No racial slur is integral to the functioning of society

2018-08-22 07:54:38 UTC  

all civilised people will agree with you .. no racial slurs are necessary...

2018-08-22 07:55:52 UTC  

But neither are

2018-08-22 07:56:19 UTC  

This is exactly the narrative that the BLF and EFF love .... White racism and white people want to talk about black racism....

2018-08-22 07:56:34 UTC  

I'd rather challenge them on their ideas

2018-08-22 07:56:42 UTC  

"Ok so you've taken the land and driven white people into the sea - now what?"

2018-08-22 07:56:42 UTC  

then it is mislabelled as defense of white racism

2018-08-22 07:57:20 UTC  

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

2018-08-22 07:57:32 UTC  

But Ya .. youre right... the kword is causing all of this mess

2018-08-22 07:57:35 UTC  

All real problems, none of them helped by white people continuing to use the k-word

2018-08-22 07:57:49 UTC  

Why is it so important to you that you're allowed to say it @Rox ?

2018-08-22 07:58:37 UTC  

@Rox you have totally missed my point

2018-08-22 07:58:46 UTC  

either deliberately, or because you really don't see it

2018-08-22 07:59:07 UTC  

@lambdalizard 🌈🐲 You are allowed to say it. 😉

2018-08-22 07:59:14 UTC  

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

2018-08-22 07:59:27 UTC  

From their point of view, whites still have everything *and* continue to use racial slurs

2018-08-22 07:59:34 UTC  

I'd be mad, myself, if the situation were reversed

2018-08-22 08:00:16 UTC  

It's even more maddening, I'm sure, that there's no word they can come up with for "white people" that's degrading

2018-08-22 08:00:24 UTC  

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...

2018-08-22 08:01:06 UTC  

My point is... until this is addressed on BOTH sides... this will continue

2018-08-22 08:01:22 UTC  

And white people can address it right the fuck now by deciding to be conscious of the words they use

2018-08-22 08:01:25 UTC  

Or just one word in particular

2018-08-22 08:01:44 UTC  

It's not going to solve everything, but it *is* a step in the right direction. One that should have been taken decades ago.

2018-08-22 08:02:47 UTC  

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...

2018-08-22 08:03:10 UTC  

and nothing is said

2018-08-22 08:03:29 UTC  

Really? 😂

2018-08-22 08:03:41 UTC  

We're literally on a discord right now that exists because of that

2018-08-22 08:04:32 UTC  

I dont see it making headlines the way adam, penny sparrow, vicky momberg does...
I dont see it trending

2018-08-22 08:04:49 UTC  

One law for all...

2018-08-22 08:05:10 UTC  

Less than 20% of the country is on Twitter, and less than 5% are active

2018-08-22 08:05:18 UTC  

Don't take twitter trends as a reflection of what's actually happening

2018-08-22 08:05:32 UTC  

The media machine loves sensationalist topics, they drive attention and sell ads

2018-08-22 08:05:32 UTC  

Media ... not just twitter

2018-08-22 08:05:54 UTC  

but why only the white racist ?

2018-08-22 08:06:13 UTC  

this video was posted on social media

2018-08-22 08:06:24 UTC  

If there were no white racists, there would be nothing to report

2018-08-22 08:06:31 UTC  

where there is far worse and far more often DAILY

2018-08-22 08:06:33 UTC  

Yes, the game is unfair. Complaining about it won't change that fact.

2018-08-22 08:06:57 UTC  

Ummm.. actually historically things only changed when people complained and said enough

2018-08-22 08:07:23 UTC  

Consider the context though

2018-08-22 08:07:43 UTC  

They're not wrong when they point out that white people are 8% of the population but are disproportionately wealthy, better-educated, and have more opportunities
