South African Racism is NOT Subtle | Loyiso Gola Live at the Apollo | The Demouchets REACT 

We (South Africans) find humor in everything, life is too stressful to be upset about everything all the time. We like to have fun and we love a good laugh, I sometimes feel Americans are overly sensitive.

South Africans make fun of Everything. It's one of our survival traits.

I'm a white South African and me and my black friends rip each other to shreds with Apartheid jokes, all done with love. It was the the most shameful and disgusting part of our history. The thing about our humour is that we find the funny in everything. It is our coping mechanism❤❤🇿🇦

Hi fam..we South Africans ease our pain with humour

Apartheid was also a Law in Namibia 🇳🇦, a Country North of South Africa 🇿🇦, as we were under the regime of South African Government, and back then Namibia 🇳🇦 was called Southwest Africa... and in 1990, Southwest Africa (now Namibia 🇳🇦) gained her Independence.

OMG, you guys made my night. You reacted to Loyiso. He is a gem. Thank you 💃💃💃

Apollo in England.

In SA we find humor in everything. When USA was trembling because of covid19, in SA people came up with "the covid19 dance" and it was a dance move used in a lot of parties around the country🤣🤣🤣🤣 I was ready to leave this country cause ai no man people here are not serious at all🤣🤣🤣

If there's one thing that reflects the true essence of South Africans... Humour and Song... We laugh and sing regardless of the situation... Love you for this Loyiso Gola reaction video. We ADORE that man this side❤❤❤❤❤❤ CAMAGU

I feel like, as South Africans, we tend to deal with life through humour. So, instead of getting angry about it all the time, we joke about it. We can laugh at our deepest pain even though we're not healed yet. At this point in time, I'm not sure if it is a strength or a weakness? Yet, through the healing process, we laugh.

🇿🇦I went to his comedy show over a decade ago on my sweet 16 in South Africa. I even have a picture with him from the show 🤔

Loyiso Gola is amazing. You should do a reaction to Daliso Chaponda, a comedian from Malawi, but based in the UK. He's extremely talented, and hilarious too.

Pronounced as it is written Fam: Loh - yee- so

His name is pronounced Low-yee-saw

Loyiso Gola, one of the best comedians South Africa has ever produced.

Great Reaction, Mr Gola is gem you guys should check more of his stuff. 👋🏼

Being a short South African in the USA | Loyiso Madinga: Comedians of The World

Hi guys. I've been following your reactions especially about African countries and South Africa in particular and I must say you really opened my eyes to realities in life that I've never imaged. This guys name is Loyiso Gola and it's pronounced: Lo-Yi or Yee-So Go-La. Thank you for appreciating my country but not everything you see on social media is a true reflection of our daily life but humour in South Africa is true. There could be something depressing like national crisis but the very same affected folks are the one to start droping jokes about the whole thing. You'll have scratch hard to find South Africans looking sad on something tragic that happen to them. We get even when we are angry. Of course every now and then we lose it and start trashing our own infrastructure and thereafter, we're good. We chill and start a braai.

Fam that is how I feel about the USA in regards to random animals just roaming around. I visited a friend in Vermont just a month ago and on arrival he made me away that there are bob cats and fox around. Do you guys realize that even a squirrel crossing the road is wild for me as a girl born in South Africa🤣🤣🤣. In Africa the only animals you will ever see crossing the road where humans live are cats, dogs and rats. Anything else is literally extra ordinary.

You pronounce it as Lo-yee-soh...It means conquer

Y'all my favorite couple. Relationship goals.

This properly cracked me up. Everything about it. We do have foxes everywhere (just saw one today) in London. They can get brave, once there was a fox den at the back of my garden and they'd come and eat the cat food by the back door. Also friends from abroad were staying over once and the foxes were mating. The noise is awful and they thought someone was being attacked.

There is no joke to strong or to offensive is South Africa, we are strong people, Everything is a joke, even the government. 😂

South Africa 🇿🇦 ♥

That specifiic Apollo Theatre is in Westend, London. Loyiso who was born in Gugulethu, Cape Town just 5 miles from where I live, is Huge in South Africa, has made a name for himself on the UK circuit (he now lives in both SA & the UK) and has also had successful shows in the USA.. Apollo London is one of the first big venues a South African act can put on their resumé to say they've made it onto the Big international stages.

