Double Standards on Human Rights | Mark Oppenheimer | TPP#84

Mark Oppenheimer returns to the Pioneer Podcast to discuss the growing trend of "selective outrage" in global and South African politics. We explore why the South African government remains silent on the murder of protesters in Iran while taking aggressive legal action against Israel, highlighting the double standards regarding human rights. We unpack the recent ICJ case and the contradictions in how "genocidal speech" is defined. We also discuss the bizarre denial of race laws in South Africa by local media figures on international platforms and the refusal of radical ideologues to engage in genuine debate. Finally, Oppenheimer shares the inside story of the attempted cancellation of The Kiffness before his Kirstenbosch show.   You can support Lex Libertas here - https://www.lexlibertas.org.za/support-us
