Genocide is too strong a word, but South African white population does have legitimate grievances by now. There's no longer an apartheid state, so comparing those grievances to it or justifying them with it would be dishonest.
Do they? Because every time I've looked at the issue, it seems like they manufactured a crisis out of a small number of unrelated home invasions
Are we sure about that because I've never really been able to get a unbiased viewpoint. You know because they're all racist over there as like the default position. Even if they're not unpleasant people they're kind of just casually racist, it does mean that whatever they say has to be taken with several hundred kg worth of salt
There are official stats.
I know. This includes everyone in SA seemingly, though, not just whites.
What stats you haven't provided any stats, you just said the had legitimate grievances and then didn't elaborate.
There are South African official crime stats. That's an answer to "what stats".
Neither did you provide any data, somehow in the Internet it's always only the other side that should do it. That's an answer to "you haven't provided any stats".
I might look up something later, no earlier than Saturday.
You simply don't understand how discourse works. You made a claim so you're the one that has to provide evidence for the claim. It is no one else's responsibility to go and find evidence for a claim you made.
I don't have to provide evidence because my question was asking you to provide the evidence, I did not say I have evidence to oppose your claim.
This is based on your own assumption of what I think of discourse or why I said what I said.
I also said "no earlier than Saturday".
Fine feel free to just delete your comment until you can be assed to justify your racist comment.
You seem to have a misconception that you are sort of a gentleman to whom others have to justify something. There's such a thing as unneeded waste of time.