Loyiso is brilliant ❤

Please react to Trevor Noah Being Black in America 🇿🇦🇱🇷🔥😭

Apollo is in the UK. SA headQuarters

U have to watch Trevor Noah stand up comedies, the dude is hilarious (Attention passengers) plz

As frequent as foxes are in London and in rural towns and cities here- I don’t know anyone who’s been harmed or attacked by one! They’re scavengers and eat anything they can find in your bins etc… the worst thing about them is how loud they are at night screaming and screeching and it can sound like a person in trouble 😂

Loyiso and Trevor Noah our best comedy exports

Dude you got the name right 👌

Loyiso was born in 1983... In Gugulethu... Apartheid ended in 1994... Eleven years old... It is now 2024... Thirty years later... Explain the part about growing up again Loyiso... South Africans voted last week and finally toppled the ANC after three decades of corruption... Thank God...!!! Our demographics are... (Rounded down...) Black...81% Coloured...8% White...7% Asian...2% Other...1% The old rhetoric is dead... EVERY NATION ON EARTH HAS HAD OR IS STILL PERPETRATING THIS SHAME... We are not harping on and on and on abput any other country's political shame... South Africa brought our "crap" out into the open with the "Truth and Reconciliation" commission... Remember...!!! All the dirty little secrets came out... Done... Enough now... We are all working so damned hard to save our country... Loved the story about the white cleaning lady though... 🇿🇦

I don't know if you will see this comment because you reacted so long ago, but to me, people today are OVER-sensitive. People will make a big fuss about things that they have even gotten wrong - because they didn't even bother to check & just DECIDED was wrong! Which IS wrong. I grew up in Canada, (a very multi-cultural country & esp. in one of our MOST multi-cultural cities.) People make comments at times now like; "I don't see colour." If you DON'T, then I PITY you! - because COLOUR, esp. "the MORE, the Merrier" - is a LOT more beautiful & interesting & mind-opening & developing than PRETENDING you aren't seeing anything that is different or REMOVING things that are different (because it isn't something that is universal & somebody MAY feel excluded or offended ie. Christmas decorations or Christmas music being played in stores at Christmas time.) Canada (for the most part, anyways) believes in APPRECIATING differences - so there may be a Christmas parade & also festivals & events to celebrate other religions & cultures through the year - that are attended by many people - even those that do not belong to that background. What is more lovely to look at? A stained glass window with many colours in it OR a plain single-coloured pane of glass? What is more lovely to look at? A multi-coloured painting or a single colour of paint covering an entire canvas? To me, a person who has grown up around SO many cultures I have a basic rule (that I REALLY think A LOT more people should follow) which is this: BEFORE jumping to conclusions & taking offence about what somebody has said or done ASK THEM - (& NOT in a hostile manner where you are ALREADY determining guilt) - "WHY? " "Why did you say that?" OR "What made you say that?" "Why did you do that?" INTENTION - behind a word or action SHOULD be the most important thing! WAS it meant to be cruel or not? MANY TIMES - the answer will NOT be what you think & is a LOT more innocent. Their words & actions may be based on FACTS, YOU are missing out on. Their words or actions may be based on a different cultural way that is taken differently in their background. Their words or actions MAY be based on INACCURATE information OR a lack of information - but NOT intended to harm or give offence to anybody. In this case, KINDLY SPOKEN information to educate that person will be better received & change offensive behaviour a LOT faster than swearing at them or causing DELIBERATE offence or hardship to them. I think the question "why" in a NON-hostile way, is one of the BEST bridges in the English language. I don't know if I am getting my point across right here. I am not doing fully well right now AND I haven't had caffeine. (I was even thinking of just erasing this & putting this down at a later time, some time when I am sure that I am making sense.) Instead, I have decided to leave this. Please forgive me if it just seems like rambles. IF somebody gets something out of this in a positive way at all, by any chance, then I am happy though. Have a great day Sierra & Dionne. (I hope I haven't spelled your names wrong.)

