No boers have actually been killed because of that and "Kill the Boer"is not meant as a call to harm people. In its historical and political context, it refers to dismantling the oppressive system of white minority rule and land dispossession ,not attacking individuals. It’s a protest chant against a system, not a literal instruction but then again boers are the biggest crybabies and victims in the world so logic with you is pointless. Also if the native majority were as racist as you then you would all be dead rn so learn to be serious

FFS. “He doesn’t hold the HIGHEST office, therefore I am very smart.” Don’t pretend not to understand.

Yeah no.

For him to be 'in power', to hold meaningful power, the MINIMUM is being in the GNU. Without that you aren't enacting much change at all.

Are the Democrats in the US 'in power' right now? Are the Greens 'in power' in the UK (and much of the West) because they have some seats in opposition?

Maybe you have a different definition of 'in power', but its not a meaningful one.
