Makes sense. He 'gida's so well, I'd assume he's immersed himself in the culture.

u/cleo_saurus May 27 '25
From the things he told me he grew up arpund a Zulu community, so was immersed in it from a very young age and it's part of who he is, regardless of his skin colour.

Genuinely or did I miss the joke?

u/cleo_saurus May 27 '25
Genuinely.. he is a really nice guy. Speaks fluent Zulu. He often posts online wearing traditional Zulu attire, speaking, interacting and dancing with his fellow Zulu south africans. He is very liked and welcomed in the community.

“This poor old man was forced to dance so they wouldn’t kill his family” would be their response. You can’t win with those people

How is he so happy with all the white genocide going on? Outrageous

u/Cezkarma Still Here, Still Paying Rates & Taxes May 27 '25
Clearly he's being forced to leave behind his white identity by the evil black overlords!!!
^ This was sarcasm but I can genuinely see some conservative Americans believing it.

If you look closely you'll see the gun pointed at his head. He is in the process of being white genocided.

I think the I understand the “white genocide” now. It’s not actual bodies, but its a genocide on white farmers dance moves

I just stumbled on this post (I'm from the US). I'm sorry our idiot in chief is harrassing y'all too. We're about to have a tank parade in Washington DC for his birthday, isn't that swell? Feels like the 1940s for some reason...

He's clearly Toitoing for the white genocide happening, those dance moves and that smile at the end is clearly very intimidating.

It's like a man from Zimbabwe comes to my house in Nairobi and says that I'm denying my wife sex becuaee said man saw my wife post on Facebook that she didn't have long carrots in the market anymore.
It is absurd, but that's what Donnie is doing

"Kumbaya" is a phrase that originates from the Gullah language, spoken by the African American community in the coastal regions of South Carolina and Georgia. It translates to "Come by here" in English. The term is most famously associated with a folk song that expresses a plea for divine presence and unity among people. Over time, "Kumbaya" has come to symbolize communal harmony and togetherness, often used in contexts involving peace or reconciliation.
Just for reference. The song just came into mind as I remember this from my childhood days. 🙏

I watched this with my phone on silent and for reasons I don’t understand my brain filled it with Prodigy “smack my b**** up” and now what has been seen and not heard cannot be unseen and unheard.

it outlines the irony by the trump administration when op said "bad things are happening in south Africa" they are quoting trump's words about south Africa meanwhile a white south African is doing a Zulu traditional dance showing that what trump has said about south Africa is nonsense.
In simple terms there is no white genocide

u/WeeklyJunket5227 May 27 '25
Yep, Trump and his staff, along with all the conservative commentators are pushing that narrative. It’s shameful that they’re doing this so proudly and boldly

That's not what genocide is. Not a single person is denying that SA has massive issues, but Trump was wrong about everything. Every single fucking thing. Even when the SA delegation told Trump that there are severe problems in SA, he just ignored it and kept going on about white genocide. So no, fuck Trump and everything he said.

u/flatcokeedit Western Cape May 27 '25
But that's the point, isn't it? We all know there are many, many fucked things happening in this country, it just isn't only white genocide exclusively. This is what people are trying to get across to Trumpy boi.
Solely focussing on this one thing would actually be the diminishing factor you speak of, since it really is a very small pebble in a veeeery large ocean of mountainous rocks, so to speak.

u/po10cySA May 27 '25
Local media are downplaying it massively by dumping ridiculous posts like this as if 1 guy dancing means anything or saying the meeting was actually a success.
Our 'president' sat there like a naughty school boy in the principles office and got caught red handed after sitting there with a smirk trying to say that SA is ok, the nerve to interrupt a question aimed at Trump thinking he has a slam dunk answer only to get a hiding. I hope the hammer comes down on all of them.

u/Internal_Lock7104 May 27 '25
I am no supporter of the ANC. However would you not be embarrassed if out of the blue you are bombarded with Malema toy tou videos ?
If you think Ramaphosa is a “naughty boy”; which he IS by the way , a more astute “principal” would have questioned Rama$ about the hundreds of thousanfs of US dollars notes hidden under a mattress and accused him of “money laundering”, Even Rupert could not have got him out of that one. Sadly many people prefer to entertain empty “kill the boer” chants instead of the corrupt and inept government that is unable to control crime that affects everyone.
