The problem with Apartheid as a Tall Tale

Objectively one would have to agree that most people are worse off today than at any other point in our modern history, bar the British scorched earth policies in the second Boer war, where black and Afrikaners were thrown in concentration camps, mainly women and children as the men were out in the field fighting. It doesn't take away from the fact that apartheid was an ill conceived idea that was trying to create two parralel societies, and at the same time have them work together with one another, blacks supplying labour and low level jobs while whites control the economy. I wonder sometimes if the white supremacist attitude of the broederbond made them totally underestimate the intelligence of the black community, and also ignore the fact that they were vastly outnumbered by black people. Yet even trying to see the thing for what it is, and remove all the emotion from the argument, will get you slated as a right winger, white apologist, Nazi, white supremacist, or my personal favourite "the white victim mentality". Fact is, we are all victims, there's an onslaught on whites and blacks psyche from the left, and it's making people ugly, politicizing everything you can think of.

Your shower thought is valid, we should take these thoughts to a logical conclusion,à who stands to benefit from the current stage of white hatred?

It can make us better people if we stand for truth.
