MK seems to have some... worrisome supporters, including the leader of the "too radical and crazy even for EFF" Black First Land First (paywalled article but it does seem like Andile Mngxitama is supporting MK)

For some context on BLF, they had to be forced into changing their party charter to allow for white people to join, in order to re-register as a party. De facto, white people are still not allowed:

If EFF gets into power the US must immediately grant asylum to all white South Africans.

EFF are crazy but they're not quite to that level. That'd be BLF (Black First Land First) which I mentioned earlier in the thread, and they've struggled to even get 0.1% of the vote.

The Eff openly supports arming hamas
Yes, I did say they were crazy.

Mzansi first isn't particularly surprising, though DA being so far down is, though admittedly some of my answers might be a bit ignorant of the situation.

well, at least RISE is getting some seats... but this is looking like a mess generally.

As an aside, I didn't know off-hand how old Zuma is (82).
jeez, doesn't sound like MK will be a lasting force considering it's basically his personality cult from everything I could tell.
