ConCourt Rules ‘Kill the Boer’ Not Hate Speech in Blow to AfriForum, as Malema Taunts Musk and Trump

South Africa’s Constitutional Court has sparked fierce debate with a landmark ruling on the controversial liberation song “Kill the Boer”, dealing a defeat to AfriForum while handing Julius Malema and the EFF a major victory. The court, presided over by Acting Registrar Dunisani Mathiba, dismissed AfriForum’s application for leave to appeal an earlier decision, finding no reasonable prospects of success in their argument that the song constitutes hate speech.

The ruling reignites a decades-old tension between preserving anti-apartheid struggle heritage and addressing modern-day racial divisions. To the EFF, “Dubul’ ibhunu”* (“Shoot the Boer”) remains a powerful symbol of resistance. But AfriForum and its supporters argue the lyrics incite violence against white farmers—a claim the court rejected in this case, ruling that its performance does not meet the legal threshold for hate speech.

The ⁦@EFFSouthAfrica⁩ superior logic prevails again. I want all of you combined with your white supremacist; we will still show you flames. Try me boys. ⁦@elonmusk⁩ ⁦@realDonaldTrump⁩ pic.twitter.com/hhF9Aljkhp

Malema’s Provocative Victory Lap

Never one to miss a moment, Malema took to social media to gloat, posting the court order with a caption praising the EFF’s “superior logic” and framing the win as a defeat for “white supremacist forces.” Then, in classic Malema fashion, he escalated the drama—tagging Elon Musk and Donald Trump with a “Try me, boys.”

Neither Musk nor Trump has any direct link to the case, but Malema’s taunt ensures global attention. Analysts see it as a calculated move: part defiance, part publicity stunt, reinforcing his image as an unapologetic firebrand.

Why This Ruling Matters

The decision is more than a legal technicality—it’s a cultural flashpoint. For the EFF, it’s validation of their radical stance and a rallying cry for supporters. For AfriForum, it’s a setback that may shift their strategy from litigation to grassroots mobilization.

But the broader question lingers: Can South Africa reconcile its painful past with its fragile present? The court’s ruling leans into free speech protections, but critics warn that without context, such songs risk inflaming tensions in a nation still grappling with land reform and racial inequality.
