Yes, many people in South Africa are still so racist that they do the fried chicken stereotype thing and insinuate that this is a tactic that black majority political parties use to "buy votes".

      KFC and fried chicken are foods associated with dogwhistles against African Americans. Racists in general are fundamentally uncreative, so South African racists have borrowed this idea as well, so this is just them saying that the native Africans are too stupid and greedy to be allowed to vote, because they'll just vote for whomever offers them KFC.

        Well, I'd be more inclined to show up to their conferences at least. >.>
