Racism Returns to South Africa

Why don't you?

Unless you can show me a document of ownership that states that America belongs to Watermark then what the fuck are you talking about?

I thought the quotes around "sophisticated" would tip you off to the fact that it was a mock-argument.

Apparently it flew over someone's head...

How long will it be before people face the reality of the past without whining about the fact that it makes whites look bad?

I don't care about looking bad, dumbass. I care about ongoing policies of racial discrimination, framed as justice.
 
As an interesting anecdote, I almost had my college schedule dropped the other day because of a stupid money problem, and I declared to my father "I don't like dealing with money, I'm moving to Cuba!". He, a lifelong conservative Republican, just shook his head and said "I wouldn't blame ya..."

Not really much Cuba hatred around here. Actually, we're planning to head out there one day. I hear they don't stamp American passports so that no one will no we're breaking that stupid embargo.
 
***sigh***

Yeah, but this is adding fuel to the fire. That country's going to hell in a hand basket, and if these farmers had any sense, they'd sell and get out while they can. Unless you can definitely point to a person and say, "you personally stole my lot" and I want it returned, redistribution will only push the problem further along. I'm under the impression that these white land owners either inherited the land or bought it themselves and now they are being forced to sell it because of their skin color. I think policies promoting the native African's to come into power can be good, but when they outrightly put other people down, you're headed for trouble.

This is soo redundant...the "White" farmers cultivated the land and made a profit from their hard work...while the indigenous people held land for several thousand years prior with absolutely no improvement...kinda/sorta akin to Israels problemos with the Palestinians...they took back some of their land that was cutlivated by Israel farmers...and it is a mess torn down and depleted waste land once again...go figure all you gurus of anthropology et al!
