    I guess it shouldn’t be surprising that Russia of all places would proudly do something so racist, shitty, and ironic.

      Well it's weird patronization, is only rescuing the poor boers from the loss of apartheid.

      The why eludes me, but I think the Russians feel that these fine folk can help with their colonial efforts else in Africa

        Do people just magically assume the world is some diverse candy land? The boers are probably one of the only people Russia can bring in without expending any political capital. It's that simple.

    Damn what a disguise, Clark Kent would be proud.

    "African villages" is racism wearing 0 strength glasses and a suit. You'd reeaalllyy have to suspend your disbelief to not see right through it
