Devon Hofmeyr questions the exclusion of white businesses and labeled SwiitchBeauty racist prompting his followers to poorly rate the business on Facebook.
SwiitchBeauty is a South-African cosmetics business that is showing its true racism right here! If you ever wondered what the word ‘racism’ means, seeing that it is used all over the world, it will be this right here!
White people will be totally excluded. This is a business that loves you money, but hates your race!!!
Some of his followers threw racist comments towards black people.
