Murder Stats are going down though....

How lovely for them.Fangle wrote: Tue Nov 03, 2020 4:19 pm All I know is anecdotal. My cousin, Charles Hart, who I played with when we were children, was killed on his farm a few months ago, and hacked to pieces. My brothers are nervous and so have bought seaside houses a couple of hours away, and will shortly be moving there. And they are getting rid of their dairy herds and changing to just grazing cattle for beef which takes less supervision.

But then I have a Muslim wife so I'm probably committing white genocide or something.

However fucked up gangs of psychopaths committing horrible racially motivated murders is not genocide, as horrific as they are. I don't think for one instance that DAC or OS would consider a genocide to have occurred against Catholic Northern Irish in the late 70's and early 80's, yet acts such as those are exactly what the likes of the Shankill Butchers carried out.
Genocide is the organised and systematic extermination of a people. Even if you are to broaden that definition to the callous disregard for human life while profiteering off of their deaths (so as to include the likes of the Irish and Ukrainian famines in your definition) you would still be a million miles away from entering the ball park.
Add to that though the unquestioned association of White Genocide theories with the most fucked up white supremacist, extremely racist, neo-nazi fucking fucktards (which I don't for a second think DAC is unaware of) and you're dwelling in the utter depths that humanity has ever plunged into!
It's a racist rallying call - as I stated right when I started commenting on this - there's no fucking grey area with shit this extreme!

Umm, no I didn't but if you'd actually read my post before rushing to call me an idiot, which is ironicBig Nipper wrote: Tue Nov 03, 2020 2:01 pmYes, Jambanja explicitly pointed out that white farmers are being systematically murdered in SA, and yet Openside tacitly embraces this bullshit notion. I would implore the Scottish sap to come spend a few days in a Bethelsdorp or Macassar and say with a straight face the white farmer is in more danger than those living in these gangster hellholesJM2K6 wrote: Tue Nov 03, 2020 1:55 pmThe first sentence of my reply should help. You also earlier said you were thinking that it's not racist for saying that white farmers are seemingly being systematically killed. You hadn't acknowledged the fact that that's actually a bullshit assertion to begin with. You can surely understand why people are still trying to get through to you when you equivocate like that.Openside wrote: Tue Nov 03, 2020 1:50 pm

Sorry if I’ve misunderstood this but are you saying that by DAC saying that white farmers are seemingly being systematically killed, ergo genocide, he is racist for saying so?

That's a new height in apologism. Congratulations, that's really set the bar quite high.
No apologism, that's in your head. I treat all religions with same degree of contempt.
Correct, you don’t need to attend church of any denomination to be a decent person. Religion seems to be concerned with changing other people, it should only be concerned with changing yourself!!

There isn't complete proportionality. You are correct that it's a relatively similar rate to the general murder rate in SA, but the difference is that a high % of those murders are gang-related and between South Africans of the same race. Farmer murders are usually black people killing white people. Genocide is a very strong term that I wouldn't use, but there's a cross-racial element in these killings that isn't there in most cases.JM2K6 wrote: Tue Nov 03, 2020 1:45 pm There's no evidence to suggest that white farmers are being murdered at a rate higher than normal (statistics suggest the opposite, and it's heading downwards). "White genocide" is a long standing white supremacist conspiracy theory.

As for coverage, media will always cover what's in their audiences' immediate sphere of interest more than incidents from further afield.

Coalition of the willing including NZ, Aus, UK, France have pursued wars all across the planet against islamists. Often on very sketchy grounds. Why can't they assist one of the poorest countries in the world just like they assisted the Yazidis and the Kurds? NZ and Aus SAS were very willing in Afg, Libya and Iraq surely they could lend a hand.sockwithaticket wrote: Tue Nov 10, 2020 6:38 pmTa.
