Not sure what you on about , can sort of agree that yes there is no reverse racism , racism is racism but when it comes to apartheid and being reverse apartheid...

When whites made their apartheid policies they made them with the intention to exclude blacks , we called that apartheid.

Now blacks have made their policies with the intention to exclude whites.

The idea is to reverse the injustices of the past and by doing so they are creating new injustices , Hence the term reverse apartheid , because all they have done is reverse the effects of apartheid.
I guess I can see the point you're making. I just see it as policies set by one race to the exclusion of others.

Identity politics exists because of the lack of God. :whistling:

When there is one Creator things become a lot more simple.

What a load of bull. SA is overwhelmingly Christian and the vast majority are very religious, but we're in the situation we're in.

"lack of God" :laugh:

Funny, isn't it. It's almost like there is something (hint: the State) suppressing our spirit.

Obvious us "whitey" folks should just accept we aren't part of the financial inclusion aside from being employed in a job

Not even a piece of cardboard burned at my employer. Furthermore, I've never seen/heard of damage to property at my ex employer. Both these places are majority Numsa members. The damage to property is a recent phenomenon that doesn't happen often in the private sector.
Nonsense. I worked in Jhb CBD in the early 1990's. 1066 building, corner Pritchard & Harrison. Cosatu marches used to come down Harrison. Street vendors were looted, parked vehicles were trashed. EVERY SINGLE TIME. 1990 is hardly recent.

Sasol says it's ready for Solidarity’s ‘clever strike’
Sasol [JSE:SOL] says it has contingency plans in place for the strike arranged by trade union Solidarity over the exclusion of white employees from Sasol's new Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment share scheme. According to a statement issued by the energy and chemical company on Monday, it received a notification of the strike, which commenced today. “We have activated contingency measures to minimise potential disruption to our operations,” Sasol said in the statement.

The strike could potentially last for three weeks, according to Solidarity’s chief executive Dirk Hermann who spoke to Fin24 by phone on Monday afternoon. Hermann said that Solidarity, which represents 6 300 workers at Sasol, is implementing the strike in a “staggered approach” and likened it to a military operation. Workers will slowly withdraw labour from each unit. Solidarity will hand over a memorandum to Sasol on Wednesday and implement a full blown strike on Thursday when all Solidarity members will stay away.

Hermann called it a “clever strike” as it will affect Sasol’s shutdown process. Sasol shuts down operations as part of an annual maintenance plan and then restarts the plants. Hermann explained that the Solidarity members know “exactly where” the next shutdown will be and will withdraw their labour - skills and knowledge - needed for the process, effectively delaying the shutdown.

This isn't BEE. This is extra remuneration for only black employees.
