Van Niekerk incident the result of Naspers monopoly

E-mail Print PDF

The recent incident during which a fistfight between Mr. Abel Malan and Prof. Anton van Niekerk of Stellenbosch University ensued, can be directly attributed to the division and intolerance which the Naspers monopoly has sown among Afrikaners.

The immediate cause of the incident was an article by Van Niekerk in which he heaped historical moral guilt and calumny on Afrikaners and whites. Moreover, in the article Van Niekerk is guilty of revisionism as to the totalitarian system of communism that existed in Eastern Europe and which has been condemned as a "stain" by the world community, as well as several recent Russian presidents.

Also because of its betrayal of the Afrikaans language community, the University of Stellenbosch and its lecturers have become a symbol of the moral and intellectual decay of a certain Afrikaner elite, opportunistically siding with the current rulers. The school of journalism at this university produces the type of ideologically blinded, anti-Afrikaner hacks who afterwards abuse their positions of power at the Naspers monopoly to attack and libel ordinary Afrikaners in the name of their neo-Marxist ideology.

Both the University of Stellenbosch and Naspers have again and again demonstrated their intolerance towards views deviating from their nonsensical dogmas. Van Niekerk's article was a piece of propaganda unworthy of any true intellectual or academic and the uncritical publication thereof in Beeld and Die Burger suggested that the umpteenth orgy of white guilt and a "psychological operation" against the long-suffering Afrikaner population was underway.

Although Mr. Abel Malan's lack of self-control cannot be justified, it exemplifies the general frustration felt by Afrikaners in relation to the media and academic Gauleiters of a sadistic regime. And here, for the edification of the half-literate word processors streaming out of Stellenbosch's mind factory, we mean "sadistic" in a psychopathological sense.

There is a real possibility that violence between Afrikaners could escalate further than mere fistfights, as long as the pernicious media monopoly in Afrikaans persists. The most profitable newspaper in Britain has just been closed due to the unethical behaviour of its editorial staff.

Neither Naspers's profitability nor the life-long appointments of Stellenbosch's radical professors provide them with carte blanche to continue with their provocation and libellous attacks upon Afrikaners.
