![[CW: Racism] South Africa’s president unambiguously sides with Palestine. Sympathizers of settler-colonial state respond predictably.](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/8c19cc38-2f1a-4250-b06d-c35622ff7b67.jpeg){kind=link}
They can’t help themselves, can they.
Real quick, someone tell me what Israel was doing in Africa during the Cold War? And what they’re doing now by sterilizing African Jews and having IDF train American police departments? Gee, sure is curious why their supporters seem to match this rhetoric.
I sure hope more Western chauvinists show their asses like this. I’m sure it will go well with the people of color in the West as well as all the African nations they’re trying to appeal to (lest they get seduced by big bad China).
So you think this justifies the incredible racism shown in the original post? None of this is relevant to what was posted.
No, I don’t. Yes, it’s relevant.
The post spreads awareness about a racist South African political leader, and I’m spreading awareness about another one.
So… whataboutism?
Really struggling to see any point here beyond “Oh there’s racism directed at South Africa? Well here’s a racist from South Africa!”
“Racist” is when you side against the country that supported the same Apartheid regime that oppressed you.
In any case, I’m not surprised in the least the same people expressing concern for South African “white genocide” also back Israel on this.
