Brickbat: This Will End Well

The official Twitter account of South Africa’s ruling African National Congress appeared to call all of the nation’s white citizens murderers and said it was a mistake to consider their views. The tweet was later deleted and a subsequent tweet said they were quoting someone else. But critics note the tweet wasn’t a retweet, wasn’t in quotes and wasn’t attributed to anyone and that the ANC hasn’t explained why it quoted that person to begin with. The ANC explained further that they were quoting somebody who came to speak at a public hearing of the parliament’s constitutional review committee.
