In the Spirit of Stifling Freedom of Speech

I want to join the ruling African National Congress (ANC) and clamp down on the constitutional right to freedom of speech.

Though I know the proposed media tribunal that is conceptualised in the current protection of information Bill does not seek to ban certain annoying words/phrases from political parlance I am hoping this post will start a movement to do so.

Please add to the list of words, phrases, and jargon below that must be banned from the public and private spheres in South Africa:

1. "We in the ANC ..."

2. "What we are saying ..."

3. "What the people are saying ..."

4. "The issue of ..."

5. "Unpack"

6. "We must unpack the issue ..."

7. "Learners"

8. "Educators"

9. "They have not come to the party ..."

10. "And so on and so forth ..."

11. "We very much want to ..."

12. "Stakeholders and role players ..."

13. "Branding South Africa ..."

14. "As a matter of urgency ..."

15. "Actually"

16. "At the end of the day ..."

17. "The question of addressing ..."

18. "Just now ..."

19. "Ethnic blacks"

20. "In this regard ..."

Some organisations, gestures, and stuttering should also be banned.

We must unpack the question of the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) and its brand value to stakeholders. In this regard we should actually ban the SABC, and so on and so forth.

We should address and ban the issue of President Zuma's annoying habit of sucking and licking his lips during speeches because at the end of the day it sends a bad message to learners.

On another question of annoying gestures that must be banned, can someone please tell the Democratic Alliance leader, Helen Zille, that she needs to stop toy-toying immediately as a matter of urgency because it is disrespectful to ethnic blacks.



Finally, there seems to be a stuttering probelem among ruling politicians and their boeties or role playaz.

Educators need to step in and unpack this issue and ban stuttering.

We can't go on actually saying:"We we we we are saying that that to to to move forward there there there is is need to to to ...", and so on and so forth.

We cannot also say "ja nee" (yes no) when answering a question or starting a sentence because it is just not on (ja nee ban this saying too).

South Africans need to come to the party on these ishshoes.

Eish! (Definitely ban this exclamation especially among non-African South Africans like the indigenous Khoisan, coloureds, Indians, Afrikaans people, Afrikaners, Malays, black Chinese and Asian Chinese because it too is actually disrespectful to the real Africans or ethnic Blacks.)

Ps. Ban blogging too because only rich non-Africans like whites and Indians are online in South Africa and, therefore, not representative of the people. ;0)
