Excited to find the western chauvinists in this community.

Edit: Wow apparently the only people on chapo dot chat are whitees unaffected by and benefiting from their imperialism confidently declaring how the perpetrators are to be treated.
Y'all have some nerve

Edit 2:
ITT If you shoot a black kid in the back in downtown Baltimore I want nothing to do with you. If you perfarate an entire back family in Mogadischu or Baghdad that's ok, you did growth and spaces.

    Yeah but I'm trying to be aware of my privilege, and I think you can count the number of white people in South Africa that moved to the country post 1994 and live in what is considered an "informal settlement" (I really don't like calling towns that, but anyways) on less than 400USD a month on one hand.

    If you want my take on the military issue, I think leftists should mass organise to join the military for training if they are interested in that, unless they start banning communists or something. I'm not going to tell people in the USA how to do leftism or anything, as that would be extremely arrogant and ignorant as I don't live there and have little understdanding of how things are on the ground. So just discard my opinion if it's irrelevant. But please let me make fun of the goons that trained and supplied the apartheid troops, it's all I have left.

    Joke at the end there, I'm putting this here because I suck at posting

      I don't hold grudges too much, it's all good. I just thought it was funny that you were calling out Amerikkkans when white South Africans are probably the only people in the world that are on the whole more reactionary than white Americans. It's kind of a cope, like we can say "well at least in not some Afrikaaner trying to start an ethnostate in Orania

        Yeah your average white South African makes chuds look like saints in comparison, I learned that at during high school, it involved a few apartheid flag burnings (Yes some racist afrikaaners still hang them in their house or garage). Also I had to visit an orania compound (yes there is more than one now, it's an organisation) for work reasons a while ago, never felt more uncomfortable in my life. Best part was that they had POC security guards guarding the compound.

            Israel gave the apartheid government fighter jets and guns, and helped them test and create 16 nuclear weapons if I remember correctly, so checks out.
