South Africa Doubles Down On Its Anti-White Agenda And The Left Celebrates
Try to imagine you run South Africa. You’re in charge of the African National Congress. It’s not exactly an enviable position. Your country has the highest unemployment rate in the entire world. Since the end of apartheid, which was supposedly the greatest evil to ever befall mankind, a lot of bad things have been happening. The power grid has collapsed, along with the export markets and any semblance of public safety. Headlines like this one are common:
As you can see, it reads, “Grandmother, 71, dies of shock after she was forced to watch her three granddaughters being raped at gunpoint at her home in South Africa.” And there’s plenty more where that came from, because you have turned your country into a living embodiment of DEI, to disastrous results. And then, to your horror, the president of the United States decides to shine an international spotlight on your incompetence. He makes it impossible to hide what’s going on in South Africa. Specifically, the president allows white citizens of South Africa to flee to the United States so that they can escape all of the anti-white violence and race-based land seizures that you’ve implemented in your failing country. And unsurprisingly, a lot of white people take the United States up on its offer. They decide that it’s better to uproot their entire families and fly halfway across the world than to spend another second under your rule in South Africa.
If you have an ounce of shame, that would have to be extremely, monumentally embarrassing. There are politicians in Japan who would quite literally commit harakiri under those circumstances. The job of any government is to look after the well-being of its own people. Once the most productive members of society start leaving, at great personal cost to themselves, then you have failed as a government. You are illegitimate. You have no one else to blame. And you should resign in shame, at the absolute minimum.
But the African National Congress has decided on the opposite course of action. Rather than engage in any amount of introspection, they’ve decided to attack the white refugees who have just fled to America. They’re not showing any interest in keeping any of the remaining Afrikaners from fleeing, even though they’re responsible for maintaining the vast majority of usable farmland in the country. They’re also not interested in contesting the notion that white people are going to be persecuted in their country. Instead, the African National Congress released this statement the other day:
As you can see, the statement reads, “They flee not from persecution, but from justice, equality and accountability for historic privilege.” The statement goes on to describe the refugees as “cowardly,” and says they are “offended by a democratic society working to redress past injustice.” And then there’s this concluding line, which really sells the message: “Ours is not a broken or failing state, it is a people’s democracy advancing against the tides of distortion and destructive, divisive narratives.”
This is one of those things that’s “less true for having been said,” as the saying goes. If you’re running a highly functioning, stable country, then you’re not going to end your press release, out of nowhere, by declaring that you’re “not a broken or failing state.” No state that isn’t failing has ever had to clarify in a statement that they aren’t failing. That’s like walking up to your wife unprompted and announcing that you aren’t having an affair. But none of these people are especially bright, so they’re not aware of the implications of what they’re saying, no matter how obvious those implications might be. That also explains why, in effect, their message is essentially an explicit threat to every white person in South Africa. They’re also attempting to coax the refugees back with the promise of giving them the opportunity to be held accountable for historical injustices. They’re basically saying, “Hey guys, can you come back so we can persecute you? This isn’t fair! We were going to persecute you, but then you left!”

With this statement, they are validating everything that the Trump administration says about the country. No person, of any race, should be subjected to land seizures or violence as part of “accountability for historic privilege,” whatever that means. But that’s what the government of South Africa is now demanding, by their own admission. And it’s what the political Left is demanding in this country, too. In the days since the first 59 white refugees arrived from South Africa, political commentators on the Left have been melting down to a degree that’s truly hard to comprehend, even given everything we already know about these people. What we’re seeing is primal rage and hysteria. It is a level of anti-white race hatred that needs to be exposed, or else very soon, we’ll look a lot like South Africa.
We’ll start with Don Lemon, who no longer has the need to temper his passion for white genocide now that he’s not on cable news. Not that cable news personalities are tempering it very much. Watch:

