ANC has a racist agenda
A tongue-in-cheek saying describes an immigrant from another country as poorly educated, not proficient in English and from humble background.
This same immigrant, endowed with high intelligence, ambition and a laudable work ethic, succeeded in creating a successful life in his new environment. “From Poland to Polo in one generation.” That is, he elevated his financial and social standing exponentially.
The antithesis of this saying would read: “From hope to hopelessness in two generations.” And this would still be a compliment to the ANC. Hopelessness could well be substituted by “disaster” as that is what this dysfunctional organisation has descended to in a mere 27 years.
The ANC government, after winning the first democratic election in the country has misruled for 27 years and achieved nothing but a bankrupt, dysfunctional and kleptocratic state governed over by a coterie of incompetence and arrogance.
While SA shed its abhorrent apartheid racist regime, to be replaced with a nonracist, nonsexist, constitutional democracy something we were all proud of and embraced, things have turned out very differently. Sadly, we are seeing almost as much racism under ANC rule now.
The ANC policy of cadre deployment, broadbased BEE, the Judicial Service Commission’s (JSC’s) recent selection of Constitutional Court replacements and the ANC version of affirmative action has clearly exposed the ANC’s racialism.
This racist agenda manifests itself most blatantly in unabashed anti-Semitic attacks against the Jewish people. Attacking the Jewish state is a constant narrative of the ANC, cleverly designed to conflate hatred of Jews. The ANC is closely aligned to the BDS, a movement that is anti-Semitic in cause, purpose and meaning. Naturally they would deny being anti-Semitic, but their behaviour speaks differently.
