Prime example of the type of things I’m talking about.
Prove it.
I call bullshit
I’m sure you’ll post links to foaming-at-the-mouth white supremacists who desperately (and unsuccessfully) tried to refute JA Hese’s 1971 study - Hese himself ironically was an Afrikaner and published his work under the apartheid regime - but the uncomfortable truth still stands.
The first documented marriage between an European settler and a slave was in 1656 at the Cape. Jan Woutersz married Catherine of Bengal- Jan was a caretaker on Robben Island and the family lived without discrimination in the community.
In 1664 a Danish soldier, Pieter van Meerhoff, became the first white person to marry a Khoikhoi, Eva. She acted as an unpaid interpreter and intermediary between Jan van Riebeeck, the governor of the Cape Colony, and various Khoikhoi chiefs.
Christoffel Snyman, the son of a freed slave Anthony of Bengal and Catharina of Palicatte, married Marguerite de Savoy. The De Savoys were a prominent Huguenot family in the Cape.
Such ‘mixed’ marriages were initially more common amongst soldiers and lower grade Dutch East India Company (Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie, VOC) officials, but once burghers were allowed to pursue farming for their own account, rather than being directly tied to the VOC, it became more widespread. Senior grade VOC officials tended not to marry in the Cape since they would at some stage be returning home to Holland, where a mixed marriage would be frowned upon, or posted to another colony after a relatively short period.
Soldiers and others tended to stay.

On a side note, Cape Colored women are often ridiculously hot - you should travel to Cape, try hooking up with one of them and when she inevitably turns you down because you’re a basement dwelling creep you can always accuse her of being “impure”, “subhuman” and shout out racial abuse.
Race: A bucket system that people made up because humans are tribal. It involves more than physical features, also culture, language etc… Tribalism has its plusses and minuses.
Every human is 99% genetically the same. There is variance between men and women since they don’t get any of the genes from the Y chromosome. Within a species, every member carries the same set of genes, the “species reference genome”.
Stolen from a similar online discussion on a geneticist forum:
Right, the things that make people phenotypically different from each other are:
1.) The alleles (or “variations”) they have for any given gene.
2.) The combinations of the different alleles discussed in #1.
3.) The degree of expression of the genes discussed in #1 (which is a function of both epigenetic processes and the relative number of copies of a given gene).
None of this proof and it’s evident that you’re lying just by the appearance of Afrikaaners - they all have light colored hair and blue and green and eyes. These features are recessive.
Yeah I forgot to ask: do you prefer I call you loppar or by the number tattooed on your arm?
Bwaaaaahahahahahahaha
A Holocaust slur, how grown up. I suppose it’s all fine and dandy if I call you by the eptithets your ancestry was given.
See BrickHead this is the kind of warped, insulting stuff we’re dealing with from raj.

I give as good as I get.
Stop whining
Oh my, it seems we’re rattled by this new information. Light hair you say? Let’s look at the current poster boy for white nationalism in South Africa, the singer Bok Van Blerk:
Or the notorious South African Nazi sympathizer and Hitler’s dining partner Robey Leibbrandt who tried to create the Fourth Reich in South Africa.
They look so… impure
Here’s one of the many papers related to the topic that are available on Pubmed. Feel free to cry yourself to sleep in your basement…
And not the first anti-Semitic slur he’s vomited up in these forums.

A whopping 6% of the authors genes are non European and he believes those to be indian NOT African ancestry . Down the line one of his ancestors owned an Indian slave.
BTW since you touched upon the apartheid, how has south Africa faired in the last twenty years as white rule ended and black rule took over?

Their economy is in free fall and crime has exploded. I will give a full post when I get a chance.
Even is that’s true, there’s absolutely zero chance the cause is the end of Apartheid.

Why not?
Did you see that list of the countries with highest quality of living I posted? If so did you notice a pattern?
Ya, very liberal governments.
Ah, you immigrants and your poor reading comprehension…
The author demonstrated that although he believed based on family records that he had pure Dutch/German ancestry DNA testing showed that he had 6% African and Asian genes.
Percentages vary from individual to individual but all studies, including Hese’s magisterial work put the number between 10 and 18% on average in the Afrikaner population.
It could be. If they started considering black africans people, then they may also be considered as part of the crime statistics too- Like you can’t just throw a tire over them and light them on fire anymore.
I knew an old school Dutch south african. That dude was rough, and had no qualms or hesitation treating black people very badly. Like, that was just how you do it for him. Not even a glimmer of thought to racial equality.
edit: In fact, that was about 20 years ago, and he hadn’t been in the US for very long.

Can’t argue with that.
