Google it yourself. Still going on. Not sure why anyone would think the issue there was bullshit.

Farmer killed last month, and a couple months prior another was killed with a hammer. It's just not headline worthy if whites are the ones being victims of racism

I didn't say that. What I said was, How does that excuse what's currently happening?
Hint: It fucking doesn't. Quit auditioning for clown school.

People that get killed right now don't deserve it. They can't just leave their homes, where are they suppose to go, and why should they? People that kill them are bandits, who have no intention to even use the land they want to 'take back'

iirc, farmers are/were targeted regardless of color, but it's just that more white people are famers/landowners, and a "white genocide" narrative was spun as a result

Because the effects of apartheid are still being felt today.

A handful of white farmers getting killed over 6 months is very different from the epidemic of white families being slaughtered every day.

Its a terrible thing, but the narrative about it was so blatantly over the top.

A misguided sense of "payback" for colonialism is how Zimbabwe happened.

That doesn't make these killings excusable.
That doesn't make them understandable or "right" or "righteous".
It's brutal murder plain and simple, and there was no reason for bringing up apartheid other than trying to excuse the killings.

It makes them understandable in the fact that people who expected to thrive once apartheid ended and still were unable to secure generational wealth are taking out their anger on people who maintained generational wealth due to a racist system.

That doesnt make it right but theres no reason to pretend its unrelated.

It wasn't relevant to the discussion.
Nobody had asked "Why is this happening".
Nobody needed a history lesson.
The person who brought it up did so to be inflammatory, and no other reason.

I'm not saying "two wrongs make a right". I'm saying that the lingering effects of apartheid is why there is so much animosity from Black South Africans towards White South Africans.
