      ​@caramazzola2399 I was born in 99. I have no idea how it was in the past so I make a habit of asking everyone. Black white Indian and coloured. And they all say the same thing. The only issue back then was the police brutality. Otherwise everyone was seen to. Propaganda is the reason we hate eachother so easily. Simpler times were in the past because technology has ruined life as we know it. If you can't see that as a world wide truth then you live with blinders on

      Good ole times for the Boers, perhaps less good for the vast majority of the population.
      To have a Saffer refer to apartheid era as Good ole Times is as inappropriate as it would be for a German to say the same about the Nazi era.

      I think the skin colour comments will always come from the ones who actually never grew up in the 80s. The problem is the youth of these days listen too much to politicians who will always hang on to apartheid era of what I'm assuming was bad in the 50s 60s 70s etc...but 80s was a game changer. Even if you ask elder black folk they will also say it was a much better time. Jobs were plenty, crime was at an all time low, education was top notch. As an Indian I can assure that even though we couldn't get a director position but also at a general worker wage it was enough to have a mother stay at home look after the kids and still not worry about going hungry. It was still enough to basically live carefree. The 80s will always be something that only the ones who actually lived through it and living through today's society will know the difference in quality of life. The main difference is money was never a problem in the 80s if you didn't like a certain job leave it and another was waiting for you. You had choices, fair enough non whites couldn't get the top CEO position but they still were fortunate enough to run a household without ever worrying where next month's rent is gonna come from. So if you think today brings you freedom then talk to people who were blessed to live through the 80s. Now that was freedom. So before listening to a politician listen to your elders.

      @@roshannaidoo3792 and that environment forced many Indian people to start their own businesses and be their own CEOs. Much like the BBBEEE policies of the day have forced many white people to work for themselves. The white population has gotten proportionally richer due to this, and it would appear that those negatively affected the most, are those the legislation alleges to uplift.
      The thing I think we’ve lost the most since “freedom” is a sense of community, when people looked after their neighbours. No everyone build high walls to insulate their homes from the outside community. And your neighbours getting robbed is none of your concern, as long as you’re safe.
      A pervasive spirit of Kaliuga has infected our society on every level. And the love and kindness of many has grown cold, in order to serve self ambition. 🤔

      I'm guessing you didn't grow up in the 80s, the reason you can't understand why it was so great is because it's one of those things you would have had to experience. Similar to love one cannot explain how nice it feels you have to experience it for yourself. Fair enough it had its few bad points but it's good far outweighed all the negative sides. I think the 70s and below was the worst part of it but the 80s was the game changer. Stop listening to politicians and start listening to your elders. Cos if you feel you are blessed with the way the country is now it's a shame you couldn't experience what living in a crime free, financially strong country felt like. Listening to stories from politicians is like listening to the same stories from people in first world countries who think that people in Africa are still living in the bush with wild animals 😂

      Theres less creativity in most fields these days: website design, tv, logos, architecture, cars, clothing, everything.
      I think with education being so available eith thr internet, the 'right' way to do things has been hammered for too long that people dont feel the need to change things or inovate anymore. Basically we assume the best option must be out there somewhere already and we should copy it.
