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
And the (((Eternal Anglo))) were behind them...
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
Insatiable Anglo Wanderlustblut
@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

@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.
Yes, they DO have their own currency. I brought some back home. @ophiuchus
My grandfather went to South Africa back in the 70s. Very interesting stories.
Which part did he go? Do you remember? @ophiuchus
All through it. Mostly Johannesburg, also visited some place called Sun City out in the desert.
There is so much to dissect in a country like that. I can only say that it will broaden and sustain your perspectives
It makes you realize the dire necessities @ophiuchus
In everything that we do
And when I talk to people from other countries. . . Like my friends in London . . They have the same sense of urgency, nearly, as people in South Africa.
I think Americans will wait until the heat is so hot that they have no choice
Americans are comfortable. WE are comfortable
Anyone with a sock plz jump on this
I can certainly vouch for how dire the situation is in London
There are too many distractions right now for the majority of Americans to wake up
Beer, football, clubbing, etc.
