How do you shelter and brainwash your kids so much that they're actually afraid of poor people? I knew these gated communities were bad but the quotes from residents sound like satire. They are unfortunately not satirical.

    It's really weird. In the suburbs in South Africa practically every house has an electric fence, barbed wire, an alarm system connected to private armed security, metal gates and trellidoors, etc. As someone with none of that it's quite dissociating whenever I have to go in the suburbs and see these houses. And if that isn't enough, there are gated communities for the ultra rich too. It's quite a situation tbh.
