Two different cultures of white folks
Boer vs. Afrikanners
And then the English
Sorry I must’ve gotten the two mixed up
Not too knowledgeable on that
Yes. Many people aren't aware. It's ok.
The most hardcore S African I know is English
Ahhhh
But that's anecdotal
Well . . .
I know that the Boers are a very conservative people and not in a good sense
Many of the Boers despise the history of the English in SA
The English sold them out
Worked with the Zulu tribes, etc
I know
The Boer wars were some of the worst cases of white-on-white atrocity in history
I agree
It's really dwarfed by the coming of Christianity imo but yes it was bad
The English put rebellious Boers in what were essentially concentration camps
Yes.... I've come to see this @Ald
Really makes you think
It took me literally traveling to SA to "see" this @Ald
Henry Haggard Rider’s Allan Quartermain novels are incredible depictions of Boer era Africa
And white encounters with natives
I like that passage. Many Irishmen fought w/ the Boers against the English as well... 🙂
I’d kinda like to visit South Africa some day
That’d be my 5th continent
@Ald Who is the most hardcore English South African that you know? Just curious

@ophiuchus I encourage you to go take a look. It's worth the knowledge gained and experience
@The Morrígan A friend of a couple years in my personal server
Ethnat pagan
Just go with the right people of course
@The Morrígan yeah going alone would be just. A bad idea.
Orania is nice to look at @ophiuchus
Nice people
I went alone. But I had a secured plan with connections at every stop @ophiuchus
Orania is really interesting. They have (or plan to have) their own currency as I understand.
Do not blame them for getting away from the Rand.
