South Africa. Clusterfuck best describes the situation. Daily Rolling blackouts. Political uncertainty. Higher cost of living. Massive corruption. Brain drain as those who can are emigrating. But at least we have no war.

It’s the best type of fish ever…
Because I had to to create an account…
All of our country. We have 1 official electricity producer, but it has been run I to the ground. Google “eskom South africa” for more info. Short version is they cannot produce enough power so we have scheduled times pretty.much daily with no power. Here we call it load shedding. The power issues and lack of maintenence on infrastructure is affecting other things like water supply.The government has so much corruption we have actually seen the government protesting itself about service delivery. Google “Gupta state capture South africa” for an idea of this. Politics is very much like the US where minorities are scapegoats. The leader of the EFF , a populist radical opposition was for example quoted as saying “we are not calling for the killing of white people… at least not yet”. There are other issues, but I still think clusterfuck is the appropriate description. We are resilient though.
