Have you ever heard black politicians and their supporters ask why minorities own such huge enterprises?
It's unfortunate that no one asks why the black majority hasn't produced huge enterprises, that should be the real question.
Black people are told their wealth was taken by imperialists, the West, and the CIA, as if they're waiting for it to be returned, along with reparations for slavery.
Meanwhile, all other races are told the harsh economic reality: that wealth is built through toil, starting from scratch, until they eventually build massive business empires.
The colonizers left decades ago, the excuses should have left with them.
Africa doesn't need reparations to become rich. It needs builders.
Every empire in history was built by someone who stopped asking who owes them, and started asking what they could create.
@nokwandamhlong0 Context is important. Are they in a relationship? Is he living with Junior and is he a step parent to Junior?
Or are seperated and his only obligation is to his son?
We shouldnt normalize expectations from people who owe us nothing.
@Clssf1@ForilTogo@magicdan60 The perception that all black people are corrupt. All black people are stupid and all black people are incompetent.
These views are evident in social media playform and discussion forums, and they are unfortunately what continue to drive the masses to voting for the useless ANC
@Clssf1@ForilTogo@magicdan60 Being critical of Colonialism and Apartheid doesnt necessarily equal endorsement and support of the ANC. The problem with most white people is that they dont see the problems this country faces as ANC failuire in their eyes the problem is any black person in government.
@Clssf1@ForilTogo@magicdan60 That ordinary house in Stilfontein is beyond what the vast majority of black South Africans could ever dream of.
And the problem is not that he lives there, its understanding the historical injustices that excluded the majority from defining that as simple.
@Clssf1@ForilTogo@magicdan60 Beneficiaries of Apartheid came in different levels and forms. But make no mistake every white person benefited in some shape or form. The problem with you and others like you is that you fail to understand basic economic and historical concepts
@emsuncleronnie@malik_jack99108 A whitemans thirst for violence and bloodshed is not restricted to singular isolated acts, they require scale and casualties in the thousands. And if you think this assertion is false then perhaps take a look at the splendour of white people at Trump and Bibi bomb and kill
@emsuncleronnie@malik_jack99108 The thing with white violence is that its always dressed up in fancy words and justifications that make it seem appropriate to bomb and kill 180 school kids and bomb schools and clinics or deprive an entire nation of energy and supplies.
@emsuncleronnie@malik_jack99108 We dont actually have to go to history in search of white violence. We just need to look at Venezuela, Cuba, Iran, Gaza, Lebonon. Between Trump and Netenyahu and their white supporters no black person comes close to the amount violence they bring to societies en masse
@Randall83David@RiseAgainstEvil@CyrilRamaphosa@GovernmentZA@POTUS It was the most beautiful country in Africa when Apartheid and black oppression was in full force 😂 the beauty of oppresing the majority in this country will never come back might as well hope over to Trumps America
@RevoGangSta777 Your recollection of Apartheid is clearly beautified by whatever nonsense you consume consume on social media.
People were being arrested for the color of their skin, killed by whites without consequence.
Let us call out the ANC for its failures but dare not glorify apartheid
One year ago today, I watched in complete disbelief as @POTUS confronted Cyril Ramaphosa right here in the White House Oval Office.
I never expected what happened next. I, and many of us, never saw it coming, but it was glorious. A moment etched into each one of us forever. President Trump pulled off the greatest exposé I have ever seen. He dimmed the lights, played the videos of “Kill the Boer, Kill the Farmer” chants, flipped through the reports of death after death, and laid bare the brutal reality of what White farmers in South Africa are facing every single day.
I was shocked to my core. Shocked that a sitting US President would stand up so boldly for us when so many others look away or deny the truth. But more than that, I am deeply grateful. Deeply grateful that President Trump refused to fall for Cyril’s lies and empty denials. Cyril came armed with his White delegation; Steenhuisen, Ernie Els, and Johan Rupert, thinking they could back him up and smooth things over. It didn’t work.
And a special well done to Retief Goosen for his bravery in speaking out about the real challenges White farmers endure; the fear, the attacks, the fences, the murdered friends and family. That took real courage in that room.
That moment breathed new life into White South Africans who have felt abandoned and alone for far too long. For decades we have been gaslit by our own government, ignored by the international community, and left to face the farm murders and expropriation threats in silence. President Trump’s stand shattered that isolation. It reminded us that we are not forgotten, that the truth about the targeting of White farmers can still break through the lies, and that real leadership can put the spotlight exactly where it belongs. It gave us renewed hope, renewed determination, and the strength to keep going.
Thank you, President Trump. You stood for us when our own government wouldn’t. We will never, ever forget it. 🙏 🇺🇸 We will never, ever forget YOU.
@stats_wire Actually ANC had build such roads, ANC built universities, and much of the road infrastructure that you see the ANC government built, but they could have done more if they hadn't lost focus.
