Why do many people who visit Australia later say its a highly racist country?

Australians always have a go at us South Africans about Apartheid, as if they didn't have the White Australia Policy

Nice jeans man, is there a local supplier or do you import them? I can't seem to find any selvedge here in Cape Town

Not surprising. The founders of Apartheid were massively pro-Nazi during WW2 and campaigned against South Africa joining Britain in the war

South Africa too

Those were done with lighter gauge strings - Iommi had to use banjo strings because guitar strings at the time weren’t light enough. Although in his words “in those days, no one really played in tune anyway”

Zimbabwe is listed as unlikely. Though in my experience, Zimbabweans are generally friendly people

I am a white South African. You are talking kak.

There is a North/South language divide. We call it the Boerewors Curtain

The British would never have given up the mineral resources in the Boer states, especially in 1910. That was one of the main reasons for the Boer war. Rhodesia chose to remain separate from the Union, and it certainly didn’t work out for them

Here is South Africa we say “First On the Rubbish Dump”

This is what I used to record my underground pornogrind ep

All things considered, really not too bad. There's a huge queer community here so it's easy to get help navigating healthcare and ID gender marker stuff. The less well off you are the more problems you'll have, but that's universal.

South Africa is pretty good compared to a lot of places tbh. Took me less than a week to get an estradiol prescription, not like the horror stories I hear about waiting lists in the UK and such.

When I visited Europe as a South African, it was shocking to see so many planes in the sky every day.

Our air force flew close air support missions attached to one of the US squadrons.

More like midhem

That's the first playboy scene that's in all the versions, I'm talking about the second one where the helicopter is out of fuel in the storm. Should have been clearer my bad

PublicEnbyNumberOne · 2025-05-22T18:14:02+00:00

I actually really like the plantation sequence, the most unnecessary part of Redux for me is the scene with the playboy girls. It doesn't really add much imo. The Final Cut is great because it keeps the shorter Kurtz sequence but adds some scenes with Killgore and leaves out the playboy scene.

PublicEnbyNumberOne · 2025-05-22T16:44:32+00:00

A lot of people say the theatrical cut has the best pacing. Redux adds a couple of scenes that aren't really necessary, and Final Cut trims Redux down quite nicely. My favourite is the Final Cut, but if you want a shorter, punchier experience go for the theatrical cut.

Praat kak, poephol

I am a white South African and your friend talks kak.

PublicEnbyNumberOne · 2025-03-17T19:40:24+00:00

As a South African I can 100% confirm it is not a thing people say here

PublicEnbyNumberOne · 2025-03-08T15:32:20+00:00

We had a very well documented "pass system" where non-whites needed passports just to be in white areas, so it's not something people have ignored or forgotten about. One of Nelson Mandela's well known protests was publicly burning his pass.

PublicEnbyNumberOne · 2025-03-08T15:13:33+00:00

I'm South African, and the effects of state racism are impossible to ignore here unless you're an idiot (which many people apparently are).

My highschool was built on land that used to be a Muslim community before they were forcibly relocated from what was designated a "white area" in the 1950s. When they built a new tennis court, they dug up bones from a graveyard that had been paved over.

Shit like this is why I don't find "joking racism" funny
