Why do people hate South Africa so much?

Yes, the country does have problems, but it just came from apartheid(worse then segregation, much worse). Its not that bad of a country. I mean, have you seen how good the world cup was in South africa. Capetown and Durban are very good places. Yes, there is a alot of ''problems''. But for goodness sake, we not having wars or terrorist bombings. Don't hate it, LOVE IT!

Where do you see numerous people hating South Africa?

 

It's not my favorite country, but it's okay. No hate from me.

There are four mainstream representations of South Africa.

 

1. Nelson Mandela

2. Lethal Weapon 2

3. District 9

4. Die Antwoord

 

One is a legit positive representation, two are movies that make South Africa look bad, and the last is a weird love them or hate them (mostly hate them) electro/pop/rap group.

I don't really have an opinion of South Africa. It's not a place that comes to my mind a lot.

I don't see much hate for South Africa going around. I don't think many Americans or Europeans really think about the country too often either.

They invented the rape, they're paraplegics are out of control and they did bad things to Morgan Freeman.

 

Also the World Cup there was f*cking awful, as far as World Cups go it was probably the worst one since USA '94, in fact it was even worse than that. Worst. World. Cup. Ever. It wasn't remembered for the football played, which, because of the retarded ball design, was awful. It will always be remembered for an annoying musical instrument. The stadiums were sh*t and generally unfilled, and it was an allround crap atmosphere and event.

People that aren't Lady Gaga fans hate Die Antwoord? I haven't met a single person that dislikes them.

 

Hell, my only qualm with modern South Africa is Adriaan, but that's a different thing entirely.

Hmm...

 

Ethnic cleansing

Pirates

Ebola

Greedy imperialist diamond mongers

Severe racial divide

 

But then again I'm just throwing out the bad things I've heard about it. Don't know how much of it is even true. But essentially, I've always got the idea that South Africa is a country that was formed by imperialist Britain and has pretty much existed based on racism and greed.

I don't hate South Africa biggrin.gif

 

I hate the crime, the corruption, and the poverty. And when will they stop adding 24 hour news channels on tv? I mean seriously!!! Too many!

 

Other than that, SA is awesome man cool.gif

 

Also, @SegaciousKJB - Ethnic cleansing happened during apartheid. Doesn't happen anymore except for a couple of isolated xenophobic attacks in townships, there are no pirates here (this is not Somalia), and the ebola virus is very rare here in SA (maybe a few isolated cases. But ebola is mostly a central Africa virus I think)

Hate? I don't hate any country just individuals. Only negative things I now about South Africa is high percentage of people with Aids,poverty,rapes... and more Aids. But I don't see why would I hate the country.

This chick I almost dated was from South Africa, she really annoyed me, she expected me to spoon her for extended periods of time while She was watching TV without it leading to sex, are you f*cking serious? Trying to watch TV while lying behind someone is so pointlessly uncomfortable if it doesn't lead anywhere, unless you're really lovey dovey. Plus her political views and forcing me to donate to kids in Africa pissed me off too. She is 22 now and still wants to stay a virgin. Glad I never dated her haha, would have been a mistake.

People hate it because they are racist. Too bad. If I ever leave the US, I might relocate to South Africa. It's not a bad place.

I saw some people show this off at a Gay and Lesbian Rights parade. I guess that flag represents homosexual now or something... I thought it was a German thing

I'm telling the truth. In fact, I can show you pictures of the Nazi flag being waved in the middle of a homosexual parade in my state.

Don't bother, it's probably one of those nazi gaybros. They are rare these days.

I'm a bit cheesed off at them for holding the worst World Cup in history thanks to their horrid insistence on using vuvuzelas. Other than that I'm sure they're fine people.

I ain't got nothing against the current South Africa, though the police, from what I've seen, seems kinda trigger happy.

I've talked to A LOT of people and I don't know a single person out of thousands of people I have talked to who hates South Africa. Why would people hate South Africa anyways? I think you're overreacting, man.

Ya know... not everyone in this world just want sex out of relationships. It may be difficult for you to understand, but some like the idea of being close and intimate with someone that cares... loves even...

 

It's not just exclusive to chicks from South Africa.
