This is a great read, and I can tell this author really did spend a lot of time living in my country. Most of what he says is spot on, especially where he talks about their having no concept of keeping a promise, their lack of forethought and their bloodlust.

These are all things I grew up kind of intrinsically knowing about them, as the author says, if you’re a white person capable of abstract thought you can predict what’s going to happen or what a group of Africans is going to do and prempt them in order to get yourself out of harms way, in fact YOU HAVE TO in order to stay alive. It’s funny to me where the author acknowledges his assumptions can be misconstrued as “racist”, because that’s 99% of the reason why white South Africans got such vicious backlash from the rest of the world in the 80’s, why we’re still portrayed as evil racist thugs today in mission impossible movies etc.

We were this weird little militarised country at the bottom of the world that spoke a funny, Germanish-sounding language and wouldn’t let blacks live in our cities. But it was never because we hated them, it was because we recognised the cultural differences were simply too vast and incompatible for both races to flourish. It’s hard to build a country when your farms are being burned, your livestock stolen, your women and children raped etc by a group of simpletons still stuck in the Stone Age with no concept of morality. We recognised they needed to be managed, they needed to be educated, they needed to be taught the concepts we all took for granted. Those were the real reasons for the apartheid policies that formed in the years that followed.

Contrary to everything that’s been written about it in the decades since, the apartheid policy wasn’t born out of hatred for blacks (if it was, we would have simply slaughtered them as Europeans slaughtered indigenous tribes elsewhere in the world). No, we wanted to uplift them into something better, we wanted to civilise them, guide them to the Lord as our deeply Calvinist Christian culture demanded.

So we built them parallel cities, highways, roads, hospitals and schools (things the tribes just a generation previously could never have even conceptualised sitting around the fire in their animal skins), and we told them, “all of this can be yours. All we ask is that you keep to your side and we’ll keep to ours, okay? Anything at all you need, just give a holler, we’re happy to help. Just as long as you keep to your side so that our women and children are safe”. That’s ALL that apartheid ever was. The term literally meant “seperate DEVELOPMENT”.

Development, not genocide, not racism, not any of the bullshit CNN and the other fake news peddled in the 80’s. Development.

But they didn’t develop. They torched the cities and schools and hospitals we built them, their areas became lawless hell holes almost immediately for all the reasons the author in your link highlights. And once their areas were absolute third world shit holes, you’d better believe CNN were there to film “the abhorrent conditions these poor people are expected to live under”, never mind that all their suffering was self inflicted.

It was also the reason why white South Africans for decades told the UN and the rest of the globalists to fuck off, we didn’t care about their bullshit sanctions. We knew if the apartheid policies ended, our cities and our homes would become as lawless as the African townships. We knew our women and children would be raped and murdered, we knew our infrastructure would rot away and the country we’d built would crumble in just a few decades (oh how wrong we were, right?).

It’s okay though, because they took a well mannered terrorist named Nelson Mandela, a man who’d planted bombs that killed schoolchildren, stuck him in front of the cameras in a nice suit with a few rug rats at his feet and made him president. Such a feel good story! So while everything we predicted would happen was happening, and our country was going to absolute shit on a daily basis, the focus was always on the good feels! It’s almost exactly what’s happening to America in the modern day.
