"The opportunism was glaringly present."

On the one hand you accuse us whites of not "being there" on previous occasions, and here you complain that this participation is "opportunistic"

Pray tell me, what would these "whites" gain from the fall of Zuma? What is the objective of such "opportunism"? Are you buying the ANC fable, no longer quite as effective as it was in 2011, that the DA will "bring back apartheid"?

And, yes, I know personally a significant number of white persons that would be grateful for a return to apartheid, few of them on principle, many more simply because, as threatened, the new government has not held the reins as successfully as Jay Naidoo promised in 1991 when he wriote that the ANC was "ready to govern". I know white people who watch their workers earn them a living and I feel we have not made much progress. Then I remember that these old-school whites will be out of the picture in another 23 years, as I will be.

But the malice, not theirs, will remain.
