Apartheid and Israel – evergreens that are always trending online

Ever hot topics, apartheid and Israel trending on social media yesterday, often in the same sentence. This is what users on X had to say:
@NalediChirwa They want to get rid of Apartheid resistance songs but don't want to get rid of Apartheid statues, Apartheid Die Stem in our National Anthem, Apartheid Springboks, Apartheid flag, Apartheid spatial planning, Apartheid street names, Apartheid school names. They don't hate Apartheid. They hate those who resist it. We shall sing! Kill the Boer! If you have an issue go be a refugee in America!
@English_blood_ Black people are killing white people in South Africa, it's apartheid in reverse, so where is the worldwide condemnation and sanctions?
@LandNoli I was in the Apartheid army, posted in Mtubatuba The SA Black on Black violence was deliberately stoked, armed and maintained by Apartheid govt to perpetuate the myth that Blacks can't get along & need Whites Apartheid took existing rivalries & inflated them. We trained IFP Zulus to stoke trouble in townships. Israel taught us because they used it on Palestinians for them not to unite & resist the Israeli occupation. We did the same thing'.
@Partisan_12 You don't get to just hold five million people captive for nearly 60 years with no voting rights and claim to be a democracy. That's an APARTHEID REGIME, this is why Israel is not a democracy.

@pieterkrielorg The DA didn't uplift the poor, they just landscaped around them. Cape Town isn't progress. It's apartheid with better branding. #southafricapolitics #politicalcommentary #politicalanalysis
@MbuyiseniNdlozi There is no greater evil on earth than the actions of Israel in Gaza.
@Robert_Martin72 My message to all those supporting Israel will never change: You're on the side of genocide, apartheid, and ethnic cleansing. History won't forget – neither will we.