It's in the UK. I lived in London for 6 years. Those little suckers (foxes 🦊) just pop out from nowhere and just look at you like "Hello mate"

🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🔥🔥🔥🔥😅😅😅

I really enjoy your reaction. I just want mention that, at the time when South Africa was having a referendum in 92. South Africa was already under sanctions things were tough for the Apartheid government that a majority of them voted for the regime to end.

Law-yi*-saw Go-lah

Y'all looked uncomfortable watching that not sure how to React 🤣🤣Lo-yee-so is cut throat

Loyiso my man🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🥹,thank you guys❤❤.He was in England y'all.

Loyisa Gola is an international icon❤️❤️

We love Loyiso!👊🏾😉

I love Loyiso Gola. Trevor Noah is great but Loyiso is far more brutal and cutting in his comedy. He tells it like it is brilliantly.

We literally laugh and joke about everything in South Africa 🇿🇦 it's kind of just part of our culture 😂

I'm from Liverpool, Northwest England. And Blackpool is about a 2-hour drive North from here. It's famous for its Pleasure Beach Amusement Park. And on the downside, the highest rate of poverty in the whole county.

Foxes even climb cars parked at night in the UK. You see them all the time. Most cars do not have garages in their homes. We park on the streets.

Law-yee-saw Gorr-lah=Loyiso Gola

Love you guys. Keep doing what you do.

Hold up who tickles foxes 😂

Loyiso spell it like Law-e-so. Gola as in G for goal G and ola as in Spanish Hello, Gola

Loh yi soh

Hi react to travor noah being black in America from south Africa

He was like Norm doing the fake news here in SA. love the guy

Nah i disagree, americans don't greet at all, i have experienced it😅 the silent is too much

Plz React to soweto 🙆‍♂️🏄

So glad yall saw this😂

It’s the UK. I lived in the UK, Midlands, to be specific in Burmingham. I used to travel bus to work and no one greet anyone, nor talk to anyone in the bus, unless they know them, so was at work. Loyiso was performing in the UK.

THAT'S HOW YOU PRONOUNCE *APARTHEID*. Trevor take note. It's an Afrikaans word, pronounce it as such.

I don’t know about everywhere in Europe but in Germany you will always see the fox 🦊 sign on the road which means they are foxes 🦊 in that area

the UK

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥reaction

Africa, especially Southern Africa has an unique and diversified history of Black People, how white people treated us back then... Wasn't easy, according to those who lived and felt the sting of Apartheid...

Loved this! 🖤Love you guys!🖤 And oh yeah...just read his name the way it is...no clicks. 😅 Pronounce 'G' like in 'Give' not as 'J'...hope that makes sense. 😂

This is Apollo in London, UK (not in Harlem, New York). People in western countries dont greet strangers in public spaces. Yes this comedian is well-read - the new racism. His name is pronounced "low he so" as one word

We make fun of everything here in SA😂 We even have a saying in Zulu that "kuhlekwa ngisho kufiwe" which roughly means we laugh even when there is death. Nothing is ever too serious, We make jokes to make the situation lighter.

London Apollo

England has quite a bit of foxes. But they are mostly harmless. I once saw one in a park but it was more scared of me than I was of it

Hahaha i watch your whatwver bt alwayws happy becoz ur cute no need to aplologize abt anyting in black South African i support you !no need to apologize to nlo one

I love your wife's cackle, I know it comes from the heart 🤣🤣🤣

Also, plot twist, there were two referendums, and both times only whites were allowed, and both times the whites voted to end apartheid. It was a regime.

dope reaction family

he meant Americans don't greet strangers... In South Africa it's customary no matter what culture you are from to greet other people when you get into a shared taxi, to greet when meeting or making eye contact with strangers at a social event or just greeting your server at a restaurant and making small talk. Americans are extremely wary of strangers so they just look at you weirdly

It's the one in London

I live in London England, have seen a fox Inna supermarket parkapck and at a train station.

I live in Blackpool lol, always the butt of jokes this side of the country lol
