@@crimsondaoist798 You act like life in South Africa is horrible. Yeah, there's corruption and crime, but crime has decreased since Apartheid and access to electricity and basic amenities have increased significantly. The economy is heavily industrialized and quality of life and average wealth has been consistently increasing since 1994 , despite the unemployment issue. South Africa's economy is far stronger than under Apartheid and despite the shocks of the recently past decade, is still going strong and South Africa is still proverbially the giant of Southern Africa, controlling a large customs area. Jobs are a lot harder to find, but still possible to find. It's also weird seeing people complain about crime and corruption when they were completely with the worse situation under Apartheid. Corruption, Farm robberies/attacks and crime in general were far more common under Apartheid than now, yet the people who complain now supported or were quiet about those issues then. Also, it's weird seeing people who have wifi, phone data and who live in safe neighborhoods talk about crime and job loss like they're experiencing them and that no one in South Africa can find jobs anymore. I mean tons of people from surrounding countries immigrate to South Africa for work or to start a business.

I believe we can make South Africa and Africa as a whole a better and more developed continent with lower levels of poverty and stronger advancements. But in order for this to happen, we really need to sort out the issue of racism, self hatred and be willing to re educate ourselves and the future generation and the values we need to instill in our communities and society as a whole. To some this may seem like an impossible or daunting task. The truth is however, as a species we have not even begun to tap into our true potential. These are the values I will be teaching my children. Regardless of whatever backlash we may receive for pushing for positive change and rehabilitating our nations, we need to push forward with compassion and honesty and have the sense of direction that great people are made of. I am very excited about the future of our continent. Love you all, Patriots. God bless Africa 🤗🙌🙏

Society is based on quantum principles yet we were taught to believe it is each for themselves. For as long as we allow evil to thrive, truth will never see the day of light. The question now becomes, what is the truth and do we have the courage to be honest to ourselves enough to want to make a difference based on the truths we hold or will we accept our current reality as a norm?

Bush came into power and did the full comprehensive form of the sanctions, and won't you know, South Africa became compliant.

I was going to ignore your comment and pass it off as just another angry uneducated type but it was just too good to ignore. Your first point about "that" being an excuse shows how emotional you are. It is common knowledge that during apartheid, South Africa was under international economic sanctions therefore restrictions were put on their financial transactions including their currency trade. This meant that the Rand was worth absolute shit outside the South African borders, to the point that the apartheid government abolished the financial rand exchange rate system and basically set up their own rating system which they could determine themselves how much it is was worth. So when you see the rand/dollar exchange in the 80s, just know it's total bullshit. If the Rand/Dollar exchange rate was as good as you say it was, trust you me, the apartheid regime wouldn't have ended when it did. The fact that the SA economy was worth dog shit at the time, brought about pressure to the government to begin steps to end the damn thing. When you say "you and your type fucked it up" I don't know what you mean. I'm not in the financial business so I can't tell you how I'm responsible for anything. "My type" however well you have to be a bit most specific because when you look around at all developing countries particularly commodity countries you will see that their economies/currencies are not doing well at the moment (explanation for this will take forever but fill free to do your own research). "Feel free and pull the RACE card.. YOU will never be us. YOU will NEVER get to our standards and our levels." - Well I can't help you here as this is a journey of healing that you and only you must take. Best wishes

Even though our country descends further into madness, there was no moral justification for the Apartheid system - and anyone who argues otherwise, needs to examine that concept. However, what has transpired under the current leadership is absolutely shameful. Unfortunately, we were all fooled into thinking the ANC was the only legitimate liberating party, when in fact - there were others, but they did not suit the West. So here we are. Either way, I've not time in my life for black South Africans who would preach war, nor for those white South Africans who would have us believe this country was something of a paradise. It was....but for whom? Surely, with all we have learnt, with all we know from history, there has to be a better way than what we're facing now?

Is this really 1987? To the best of my research, this is the 8 o'clock news on 12 December 1986. Source from Video: The Australian Rebel team played against EP on 12,13,14 December 1986. They lost to SA on Wed. 10 December 1986. Only thing that throws me is the Long Weekend reference. However, I think it is the long weekend associated with 16 Dec and the start of Christmas holidays in SA. Sorry for being so pedantic, but I just love this historic stuff. So thanks for the video post and if you have more, please post them all. As a side note, I had about 2 weeks before I had to report to Valhalla for Nation Service in Jan 87. :) Cheers.
