That genzedong subreddit has always been bad like this. I was excited to find another user from Africa there, and then they started going on about "anti white racism" and yeah...
The anti white racism in sa shit is all over Reddit, it’s out of control. If anyone mentions South Africa for any reason any where on Reddit at least one Redditor will show up like “too bad they’re just straight killing white people and taking their farms over there ⬆️4.6k”
Nah this guy was complaining about how he "couldn't date local women without being judged because he's the only white person there" which immediately set off my nonce and sexpat radar. Just disgusting
I hate to admit that this comes from personal exp, but that could just as easily be someone who looks up to older people and takes their wisdom as gospel. Very glad that behavior is behind me.
i really don't think it is, but it definitely feels that way sometimes. a lot of people there are allergic to theory and just think china = good; us = bad; so they base their takes around that instead of an ounce of Marxism. that way you get dogshit takes like the sub celebrating that the Chinese justice system sentenced a foreigner drug trafficker to death. like for real guys?
Makes sense. That kind of go s with what I was saying though: most of the posters are gen z (ostensibly), so even if the average age is more like 18, they don't have the life experience to develop the nuance in their worldview.
Like, this board largely (and correctly) thinks china = good; us = bad, but the belief is much deeper than merely that, so we can deviate from it where is violates our deeper reasoning.
It is a good rule of thumb. Yeah they got boomers there and stuff but them not being in a gentrocratic death cult kinda minimizes the number of times shit like that comes up.

This was months ago and I've not visited since

This is always hilarious to read. It's just not true. I live there, I know lol
I assume there’s an element of, “see the blacks are just as bad as us so we can’t be that bad” kind of cope going on with these protestations

I mean the average poster there is what, 14? Not a valid excuse but definitely a plausible explanation.

Big ole yike

You know, acab, but fair.

That’s weird, usually any mentions of anti white racism in genzedong are followed up by “good”
This was during a big struggle session a few months ago so I haven't checked it since then. It could have improved by now
ur full of shit
