Image of dead ‘white farmers’ came from Congo, not South Africa

1. This is so shameful what these media scumbags and Trump are trying to do.

   Trump is pushing the “genocide” narrative, while the media is trying to discredit the entire thing as fake using technicalities.

   “Lie! Those crosses are not burial sites! Orange man lie! Entire thing fake!”

   >Their deaths at their farm, by attackers who stole valuables from their home, led to a public outcry by the farming community, and the temporary planting of the crosses by fellow Afrikaners keen to highlight their murders among those of other farmers who have been killed across South Africa.

   I’m not American or African. But, I have been reading about this issue in the news for ages. South Africa is a broken country with an incredible wealth gap along racial lines. A large portion of blacks remain dirt poor, while there have been many instances of the relatively wealthy whites being attacked. Hell, even the Indian community which occupies the middle ground, and owns a lot of small businesses have been the target of attacks and riots.

   Discrimination based on skin colour is back and codified, except now it is “affirmative action” for the blacks. White South Africans have been leaving the country for decades now.

   >the country’s national statistics agency, estimates that 612,000 white South Africans left the country between 1985 and 2021, with 70% of that exodus taking place since 2001.

   This whole complex issue is neither “fake” as the media scumbags are telling, nor is it some “white genocide” as Trump is telling.

2. Whether it’s due to race or economic situation white farmers in South Africa are still attacked and murdered at a rate that makes them able to claim asylum.
