A lot of Americans say Donald Trump is racist against blacks but in Africa he is loved . Perhaps distance puts things in perspective?

he is outspoken
he is a fool at times
typical man
gives off a vibe of male domination
prosperity

He was not called racist until he was running for President and always the card that is played when convenient.

I have a friend who grew up in the US Virgin Islands and didn’t believe that institutional racism existed. He believed that perceptions from mainland US were based on people being soft.

And then he moved to the mainland when he was in his 20’s.

He realized he was wrong.

The irony to the “fake news” QAnon claims is that news cycles do distort reality... but more often than not the bias in media hides the realities of government and society gone amok.

They tell a beginning artist to step back from the art they create while creating to have a better perspectives. Some areas can be focused upon after a better look. I do not know Africa's news source, nor all the details of Trump's aspect, but we all know 1%ers and politics [b]can[/b] hide more than needs be.

Perhaps they don’t listen to the lying media and liberals that call him racist because they know it works .
They called GW Bush a racist too.
But he saved more lives in Africa from aids than any other person .
Ask Bono from u2

Charlie Chaplin once said that physical comedy is only funny if the camera is too far away for the audience to see the pain on the actors face. Same concept here I think.

So we're deleting posts that are critical of Trump then?
Pureblossom · 22-25, F
Not Trump just Africa . Outsiders tend to have different ideas about what Africa is actually like . For starters there is a huge misconception about white Africans not having a good relationship with the black ones ect @basilfawlty89

@Pureblossom maybe so, but it's also not false that you get far right wing Afrikaners who hate black people. I should know, I have them in my extended family. Not all Afrikaners are like that, but some are. Just like not all Southerners are, but some are. The far right support Trump. I assure the rest of the population of South Africa don't like Trump. I should know, I live here. Most of us think he's a racist clown. And when a South African is telling you something is racist, that definitely means you should listen, because we kinda have a history of it.

Guess what I’m every family there are people that don’t like the opposite race or even people from other countries who are the same skin colour so chill on the generalisation . You have no idea what goes on in Africa it is the second largest continent in the world as in the planet @basilfawlty89
