I do understand that people are angry because of racism, I do understand that the economy is still in the hands of the few in our country which happen to be white. I do know that white supremacy is with us even to the extent that it is psychological.
But the question I have is what are we trying to achieve and how realistic is it?
The fact that everybody has become an expert on race issues is rather interesting or maybe I need to find other people to follow on social media who look at things differently. At the risk of being called a white apologist, I think it is not right for the majority (blacks) to still be so obsessed with the minority (whites) to the extent that we all ignore everything else to focus on less than five people who made racial comments. It takes one white retard to get blacks with smart phones to rant.
Here is the reality, blacks (ANC) are running the state, which means they could have done anything they wanted to do to sort out issues that were cause by apartheid, absolutely anything. Why have we not done it? How do we expect those that pushed us down to be the ones to pull us up?
I think we need to build our country, and here is how I think we can do it.
- Determine the kind of country we want to live in
- determine how to get there
- and just do it.
The economy will probably be the driver of all this, but until we sit together as “South Africans” it will just get worse.
Ours is a cursed nation.
Twitter/ Facebook is not South Africa there is a lot of people who would not give a flying fuck what the few with access to Data have to say about the country and its issues.
Let’s build something, anything, let’s just build something…….
I have since this post been involved in discussions about the racism topic and it has really taken centre stage to the extent that it has been discussed in parliament lately. While the economy is not becoming better, issues like racism remain what we talk about everyday.
