Original Note:
The chant “Kill the Boer, the farmer” was declared not hate speech by the Equality Court in Johannesburg, South Africa. Although the case has been taken up to the Supreme Court for appeal, it remains to Black South Africans as a struggle chant against the Apartheid system. https://www.groundup.org.za/article/judge-rules-kill-boer---kill-farmer-not-hate-speech/#:~:text=Court%20accepts%20that%20chants%20should%20not%20be%20taken%20literally&text=The%20Equality%20Court%20in%20Johannesburg,did%20not%20constitute%20hate%20speech.
