Doesn't matter, it depends on the npa and how much political brownie points they score.
Hang on there citizen , are you sure you want to use any saying which may be said to denote the colour of something during a racially charged thread ?

I've spoken to a few wrestlers in the past and they get really upset by comments that "wrestling is fake". Their argument is that while the results are pre-planned, the knocks and blows which they take from the slams are real. The wrestling bodies usually also have a criteria to determine who gets to become champion based on popularity among the fans etc.
Which wrestlers?

Seriously though, Leon Schuster has done many movies pretending to be a black man speaking with some funny accent, Trevor has done the coloured thing, many other comedians has done the black politician accent, you have to dig very deep to be offended by this, let alone call it racism.
That schit won't fly in today's day and age...

Thanks but still none the wiser....

Genuinely curious as to why I'm supposed to give a shiat?

If people weren't permitted to say stupid shiat on social media, the various platforms would collapse overnight.

Stupid shiat is why they exist. That and the mouth-breathing consumers of the insipid content published there.

Jabulani22 pretends to be a black man all the time.

Not sure about him but there are actually a lot of far-right white people who create troll accounts, pretending to be black and promoting far-right attitudes about black people. I can't even count the amount of these I have come across, they used to spam the News 24 comments section which was probably a big reason why it had to be shut down.

True, but its really easy to spot them. They don't have a lot of brain cells. They all use the same language, arguments and made-up statistics (like 62% of SA voted for Anc.) as they all log into the Conspirator3000, getting their propaganda from BS Mountain. You can listen to someone's argument and immediately knows where he gets his fix.

Some of them even pay poor black folks to hold up signs with slogans like "Apartheid was better" for their photos to use online.

I once pawned Seriously for doing the same thing. Posted something here that the "black" guy supposedly said. Supposed black guy's only facebook friend was Steve Hofmeyer.
