"Mckinsey knowingly incited and spread racial hatred for their personal gain, and pushed the idea of "white monopoly capital" so that the ANC could leverage that as a political point."
I'm sorry I don't agree.
I don't see the evidence for this - marketing, PR, communications is not something McKinsey has any core competencies in - moreover, in the long run it works fundamentally agains their interests, after all they basically represent the interests of highly vested, oligarchic, Western interests.
"have been responsible for corruption of the previous president Zuma"
Fully disagree.
---> Zuma is responsible for Zuma's corruption
And Gupta is a party to that.
McKinsey is the most peripherial player, and it seems they got kind of duped and eventually bailed.
If S. Africa wasn't so corrupt, they simply would not have paid McKinsey.
This is is the story of a corrupt and dysfunctional region - not a story about McKinsey.
Any organization at any scale doing business in such a place will get caught in these tentacles.
