Like I said, I'm not racist, I'm a culturalist.

Mody does a great job of pointing out the failures of South Africa.
Feel free to skip through, but don't pass the 8:45 time stamp.

Some white guy was in some African country and he took out his dictionary. Blacks around him were surprised he did not now all the words as they did in their language. Their language was very limited.

Also, who was in SA first, whites or Africans? There were some indigenous Africans but very few as the land did not support many without modern tech. I recall the locals were called the Koy or Coy people or some such. Small in stature. More powerful taller Africans from the north moved south.

The whites brought good agriculture and tech and improved the standard of living. Then many Africans from elsewhere in Africa moved to SA. Better  to be a second class citizen in SA than live where they came from. Later they changed their minds about being second class citizens.

And now they're back to where they started, grass huts and no laws.
