So if Germany had guaranteed the independence of the Boers, that would have had no geopolitical valence or ramifications, it would have been "oh oops fair's fair cancel the Boer War everyone"? Britain wouldn't have said "you are de facto allying with someone I am compelled to invade who is in my sphere of influence, this is provocation"

Because Britain saw Germany just WANTING A NAVY as provocation

The Nazis burned the works of a great many acclaimed German authors like Thomas and Heinrich Mann, Lion Feuchtwanger, Jakob Wassermann, Arnold and Stefan Zweig, Erich Maria Remarque, Walther Rathenau, Albert Einstein, Alfred Kerr and Hugo Preuss. But not only the works of dozens of German writers were burned. A good many foreign authors were also included: Jack London, Upton Sinclair, Helen Keller, Margaret Sanger, H. G. Wells, Havelock Ellis, Arthur Schnitzler, Freud, Gide, Zola, Proust.

Inventing concentration camps and practicing genocide on women and children as a terror tactic, because their plan to rig a foreign nation's elections so they could steal its newly discovered gold mines failed?
>During the Second Anglo-Boer War which lasted from 1899–1902, the British operated concentration camps in South Africa: the term "concentration camp" grew in prominence during that period. The camps had originally been set up by the British Army as refugee camps in order to provide refuge for civilian families who had been forced to abandon their homes for any reason which was related to the war. However, when General The 1st Baron Kitchener of Khartoum, as he then was, took command of the British forces in late 1900, he introduced new tactics in an attempt to break the guerrilla campaign and the influx of civilians grew dramatically as a result. An epidemic of measles killed thousands.[1] According to historian Thomas Pakenham, Lord Kitchener initiated plans to flush out guerrillas in a series of systematic drives, organised like a sporting shoot, with success defined by a weekly 'bag' of killed, captured and wounded, and sweep the country bare of everything that could give sustenance to the guerrillas, including women and children. It was the clearance of civilians - uprooting a nation- that came to dominate the last phases of the war.

>As Boer farms were destroyed by the British under their "Scorched Earth" policy—including the systematic destruction of crops and the slaughtering or removal of livestock, the burning down of homesteads and farms—to prevent the Boers from resupplying themselves from a home base, many tens of thousands of men, women and children were forcibly moved into the camps.[3][4] This was not the first appearance of internment camps, as the Spanish had used internment in Cuba in the Ten Years' War, but the Boer War concentration camp system was the first time that a whole nation had been systematically targeted, and the first in which some whole regions had been depopulated.[3]

>Eventually, there were a total of 45 tented camps which were built for Boer internees and 64 additional camps which were built for black Africans. Of the 28,000 Boer men who were captured as prisoners of war, 25,630 were sent overseas. The vast majority of Boers who remained in the local camps were women and children. Over 26,000 women and children perished in these concentration camps.[5]

Obviously the "they" i am talking about cannot know he is making said jokes, this being an anonymous website. The question is if his fellow anti-/pol/ people would or not cancel him if they indeed knew he is making racist jokes on the internet (which they almost certainly would).

>hypothetical
Induction. In all observed cases of someone in current age making a racist joke with their identity exposed, that person faced trouble if there were enough people to see it, especially in the case of people whose social-groups are of a social-justice type. It takes no genius to draw the conclusion for this that what would most probably happen in said hypothetical scenario would be for that poster to be ostracized or cancelled. In order to deny so, you have to be severely misinformed or simply dishonest.

then your vision of history and politics is that "whatever the brits say is a provocation can't be done by other sovereign countries, even the simple act of having a military force smaller than britain's own; other countries cannot dictate terms to britain though"

which is retarded, which was the whole point

france's collective security arrangements in eastern europe were explicitly formulated in terms of an encirclement just like britain's prevention of german colonization. two countries effectively bordering you, your biggest rivals, are telling you that they intend to reduce you to perpetual economic insecurity and thus effectively vassalize you. if germany saying "no i want a colony or two" is an act of war, then so is this.
