Am I reaching? (Nelson Mandela related)

[Lavish]

On the radio i keep hearing them praise the fact that nelson wasnt bitter or mad for how he was treated by white people...even moreso then them praising him for the extent of which he faught against apartheid. almost to say, "see, he wasnt mad at us "

am I reaching? or do you think theres an underlying reason for that?

 

[Swiggy]

People wanna dikkride anything that could make them feel good about life at any moment. Something this monumental, they gonna find some way to add themselves positively to this story. I'm trying to find the Mexican connection so my mama can

White folks will forget when it's time to lay Paul Walker to rest

alot of peole opposed apartheid even in south africa, the reason why :mandela: is a great man is because after all he went through and was released there could have been civil war , thousands if not millions whites and blacks could have died or been slaughtered but he bridged the gap and preached reconciliation and forgivness

I meant to the extent that he did...going to prison for 27 years for what he believed in etc....he's done alot for SA, but it seems they more impressed with him not being upset at how he was treated.

ok. but you still havent answered my question. based on your responses I assume you see nothing wrong here, and you feel im reaching.

personally im more impressed by what he has done for SA and the extent in which he would sacrifice his life for the betterment of his country.

white people hate having fingers pointed at them, so them prasing him not pointing fingers makes sense to me.

No you're not reaching. Whites are disgusting, and will rewrite history in any way that will make them seem like humans. We all know white man is the devil. It's pretty much common knowledge.

Nelson was a better man than me, because if I was in his shoes it would have been pure fire and brimstone in biblical proportions by the time I got released from prison.

Niigga of course they will take that route. White people will do anything to absolve any blame for ANYTHING negative that they've done in history.

Im watching a news network where they showed a cac saying. "Lets not forget that Nelson Mandella created an armed militia group in the 60s..."

Of course he did because police killed like 70 UNARMED, PEACFUL protestors. What the fuuck was he supposed to do?

cacs forever caccing...

whites will always rally behind the "turn the other cheek" blacks after they're dead.

 

[Chill]

You aren't wrong and neither is he, what's important is that he stuck with his beliefs and made progress with them.

Don't question yourself considering the damage that's been caused from what they've done and to constantly lie about it.
