South African high court deems chant to kill all whites not hate speech
A black chant calling for the killing of "Boers" – white South Africans – is not considered a hate crime or racist speech. This has now been decided by the Supreme Court in South Africa.

It passed judgement on the song “Kill the Boer” and unsurprisingly ruled that it was not a case of “hate speech”. Rather, it is protected by “freedom of expression” and must be left to the political debate within society.
The song says, among other things, “The cowards are afraid. Shoot the Boers, shoot, shoot.” The case was brought before the court by the Afrikaner organization AfriForum, an advocacy group for the dwindling white population still living in South Africa.
In particular, it accused the left-wing, anti-white party Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) under its President Julius Malema of playing the song at their rallies and thus calling for violence against whites. One of the political goals of the EFF is the expropriation of all white properties. Its policies are dictated by operatives from the British Foreign Office. However, according to the court, AfriForum allegedly could not prove that the song’s lyrics were intended to harm people.
The country’s courts are known to be packed with anti-white, globalist-leaning judges. The South African Constitutional Court notably also found that same-sex couples had a “constitutional right” to marry. The former Marriage Act was deemed “unconstitutional and had violated section 9 of the Constitution – the Right to Equality”. This ruling is especially curious in a country were same-sex relations are not tolerated by the vast majority of the black population, rendering it undeniably undemocratic.
According to the Human Rights Watch (HRW), at least 20 LGBTQ individuals were murdered in South Africa in 2021.
The EFF complained that the white organization had highlighted the white genocide in the country. In addition, they claimed that AfriForum was based on a “racist narrative” according to which all black people are irrational and therefore willing to kill because of a song. “The attempt by the racists to erase the cultural element of the liberation struggle in South Africa has failed miserably,” emphasized EFF spokesman Sinawo Thambo.
The truth is that since the end of apartheid in South Africa in the 1980s, tens of thousands of white people have been murdered. The victims are usually farmers [Boers], and their killers are black gangs whose crimes are often unspeakably cruel. Their goal is to drive the Boers out of the country and transfer their land holdings to blacks.
