[I happened to watch part of the excellent Afrikaans TV show, FOKUS today.

The portion I saw had to do with … racism… and the fact that despite 12 years of black majority rule… despite, Affirmative Action, despite BEE and other laws… somehow, the blacks feel there is “racism” all over S.Africa!

Freek Robinson as usual did an excellent job and asked the tough questions. They had some coloured professor from the Cape, whom I thought was an idiot, also carrying on about so-called racism.

Freek asked him what about RACISM between Blacks and Coloureds? And what of blacks who were attacking Somali refugees in the Cape? What of that? “No”, said the Coloured professor, we must not see racism in EVERYTHING!

Aha! So racism is only racism, when THEY SAY its racism? Or to be more accurate, its only racism when its whites versus blacks, but black versus anybody else never counts as racism!

All throughout this show however, with all this tremendous talk of racism permeating through S.African society, I was trying to figure out exactly WHERE this racism is that they were moaning about? They hinted darkly… that it might be in the workplace. Workplace? That’s where Affirmative Action controls the racial job quotas in the favour of blacks. Where’s the racism? Whites have lost their jobs, blacks are hired in place of whites? There’s anti-WHITE racism, yes, but I fail to see the anti-black racism.

On and on they all went, agreeing that there was racism all over the place, but I saw no indication of any hard examples of racism.

A most important useful idiot turned out to be an Afrikaner, Dr Leon Wessels. This flipping moron was in there going on and on about racism and how the Government must enact MORE laws and all of society must be mobilised to counter it… and on and bloody on… they all went.

I must tell you, apart from anti-White Racism, I am really hard-pressed to see any example, that even in one’s wildest, most exaggerated imagination could be called “racism” on a daily basis. In my job, or when I walk around town or go to shops, etc… I see blacks in jobs everywhere. I don’t see whites being nasty to blacks. I see everyone being pretty civil to one another. I see blacks getting chances to do anything whites can do. I actually see blacks being promoted beyond their level of competence. I see blacks being given chances to do work which they cleary aren’t capable of. But nowhere… do I see blacks being DENIED chances, opportunities or being discriminated against by whites or anyone else. I see Whites being denied promotion – yes I see that. But I see young, incompetant blacks being promoted over whites who are much more experienced and competant, and nobody says anything against that.

I just could not fathom where this coloured Professor fool and Dr Leon Wessels could “see” all this mythical racism.

What I also couldn’t understand was WHAT THE BLOODY HELL MORE THEY ACTUALLY THINK THIS GOVERNMENT AND EVERYONE ELSE SHOULD DO TO ROOT OUT ALL THIS IMAGINERY, MYTHICAL RACISM WHICH THEY SEE IN THEIR MIND’S EYE EVERYWHERE. Maybe there is racism in the air they breathe or something, because bugger me if I can see this “racism”. I see whites being driven out of their jobs, productive white farmers being driven off their land for the mere reason that they are white.

WHAT THE BLOODY HELL MORE DO THEY WANT?

I’m sitting here scratching my head. Honest to God… what are they talking about? Am I living in the same country as them? Or am I in a parallel universe?

I was remarking to my family, “You know, the ANC has been running this country for 12 years and STILL they’re talking about racism”.

But as I have said before, I saw this same pattern in Zimbabwe. Back in 1989, I was reading the monthly newsletter from the Rhodesia Association, and I saw that Mugabe was blaming Colonialism and whites. Then it hit me… he’s been ruling for 9 years and still he pulls out that dead horse and flogs it one more time. And that was the beginning of my realisation that its all a game. In fact, its the ONLY GAME the blacks have got. Its their only crutch. The only thing that gives meaning to their lives is to blame their problems ON SOMEONE ELSE!!

The ANC frankly, hasn’t got a leg to stand on. They’ve got the country. They control parliament, the laws and the Police. They have made rules up to their eyeballs to FORCE blacks into every part of business. They take the land – they pretty much do what the hell they please. AND YET, SOMEHOW THE WHITE MAN IS STILL SOME KIND OF EVIL BOIL ON THE BUTT OF SOCIETY. Somehow… I don’t know how… no matter what the white man does… something is still wrong. The white man goes about his daily life meekly bending to all these rules and yet, somehow, the white man is still the root of all this mythical evil.

As for Dr Leon Wessels. I don’t know where the hell he was coming from. He was agreeing with all this rubbish. To me it was as if everyone on that show had all agreed, secretly, to talk about something that did not exist… but between them, they were reinforcing the view that “something” was out there… Nobody could point to specifics about anything. It was all vague and highly mythical.

I listened to this rubbish and just shook my head.

As I predicted in Government by Deception, racism and Apartheid is all the ANC has. Racism is merely an excuse to steal from us and to co-opt us into agreeing that it would be GOOD if they would destroy us. Nothing more. Even if there is no racism, they’ll still pretend it still exists. It is the bat with which to keep on beating us over the heads.

Apartheid is the best thing that ever happened to the ANC. It is the only reason they have to exist. Beyond that, they have nothing, are nothing, and contribute nothing to this country.

A Rhodesian friend of mine made a remark to me some time back that blacks will keep on beating up on us for the simple reason THAT THEY KNOW THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH IT. Nothing more.

And when will it stop? NEVER! NEVER!

The only time it will stop, is when we stand up for ourselves, and fight back and burn them good.

Showing them weakness, is the WORST THING WE CAN DO. People like Adriaan Vlok, and Dr Leon Wessels are only helping to DIG AN EVEN BIGGER HOLE FOR THE REST OF US!

Let me predict this: They will keep on bludgeoning us and attacking us. They will steal more and more from us – and it will never stop – until the day when we are completely and utterly sick of it, and we get up and we PUSH THEM BACK. Perhaps, when the day comes, when we have NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE, because we’ve already lost it all – perhaps that is the day, when we’ll stand up and kick them in the nuts. Only on that day, will they respect us again, and watch their mouths and their arrogance. Jan]
