Nice try, Robin. There’s seemingly nothing you won’t invert, subvert and pervert in pursuit of your personal vendettas, nothing so sacred that can’t be smeared. The histrionics and mock indignation fool no-one though, given your repeated smearing, veiled threats and wishing harm to others on these forums. As for a public condemnation of apartheid, I’d have thought going over there to help its victims would’ve been condemnation enough. I also presumed it’d be common knowledge apartheid was evil, brutal, unjust and inhumane – and in no need of trite condemnation from me. This may be news to you, but critiquing one, lesser-known side of an argument is not condoning the other. Critiquing your superficial knowledge and unflagging use of the race card is not condoning apartheid. This would be obvious to most people but apparently not to you – the bigot who condones political violence.What exactly did you do over there in apartheid South Africa, by the way? You criticise me for going out there to help but seemingly didn’t go yourself. If I’m worthy of criticism, you must be worthy of more. ...And I played no part in bringing apartheid to an end – I just went there to try and help people, hence teaching in a township. I was saddened by the injustice, wanted to do something and was lucky enough to have an anti-apartheid campaigner help me out there. What did you do over there again?As for my views on “black kids’ heads being pumped with bullets”, they’re just the same as with any child being shot - the colour, class and context doesn’t matter. This would be obvious to most people, but apparently not to you - the bigot who condones political violence.And no need to take my word for the tactics “some black South Africans engaged in during the apartheid years” – the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s findings did a pretty good job. This would be known to anyone with more than a superficial knowledge of apartheid’s evil, but apparently not to you – the bigot who condones political violence.[Ironic you mentioned “some” black South Africans though. This was the point I was making when you asked “what options were left” for the ANC – hence my singling out the “violent wing of the ANC”, as opposed to the ANC in its totality. It was only a minority of the ANC which practiced violence – a fact apparently unknown to you when seemingly condoning MK’s routine torture, indiscriminate murder and human rights violations.]
