Charlize Theron reflects on growing up in apartheid South Africa

[spiff]

who the fark is charlize?

Its an interesting thought exercise.

Let's say that a white man hooks up with a black woman today. They have a child. That child then has children with a black person. The grandchildren then hook up with black people.

The white genes from the great grandfather will be all but invisible at this point, but the children will still be "privileged".

He has the magic white blood in him, cursed to privilege for all eternity.

ffs, I was willing to overlook the fact that she's kommin white trash from benoni, because she's kinda hot and worth a bang

but if she blabs about white privilege we're gonna need a ball-gag

At this point I'd be too scared of catching her crazy of getting randomly stabbed to try and bang her........ Same for Miley Cyrus.

Miley never appealed to my taste anyway, so all safe there.

For Charlize perhaps add the full gimp suit to the ball-gag then to prevent stabbing.

Unless people are of the opinion that in apartheid SA people classified as White did not have more privilege?

You call it privilege, I call it:
"Fok0ff, en los my uit, ek't goed omte doen..."

The old system wasn't based on subjugation/slavery, no matter what anyone says, it was based on segregation... it was the stark contrast between the races/cultures and the absolute tsunami of envy and desire from the black population to "have what the whites have" that makes it look like "privilege"... and it was a "privilege" that was fought for, worked for and constructed quite literally by blood, sweat and tears.

I sometimes wonder if people actually think electricity and internet are self-replacing natural resources......

Sure thing.

You keep on believing that.
Everybody is entitled to their beliefs so matter how preposterous and I'll informed.

Now...best you get back to your goed om the doen..I really dont want to keep you

 

[rambo919]

Sure thing.

You keep on believing that.

I remember something a while back about most sa blacks not being educated enough to understand reality, how they see university degrees as "white man magic" as long as you get one you are automatically wealthy, they don't understand that you also have to put in actual work after the fact..... with this view on life they see white prosperity as a privilege, superior magic basically.

 

[Vrotappel]

You folks do realize she was speaking in the past tense right?

"South African actress Charlize Theron recently spoke about growing up during apartheid in South Africa and how, as a white person, she benefited from the system."

Essentially what she said is true. Unless people are of the opinion that in apartheid SA people classified as White did not have more privilege?

So confusing when people go against, and get all riled up about obvious facts. It's hilarious.

Personally, I can't stand the creature, but just because she said it doesn't make it untrue.

The boats were full of privilege. Now the tenders come with privilege.

What makes movie stars think their opinions matter?
Their job is to pretend to be other people and entertain us....

She was having a discussion at an event someone reported on it could have died or be ignored but Hope decided he was triggered enough to make a thread about it ( unnecessary) and here we all are having our own opinions. So does her opinion matter? Obviously to someone that thought it was newsworthy to post in N&CA.

 

[Vrotappel]

As if Charlize was going to say anything else. Imagine the outcry.

uuurrgghhh, tsek! loep!

Brakpan is a weird place for a chesire cuant to come from.

Now...best you get back to you goed om the doen

Busy with that as we speak.

Once I get out of this "democratic" begging-bowl-in-waiting I'll be sure to spread my 38 years of learned experience to warn those privileged snow-chimps across the pond on what they're getting themselves into when they keep pleading to open the flood gates.

My only problem is:
Do I want some or that sweet snowy Canadian-with-cheap-US-import-border privilege or the good 'ol Aussie hot-weather-beautiful-beaches privilege, some New-Zealand-green-landscape privilege?
Isolated-island-with-clean-air Mauritian privilege looks awesome, a bit more mixed-race for my tastes and I keep hearing that multi-cultured is the way to go, as in, lots of privileges... we'll see...

What I can tell you is that there's no western country where "white privilege" is even remotely a parameter.
It simply doesn't exist.
The fact that on average white people do better than most other races is your problem, not mine.

I bet you have zero clue behind those 38 years of yours exactly what the actual fark you're ranting on about right now?
Go on though, it's hilarious. I bet there's a boatload of more incoherent garbage in your head you'd like to get out.

38 years of learned (underlined) experience in what? The conversation this thread is about? How impactful life under Apartheid was for some and not so much for others?

My suggestion to you is, considering you would have been all of roughly 13 years at the death of the Apartheid era, brush up on your history. Watch a documentary. Read a book. Visit a museum. Expand your learned experience a tad more. Because I assure you, without a doubt, you are not as learned as you may believe.

In all honesty, your ignorance is astounding though not unexpected at all. I'd find it quite funny were it not quite so pathetic.

Hope all that goed om te doen is going well though.

Read beyond the first page of Google , and if you think the Apartheid museum is fair reflection , then you are in need of more experience
