@@Babazulu Hi Babazulu .. My grandfather came here from Scotland in the1860s. He trekked through the Cape, Orange, and Transvaal republics. He co founded Rand Mines with Herman Eckstein, and was later refused citizenship of the Transvaal Republic by Paul Kruger. My family has remained here ever since. What country do you feel I should claim to be a citizen of?
Oh stop it already. We spent the day together in Maryland and DC all day Sunday, walking freely, no crime, no danger. Far safer than driving on the R21 to Pretoria.
Great show, I live in NYC, I am a3rd generation Manhattan born New Yorker, people say, you should move to Florida, and I say why, this is my home and I am gonna fight as hard as I can to bring it back. People forget that there are families that have lived for generations in NYC, immigrants or even illegal immigrants do not make up the back bone of my great city. It is time that we start to dig our trench.
I can't even say it's a slip of the tongue. I suspect he is just playing the sympathy game with western media here. He totally contradicts himself towards the end of the video.
How can anyone take this man seriously when he claims that the present day South African government is more racist than Apartheid South Africa. South Africa is the most unequal country in the world and that inequality is still divided along racial lines and it is a situation that was created by apartheid. The racist laws he is referring to aim to redress the legacy of apartheid. These laws are not perfect but they are an attempt to solve a very real problem. There is no way that anyone could solve South Africas problems by trying to divide us even more, and pandering to equally racist and revisionist people on the other side of the world.
Rubbish. As of 2016 45% of the millionaires in rsa are "previously disadvantaged". The race based laws are unconstitutional and ended up damaging the country. Your "oh they not perfect but..." statement is a load of tripe.
There were some people in the comments saying that Afrikaners can get Orania, English South Africans get the western Cape and the rest of us can get everything else. I'm pretty sure most South Africans would not want that. I can't take these people seriously
Clearly jack you won't ask the relevant questions but anyways your friend Ernst must also tell you he still has more land ~more power~better schools ~better health care ~better wealth and ect. 😂😂 Ernst you've said it yourself you regard yourself as a westerner and surely you would love apartheid crime to come back in 🇿🇦 aneh
Goed gedoen Ernst ..!! maar jy sal die Taal kwessie in perspektief moet bring. Nie net die Heksejag teèn Afrikaans nie ... maar die kwessie van Histories Ongeletterdheid vd Sub Saharan kulture... USA se mense besef nie dat meèste Kaders nie kan lees en skryf nie !!!
There are also sub groups in the Afrikaaners such as Boers or Bhürs. Who are God fearing, morraly based, have a deep respect for nature and cherish freedom not government.
Cause its true bantu pushed yous off the land and yes we settled mostly vacant land or deals made for land south africa was not built by koisan you make claims that are 400years old south africa was for those in it and still is
Chill bru, he was talking about America, and I don't think he realized what he was saying. Yes you were the first, as the Zulus traveled from the north as the deserts were creeping in and eventually settled in KZN. Throughout history civilizations were replaced/infultrated, as the strong overpower the week, white, black, Asian, it doesn't discriminate. We see it even today. Trying to rectify this by giving back to the weaker what the strong have built up, only degrades society. Build your community and stand strong so that you cannot be overpowered. Blacks and whites are now being replaced by immigrants in the USA because their society has become weak. It's an endless cycle.
@@AndrewduToit-wl3tn I think what's more important is that they were not living on literally every square kilometer of South Africa and thus they cannot claim the whole country as it is today. I don't understand why people think that being in the general area first gives them ancestral rights to land their ancestors didn't live on or claim as theirs in addition to the land which they probably did. Realistically though, I don't think we should give an entire country "back" to the Khoisan when there are so few real Khoisan left anyway. Must millions of people leave for a handful of hunter gatherers who probably don't care anyway? If we did, then the Americans, Australians, etc. must all leave their countries too, otherwise it wouldn't be fair on us.
