It is becoming impossible to ignore the degree to which @X’s algorithm is being manipulated to prioritize right-wing content and Western-aligned commentators.

¿Quién mató a Muammar Gadafi 🇱🇾? ¿Quién mató a Thomas Sankara 🇧🇫? ¿Quién mató a Patrice Lumumba 🇨🇩? ¿Quién mató a Samora Machel 🇲🇿? ¿Quién mató a Amílcar Cabral 🇬🇼🇨🇻? ¿Quién mató a Ali Soilih 🇰🇲? ¿Quién mató a Sylvanus Olympio 🇹🇬? ¿Quién mató a Ruben Um Nyobé 🇨🇲? ¿Quién mató a Steve Biko 🇿🇦? ¿Quién mató a Richard Ratsimandrava 🇲🇬? ¿Quién derrocó a Kwame Nkrumah 🇬🇭? Podría seguir el listado. ¿Cuál es la autoridad moral europea para hablar tan a la ligera y, más aún, teniendo ese prontuario en África?

Russia’s expanding influence in Africa carries a darker side: armed pressure, exploitation, and forced recruitment.

When Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso began building their own security and political cooperation, they challenged an old colonial assumption: that African states must look outside the continent for protection.

Nos vendieron en Europa que Rusia se quedaría sola con la Guerra de Ucrania. Y hoy 48 de 54 países de Unión Africana han participado en la III Cumbre Rusia-África celebrada en el Kremlin "Por la paz, la seguridad y el desarrollo". Europa está perdida.

Putin says Africa's absence from UN Security Council permanent seats 'should not be the case' 'The world is changing, Africa is changing, Africa is gaining strength,' he notes 'We have stated, and we agree with this, the role of Africa will grow'

What is nauseating, sad and unacceptable about this is that such crimes are taking place in South Africa and in broad day light and @SAPoliceService and law enforcement agencies are not taking action. Crime has now been normalised in South Africa. ^Ian @ParliamentofRSA

That’s the multibillion-rand question. SA’s lawlessness is driven by a cocktail of factors, but at root, successive @MYANC governments failed to deliver fundamental socio-economic, educational and political reforms. So, we keep turning on each other and drowning in crime. ^Chipo

All the criminals involved in the Eldorado Park robbery of an e-hailing driver have been arrested and are awaiting court appearances. The victim survived, he is out there somewhere, traumatised by the horrific ordeal. These criminals are aged between 15 & 21. How did we get here?
