Posting here consistently reinforces two things: 1) South Africans love browsing opinion pieces; and 2) They generally can’t be bothered to post responses. Here’s some research.

I'm seeing increasingly elaborate strategies to 'bring down the system' of e-Tolling, but drivers are ignoring one simple fact.

Why does one devote time to a discussion platform? Because you like the debate it provides, and you feel your opinions are heard.

If there's one thing which every debate here proves, it is that there is no such thing as a conclusive victory.

In any debate there is always more than just two polar opposites, but that compromise solution is often overlooked in the rhetoric.

Is there anybody else out there who's as blown away by the revival of Zef music as I am at the moment?

You know that feeling you get when you are lost, and driving down a road, and you don't know whether you're getting further away from your intended destination or not?

Reading news reports of violent crime, I often wonder how balanced a picture the media is portraying to us. Moreover, what do police statistics show us?

You know how skilled we've all become at turning our heads away from beggars at the traffic lights, waiting the requisite few seconds and then driving off?

I must be a sucker for punishment, always writing stories with outrageous admissions, but hey: yes, bought an e-Tag!

The perception that what we're doing on the internet is anonymous is a nice fallacy, isn't it?

I hate character assassinations, but if there's on person on here I - and a considerable number of others - cannot stand, it's Thoughtsandstuff.

Sometimes I wish that kids were provided with a little book at school - one which explained frankly what they could expect from life

What gets to me is when somebody I actually know says something needlessly bitchy in real life. Every single time, I'm left speechless.

Worried about corruption in government or business? Don't be! Worried about rich people who buy yet another extravagant Ferrari? Don't be!

If there's one thing which the 'Noworths' campaign has made clear, it's that there's a significant number of South Africans who still have no clue about what BEE is.

Everybody here has said their piece about Marikana, one way or the other, but nobody has had all the facts.

I've been spending a bit of time thinking about a recent story posted on here by a woman who would pay for poor people's groceries in the queue at the shops.

As it turns out, forming a political party is pretty easy, and there have been some remarkably creative parties whose applications have been rejected.

People deliberately come online with an axe to grind, and I can't help noticing that the people with the worst comments are the ones you never see posting articles themselves.

Nobody is asking here, what COULD the police have done differently and how have they changed their ways going forward to avoid this scenario again?

No, not really, but I thought the headline might just get people who’ve sent teams of hitmen to find me after my previous article to read this one.

What counts for me is that I have everything I need from Government.

In my personal experience, living in South Africa, politics has been the backing soundtrack to my life, but not the dominant tune.

People often like to blame the politicians for dividing society into racial groups, but in terms of packaging humans into commoditised parcels, can't marketers be held the most to blame?

You'll notice I said 'South Africans', not 'blacks' or 'whites' or 'Indians' etc. This is not an article about a specific group, but rather racism itself.

It is bigots' racism which gives the radicals from ANCYL valid ammunition for their senseless policies, and grant further impetus to the ANC's efforts for a 'Second Transition'.

As the latest topic here is raging around farm attacks, let me just add a little perspective.

Allow me a chance to bring my own take on the religious debate which is raging.

I am disgusted that I could let a man who so clearly loves women trick me into believing that he'd love a man like me.

To all the atheist intellectuals who love to demean religious people at every opportunity with half-baked quotes and half-remembered science, I have one question.

I get the feeling that Jacob Zuma is starting to be a little ostracised, not least because of the Spear painting, and not only by Malema's supporters.

While we're all busy freezing to death and fearing what else Winter has in store for us, here are a few thoughts to warm you up...

Fireworks. If I had to choose one word to represent MyNews24, that would be it.

Bikers need to "Think Car", not the other way around.

Oh, South Africa, how far have you fallen? I remember a time, not so long ago, where it was fashionable to refer to black people as Previously Disadvantaged Individuals.

I want to propose a New Year's pledge for those who will adopt it, which I want to take as well: a pledge of tolerance.

I don't know about you, but if somebody kills a family member of mine, I'm not going to do business with them.

My wife is looking forward to having kids, so that she can tell them all about Santa and hide presents under the tree for them.

I'm sure we've all realised that the solution to poverty isn't to be found in capitalism.

I don't get the fuss over a 24-hour porn channel in South Africa. For the fundamentalists, this is yet another sign of the 'end times'.
