But many white people criticized the prosecution and sentence as highlighting what they called a double-standard, because black people including politicians have not been penalized for insults and threats of violence to whites.
All animals are equal....
“Specifically, she hurled the term kaffir,...so radioactive socially that it is often referred to as the k-word.”
I wonder if they have their own word for Polish people.
Ethnic cleansing is coming to South Africa.
First step was to make it unpleasant for non-blacks.
Next is legal camps.
Death squads is last.
Same playbook as Nazis.
In South Africa, the word was loosely used to refer to native South Africans. It was adopted as a derogatory term after 1948 when the Apartheid system was established. Under crimen injuria, the epithet kaffir has been actionable in the justice system of South Africa since 1976. In 2000, the South African parliament also enacted the Promotion of Prevention of Unfair Discrimination Act, which has among its primary objectives the prevention of hate speech terms such as kaffir. When describing the term, the euphemism the K-word is now often used instead of kaffir.
Kaffir has also been used to refer to an ethnic group in Sri Lanka, the Sri Lanka Kaffirs, who are partially descended from 16th century Portuguese traders and the slaves that they brought from their colonies in Africa to work as labourers and soldiers. Unlike in South Africa, the Sri Lankan Kaffirs do not consider the term offensive.
Yet very little coverage of white S.A. farmers being butchered...
Does her family own a farm or some land that can be stolen?
Just a small part of what they are doing: eliminating Whites, after taking all their money. Same thing happening here, but more slowly.
That having been said I have a couple of observations.1) I have recently seen a video (on youtube IIRC) of the *President* of South Africa singing,with others,a well known song among blacks in the country specifically celebrating that wanton murder of whites.I'll look it up and if I find it I'll post a link.2) South Africa is just about the most violent country on earth.They have a murder rate,per capita,that's something like 10 times what ours is (I'll look that up too).The overwhelming majority of these violent crimes are committed by blacks.
None of this necessarily justifies rude,insulting comments.But,IMO,it tends to show that racism goes both ways in that country and the racism shown by blacks toward whites all-too-often involves murder or threats of murder.
Also,I found the President of South Africa singing.He's the guy at the mic wearing the yellow shirt.I assume that the guys in camouflage seen dancing are either soldiers or police (South Africa's police are "national",not municipal/county/state like ours).
Take a hint, white people.
The top “black” political class in South Africa is driving the country to become the next Zimbabwe, and we all know how that went.
kaffir,
WOW! I’ve got lots of histories of the British Empire in which that word is used! Maybe I should burn those along with my H.p. Lovecraft and John Russell stories of the South Seas.
