1. Pretty sure any discussion of this subject is an easy way to speed run a ban at most places on this site.

   The idea that both the current ANC leadership in SA is dog whistling racism and that the previous white rule of SA was racist seems to be something there’s little naunce observed. 

   Everything I’ve read sounds like SA still has a huge problem with racism, be it white on black, black on white, or black on Indian. Unfortunately alt right people have hijacked this as some proof of white genocide. Which has poisoned the well of discussion about this subject.

2. Remember these people are being targeted relentlessly to the point of need asylum yet there’s a whole town called orania in South Africa where only white people are allowed and they get left alone, weird isn’t it?

3. we’re being controlled by 2018 vintage /pol/

   It’s all so tiresome. You know the Trump functionaries responsible for this have kekistan flags in their bedrooms.

4. >Trump’s February executive order referred to “hateful rhetoric and government actions fuelling disproportionate violence against racially disfavoured landowners”.

   >In 2018, during his first presidency, Trump also magnified the unsupported claim, popular globally with the far right, that white farmers in South Africa are being murdered at disproportionately high rates.

   [It’s called white genocide sweetie](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZ-PrVcrvag)

5. There’s a Wikipedia article with plenty of information debunking the conspiracy theory that white people are being disproportionately killed in South Africa.

   Is it any wonder both Trump and Musk are irritated at Wikipedia for existing?

6. “We cant be taking in refugees, we need to use our resources on our own people. America cant solve everyone else’s problems” apparently not a thing anymore
