Afrikaner Shame: The Boere Are Asking For Genocide

I am ashamed to admit that Afrikaner blood runs in my veins. My father was right to distance himself from his Afrikaans heritage and bring his children up as English-speakers.

He believed that Afrikaners had become a spineless, divided lot who would come to a bad end. He was right, and unfortunately he could not live enough to see just how right he was proven.

What have these white Afrikaans-speakers become?

These are the people
* who think that 7de Laan is art
* who think that De La Rey is a protest song
* who think that being gay is the same as being creative
* who think that freedom means holding the annual Goliat van Gat Pumpkin Festival
* who think it is one in the eye for the ANC when they move to Perth, London, Atlanta
* who think that securing pensions for the last generation of white civil servants represented a victory
* who think that FW "did what he had to" and giving up the police and military in 1994 was a brilliant tactical gesture on his part
* who think that working as "security officers" in Iraq, Congo, wherever, because they can't get army and police jobs in South Africa is the height of intelligence
* who think that land reform is a step in the right direction
* who let the infrastructures protecting Afrikaans be eroded in ten years (schools, universities, etc.)
* who stopped going to church when freedom came because God was clearly in favour of the ANC
* whose sole fighter for Afrikaans is that extremely malleable ponce from Sandton, Dan Roodt, (yes, he writes in English and used to be an ANC supporter) whose main gripe is that he sometimes has to flush his toilet with his swimming pool water
* who think that they are going to get justice in the courts and that sooner or later the ANC will learn the error of their ways and give them back their jobs and change the street names back to what they were
* who think that owning a franchise makes you a businessman
* who allowed the rural commando's to be disbanded
* who whine about farm murders but don't do anything about it in the great Boere-guerilla tradition
* whose resistance to all of this came in the shape of the arrest of a group of pointy-heads from the East Rand who had an arms cache

The Boere were not always this way. Right up until the end of PW they showed an enormous amount of spine. Here's a random selection of great Afrikaners:

Even that vainglorious bore, Chris Barnard, was a great Afrikaner. He and his brother did for the first time what has become a fairly routine surgical procedure all over the planet. For those Afrikaners without the benefit of an education hy het die eerste hartoorplanting in die geskiedenis gedoen.



Jan Smuts, arch-womanizer and adventurer, cut a swathe through the world as a major academic intellect, soldier, philosopher, statesman, naturalist and leader of men. Smuts was one of the best students Cambridge ever had (for the information of any modern Afrikaners who might be reading this, Cambridge is 'n universiteit in Engeland. He was instrumental in forming the League of Nations and the UN. He wrote actual books.



Jan Breytenbach was not like his arch-liberal brother Breyten Breytenbach who liked a bit of poontang and fed off the apartheid literature muck-heap. JB was a brilliant rebel soldier who founded and formed Buffalo Battalion who fought the forces of darkness for many decades until FW handed over the military to the AIDS-ridden hewers of wood and drawers of water who lumber along in camo. He is still alive. Ready when you are, JB.

Sad and to a large extent true.

Nothing worse than an Afrikaner gone Jingo, like you. Neither fish nor fowl, you are constantly howling in the wind. Bet you won't publish this, you sad piece of Jingo rubbish

What is a Jingo? It's not really an Afrikaans term. I'm guessing this enraged Afrikaner is on another continent (not Africa), married to an English speaker, using such terms as this every day incorrectly, trying to be English-like. Wat makeer jou Afrikaans? Here is South Africa we use the term "veraaier" for example. And anonymous you need to check your mixed metaphors. How could a fish or a fowl howl in the wind. Are you mad? Did you mean a dingo perhaps? For an Afrikaner who moved to an English country you are indeed a sad fucker and you never will acclimatise.
