At what point

Will the western liberals stop painting everything in Zimbabwe in the context of Apartheid. Zimbabwe was an independent white ruled nation for 14 years. It's been an independent black ruled nation for 29 years. How long are they going to blame everything on that 14 year period more than a generation ago? Zimbabwe is the next African Genocidal Calamity. Everyone knows that.
