The influence may be through a range of state institutions, including the LEGISLATURE, EXECUTIVES, ministries and the JUDICIARY, or through a corrupt electoral process
So how did the Guptas (3 brothers) have power to influence these arms of state?
Well, the media lied to you!

In state capture, decision-makers are usually more in a position of agents to the principals, the captors, who function either in monopolistic or non-competitive fashion
In SA, its known as White Monolopy Capital and they HATE competition
Again; the media never told you this

Political Analyst: Aubrey [Gogo] Matshiqi explains it here:
President Zuma engaging students; asking what is State Capture and how was South Africa captured?
The term was deliberately used in Madonsela's political report to create an impression policies of government were manipulated, parliament and judiciary was CAPTURED

Real State Capture!

So if this lie that Zuma enabled "state capture" why have they NEVER provided evidence? The very same people who were all over radio and news channels.
Any form of evidence invoices; bank statements; contracts; phone calls; texts, anything, why?
Because they don't have it

During apartheid when black people were interrogated; they used the same psychological tactic of messing up your psyche, the CIA operation
They'd end up seeing things that don't even exist; that's how others became informants; they couldn't handle the mental torture

Constantly saying the state was captured is a mental game used to manipulate the weak mind. Its so you believe it existed even though NO ONE has ever produced EVIDENCE
Its repeated over and over so people will think there was such when there wasn't

Truth of the matter is Zuma never enabled the nonsense you were constantly told about; corruption is corruption and has always been there since apartheid even worse now after he resigned
A thief must be investigated; prosecuted and charged. Using political slogans is dumb

Its even concerning that this country has lawyers; law makers etc yet have failed to address all this imaginary "state capture" nonsense. Its actually an insult to the law fraternity
How do you explain the so called capture when you've never seen EVIDENCE but just a narrative?

We're in this disastrous mess in SA because people failed to ask questions; simple "Where is the EVIDENCE?" Surely if you're accused of wrongdoing you should be furnished with such?
The ANC never showed Zuma evidence yet told him to step down. Isn't that setting a bad precedent?

People must be careful of playing dirty personal politics because eventually it backfires
Those who claimed they were "clean" "not corrupt" are the ones accused of stealing Covid-19 billions. Now its difficult to say they're corrupt because you've shown the faces of the corrupt

Everything which was done to Zuma will happen to all Presidents; current & future because a bad precedent was set by the ANC, opposition parties and the media
In fact, it will be worse; people will be asking questions, "if this was done or said about Zuma why has it changed?"

Always be careful of falling into the trap of believing everything you're told by oppressors; if they didn't see anything wrong with apartheid you expect them to glorify black people?
Everyone has their agenda and wants to benefit something at the end
There was NO State Capture

In SA, the State has always been controlled by a few families; the Ruperts; Oppenheimers; Ackermans and others
How were the Guptas going to capture a State when there was a judiciary; parliament; and people who were overseeing processes? Are you saying they too were captured?

If you're too weak and gullible they will mess up with you; make you hate people who were fighting for you and love those who'll take away everything from you
So; ever since you've marched for Zuma to resign; how has your life changed?

The wasteful Zondo Commission has spent close to R1 Billion of taxpayers money, not single person has provided substantial evidence of how Zuma enabled so called imaginary "State Capture"
It has become a very expensive Talk Show; Zondo is even under pressure to "find something"

Lastly! Politics are nasty but be careful of politicising things that will come at a cost and not yield results at the end
Those who were making noise are quiet now because nothing is coming out of their allegations
SAns are not stupid; they can see exactly what's happening
