Day 1357: My thoughts on the “Congress of Clowns” cartoon

“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an ass of yourself.” ― Oscar Wilde

 

It’s 12  : 29 PM on day 1357 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray, brush my teeth, read Psalm 44,  publish my Disability of the Day feature,  publish my  Kid of the Week feature,feed myself  egg with bread  for breakfast, promote my Eradicate AIDS campaign – on $819.54 and continue promoting my campaign while listening to music – still on $819.54 but I am great time singing along to music on YouTube I sound terrible but who cares it’s fun.

 

Yesterday I saw “Congress of Clowns” – a controversial cartoon which depicts Cabinet members as clowns and South African voters as ‘poephols’ –  I did think the cartoonists crossed the line when they referred to the South African voters as ‘poephols’ but at the end of the day the cartoonists were just expressing their opinion through their cartoon and the last time I checked expressing your opinion in South Africa is not a crime.
