    It’s bigoted to invade a county and extort them for labor because you believe the native population to be inferior.

      I know. It is also bigoted to say you’re not surprised by a white South African being racist. That’s like saying you’re not surprised by a black African American being a criminal.

          Yes it is. You’re making a judgement about both groups based on the colour of their skin

            If it makes you feel any better, I’m pre-judging Musk based on his bank account.

              Then it’s more like imperialist white South Africans, so judge away.

        Also, I wouldn’t frame it the way you framed it, but I don’t think it is racist to say “I’m not surprised by a Black American having a criminal record”. Not because Black Americans are predisposed to crime, but because they are targeted by overpolicing and system racism lmao.

        Edit: 1/7ish Black American Men have been to prison. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5996985/#%3A~%3Atext=We+estimate+that+3+%25+of%2CAfrican+American+adult+male+population.

        We had to invent a new term to describe the racism of white south Africans, they’ve earned a little suspicion.
