How on earth is this not hate speech?

It's not, because 'hate speech' is one of those doublespeak terms invented by the Left. Just like rape culture, male privilege, neoliberalism, homophobia, sexism etc.

The leftists are the ones who define what hate speech is, and what isn't. That's because it exists only in their minds, and nowhere else.

TL;DR: she can fuck off, although I’d advise her to present the plan at a Kommandokorps camp.

Considering the author’s apparent background, this is hardly surprising. Seeking to correct ‘past ills’ ― habitually catalogued under the all-encompassing banner of colonialism ― with the repression of those perceived to have formerly been repressors is quite fashionable an idea in certain social justice-seeking circles, and these in turn, are not known exactly for the nuance and sophistication of their theses, which are often laughably absurd in both the supposed problems aired and the solutions put forth for their miraculous resolution. This idea is not, however, lacking in intellectual baggage, as a reading of Marcuse’s ‘Repressive Tolerance’, published in A Critique of Pure Tolerance, will reveal. Let us examine the paragraph Marcuse uses to conclude his word vomit:

...

Observe the disorder of this prescription; there is absolutely no-one to determine when the ‘militantly intolerant’ minorities have overcome, engendering the Cockaigne forged under their guard. Unlike Marx, there is neither a programme nor an end in sight; Marx assures us of the eventual withering away of the state, but Marcuse, the idol of present-day agitators and Starbucks socialists, treats us to a mere promise of ‘real democracy’. It is essential, when breaching the realm of left, to dissect its methods and so-called public intellectuals, for although the vast majority of bullshit-swallowing proles don’t read Frankfurt school works, they still mindlessly regurgitate its precepts.

As a friendly suggestion, go with left-aligned instead of justified text. Most of the stuff I read in normal-everyday-life is in justified, but on the forum it's jarring when everything else is left-aligned. I fear some readers may skip over your post(s) for that (trivial) reason.

I look forward to more of your contributions.

I tend to abstain from one-liners and very short posts, preferring instead the increased liberty of several lines or paragraphs, which has led to the emergence of a desire for book-form organisation. I have, however, improved over time, considering I used a serif font in my first posts because I thought it prettier and easier to read! If you notice, I also use curly apostrophes so as to have them coincide with the commas’ design.

But I will heed your advice.

Quote:Media24 announced on Sunday that it would investigate the controversial blog "Could It Be Time To Deny White Men The Franchise?” published on Huffington Post South Africa on Thursday.Huffington Post South Africa removed the blog on Saturday after it was unable to confirm the veracity of the source, Shelley Garland, who claimed to be a Masters student at the University of Cape Town.

Quote:Fury erupted on social media on Friday after it was established that Shelley Garland was not a student at the University of Cape Town and most likely an imposter.

As we all know huffpo defended the article long before they denounced it. When they did investigate and uncover the truth, what did they do? They approached the guy at work and got him fired to resign. He gave his resignation to one (((ann Bernstein))).

They fuck up. They get called out and embarrassed, he loses his job.

Quote:The man behind “Shelley Garland,” Marius Roodt, was identified after the Huffington Post digitally traced his email and used facial recognition technology on the picture of “Garland,” which was actually a picture of Roodt altered to look like a woman.

Quote:According to Connie Mulder, head of Solidarity’s Research Institute (SRI), the analysis of the results repeatedly showed that there was an inconsistency and a “certain selectivity” as far as the extent was concerned of the media attention slurs made by black people received compared to those made by white people.

Beyond the public reaction and level of ‘severity’ attributed to the various remarks, Solidarity used the number of media reports as a metric to ascertain the unevenness in black vs white racism coverage in South Africa.

“According to our research, remarks by a person like Justin van Vuuren generated more media reports than Julius Malema’s ‘Slaughter all whites’ remark,” Mulder said.
