Oh shame. Don't be too indoctrinated by a history written by racists. The genocides of Khoisan are well documented, do some googling yourself. When I'm not on my phone I'll link academic articles for you.

Nice deletion of your other comment. Did you click that genocide and wars mean different things finally?

Please post them. What is stopping you. Why didn't you post immediately? Even if you are on a phone it should be quick and easy. But you want to take time to find bullshit instead of fact. I posted fact and actually did look it up to make sure. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khoikhoi–Dutch_Wars no masacre, just wars, like the whole damn world has had in their different histories. What the Trekboer actually was : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trekboer. Khoi San bushmen: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khoisan.

The KhoSan was never masacred by Euro people. Google Zulus and see and maybe some of those ignorant brain cells of yours can fire up some new connections.

I did this one phone, it wasn't hard, if you want more facts I can easily Google for you if you like. If Wikipedia doesn't suffice, just keep this in mind... Wikipedia is open, and none of these facts have been challenged with the pool coming out of that glory hole in your face... Good day.

Khoikhoi–Dutch Wars

The Khoikhoi–Dutch Wars were a series of conflicts that took place in the last half of the 17th century in what was known then as the Cape of Good Hope (today it refers to a smaller geographic spot), in the area of present-day Cape Town, South Africa, between Dutch settlers who came from the Netherlands and the local African people, the most prominent being the Khoikhoi, who had lived in that part of the world for millennia.

The arrival of the permanent settlements of the Dutch, under the Dutch East India Company, at the Cape of Good Hope in 1652 brought them into the land of the local people, such as the Khoikhoi (called Hottentots by the Dutch), the Khoisan, Griqua, Bushmen (also known as the San), and some Bantu peoples of South Africa. While the Dutch traded with the Khoikhoi, nevertheless serious disputes broke out over land ownership and livestock. This resulted in attacks and counter-attacks by both sides which were known as the Khoikhoi–Dutch Wars that ended in the eventual defeat of the Khoikhoi (who also succumbed to the diseases that the White settlers brought, such as measles and smallpox.) The First Khoikhoi-Dutch War took place in 1659, the second in 1673, the third 1674 - 1677.

Trekboer

In the history of Southern Africa, the Trekboere (now referred to as "Trekboer" in English; pronounced: ) were nomadic pastoralists descended from European settlers on the frontiers of the Dutch Cape Colony. The Trekboere began migrating into the interior from the areas surrounding what is now Cape Town, such as Paarl (settled from 1688), Stellenbosch (founded in 1679), and Franschhoek (settled from 1688), during the late 17th century and throughout the 18th century. The Trekboer included mixed-race families of partial Khoikoi descent who had also become established within the economic class of burghers.

Khoisan

Khoisan (; also spelled Khoesaan, Khoesan or Khoe–San) is a unifying name for two groups of peoples of Southern Africa, who share ethnic, cultural, and linguistic characteristics with the Bantu majority of the region. Culturally, the Khoisan are divided into the foraging San, or Bushmen, and the pastoral Khoi, or more specifically Khoikhoi, previously known as Hottentots.

The San include the indigenous inhabitants of Southern Africa before the southward Bantu migrations from North and East Africa reached the region 700 years ago, which led to the Bantu populations displacing the Khoi and San to become the predominant inhabitants of Southern Africa. Scholars have debated whether the Khoi had a separate origin from the San.

ROFL, did you actually read any of that hahaha. Where the fudge does it say genocide. Get out of your booster seat, you're obviously not even from South Africa. Written by racists on an open platfform like Wikipedia. Cool story.
