Every time somenone mentions Julius Malema and ANCYL in the same sentence I break out in hysteric laughter. Why anyone in this day and age would refer to him as a youth is beyond me. Unless ofcourse he matriculated at 37 and has the emotional maturity of an adolescent - which sounds entirely plausible....and don't bother with the cultural aspect of it - why should the elders recognize the youth when the youth of today has no respect or regard for the elders?

Malema is the biggest racist since Verwoerd!

If what La Shame is saying is true, then our educational system is far worse than expected?

Hey Puzzling Man, JM is certainly NOT a threat to anyone but himself. If God wanted JM to be dangerous, he would have given him brains. To you, La Shame, don't compete with Julius Malema. He is in a class of his own, mummy dropped him on his head when he was born!

Can you prove to a fool that he is an idiot? Dont even try you will lose...So really, leave this dumb ar*e along...He is the King of Idiots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leave Julius Malema alone. You have nothing against him or are you looking for people to blame when you are just bored. Malema respesents black South African Youth. What he says is what they feel generally. If you don't like it then you are are the "guy" he usually targets.

Although he does tend to have a bit of "sensationalism and fiction" on his comment to get more attention. He's building himself into a powerhouse so the more you complain the more black people will support him. Just like Zuma

Yawn ... Sic'im Cronin !!

I could have a lot to say regarding our beloved Julius, but, quite frankly, this annoying little smudge on the map of Africa deserves nothing more than to be ignored like a very well-demarcated, South African stop-street, which even the Great Sir Julius Malema does without any conscience, or fear of consequences. He is truly not, and never will be worthy of a single comment in his present state of totally brutal arrogance and his gross stupidity and criminal ignorance. At the first sign of his positive change, for which I am praying, I will be the first to recognize him as a potential patron saint for the misguided youth of this world. Maybe he is in line for a big surprise, although I must admit, there is little time left for pleasant surprises.

YCLSA & SACP should have first told Cronin not to use the media in discussing nationalization & Malema's views.Now that Juju has used the same tool,they see him doing the wrong.YCLSA & SACP should start to engage on how you will stand on your own come next election.As for painting the ANC red,just keep on dreaming.

I am really puzzled by all this fuss from the SACP and their YCL. Is it not the language they use with anyone who does not agree with them? Are they not the ones who embarked on a personal and misinformed assault on the previous ANC leadership? When people complained about the tone, they were told Malema is growing! Do they only realise now that he is retard when some few months ago he "won" the presidency of the YCL. Where was the YCL to tell other comrades that they are electing a retard. Is it chickens comming back...? the YCL is so intelligent indeed!!!!
