What infuriates me is that not a single white person has had their land taken without compensation by our democratic government. In thirty years. But millions off black South Africans lost theirs to the aparthied government, including my family, a wrong that has never been fully addressed. Many white people got to keep the land that was taken during forced removals in the sixties (never mind the earlier land grabs) and yet some still complain and make themselves the victims. It's like we're living in the upside down.
What you're demanding is apartheid and elevated status. You're not a nation, you're a population group in SA and, as such, you're in it with rest of us. Like it or lump it or sod off to America.
We need to find a solution for South Africa and the Afrikaner people that would not imply dissolving the Afrikaners as a nation or destroying the country for those who aren't leaving. We need a solution in South Africa. A more sustainable dispensation based on self-governance.
@JHBWater No water in Bellevue and Yeoville. The system was throttled for the second time this week last night and was supposed to come on at 5:00 this morning. Nearly 3 hours later still no water.
@RyanCoetzee Whites are the colonizing population in SA. That is simply a matter of fact and we should act accordingly. Does not mean SA doesn't belong to all.
@SecRubio@POTUS You're easily fooled. We have no genocide, no land grabs and no racial discrimination in SA. These are a bunch of people who reject equality and want special status and treatment.
๐ฟ๐ฆ President Cyril Ramaphosa responds:
Those people who are being enticed to go to the United States do not fit the definition of a refugee. They are not being persecuted or treated badly โ they are leaving because they donโt want to embrace the changes taking place in our country in accordance with our Constitution. We were well taught by Nelson Mandela and Oliver Tambo on how to build a united nation. South Africa belongs to all who live in it, and no one is being driven out.
