Dis-Chem not allowed to hire anymore white people for now

[Gyre]

Your "condition" real, or you just pretending.

Where did I justify it? Very simple question.

Segregation was implemented because the NP government knew people of different racial origins could not live together in equality and harmony, as we see today...

That's pure nonsense. And if it is the naturally tendency of people there would have been no need to have laws to enforce it. The malevolence however is clear in where they forced some groups to live.

Segregation was NOT implemented to oppress black people.

Sure it wasn't.

It did not work out as intended, but the NP government can not take all the blame for this.

They can take the blame for all the damage they caused. I could concede that way back they may have genuinely believed the tripe they were peddling. There was a time when people could be forgiven for still believing that education was wasted on anyone who wasn't white. But frankly anyone still trying to sell that rubbish by the mid-70s was either not playing with a full deck or malevolent. They could have started to turn it around by pouring money into education and removing all the other restrictions, but they didn't. As far as I can see they actually tried to dig in their heels in the 80s.

It's hard today to even comprehend what the National Party thought was ultimately going to happen. Did they think they could keep black people as uneducated cheap labour forever? What the hell was their ultimate exit plan? Perhaps they thought the cold war would go on forever and thus the US would keep supporting them and every other oppressive regime that declared themselves anti-communist.

Get rid of the criminals and the ANC enablers, might as well remove the whole ANC.

Any party that comes after the ANC is going to address BEE/AA in the same approach, just more efficiently and with less corruption.

But all the money destined for redress has already been taken from the pale scales, then stolen. Who pays for round two of an already failed experiment?

Might as well give up on everything, why bother trying to run a country any more?

 

[Vrotappel]

That's like the ANC ending loadshedding and wanting to be applauded for it, or is it different?

Someone thinks the ANC can end load shedding.

Not just Dis-Chem has these issues

RAF 'pauses job offers for white men' to meet 'impossible' diversity targets

The alleged move has prompted the head of recruitment for the Royal Air Force (RAF) - herself a senior female officer - to resign in recent days in protest.

news.sky.com

(Almost) Exact same arguments against it being made though -

A spokesperson for the Sunak leadership campaign said: "The only thing that should matter in recruitment is the content of your character, not your sex or the colour of your skin. That the Ministry of Defence would allow Britain's security to potentially be put at risk by a drive for so-called 'diversity' is not only disgraceful, it is dangerous."

In SA, they do force "diversity" to the detriment of the country ... SA always the opposite of logic.

Got my black disprin's from Dischem today, so happy.

 

[Oldfut]

Yeah he looks like he just barely escaped the gas chamber.

Very ironic that he should be the kapo carrying out racist government orders. Maybe in the genes although at least those kapos did it to try and save their own lives, not just rake in a few more shekels.

 

[Herr der Verboten]

Don't believe the hype, no elections ever took place there, the leaders were chosen by the national party and they were allowed to reign Supreme until there was a coup or their masters got tired of them and wanted to put someone else in charge. There is a very good reason why no one was ever voted out.

Eskom board approved...

You forgot to use the "sarcasm font".
Some people might otherwise not spot the obvious sarcasm

Wow I read that anticipating he was going to build up to some greater point than just, white guilt.
Lol, pathetic.

Love this award.

And shame man... his white guilt is HEAVY. Love how they always just one side.. nothing about current government's corruption that causes more issues for everyone today... not the past.

Just for context for all the bootlickers that claim that Dischem has no choice:

Raymond Ackerman was one of the first retailers to fight on behalf of the South African consumers against the apartheid state’s monopoly on basic goods. He drastically reduced the cost of essentials such as bread, milk and chicken. Ackerman also spoke against the inclusion of value-added tax (VAT) on basic food lines, a course that they fought and won on behalf of the poor.

...

Ackerman was one of the first executives to promote black South Africans to senior positions and to acknowledge black trade unions. This was at the period when such unions were banned from operating in this country. He also abolished race classification on the company’s human resources payroll. He always appointed the right person to the position regardless of skin colour.

Ackerman fought constantly against the Group Areas Act, stating that it was unjust, unfair and inhumane. He issued housing loans to staff as government refused to grant housing loans to black South Africans during apartheid. He implemented educational grants to staff and their children to encourage tertiary education at major universities, at a time when equal education for all did not exist.

When the letter first came out I thought it was either fake or written by a retard. I should've googled Ivan Saltzman and would've seen it was the latter.

All the commie snowflakes who are going to come at me for using the "r" word can f off to Dischem.

This guy is a dollar billionaire an here I am debating if I should boycott Dischem or give in buy that 3 for 2 sunscreen special.

Lovely testimonial, I just noticed it's from the ANC, when is it the truth and when is it propaganda? Just asking.

If you are still debating it at this point, just buy the special.

It is the same dilemma most people have with China. They don't really like China, wish we had more local manufacturing, but they like cheap junk even more.

Were do you get the most value. A small monetary saving. Or actually having principles.

Well it isn't from the ANC, it is from the presidency. If you tell an ANC goon that the best person should get the job regardless of their skin colour, they will shriek like a vegan who has discovered that their pumpkin spice latte had cows milk in it.


But since you insist.

In those difficult days, Ackerman met politicians. He vividly remembers a talk with Prime Minister, B.J. Vorster, who was in power when black students took to the streets and were mowed down in Soweto in 1976. It was on Vorster’s watch that more opponents of the apartheid regime were detained in a climate of racial conflict.
“It was quite an amazing thing, we wanted to promote black managers but it was against the Group Areas Act, [the legislation that apportioned land by race]. I went to see him [Vorster] and said we are doing it. He said, ‘I know you are doing it, and it’s against the law’. I said, ‘here are letters from ministers’ wives saying how courteous this or that manager is’. I showed him these letters that my wife had prepared. He turned around–I won’t forget that day–and said, ‘Mr. Ackerman, go ahead, even if you are breaking the law I won’t arrest you’. I asked, ‘do I have your word ? Can I have it in writing?’ He said, ‘go ahead, I won’t arrest you’. I said, ‘give it to me in writing’ and he said, ‘I won’t but you must do it’.”
In 1980, Ackerman went to see Vorster’s successor, P.W. Botha, a very stubborn man–who was called ‘Die Groot Krokodil’”, Afrikaans for ‘the big crocodile’, who oversaw the most violent years of apartheid rule. Ackerman wanted to discuss several issues, including a housing scheme he was contemplating for his black managers: “I asked him why we can’t have houses for blacks? Why not have a 99-year lease like they have in Sweden and Finland. He called in one of his ministers. I think it was Connie Mulder. After about a week of discussions, Botha came up with a 99-year-lease-hold, which was later changed to full ownership.”