First of all, notice he says that white people own most of the “fertile” land in South Africa. That word “fertile” is doing a lot of work there. If you know anything about farmland, it’s possible to ruin it. It’s possible to do a very bad job of maintaining it, too. It’s not as though you can just give a farm to a random person off the street, and rest assured that it’s going to be fertile in ten years. And we know that for a few reasons. First of all, it’s common sense. And secondly, Zimbabwe already tried this. Several decades ago, they made the decision to seize farms from whites and give them to black people. After all, what could go wrong? Zimbabwe was the “bread basket of Africa,” supposedly.
Well, as it turns out, a lot went wrong. Before long, Zimbabwe needed to import food because they couldn’t make their own. And eventually, the government gave up on the idea. They gave the farmland back to the white people. This is a Bloomberg news article from just a few years ago: “Zimbabwe Gives Land Back to White Farmers After Wrecking Economy. … Two decades after President Robert Mugabe wrecked Zimbabwe’s economy by urging black subsistence farmers to violently force white commercial farmers and their workers off their land, his successor has thrown in the towel. … The seizures that began in 2000 were ratified by the government, which said they were needed to redress colonial imbalances. A vibrant agricultural industry that exported tobacco and roses and grew most of the food the nation needed collapsed. Periodic food shortages ensued, inflation became the world’s highest and the manufacturing industry was decimated. What was one of Africa’s richest countries became one of its poorest.”
In other words, it turns out that, when you use the government to redistribute fertile farmland to correct some alleged “injustice,” you get famine. That is what “equity” means in practice. It’s what always happens when you take land from people who are managing it properly, and then redistribute it on the basis of race. Competence matters, especially when you’re talking about a country’s food supply. And make no mistake: The reason those white people control that farmland in South Africa is because they’re competent. They bought it, and then they maintained it for generations. No one handed it to them, or maintained it for them. In many cases, they were there long before black South Africans arrived and demanded their property.
In this debate, we are well past the point where the Left can scream “apartheid” and get whatever they want. Post-apartheid South Africa is simply too great of a disaster, by every available metric. And by the way, apartheid was nothing like what’s currently being enacted in South Africa. As we discussed the other day, there were far fewer race-based laws under apartheid than there are right now in South Africa. And the race-based laws under apartheid, by and large, were directed at enforcing racial separation, not large-scale farm seizures by the government without any limiting principle whatsoever.
Activists on the Left know they have the losing argument in this debate, which is why they’re now resorting to some of the most pathetic tactics imaginable. The New Republic, for instance, just ran a story in which they dug up the old tweets of one of these white refugees. Here’s that bombshell:
The headline is: “One of Trump’s Afrikaner ‘Refugees’ Is Quite the Antisemite.” Yes, they went rooting through his tweets to smear him, all because he’s white and he’s fleeing persecution in South Africa. He’s allegedly an anti-semite, so he needs to go back. Of course, if this is the new standard, then I have very bad news about 90% of the refugees that were admitted under the Biden administration. Muslims from the Middle East and Africa are not exactly big fans of the Jews, generally speaking. The New Republic probably doesn’t seem to realize how this would go, but it’s pretty obvious.
Meanwhile, other luminaries on the Left are reduced to making explicit threats against these white refugees. Here’s one viral example:
This isn’t some random person, by the way. She has more than 100,000 followers on TikTok, and she’s openly threatening these white refugees with murder, solely on the basis of their skin color. There’s not even any attempt to sugar-coat it. She thinks white people should die. And there are a lot of videos like this on TikTok at the moment; most of them adopt the same gleeful tone. We saw this with Karmelo Anthony, then we saw it with Rodney Hinton, and now we’re seeing it here. And if you listen really carefully — the most telling part of the video, by far, happens around the 31-second mark. That’s the moment where you can hear a very faint smoke-alarm chirp in the background, while this woman is threatening to murder white people. This whole thing is just too on the nose.
Actually, there is one exception to that rule. Over at CNN, they’ve managed to fix the smoke detectors. But they definitely haven’t gotten rid of the genocidal anti-white commentators. Watch:

The obvious problem here is that, despite being given a national television platform, this woman clearly has no idea what she’s talking about. She thinks the Afrikaners came from Germany. She’s a complete imbecile, like pretty much everyone else on CNN. Her sole purpose is to demonize white people. And she’s going to do that, one way or the other, every time she gets on television.
But there’s actually a bigger problem with this woman’s response. Let’s pretend for a second that the Afrikaners actually did come from Germany. She’s implying that, in that scenario, the white people could go back there, and she’d be fine with it. But of course, the Left wouldn’t be fine with that. Take a look at what the Left has done to Germany in the past couple of decades, if you don’t believe that. It’s unrecognizable. And any white person who complains is immediately labeled “far-right.” They’re condemned as white supremacists. The national security services open counter-terrorist investigations into every single one of them.
The same is true in this country, of course. This is the funny thing about who is considered native or not, who is considered an invader or not. CNN commentators have no problem announcing that white people whose ancestors have been in the country for 20 generations should “go back home.” But try telling the Somalis in Minnesota to go back home. You’ll immediately be labeled a far-right bigot — even though the Somalis have only been here for a couple of decades. Some of them have been here for a couple of hours. But we’re told that the Somalis have every right to be here, while Americans — who can trace their lineage back several centuries — have to shut up and take it. No matter where they are, white people are always the colonizers, and have no legitimate claim to whatever land they’re on.
In other words, under the Left’s framework, white people are the only demographic on the planet that can never be considered truly at home or native to any country. We’ll be told that a white person’s “true home” is Western Europe. And yet if any white person in the UK claimed that it was a white country, they would be condemned. They say to us in America that this isn’t our land. So where is our land? They won’t follow that to its logical conclusion and say that Europe is the white man’s land. So where is it? The message is that there is literally no place on Earth that white people can claim is a legitimate homeland. A white man is native to nowhere. He is indigenous to nowhere. That’s strange isn’t it? Have you noticed that there is no country on the planet with white “indigenous people”? So where did white people come from? Did they fall out of the sky like rain? Did they magically spawn out of thin air? If a white person can trace his roots back to the 17th century in this country, does that make him a native American? If the answer is now, then where is his native homeland? And if he goes there, can he claim the title of native or indigenous? Can he say that the non-natives are invading or stealing?
The Left has no answer to any of these questions, because the terms “native” and “colonizer” and “invader” are all tools of manipulation. They don’t mean anything.
And of course, white people get this treatment even though they actually bring innovation, advancement, and infrastructure everywhere they go. And then once those white people leave, what happens? None of that infrastructure is maintained. Look at what happened after Portugal gave back Mozambique or Angola. Look at South Africa or Zimbabwe. Total disrepair follows when the alleged “colonizers” are kicked out. Why might that be? That’s a question you’re not supposed to ask, of course. But recently, I saw someone who took a crack at addressing it. Watch:
This is one of those conversations that, if you were leading South Africa at the moment, you’d probably take pretty seriously. Maybe you’d take a step back and wonder if 30 years of black supremacy is really an optimal substitute for maintaining the roads and the farms and the power grid. Maybe you’d recognize that a civilization that doesn’t understand the concept of maintenance, and which cannot build anything on its own, will inevitably collapse if it demonizes the handful of productive people who are sticking around. But of course, no one in South Africa is asking those questions at the moment. Instead, they’re demonizing the white people who are already out the door. And that means that, very soon, those white people will have a lot of company. South Africa is about to lose the few farmers it has left. No country in human history has ever survived something like that. And South Africa, the ultimate embodiment of DEI, will be no different.
