    That is correct, and for clarification farms. Is it right, most certainly not. Is it something that has reached the level that the US should take action on? Nope.

    Action? You mean like sending in ground troops or droning targets? Certainly not. How about sanctions? Ehh...probably not yet. What about a strongly worded letter, a visit by the SoS to the PM (or whatever they have down there)? How about it not being shrugged off because they haven't suffered sufficiently to exact the appropriate amount of flesh to balance the scales?

    Robert Mugabe is not the head of state of South Africa.
    Or Zimbabwe. What does that have to do with blacks, or African-Africans WANTING whites to come back after Mugabes failed policies? Do you believe South Africa will be different? You’ve travelled, this I know, have you been to SA? I have! It was once beautiful and thriving, I wouldn’t take my ass back there for nothing now.

    Do you believe that the people currently calling the shots at the ANC were ever oppressed
    Odds are yes. I doubt they are all under the age of 27. A 40 year old today would have been 13 when it ended. Plenty old enough to have been and remember being oppressed.

    I'll ask this question again, because it seems it is being glossed over. Are South African white being discriminated against at anywhere approaching the same level as South African blacks during apartheid?

    They're about to be if they own farmland

    “The time for reconciliation is over. Now is the time for justice. We must ensure that we restore the dignity of our people without compensating the criminals who stole our land.” -Julius Malema speaking before the SA parliament

    Maybe my reading comprehension has failed me. Is my understanding that the government of SA passed a law that would force the white folks off their property incorrect? Or are you saying it's just a matter of degree? That the oppression hasn't reached an actionable limit yet? That we should ignore it for a few more decades or that until the requisite number of people have been deprived?

    I thought it was moral relativism; that their oppression was OK because the "whites", not those specific people but people of the same melanin profile, had supposedly done worse

    They're being discriminated against far more than blacks where in Rhodesia, that I know for a fact.

    Unless you’re a racist living in the past, wanting reparations, why does it matter what level it approaches? Apartheid is ****ing GONE, ITS DONE, OVER?

    Seems like it would be appropriate for Western governments to denounce such actions.

    Assuming this were meant to be a "were," this comment is laughable.
