Yes, many people in South Africa are still so racist that they do the fried chicken stereotype thing and insinuate that this is a tactic that black majority political parties use to “buy votes”.

    Welcome to election time in South Africa. Racists and scratched white liberals become extremely unhinged at this time when black people won’t vote for the political party they want them to vote for, and they cannot paternalise black people. They then blame their political losses on black majority political parties like the ANC buying votes with fried chicken and t-shirts. Instead of doing introspection and realising that there is no way a white liberal political party will win an election in South Africa, and that to appeal to the majority of the country, you have to stop being racist.

      “ Racists and scratched white liberals” why did you say the same thing twice?

        I mean there is a difference between political parties like the VF+ that directly campaign for Afrikaner homelands, and the DA which (badly) attempt to hide their racism. See Malcolm X’s speech on the wolf vs the fox.
