Oh? Is that why they enslaved any sub Saharan Africans they found?

If we can collectively hold all black people for the looting, we can hold all white people responsible for apartheid?

Tell me you have no black friends without telling me you have no black friends :p

All whites are held collectively responsible for apartheid. Ask the ANC, EFF, BLF and read the threads by MyCadre on MyBB.

Bro, there were people working in the shops as they were getting looted, store owners and customers of all races affected by the looting.

Who did the looting? Something you're very reluctant to answer...

Where did the language of Zulu originate? It's a distinct language, just like Afrikaans is distinct from Dutch. You cannot claim it originated in another country if there is no proof that people in that other country ever spoke Zulu.

Zulu is a member of the Nguni languages. Sotho/Tswana is a distinctly different language.

Don't be a p*es.

I'm the reason you're even talking about this lol

What's trolling is thinking that Afrikaans which is like 90% Dutch, is somehow an indigenous South African language.

90% Dutch? Does it have a Dutch grammatical structure? Speak Afrikaans in The Netherlands and you will be asked if can speak English. Ever been there?

Why did you call me a cat in Dutch? Or did you mean female genitalia in Afrikaans? Oh, sorry, it's the same language according to you...

From what I understand SA has about 35 indigenous languages, some even say that SA English could be considered indigenous. The idea that Afrikaans is indigenous but Zulu is not, makes zero sense.

I had a chat with someone on twitter about the whole race thing recently and the discussion basically ended with him saying that every black person has experienced racism first hand but he does not know of a single white person not on the internet who has.

At that point I decided the discussion is no longer worth my time because it was simply another way of saying "black people can't be racist"

I also realised that even if every black on white racist incident was reported to the police nothing would be done and only the maroelamedia would report on it.

Slowly but surely white people in SA are being dehumanised.

Hey if it were up to me, all other languages would be outlawed and we'd all be speaking English at all times.

Nope. Looks like the great new yawn has indoctrinated you:

The Niger-Congo hypothesis developed by Joseph Greenberg on Bantu languages state that the Bantu originated in West Africa, the Cameroon, and migrated across the the Congo basin into Southern and East Africa.

Bantu peoples is used as a general label for the 300–600 ethnic groups in Africa who speak Bantu languages. They inhabit a geographical area stretching east and southward from Central Africa, across the African Great Lakes region and down into Southern Africa.

Some of the people from West Africa traversed from the Congo or Niger Delta Basin to become the main inhabitants of East and South Africa. They migrated slowly, such as in small groups and in the process of traveling they became known no longer as West Africans, but rather the Bantu, which translates as “The People.”

The Bantu-speaking peoples migrated from Western Africa-- near modern-day Nigeria-- southward and eastward, spreading out across all of the southern half of the African continent. This migration started at about 1000 B.C.E., and ended at about 1700 A.D. although that date is still in dispute.
