"They raped so now I can rape"
Is that the hill you're going to die on?
The entire point is to be a *better* person. To lead by example
@lambdalizard 🌈🐲 This is true, when you teach kids, you have to be the example
Yup
And it's not like you're giving anything up
It's not like refusing to say/tolerate the k-word means you give up the right to vote, or own property
No racial slur is integral to the functioning of society
all civilised people will agree with you .. no racial slurs are necessary...
But neither are
This is exactly the narrative that the BLF and EFF love .... White racism and white people want to talk about black racism....
I'd rather challenge them on their ideas
"Ok so you've taken the land and driven white people into the sea - now what?"
then it is mislabelled as defense of white racism
EWC
exclusion from the workplace due to the color of your skin
Brutal farm murders - slapped down when you protest publicly
leaders calling for our slaughter
wanton destruction of buses trains schools etc
economic destruction of SA
But Ya .. youre right... the kword is causing all of this mess
All real problems, none of them helped by white people continuing to use the k-word
Why is it so important to you that you're allowed to say it @Rox ?
either deliberately, or because you really don't see it
Bear the history in mind too. The Zulus lost the Anglo-Zulu war, were then systematically removed from their land, forced into menial labor with poor education, and were then liberated by the ANC - a party that has no ideas and no plan, and has just made things worse over the last 25 years
From their point of view, whites still have everything *and* continue to use racial slurs
I'd be mad, myself, if the situation were reversed
It's even more maddening, I'm sure, that there's no word they can come up with for "white people" that's degrading
Read up.. I dont say it... and dont condone it.. or people who do
But in the grand scheme of things i doubt that is the REAL problem here..
Racism exists against whites too ... beyond just feeling offended... some of which is actual legislation...
Causing white people to flee from this country...
My point is... until this is addressed on BOTH sides... this will continue
And white people can address it right the fuck now by deciding to be conscious of the words they use
Or just one word in particular
It's not going to solve everything, but it *is* a step in the right direction. One that should have been taken decades ago.
I think it wass taken decades ago which is why there is a huge outcry when it is used..
and realistically there is only an outcry once a year or so ... as it is not a commonplace thing..
Where as the other racism is daily and considered normal...
and nothing is said
Really? 😂
We're literally on a discord right now that exists because of that
I dont see it making headlines the way adam, penny sparrow, vicky momberg does...
I dont see it trending
One law for all...
Less than 20% of the country is on Twitter, and less than 5% are active
Don't take twitter trends as a reflection of what's actually happening
The media machine loves sensationalist topics, they drive attention and sell ads
Media ... not just twitter
but why only the white racist ?