The rainbow country-Afrikaner, Black, Coloreds, Indians, Chinese and American African(instead of African American). As long as everyone can live in peace and not rely on the government! 😂
Ernst is talking bs apartheid was much worse than the current government the Real Africans, Coloureds and Indians had no rights, only Europeans had full.political rights, he obviously didnt suffer under apartheid which is why he talks pure nonsense. Does he have to carry a pass is he freedom of movement restricted is his people disenfranchised are they barred from entering bars restaurants, cinemas, buses, parks, beaches swimming pools and hospitals due to their race. Ernst should remember that. He and his people enjoy full political rights. Posted from Britain
He is talking of values. We have been in Africa longer than the whites in America or in Australia, but have retained our Judaio/Christian value system.
We, South AFRICAN westerners, are in AFRICA for the same reasons that Japanese (who are westerners) are in Japan. I.e, western is not a geographical concept, it is a value system.
@dirkrenierswart6947 just Christian, the Afrikaners are Christian. Don't adopt a modern talking point to give credence to those who believe and follow the Talmud, not the Bible. The state of the current South Africa is rather to those who follow the Talmud that have supported the downfall of the Afrikaner and its Christian values.
They confused 😂😂 bathi South African westerners Christians 😂😂 WTF is that? You want all the privileges. During apartheid you were "European" 😂😂 the most confused nation on earth.
No. The Broederbond is not involved. Solidariteit is a community movement. They train members in things like basic preparedness, they do community service like fixing roads, patrolling suburbs etc. It’s not about politics or power
Wow, Mandela must be turning in his grave as he listens to the rewriting of South Africa's painful history. The fact that the majority of the land is still in the hands of the minority is a stark reminder of the injustice that persists amongst black people. Note, the ANC corruption can not be used to cancel the felt sins of racism. By the way loashedding is the thing of the past fixed by ANC deployee.
😂😂 if it makes you feel better, you keep on telling yourself that.... but the truth is white expertise (ex Eskom now private contractors) are currently fixing it! 😂😂😂😂
Ernst doesn't say that his organisation does not accept the participation of non-white people even if the latter hold the same economic beliefs. Skin Color is central to their acceptance criteria.
Are you deliberately obtuse? They are first and foremost a cultural organisation that also work towards ensuring the safety and prosperity of their group. They happen to be white. If other cultures, of which we have many in South Africa, want to protect their culture and prosperity, there is nothing to stop them from doing so. From what I notice, the Indian and Jewish communities have been doing just that for a long time. I am so tired of the Afrikaners being scapegoated.
Afrikaners are an ethnic group in the same way as the Zulu or the Xhosa. It's not hard to understand. As a white person I wouldn't be entitled to call myself a Zulu even if I speak the language and hold the same beliefs. Why would people who are not Afrikaners be entitled to call themselves Afrikaners? Are they calling themselves Afrikaners when they are benefiting from racist BEE legislation which gives them preferential employment opportunities or are they then calling themselves Zulu or Xhosa etc?
Christian universities for the Afrikaner people? Have I understood correctly? Be very careful not to succumb to narrowmindedness: We all should know by now that religion is not a prerequisite for morality or virtuous conduct. Besides, consider the fact that some Afrikaner people are not Christians. Oops, and personally I'm not a braai fan myself- being vegetarian and all. Would I qualify for Afrikanerdom though if on both parents side, I am of European extraction and therfore "caucasian", hailing back to the mid-17th century, completed Afrikaans -Nederlands- studies at the RAU in the 1970's and raised my children in Afrikaans, but do not adhere to the fundamentalism of the Afrikaans church? "Slave to no sect, who takes no private road, but looks through nature, up to nature's God". - Alexander Pope.
Nothing wrong with Potch Varsity graduates. We do know however that atheism and liberal secularism area prerequisite for immorality and lack of virtues. Beware narrowmindedness yourself - openmindedness is a two way street.
