To be clear, even if you have a door that opens outward, the doors first open inwards before rotating to go back out. That way pressure will always keep the door from opening when at a high altitude.

Veritasium did a video on it:

While Trump is definitely exaggerating what's happening there, I think you're downplaying it a bit too much.

This video is: a) more than a decade old,

There were multiple videos, but the concerning part here is it looks like even in recent rallies Julius Malema has continued with this chant:

It is ridiculous that there were no dates/locations for anything in these clips given what Trump is trying to claim here.

b) from a rally of a minority opposition party i.e. not the political party of the people Trump was meeting,

Yes, but it's worth pointing out that the EFF is still one of the more popular parties. The 3rd or 4th largest party from what I can tell based on this list (and from what other articles have mentioned). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_political_parties_in_South_Africa

It is good to hear that someone like him is increasingly being sidelined.

Thanks for pointing out the court case. After a little digging it looks like the court has ruled on this more than once. Back in 2011 they found him guilty of hate speech for the chant: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-safrica-malema/south-africa-court-finds-malema-guilty-of-hate-speech-idUSTRE78B2DD20110912/

And in 2022 the courts ruled that the chant should not be taken literally.

That chant when coupled with statements to his supporters such as "never be afraid to kill" is still alarming.

It reeks of "it was just a joke, bro" energy and what fascists try to do when they are testing the waters.

Please explain.

Edit: I see your edit... But I must still be misreading the conversation.

Even after double checking the username, you were the one that said, "Such as?"

Yes and you were the one asking the questions about things that are explained in the article so I responded with some context.

This question really shouldn't be that hard to answer.

Here's the video that was shown at the Whitehouse:

Video of the full meeting (I set the link to skip ahead to the part where the TV is brought in) if you want to see President Cyril Ramaphosa's reaction to it:

Besides the video of the crosses along the road, there are video clips of the Economic Freedom Fighter's leader, Julius Malema calling for a bloody revolution as well as chanting with large crowds to "kill the Boer" (white man/farmer).

There are no timestamps/locations for any of the video clips, but it looks like this guy founded the Economic Freedom Fighters back in 2013.

Edit: typo

I know that this is an ongoing thing between these 2 countries, but it always makes me nervous when I remember that they both have a nuclear arsenal.
