Cliff knows this. that's why he makes the big bucks.tell me about it. so had DJ Fresh said it, would the backlash have been different?of course. it's the same shtick used by every "controversial" white columnist in SA. they speak "honestly" and with "logic" and black people respond "emotionally", "irrationally" and with the "race card".South Africans are polarized so easily for the sake ratings/selling papers/building brands, it's almost as amazing as it is boring.sometimes i really wonder if we care. for example, the people castigating or defending Manto, how much time have they spent actually trying to do something about the AIDS pandemic?isn't this supposed to be about HIV/AIDS to begin with, not whether or not we should respect dead people?or is that just me?
