Smuts hated pretentious people.
Smuts, “The spectacular victory in North Africa has impressed the doubtful, who now wish to be on the winning side. None so keen as those who come up when the fight has been won!”
Sir Keith Hancock, “There spoke the shrewd tactician, the wily politician whom friends and enemies alike, albeit in different tones of voice, called slim. (“slim” is typed in italics.)
Hancock, In all his battles on the home front he followed from start to finish of the war one simple rule –
… not to mind my political opponents too much, rather to ignore them and to concentrate on my own war and governmental business. That is the positive way, and means least waste of time and energy. The negative way of controverting your enemies and countering their knavish tricks is exciting but barren. Whenever you can afford it, ignore your opponents, don’t answer back, but give the public instead something constructive and positive of your own.

Steven Bailey you should not cloak yourself in anything resembling Smuts.You have no confidence. You are a sissy, a coward, an untrustworthy person.
There is nothing intellectual in your deceit.
You are very common.
I will repeat this in our fb messaging dialogue and then unfriend you.

Steven Bailey why didn’t you also place your “thumbs up” here, just like you did after reading it for the second time on Facebook messaging?You obviously proudly agree with my assessment.

You didn’t explain why you gave a “Thumbs up” when you inside you are angry.

Steven Bailey, are you drinking?The “Wow…So. Be. It” is pissed off hugely to a normal person.
A thumbs up can only relate to those words if you are angry.
Do you not see yourself in “I never said that”?https://www.2facetruth.com/i-never-said-that/

Steven Bailey, do you think Smuts would be surprised by your reaction to the killing fields of Urkaine?How much reading and understanding of Smuts have you done since hearing of him?
Why do you think he was written out of the history books right after his death on 11 September 1950?
Bailey, remember to answer the questions in order.
Do you think the beauty and the taste of delicious tasting food such as a perfectly ripe mango, has anything to do with G DNature’s design of us interpreting goodness, more than the actual nutrition?
Do you see a similar design in the human employing SOS [Salt Oil Sugar] to mask the taste of rotting, putrefying meat-dairy (Liquified meat)?
