Mr Kleinhaus has come under scrutiny for antisemitic posts on social media, which have since been deleted.
Discussing one of these, he says he copied and pasted someone else's thoughts, and that he was being administered morphine as part of medical treatment at the time - though he admits this was not an excuse.
The 2023 post was made in a moment of anger, he adds, after he saw a video - not verified by the BBC - which purported to show some Jews spitting at Christians in Israel.
Mr Kleinhaus insists the comments were specific to one moment, and not a wider comment about Jewish people. "Even now, if I see any person going against my religion, I will speak up against it," he said.

There are some black Afrikaans too, but it makes for a better title for the journalist not to acknowledge them.
Added to that, if she can’t see the difference between trying to settle millions of Afghans (99.7% Muslim) in a predominantly Christian country & settling a group of Christian, almost entirely English speaking people in the US, I’m not that sure whether I respect her POV.

Oh please.
No more refugees, unless they are white supremacists!

What’s frustrating is you never see him answer any sort of challenging questions on it, at least in this country someone like Laura Kuenssberg asks you some probing questions.
With Trump it’s all a Fox News love in, let’s face it he would fall to pieces as he did in the us debate with Harris.

Afrikaans are not white supremacists, regardless of what the article would lead you to believe.
If you follow cricket, you might be familiar with Hashim Amla who is considered to be Afrikaan, yet is a Muslim of part Indian heritage.
They are however the group at the heart of south african apartheid and there are plenty of them among that group whos views havent changed much. My comment was deloberately hyperbolic to make the point.
The mindset behind the policy is clear as day.

The wrong people were in power. The Afrikaans were amongst those to be badly lead, manipulated to vote a certain way. Divisive policies & fear, control systems worldwide have always been manipulative. As an example, you can’t blame every German for what happened in WW2

Sorry, I could well be misinterpreting your words. But are you trying to say that white Afrikaners are as much victims as black South Africans etc were under Apartheid?

Not at all. I’m saying that they aren’t a racist group as such, & were heavily manipulated through division, fear etc to keep the status quo in power. I’m saying that a racist government doesn’t equate to a racist people per se.

But if someone votes for a racist government then that makes them racist as well? Doesn’t their vote give that racist politician credibility?
I’m totally and utterly ignorant of South African politics during that era? Were there more liberal ‘white’ parties at that time? Or were there only hardline parties and a little less so?

There was the Progressive Party, as far as I know most if not all others were outlawed.
The National Party, who brought in apartheid (literal meaning ‘Apartness or Separation’) played on the fear of black on white crime etc & promised to protect the white minority.
Crime was understandably high in SA due to lack of opportunity across the divide. A lot of what are now considered the original Afrikaans were giving the incentive of free land for farming to move to SA. This is when it was a Dutch colony in the 16/1700s. Obviously with this foot up, they were the minority, but owned a lot of the land.
I’m not up to date with the recent SA political situation, but it seems it’s claimed that this group is now having land taken from them etc, leading to the offer of relocation by the US

There is still a huge wealth divide between black and white citizens in South Africa that hasn't changed significantly since the end of Apartheid. The white minority ceded political power, but kept hold of all the money.

Crucially there is no evidence of thiis actually happening... the law allows compulsory acquisition of unused land. No examples of it being used as i understand it....

A more obviously biased (and evidence free) piece of opinion "journalism" would be hard to imagine.
It’s actually worse than I thought, there is evidence in that video of politicians telling a large group that it’s sometimes ok to kill etc
Are you saying that they are lying about all the farmers who have been killed? This is all new to me by the way, I haven’t been following the story or recent news in general
