@khayadlanga They think time will make us forget the facts, we are never going to do that, no matter how much tgey would like us to

This statement is not just historically illiterate, it’s morally bankrupt and lacks any empathy nor understanding. Apartheid was not mere discomfort, because this is what you’re equating it to. It was not just hurt feelings. It was “losing a job opportunity”. It was systemic, brutal dehumanisation written into law and enforced with the utmost brutality. Let’s go through some facts to remind you what actual persecution looks like even though I still know for a fact you will find a way to deny these: The architect of apartheid, Hendrik Verwoerd, said: “What is the use of teaching the Bantu child mathematics when it cannot use it in practice?” That was not some throwaway remark. That was the Bantu Education Act in action. It was an entire schooling system designed to keep Black South Africans subservient and economically crippled. Something that has ripple effects to this very day. Let’s talk about Sharpeville: 69 unarmed Black protestors shot in the back by police. Let’s talk about the Soweto Uprising: Children killed by the state for protesting being forced to learn in Afrikaans. (Where is the Camps Bay uprising where kids were being forced to learn isiXhosa?) Let’s talk about forced removals: Over 3.5 million people evicted from their homes because their skin wasn’t the right colour for the area. Let’s talk about the Pass Laws: A criminal offence to exist in your own country without a permit, your freedom determined by a piece of paper Let’s talk about voting rights: A white minority dictating the lives of the Black majority who weren’t even allowed to choose their leaders. Let’s talk about land ownership: Black people were legally barred from owning land in 87% of the country. Let’s talk about legally sanctioned torture and murder: Activists beaten, tortured, hanged, or made to disappear. My grandfather was one of them, tortured until he suffered a stroke and died. No trial. Under apartheid, Black South Africans were not second-class citizens. We were not citizens at all. We were an inconvenience to be moved, controlled or eliminated. Let’s contrast that with what you call “persecution” today: policies that seek to correct generations of deliberate exclusion. Efforts to broaden access to education, opportunity, and land not to harm you, but to repair what was broken. You confuse equality with persecution because you’ve never had to live without privilege. You call transformation oppression because the playing field is finally being levelled and even that feels unbearable to you. What you are calling “persecution” is people finally getting a seat at a table that was built on top of them. If fairness feels like persecution to you, it says more about your comfort with injustice than it does about transformation.

@3point4km I agree with everything you wrote 😭😭😭😭

Here is a look at some of the things I did like about #WheelOfTime: 1. Blood Snow: that was an amazing off book moment brought to the screen, the fight choreography was outstanding #TwitterOfTime contd...

@movieweb We're heart broken 😩😩😩

To say that fans are disappointed would be an understatement. Full story 👉️ bit.ly/4kvdaBC #TheWheelOfTime

@miShumoZA_ Ba tswa kae? 😭👀

Apparently there are people who eat these😳

@evsvfx @netflix please pick up this how, it's a goldmine!!! #SaveWOT

#SaveWOT there is no way! someone pick this show up right now!

@KokiiKay Same!!

I wasn’t comfortable with the way John Steenhuisen addressed the EFF and MK party.

@PortiaMoemedi @kaMalambule 😂😂😂I support!

@kaMalambule Yes but just because they are doing it, it doesn’t mean it’s okay. I’m wearing a red gown at my next graduation then

So everyone wears mogagolwane now? Especially the white one? Even if you’re not marrying into the Batswana/Bapedi tribe? I’m seeing “Becoming Mrs Khumalo” but even the bride is not Tswana/Pedi. I’m very confuse. Even in the Batswana group not everyone wear the white one. Some wear the blue, some the brown and some the white. Depending on your “clan” group.

The cast, production, script... EVERYTHING was incredibly good!!! I binged both seasons in 2 days, don't know what took me so long! #unseennetflix #ProudlySouthAfrican

@Nomzeth Just finished that episode, Tony is pure entertainment, give him more shows! 🙆🏿‍♀️😂😂😂😂

Gabi voting for Tony, her being eliminated and Tony crying when she exits is pure comedy… 😂😂😂 #BattleCampNetflix

@kalliekriel @realDonaldTrump 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

ANC leaders and the ANC-led government must be held directly responsible for the fact that the United States and President @realDonaldTrump has punished South Africa by imposing significantly higher import tariffs on the country than on most other nations. South Africa and its people are now reaping the bitter fruits of the ANC leadership’s reckless policies and provocative actions toward the United States. These ANC leaders have placed their own and their party’s ideology and interests above those of the people of South Africa. Efforts to prevent the country and its people from being punished by advocating for a change in direction in South Africa were undermined by those who dismissed the United States’ grievances as a misunderstanding based on “misinformation.” Consequently, these denialists must also bear responsibility for the current crisis. To have avoided these punative measures, it was necessary to openly identify the problems and find solutions through a change in direction in South Africa. @afriforum will therefore continue to work toward such a change, as it is the only way the United States’ punative measures can be lifted. This change in direction requires that South Africa protect the property and human rights of all its people (including Afrikaners and other minority communities) and that the interests of South Africans be prioritized by ensuring the country follows a truly neutral foreign policy. businesstech.co.za/news/trending/…
