RE: Marching for South Africa | Brisbane March

in #southafrica7 years ago

Thanks for that. Yeah I'm not South African but I am very upset at their plight. People need to get behind them because it is not considered politically correct to help white people and many people, particularly those on the left, do not believe that racism against whites is even a thing.

Many South Africans that are flocking to the social media pages of the Australian public figures that are championing their cause seem very desperate, upset and scared. I can't ignore it and I think of these people almost daily. I also have South African associates here in Australia that I deal with frequently and they are also upset and scared for their family back home. I wish I was doing more for them aside from just marching, signing petitions and sharing stuff on social media.

I'll be writing some more on Steemit about the situation and I will try to branch out to other platforms as well.

Thank you for helping the South Africans as they need all the help they can get. As an ex South African I will now dedicate my posts here and on minds.com to helping my fellow South Africans. I left because I realized there was no future for me there back in 2007. Unfortunately many South Africans have been brainwashed into believing that the grass isn't greener on he other side and are determined to stay at whatever cost to their safety. Unfortunately they will wake up too late. I appreciate what Australia is doing for those who want to leave. However please keep in mind there are many that can't afford to even pay for a passport let alone a ticket out of there to safety. There are people who even have qualifications who are living in squatter camps as they have forcibly lost their jobs due to the governments racist affirmative action policies. Many white South Africans blame themselves for apartheid but the government at the time was racist and anyone who stood up to them would get into trouble and get a jail sentence. The current government wants the whites to stay so as to oppress them and as you see torture and murder them. Apartheid was nothing compared to what they are planing to do and are doing to the whites. Apartheid was a barrier stopping blacks from killing whites and one another. The murder statistics speak for themselves since the ANC came into power. Thanks for caring.

Yeah I know I have seen those squatter camps. Just terrible. Also some of the people are elderly and disabled and can't move. I agree that the solution of expedited visas alone will not solve the problem.
