The pathetically stupid things people will argue with....

No one has yet explained to me why state lines even matter in a supposedly united country.

Is this the wild west or something?
I see the people on reddit say they can cross 3 states lines in 10min drive lol! So "he crossed statelines" is 0.

So in SA we now have black privilage?
I think that would be a fair assessment. lol However SA absolutely shyte the bed in this regard, you don't exactly acquire wealth and equality overnight, their attempt to try and do it in a short period of time, has been a complete clusterfk.Don't have a problem with doing it, have a problem how they went about it, especially if you systematically destroy.There is still a tremendous amount of hatred with regards to apartheid, older generation has made peace with it sort of.The problem comes in form of the younger generation.

I was born after the great depression and 36 odd years after WWII, impact of that doesn't bother me in the least, as it wasnt part of my generation, the same is applicable to the post 1994 generation. I wonder a show of hands who has heard of the term black tax ?

I don't think you quite grasp the concept of what white privilege actually entails .To put it simple if you are part of a race that in any way or form hampered another's ability to build wealth or same opportunity, then you are privileged. Working hard has nothing to do with. Anyone can work hard, what matters is what you get in return for that work, and it isn't always equal nor fair.
Under that definition. Black people are privileged in South Africa.

Lol Iam actually crying inside, don't know why, as I died a long time ago.
Shame - you poor poor thing.
Hope you feel better soon.

Can't believe there is actually that many completely ignorant people in this thread.
You better believe it.
It has nothing to do whether you or your Aunty's left tone evolved from a pile of steaming shyte or a rock.Not sure which is worse, but considering human race, given the choice I would devolve into a primitive single cell life form.But that again would be considered privileged, compared to basic things like bacteria, or the original primordial soup that eventually created life.So yeah I would devolve into simple amino acids and proteins, then having to deal with your complete and utter ignorance.
But you are of course not ignorant.
Quick question was any of the natural resources mined or profits gained in good old ZAR shared with the indigenous inhabitants.? Another word to aptly describe it would be exploitation.
Are you serious, or sarcastic, or just plain stupid.
Are you perhaps saying that everyone should always share everything equally with everyone else?
All employees (workers) of all industries should earn the exact same pay, and own the exact same things, including all the owners?
If you fail to grasp the tongue in cheek sarcasm and joke.......then all hope is lost.
It would help if your posts were less ambiguous.
Perhaps that is enough internet for today....
Yeah - perhaps.

Well.. blacks has AA and BEE. I mean, what more would you want ? Just because of your skin colour you get pretence to a job and dealing with government tenders etc. Other companies (Banks) wants your business because of BEE score card.

*certain mybb posters enter chat
*now the chat has changed to BEE vs Apartheid and BEE/AA is not racism

If you are going to post stupid crap like this:

then cry you should.

And seriously bud, if you want to see ignorant then proofread your own posts. lol
It's next level ignorance.

But then as a commited progressive, you have no self awareness whatsover and whilst you will call others racist etc... you are not seeing that you are in fact being that very thing you accuse others of.

Anyone who doesn't know about black tax must live under a rock.

RE - was any of the natural resources mined or profits gained in good old ZAR shared with the indigenous inhabitants.?
That was not part of my post but, since you raised the subject........

The area of the good old ZAR was the area between the Vaal and Limpopo rivers and, when the boers moved there after their exit from the Cape, the area was largely depopulated due to the depredations of Mzilikazi who, on his own, exterminated twenty eight tribes quite apart from the efforts of other blood crazed chiefs like Mantatisi.

The wretched survivors were only too glad to accept the protection of the boers and neither group had a clue or care about what was under the ground they lived on; only later did foreigners flock in to mine what was underground and they invested heavily to extract and process the ore. Whatever was paid at the time was acceptable to all parties.

The result of this was that all the inhabitants of the good old ZAR ended up as canon fodder after the Jameson Raid and resultant war.

Back to the subject of price paid:
Trade, throughout history has consisted of buyers paying as little as possible and sellers demanding as much as possible and, whatever the agreement, both parties accept it. Often an item changes hands because a buyer sees that it has a greater value than the asking price and an artwork at a boot sale or fete had been sold for peanuts because the seller did not know that he had a piece by a great master - Buyer's good luck or expertise but he is not obliged to go back to the seller and increase his payment.

WTF is wrong with you. Just to be clear that was sarcasm ;). Can you point me were in history even now, especially in the usa were other races especially before slavery was abolished, that other races were afforded the same privileges, to own land and have had the ability to actually build wealth.?

I don't think you quite grasp the concept of what white privilege actually entails.To put it simple if you are part of a race that in any way or form hampered another's ability to build wealth or same opportunity, then you are privileged.

How does one get absolution for this original sin?
