        The white population of South Africa is facing genocide. Their parliament just passed a bill allowing for the unpaid seizure of land from white farmers. Hundreds of such farmers are murdered every year, without consequence. Racism is evil, regardless of the race of the racist.

        The land wasn't stolen. When Dutch settlers arrived, the land was unoccupied. There certainly weren't farms. Have you looked up what always happens when you seize land from farmers and give it to favoured groups? Zimbabwe? Venezuela? Ukraine? China?

        False. That is old, disproven apartheid era propaganda. The Dutch settlement began in 1652. Nguni tribes were present in South Africa from 1500, likely before. The Khoi and San tribes were resident there before both the Nguni and the Dutch.

        How is this possible? Black South African politicians are talking about literally killing White South Africans (not to mention expropriation of White owned land).

        The same land that was taken from black farmers and disproportionately given to white people during apartheid? Oh okay..maybe if white people would’ve kept their asses where they came from we wouldn’t be having these damn issues generations later

        Lmao your “kin” is the one who displaced the entire planet through colonization..so that sounds like “white people” issue. I honestly don’t feel sorry for them. Almost every war we have had has been because of white men in power..not do fun on the receiving end is it?

        These racists will never learn. They must know that their days are over, and they will have to accept people from all colors and races as equal and even better than them. Color does not mean superiority over others. Intelligence is color blind, and so is knowledge.

        It is you dear who deserve it more as you belong to the same racist mindset whose sun will set soon for ever. Be fair to others. I am living in a really free country that protects my freedom & I am proud of my freedom and my country.

        Your response is impressively foolish. You made clear that you think only certain people entitle to freedom. I have no idea why you'd call a defense of freedom racist unless you are used to crying racism.
