"Since when do we celebrate Halloween in South Africa, niyaphapha kodwa."

@PrayerTmos wrote:

"Halloween celebrates the end of summer and the beginning of harvest somewhere in Europe. In South Africa, Sumner is starting, and harvest is somewhere next year. Masepa a Halloween le di celebrity ba ho normaliza every western nonsense here."

@UnathiAfrika responded:

"Sometimes my worst fear is that no truly African brand or business will ever enjoy real success because Africans are way too brainwashed to believe in anything African."

@Ashley792948731 replied:

"These ones make me laugh, no matter how much they try, they still look like that kasi couple that’s trying too hard but still remain Crusty."

@kingwara_SA commented:

"Most people have a problem with this Halloween thing, but in December they will celebrate all the holidays, including 25 and 26. y'all celebrate what isn't yours because of who it belongs to. You all want them to see you blend in, just like a black woman who attends Church every Sunday and pays the fee."
