RantWoman has South Africa on her mind.
RantWoman's morning news junkie NPR fix included commentary about the African National Congress, ANC, historically supported by the Soviet Union and current relations to Russia. RantWoman does not unfortunately remember the name or title of the South African official being interviewed. He was spewing pretty standard Russian disinformation about how the war in Ukraine is all NATO's fault.
In other words, the South African government may have barely a fig leaf of neutrality. At the same time, there are private actors all over the place in this war and RantWoman is not qualified to opine beyond noting all the strands of reporting.
And for a window into current South African realities:
RantWoman is posting this BBC reporting as is, as honest commentary about reality.
RantWoman is pointedly not discussing coal-fired power plants and global warming.
RantWoman is also staying FAR away from apartheid era narratives about "those Black people can't run anything."
