@ConCaracal Would be interesting to pose similar questions to the countries largest law firms. It would be utterly shocking if they did not apply racial preference to their new candidate hires.
@bestofstarwar I’m a fan of debating a minor aesthetic change like this as opposed to having to debate whether the next star wars film will be woke slop or an actual film worth watching.
When the national socialists won power in Germany in 1933 among their first demands was for laws restricting the proportion of Jews in the professions - law and medicine - to that minority's (1%) share of the population. Something has gone very wrong with South Africa's moral universe that this same principle is being unashamedly invoked in 2026 in defence of the Legal Sector Code.
Doxxed for dissent
Approximately 1 year ago today, News24 doxxed an anonymous private citisen’s identity (Twatterbaas). They also revealed his business' name and location, his family's place of residence, the name of his wife, and even the names of his elderly parents and where they live.
His crime? Being a vocal critic of the South African government, getting @elonmusk's attention while spreading awareness about farm murders and race laws, and embarrassing the Ramaphosa regime internationally using facts.
The South African government was quick to respond (what a coincidence!), with the threat of investigations into regime critics for spreading "misinformation" (politically inconvenient facts).
In the aftermath, News24's target and his family received countless death threats, traumatic levels of harassment, and their business suffered immense damage. For the safety of his family, he has not returned to X.
The "exposé" backfired, with it being widely criticised and mocked on social media, in letters to newspapers, and by analysts and commentators. Many posted proof online of canceling their News24 subscriptions in protest.
In conclusion: Never forget what lengths regime-friendly media will stoop to to silence those who dare speak out about farm murders and criticise the government's racist policies.
(If you're reading this, I hope you and your loved ones are doing better, Twatterbaas.)
@SolidariDirk It’s no surprise Michael himself is so pro BEE. He is part of an elite white class that sold out the generation below them for corporate expediency.
@MichaelJordaan@elonmusk Don’t be silly, Michael. BEE is theft and Elon knows this. There are multiple claims made in that post which he could have been agreeing with. Your pandering to the black elites that provided for your success is coming to end.
@iamyesyouareno You know what came just after 1938 though right? Not a single person today would volunteer to live through that for reduced cost of living (for a short while).
@CapeIndy@CommonSense_ZA RE the university point: it turns out elite black people like free stuff. The poor don’t see any of it anyway, but why in the world would graduates want, for example, BEE done away with?
@elonmusk Why would they change though? They have systematically been advancing their race communism under the guise of “transformation”, but what incentive is there for them to stop?
