I think you can just make sweeping statements like that. Whites in this country have never been oppressed like the blacks, Indians etc. So obviously you would expect them to get more offended given the context, especially with a country like ours with such a horrific history.
You would be kidding yourself if you think people can just forget what they experienced under Apartheid and just act as if it didn't happen.
I'm not going to go into the whole youth that didn't experience Apartheid debate but lets be honest there are still people who are racist and most of the time the call outs seem legitimate. Just because you or I don't get offended it doesn't mean that everyone else needs to abide by that. Also all races in this country use the race card. Visit the news24 comment section if you honestly believe white people don't through out the race card.
You really have to have a very good definition of what oppression is to believe the nonsense you just said.
