why do we allow leaders to divide this revolutionary movement. The triumph-alist approach will not allow us space to heal the organization. Instead it will deepen the crisis that many of us are denying its existence. Moving forward: The role of the ANC, Alliance and MDM structures is not to purge people or manage factionalism but to provide leadership where it is due. The campaigns for next year's elections will not be simpler than that of previous years. Let us put all our efforts in ensuring a massive victory for the ANC. Amandla!!
