So you’re assuming his motives based on his skin color? There’s a word for that.


We can assume his motives by making note of his actions and comparing how well they match up to his words.

Often his actions are directly opposite of his words.


point out in my sentence where the bad man hurt you?


The previous VP engg of twitter was also a white guy from south africa. (mike montano)


How much time have you spent in South Africa?

When I was there I never talked to a single British or Afrikaans that I would ever describe as white supremacist, or even racist. Everyone of them at some point voted ANC, mostly in Mandela‘s time.

However, going through Durban, I saw the dead remains of Namibian immigrants who were just necklaced in a almost 100% black area. Almost all the murder or violence there is white aggressors. I was forced out of Escort one day for being white. And our car was attacked by bottles and rocks in Mooi River, very presumably because we were the only white people around, although I didn’t ask specifically.

Slandering someone you don’t know as white supremacist because they are a South African white, is really messed up.


Can’t edit.

Almost none of the violence in Durban was white aggressors.


Is there much of a difference?
