Universities in the USA were all agog in 1986, protests, sit-ins all over: "free Nelson Mandela", and "because Steve Biko" and "Divest now from Krugerrands". etc. And media was flocking to the universities to film the courageous affluent upper middle class kids, fat from the dining halls, to proclaim that South Africa was a mess.

My point is that the rot was already setting in then. Since the ANC now openly supports killing the Boer, it weirdly echoes around the world that the white-people-way of rule-of-law is the patriarchy asserting itself.
