cant even get groceries without the cashier saying "give back the land!"

bitch i rent like everyone else!

you know...

i never realised johannesburg not to be german till quite recently

GIBS ME BACKS MY LANDS

I miss read 'groceries' as 'genocided'

cause, johannesburg really sounds german

As you do.

its dutch

well

dutch and german are quite similar

potatoe/potat-oe i suppose

if you understand german AND english, there is a big chance you will understand dutch

Sure, not 100% of it

but "burg" is just german for castle. And johannes is a german name

Hamcastle 😏

@Redneo I would say it is germanic not german

are many of you guys USA based?

ye

im german

EU based here (undisclosed country)

but i wager you may have figured that 😄

aids

this is going to sound really stupid, since i was born and raised in SA. What is it like being the majority race in a country

cause it fucking sucks here

@4AM_critter 🐉 sure

We still get shit for slavery here in America. Sins of the father basically.

@4AM_critter 🐉 but when i heard "johannesberg" in some movies or series, it allways seemed german to me.

that was like 400yrs ago!?

@4AM_critter 🐉 of course it isnt, but it sounds so german that i havened given it a second thought in my past

A bit less than that but yea. It's a wound that no one wants to let be so it never really heals.

apartheid ended on 94, still fresh for the black majority here but in 25yrs the gov has done NOTHING to help their people except loot and blame white people

instead of leaning on the apartheid crutch they call it white monopoly capital

apartheid... what did that really mean?

The dutch and the black souht africans of the time did work together from the very beginning

a policy or system of segregation or discrimination on grounds of race

like

I would say I have never considered myself of the nation majority. It is only later after I started travelling and noticed the culture clash after I came home. It has changed my opinion. I no longer support multi-culture. I am now in favor of integration, i.e. the assimilation of the host nation culture. @Taliz

the dutch were the first in south africa

not any blacks

nope
