        That's true. They are killing white farmers and seizing their land in South Africa, so racism is much worse there.

        "they" aren't killing white farmers. south africa has a crime problem, it's not just white farmers. more women have been killed in the last month than farmers in the last year. let's do some fact-checking before spouting propaganda.

        Racism in south Africa goes both ways...there's more prejudice against fellow Africans in S.A. than there is against whites

        As a white who lived in the DRC, I have to say that Africans in general is pretty racist towards themselves. I mean, in the DRC is was more like the people of West Congo were discriminated by the rest because they were way shorter and things like that.

        Lmaooo pictures from apartheid? Your using pictures form when people were violently oppressed and responded similarly, with violence after repeated calls for a peaceful end to said system were rejected, to argue reverse racism? Are you intellectually lazy or intellectually lazy?

        This is common knowledge that true racism is in RSA, the racism is structural as it was engineered by apartheid regime and its policies
