I wouldn’t say that much. Everyone has 1970s/1980s corruption stories to tell, and after the old gov’t left...corruption was more or less out in the open. The one factor I notice is that skepticism is ultra-high, and it didn’t matter if you were talking to blacks or whites.
The one factor which isn’t openly talked about...tons of drug trafficking around Cape Town. Lot of cocaine/crack...opioids in 2019 had just begun to arrive there.
I was there for 3 weeks and found the nation to be confusing. We stayed for a week in at a Holiday Ibn where the Mabager was Black. The couple in the next room were Black.Taking our time we drove to Durban and stayed in a hotel that had the best accommodations and food that we’d anywhere. Blacks
and whites were observed at mealtimes.
