The NYT is total left-wing propaganda. Compare the velvet glove reception of this blatantly genocidal song to “Baby, It’s Cold Outside”. One is politically incorrect and unacceptable in light of modern circumstances, one must be tolerated despite current circumstances because of its history as a progressive anthem. The hypocrisy is blatant. But this anti-Boer song is no different than “Kill Whitey”, which was always and still very much is an acceptable slogan and policy prescription for leftists… If it weren’t for double standards, the left wouldn’t have any standards at all…
