Virgin boss apologises for SA tweet

[The_Mowgs]

To be fair - if Oprah came and posed with black people only - the uproar would not exist. Just that we can be hypocrites at times - it's human nature

@Stephen do you see something wrong with this picture?

 

[Pitbull]

Nope, insignificant

Seems to grind your little balls that I'm white, and privileged. Doesn't phase me. I'm proud to be white and successful. I don't sit and watch series the whole day which probably leads to being overweight and have self esteem issues. But I guess you can blame your genes for that.

Doesn't affect me in the least ...

To be fair, in a country where 80% of the population is black and only 8% is white, it is a bit odd to have only white entrepreneurs in the picture. Your Oprah example is not so odd, given the population demographics.

Not out of the ordinary at all...

There is ZERO context to that picture. Maybe it's friend's of his, maybe they are investors... for all we know maybe they are all in a polygamist relationship. Who in their right mind will draw race into a single picture without context, when you can clearly see from the link above that you posted there were people of all colour...

Oprah's schools are for black girls only iirc, so not odd at all... Doesn't phase anyone.

The only person with self esteem issues is you, always whining and complaining about everything just go to Orania or the like where you dont have to deal with other types of people

You do realise the irony of your statement right. Or did you attend some Bantu education school and need me to point it out to you?

My education is fine, you might want to sue whoever taught you in the past, yikes. Read a few books if you can

Any girl from "disadvantaged background" afaik.

The salt... want some fries with that? You seem very worked up for someone with no self esteem issues. Did I touch you on your private place? Farking hilarious!!!

You're making a fool of yourself, but probably too daft to realise

So Black girls?

 

[ForceFate]

So Black girls?

No, ANY girl from disadvantaged background............
In other words, they have a means test of some sort to determine this.

 

[MEIOT]

That chick on the far left is colored surely? Not a total lack of diversity

 

[livw88]

Made me think of this classic Nandos ad

I say this again, So Black Girls?

Ok ok, maybe girls of Colour? but the point still stands.

In the SA definition of disadvantage it's people (races) who have been excluded by apartheid. No need to play funny gymnastics. That is the reality

Let's check pics from their website/events. Disadvantaged vs previously disadvantaged.

You right wingers are just as bad as that womans tweet - virtual signalling everywhere. Relax watch a Steve Hofmeyer video or something

When you're trying to remain relevant with the times, but you can't brain.
