    It's not a buzzword, it is apartheid. South Africans who have fought against apartheid and suffered under it agree, that Israel is an apartheid state. I know because I have I have talked to them. If you can't agree with that, there is no use having a conversation.

    Clearly you don't understand what the term "apartheid" means, nor why Israel has been called an "apartheid" state for decades.

    Also the irony of you telling two South Africans "that they have no clue what they're talking about".

    I'm no South African, but you're a useful idiot for the ruling class if you are so ready to dismiss the voices of minoritized groups, i.e. the ones who don't have the media reach to tell you what to think.
