DARK HUMOUR

9th June 2023

By: Darlene Creamer

     

Font size: - +

South Africans are known to use humour as a coping mechanism against many of the difficulties they face, from nonsensical political statements to corruption and incompetence. Citizens have become decidedly humourless, however, as daily power cuts affect their livelihoods, their ability to study and even to cook and relax. Likewise, there is frustration at the many mixed messages emerging from various politicians – a trend that has intensified as more and more Ministers are given responsibility for solving the crisis. Some with decidedly more powers to act than others.
