No, it's saying that you bringing up the past is not relevant to why the policies of the present are bad. You might as well be arguing that it's the whites turn to be disenfranchised even if it means worse conditions overall for everyone. Social justice as the expense of society.Not an argument there buddy, but blacks being incapable of ruling themselves in South Africa kinda has a shitload to do with their lack of opportunities in the first place.
I think blacks having come from the local tribal populations and the whites coming from more advanced nations had something to do with it as well. Yes, apartheid was wrong and served to maintain that dichotomy but the solution is not to try to pretend that you can reverse sweeping social conditions with the stroke of a pen. The race of a person should not matter as to how they are treated in either direction. Setting up such a system is the only fair and reasonable path forward for a country.
