Eugene Terblanche the "prophet" (and racist)

Apartheid was a pretty good deal for white people - now it's over it they want to take all their gains and go off somewhere without having to deal with the consequences of screwing over the majority of the country for 40 years.

I thought what they took was the land, that is going to be returned now. Are you saying that they bought something else to this country?

What are you implying they are taking to "somewhere". Their knowledge?
 
Everyone here should know that Eugene Terblanche had some pretty extreme, far right views. While I am not an avid supporter of his (I was too young at the time), I can't help but watch this video and come to realise that almost all of his points are valid.

How is it that someone who died over a decade ago, could foresee the current economic/cultural/etc problems we are now facing in South Africa in 2018??

Almost every white South African foresaw a gloomy future for a black-led SA, what's so special or prophetic about Eugene?
 
So how come they didn't go it alone when they where in charge and had the ability to make it happen? Apartheid was a pretty good deal for white people - now it's over it they want to take all their gains and go off somewhere without having to deal with the consequences of screwing over the majority of the country for 40 years.
Huh. You are confused. They wanted a small homeland of their own somewhere outside Ventersdorp. How does that calculate to "all their gains"

Typical English person to put that 40 year time stamp on it. Lol

I think you may have missed his point somewhat, King Koos.

I wasn't responsible for Apartheid. It therefore isn't my responsibility to fix the fsck up.

It also isn't my responsibility to fix the fsck up of poor governance over the last 25 odd years. That certainly can't be laid at the feet of the Apartheid boogeyman.

So what if we want to take our gains? We built it ffs it's ours and look what's happening to it look at the carnige that you see around you.

Its our shared responsibility.

How did anyone else NOT foresee this? Did everyone else think its going to be sunshine and rainbows.
 
Why?

I didn't cause it.

How can I bear responsibility for something I had no say in or power over?

I'll take responsibility for my actions and my actions alone, not the actions of other people.

Its our shared responsibility as citizens of our country yes we are responsible for our own actions but hopefully we can also be responsible citizens. It is easy to blame apartheid its easy to say it wasn't your fault but the facts is we are born here we are stuck with trying to make things better.

We could also recognise that inflicting negative consequences on someone for an event over which they had no power is fundamentally unfair... then we could emigrate. Which is what a lot of people are choosing to do.

I think perhaps it isn't so much a case of "now it's over it they want to take all their gains and go off somewhere without having to deal with the consequences of screwing over the majority of the country for 40 years" but instead that those white people alive today who had nothing to do with Apartheid don't want to bear the negative consequences.

Do you feel as though they should bear the consequences of their fathers?

I don't think anyone should be judged on the sins of their fathers.

If you had no say in Apartheid you shouldn't be forced to bear the negative consequences of it today through things like racial discrimination or land seizures.
 
Sorted



Yes I'm also not religious. Sooooo nothing then? No one in the past perhaps too look up to or anybody to reference when saying hey once upon a time we had a change of surviving?
Those two events.. Over and above him being a racist of epic proportions should be enough...

There are many people in history to look up to but they need to be judged on their time and not today's.
