This is all fine. I just wanted to further clarify my viewpoint, which is not very well-founded on South Africa. I did not intend to criticise you. Since it is our first or second dialogue here, it is not always easy to truly understand, what the other participant means. Therefore I usually write detailed answers.

I said I do not stigmatise people, because I do not want to render premature judgments. This is easily declared to be one-sided, racist etc. and this is not at all the level on which I intend to have my discussions. But I think that I understand the general mechanisms which take place in many societies, especially the toxic ones.

And I definitely agree, that most of the crimes in South Africa happen within the black community. There is also a very sad quote at the end of *Tainted Heroes* by Strike Thokoane: 

>'But how black people deal with each other now... How children as young as two months are being abused and raped by people who are much older, how they are maimed every day you open the newspapers, you watch television. This is what you see and it is not happening in the white community. If it does, somebody is sick, but we are sick as a society, a larger group. We are sick in the manner in which we do things.

I consider it to be an essential element of egalitarianism, Marxism etc. that every blade of grass has to be cut at the same length. There is no room for individual success, self-realisation and basically creativity as well as for self-responsibility, personal independence and freedom.

Instead of enjoying the success of people of the own hometown or region all together, learning of each other, trying to cooperate, learning to be self-responsible, people are thinking about how to cut the grass the most efficient way, which is fundamentally wrong.
