The South African conspiracy crowd is crazy fucking stupid. It ranges from "Pokémon Go is from the devil" to "Apartheid wasn't that bad, actually".

They eat up the American conspiracies too. Why the fuck is 52 year old Margriet from Roodepoort in a QAnon Telegram group chat? Fuck knows

Because America's #1 export is US culture.

“Apartheid wasn’t that bad, actually”.

The "Apartheid wasn’t that bad, actually” crowd is by no means limited to the "conspiracy fallcy" scene in South Africa - a very, very large proportion of white liberal types in South Africa buys into this narrative without admitting to it even to themselves. There's a good reason some refer to the DA as "National Party Lite."
