Best to ask your question on hexbear or lemmygrad. I'm sure that there are at least a few people there that will have answers for you

Can confirm. Prices of decent houses in Cape Town are fucking ridiculous, not even to mention the absurd prices for tiny flats.

Oh man, thank you for this. Thank you for putting these thoughts into words.

I've said before on lemmy that i struggle to express what i mean and feel, so people like you who can are highly appreciated by people like me when you do so.

Lol so this comment is just to let you know of my appreciation, I know i can upvote to show it too.

Thanks for the recommendation! I've always been more of a book person so the recommendation is highly appreciated.

lmao he has to be an imperialist shill right? I can't believe that someone would be that clueless, and still be insistent on staying that clueless after being spoonfed multiple public sources

Cool story bro

Then the news is probably not as boring as you claim because it caught your interest enough to read and comment, and reply

Then why are you reading and commenting on this post?

But Melkath never even mentioned jews. He specifically said Israelis throughout his post. And he pretty clearly compared the Israeli people to nazis, not what you said, which was comparing jewish people to nazis.

It feels like you're doing exactly what the German government is doing, which is equating criticism of Israelis and of Israel to antisemitism.

Thanks, being called a tankie didn't bother me. It just took me by surprise because i wasn't even saying anything untrue.

Honestly I'm learning more from hexbear and lemmygrad than lemmy.world, amongst others. I had a vague idea about the geopolitics and history of certain areas but the posts and discussions on there really shed a lot of light on that. And a lot is freely available information if you want to search for it. On the other instance they'll rather spit venom at each other than exchange information.

Ok, not everyone is bad on lemmy.world, but I've come across the most hateful, asinine users there.

No, you can't give context. China bad! /s

On a serious note, reading a while back about what happened during the opium wars was horrendous. And also finding out that South Korea was governed by murderous fascists until very fairly recently, while the US was supporting the South Korean regime was also an eye opener to me.

South Africa places Israel’s actions since October 7 in the context of a history of “apartheid, expulsion, ethnic cleansing, annexation, occupation, discrimination, and the ongoing denial of the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination” … “during its 75-year-long apartheid, its 56-year-long belligerent occupation of Palestinian territory and its 16-year-long blockade of Gaza.” Notably, South Africa points out that Israel has been carrying out extreme violence against Palestinians even before Hamas’s actions on October 7 (which it unequivocally condemns but notes cannot justify genocide).
