That being said, I've met plenty of British South Africans who will also say that the country was much better off under Apartheid.
You missed what was obvious to everyone. It’s ok. Just say, my bad or something
If only the Boers won.
Things would be just as bad here if not worse if they outnumbered us ten to one as they do in SA.
In both countries, the blacks are waging a one-sided race war against the white population. The only difference is that in SA, where they have a numerical majority, they can afford to be more blatant about it.
OTOH...Afrikaners have been in what is now RSA, far longer than the majority of blacks living there now; many by several 100s of years!
Some ( who have a way out ) don't want to leave their adult children and/or grandchildren, who are unable to get out.
Others are just blindly stubborn, saying "THIS IS OUR LAND!".
And for the trillionth time....ALL AFRIKANERS ARE NOT FARMERS! And those who aren't farmers also deserve to be able to get out!
Calm down.
I’m not mad at you.
You missed it.
I’ve missed sarcasm too.
So which is worse...my not knowing what every single emoji means, or you chastising me, for NOT doing what I DID do?
I've always liked the movie Zulu, among other things, it's amusing to watch (hear?) Michael Caine try to do a posh upper class British accent rather than his typical Cockney.
It’s not anything you have to apologize for.
Why are you making such a big thing out of this?
You're confused or I am. LOL
I didn’t tell you to apologize.
Did someone else use you nic and post that to me?
Yes I did.
Saying my bad or oops is not an apology.
It’s dimply acknowledges a mistake.
You did nothing wrong in missing the sarcasm.
One needs to apologize for doing something wrong.
I’m beginning to think you are going through a manic episode.
Are you OK?
Rorke’s Drift...most Vuctoria Crosses ever awarded for a single battle, seven.
Victoria Crosses...you dimblewick!🫢
Yea, it was pretty flippant. I should have moved from the rust belt to DC based on my occupation but I had too much tying me to the hometown. As a farmer there is 10 times the connection. So I get it.
Oh good grief...please put away your child’s play psychiatrist’s bag; I’m fine, nothing is wrong with me, except for posters ragging on me and some who attempt to refute the FACTS that I post, buy using inaccurate to spurious info.
