I\u2019m English!\u201d Asof daar tydens rasgemotiveerde aanvalle na die taalgroep of graad van politieke korrektheid van die slagoffer gekyk word.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">Tereg het haar medeskryfster, Fransi Phillips die vraag gevra of dit beteken dat alle rassiste dan die doodstraf verdien?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">Ongeag wat Scheepers se bedoeling met haar uitspraak was, of dit onnadenkend of berekend gemaak is, weet ons dat blanke en veral Afrikanerslagoffers van plaasaanvalle nie soveel simpatie by joernaliste en openbare figure geniet soos byvoorbeeld bruin of swart slagoffers nie. Tans is daar \u2018n hele veldtog rondom die bendeverkragting en moord op Anene Booysen van Bredasdorp aan die gang. Selfs die spotprentkunstenaar Zapiro, wat die Nuwe Suid-Afrika gewoonlik as \u2018n utopie voorstel, het tot die stryd toegetree.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">Indien Anene Booysen wit was, sou dit geensins soveel emosie gaande gemaak het nie. Ongelukkig is dit so dat daar vandag \u2018n gees in die w\u00eareld vaardig is wat mense van Europese afkoms as \u201cmoreel gebreklik\u201d voorstel. Vir my word hierdie vooroordeel jeens blankes die beste opgesom deur die Amerikaans-Joodse skryfster Susan Sontag se berugte woorde:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">&#8220;Mozart, Pascal, Boolean algebra, Shakespeare, parliamentary government, baroque churches, Newton, the emancipation of women, Kant, Balanchine ballets, et al. don&#8217;t redeem what this particular civilization has wrought upon the world. The white race is the cancer of human history.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">Daarom, toe Riana Scheepers kommentaar op haar ouers se plaasaanvoel moes lewer, het sy instinktief aangevoel dat sy dit as \u201cmoreel gebreklike\u201d &#8211; as blanke &#8211; moes doen. Vandaar haar belydenis dat haar ouers nie skuldig aan die moderne melaatsheid, wit rassisme, is nie.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">Dit is altyd makliker en meer gerieflik &#8211; selfs meer winsgewend! &#8211; om die heersende ideologie van jou tyd en van jou land klakkeloos te aanvaar as om dit te bevraagteken. Soveel Afrikaanse skrywers wat in 1987 by Dakar as nuttige idiote deur die ANC gebruik of misbruik is om die politieke mag in ons land te bekom, is vandag tjoepstil oor geweld. Nog minder skryf hulle oor die taal- en rassediskriminasie wat soveel van ons mense vandag kasty. Want uiteindelik word sulke skrywers nie deur hul eie gewete aangespreek nie, maar deur die bemarkingsbehoeftes van hul volgende boek en deur die stel antiblanke vooroordele van die Naspersgroep en veral van die Britse joernaliste in ons land wat steeds hul holruggeryde propaganda teen Afrikaners produseer en ons oral waar hulle kan, swartsmeer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">George Orwell, die skrywer van 1984 en Animal Farm, het ges\u00ea: \u201cOm in \u2018n tyd van universele leuens die waarheid te praat, is \u2018n revolusion\u00eare daad.\u201d Waarskynlik was daar nog nooit \u2018n land ter w\u00eareld waar die Leuen hom so diep ingegrawe het as juis die hedendaagse Suid-Afrika nie. Vandaar ons groot behoefte aan \u2018n paar waarhede, al word ons in die proses skerp aangeval deur al wat professionele leuenaar is.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">Darem is Riana Scheepers van mening dat \u201cDie land&#8230; in \u2019n gat van morele verrotting (is).\u201d Dit mag so wees, maar is dit nie juis die alternatiewe moraliteit van wit skuld wat ons hier gebring het nie? Want om \u2018n polities onkorrekte stelling te maak, word dikwels as \u2018n groter misdaad as moord of verkragting gesien. Die skuim-om-die-mond-joernaliste en -meningsvormers kan nog die onbevlekte deeltjie van die moordenaar se hart raaksien, maar enigeen wat dit durf waag om te s\u00ea dat onderwys v\u00f3\u00f3r 1994 beter was as nou, word as \u2018n ketter of Middeleeuse heks gehoon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">Nie verniet nie het die Afrikaanse digter Breyten Breytenbach onlangs hierdie waar woorde gespreek: \u201cDie politieke korrektheid dwarsoor die w\u00eareld is sieklik, multikultarisme is erger as die swart pes in die Middeleeue!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">\u2018n Vrou op Facebook skryf sowaar vir my dat my \u201cpogings om \u2018intellektueel\u2019 voor te kom neem ongelukkig niks weg van die feit dat die wyse waarop Riana en haar ouers hierdie aangeleentheid hanteer hulle plaas in \u2018n klas waar jy ongelukkig nooit sal pas nie\u201d. Verstaan ek dit reg dat sy bedoel dat politieke korrektheid ook \u2018n vorm van snobisme is?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">In di\u00e9 opsig het die ouers van Amy Biehl seker die meeste \u201cklas\u201d van almal gehad deur nie net die jong, swart moordenaars van hul dogter in die openbaar te vergewe nie, maar ook vir hulle deur hul stigting werk te skep en as\u2019t ware vir hul misdaad te beloon. Die Biehls verteenwoordig die patologiese sy van wit skuld en masochisme wat swartes van alle morele aanspreeklikheid onthef.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">Wat vir my verstommend is, is dat mense die geweld en onreg in ons land met soveel traak-my-nie-agtigheid verduur, dieselfde gelatendheid waarmee Linda en Peter Biehl die moord op hul dogter aanvaar het en dit selfs op \u2018n perverse manier \u201cvier\u201d. In ou Fenisi\u00eb het ouers menslike offerandes van hul eersgeborenes aan die god Ba\u00e4l gebring.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\">Is politieke korrektheid die Ba\u00e4l van ons tyd en hoeveel menselewens moet nog grusaam aan di\u00e9 wrede afgod geoffer word?<\/span><span id=\"internal-source-marker_0.7368333460042417\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/praag.org\/?page_id=3660\">Doen jou deel in die stryd teen politieke korrektheid en geweld.
