Is south Africa also a democracy then?

[u/The100thIdiot → u/almighty_darklord]

Yes, although not the same type.

Do you not have access to Google?

Ok great. End of discussion. You think apartheid south Africa is a democracy. That's all I need to know.

Or will you bend over backwards like a pretzel trying to explain how apartheid south Africa is actually a great democracy with no apartheid if you just squint and ignore everything that happens there

[u/The100thIdiot → u/almighty_darklord]

Are you living in the past?

South Africa ended apartheid in 1994. I remember celebrating it.

[u/almighty_darklord → u/The100thIdiot]

So you're ancient? Then you must know I mean when I say is SA a democracy. If you have more than two neurons to rub together you might just get what context mean.

Question still stands. Is APARTHEID south Africa. A democracy?

[u/The100thIdiot → u/almighty_darklord]

So you're ancient?

Older than the pyramids.

Then you must know I mean when I say is SA a democracy

Not one to make dangerous assumptions, I shall and did take your words at face value.

If you have more than two neurons to rub together you might just get what context mean.

I wouldn't recommend rubbing neurons together. It isn't good for them. Yes, I understand what context means. Shame you didn't provide any.

Is APARTHEID south Africa. A democracy?

APARTHEID South Africa no longer exists.

[u/almighty_darklord → u/The100thIdiot]

APARTHEID South Africa no longer exists.

Uhuh. But was it a democracy. History doesn't get erased if you don't like it. And south Africa still suffers from the effects of apartheid and will for a long long time. I'd appreciate it if you stop dodging a simple yes no question

[u/The100thIdiot → u/almighty_darklord]

But was it a democracy.

No.

See, if you use the right words (even if missing the punctuation), you may find it easier to get the answers you want.

[u/almighty_darklord → u/The100thIdiot]

Great. So apartheid doesn't go hand in hand with democracy. So why do you call Israel a democracy.

If you want to say the same bs of it's not technically Israel 🤓 because the illegal settlements aren't on Israeli soil by some definitions. When there are cars marked Palestinians and can't go everywhere and Israeli cars that can damn well drive into gods house and the idf would protect them. When there are roads a Palestinian can't walk on. They can't modify their homes (even in the so called Israel free zone). They can't vote and have to stick with the government Israel installed

Or how the people in Israel still face significant discrimination and have second class citizenships. Etc...

Sounds very democratic to me. I mean how democratic can an ethnostate be?

[u/The100thIdiot → u/almighty_darklord]

You appear to be confusing Israel with the occupied territories.

Israel does not have any second class citizens and if you think it is an ethnostate, you may be having problems with the meaning of words again.
