South Africa isn’t a threat to America, no, but living in a post-apartheid, nominally non-racist country is super uncomfortable for rich, white racists. They perceive the situation as them being in danger, and this has triggered the closest thing to empathy that you’ll ever get out of DJT.
It’s not empathy. He wants a demographic shift.
Wait- sorry, what’s the non-racist country here?
Nominally non-racist. Back during apartheid, South Africa was definitely racist. Now apartheid is over, everyone there, regardless of race, is supposed to be equal.
That doesn’t mean that racism doesn’t exist there, just that it’s no longer encoded into law, and indeed the opposite might be encoded, regarding hate crimes and the like.
Never been, huh?
To quote a guy I saw shouting at his white boss in an alley in Cape Town a few years ago: “Look, you’re a fuckin’ racist, hey?”
Tell me more about how not racist it is there. I’d love to hear it. And how there’s low to no income disparity that certainly doesn’t track ethnic demographics. I’d love to tell my South African friends all about it. And how the laws definitely, for sure, are super egalitarian and don’t do like they do in the US where stolen wealth isn’t locked up into the hands of the “right people.”
Do you not know how to read?
Not once do the words “never been” appear in that person’s comments. You’re arguing against something they didn’t say
Because I’m suggesting they’ve never been to South Africa and yet are telling me all about it.
Fun fact… You don’t have to visit a place to know their history.
You need to look up what the word “nominally” means, it completely changes the meaning of the sentence you’re objecting to.
My bad. I used a double negative, which clearly confused you.
“That doesn’t mean that racism doesn’t exist there” means “racist behaviour almost certainly still goes on there”.
I can try to break this down to words of just one sound if you like, but to do that might be too mean, and it’s hard to write like this as well.
That’s like a pot calling a kettle the N-word.
Sorry, I’m confused: how so?
Please copyright this phrase and put it on t-shirts
Because it is. Good work, Cyril.
They’re probably bringing them in to be ICE goons
Oh my god. He’s right
I mean yes hes promoting for a conspiracy theory and treating whites as the only true refugees.
Trump is not uninformed in this case. He’s just a fucking liar.
“South Africa’s president calls out Trump’s racist policy to offer refuge to white Afrikaners”
