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".

    Mortadella is a derogatory Brazilian term used to describe supporters of the Workers' Party and the political left in general. This term originated due to a far-right conspiracy theory which claims that Mortadella Sandwich, a common snack among the country's working classes, was distributed to PT militants when they took part in movements organized by the party as payment or to buy votes.

      I do think the brazilian chuds should run with "neither feed nor pay your armed forces" actually. Like they got my full support there, that is a very good idea

      A mortadella sandwich would get my vote...

      Also is so obvious that the right wing is just being derogatory and or racist with these narratives of "they're buying votes with "<insert cheap popular foodstuff>!" If that actually was the case, all they'd have to do is also provide cheap popular foodstuff, but no it's because their ideological basis and practical actions drive people away and the other group actually cares about people enough to feed them.
