The Trump administration’s support for these claims, while stopping other new refugee arrivals, has inflamed uncomfortable conversations about how far racial reconciliation still has to go, three decades after the end of white minority rule.
The US president’s offer was a “godsend”, said Kyle, now a salesman working remotely for an overseas company: “I’ve got white children, they’re at the bottom of the hiring list here. So, there is no future for them. And the sad thing is they don’t even know what apartheid is.”
White Afrikaner governments racially segregated every aspect of life from relationships to where people were allowed to live during apartheid, repressing South Africa’s Black majority while keeping the white minority safe and much better off.
South Africa remains deeply unequal, more than 30 years since the system ended. The black South African unemployment rate is 46.1%, for example, compared with 9.2% for white people.
I’ve got white children, they’re at the bottom of the hiring list here. So, there is no future for them. And the sad thing is they don’t even know what apartheid is.
If your children are old enough to work, and they don’t even know about your country’s most pressing issue that only ended like 30 years ago, then no wonder they’re at the bottom of the hiring list.
They’re ignorant fucks! Lol
I mean… he didn’t say they are at the bottom because they are white.
Maybe they are at the bottom of the list because they are dumb as rocks, and happen to be white. And he knows being dumb in America is no impediment, so he wants the asylum.
It’s absolutely implied by his phrasing, “I’ve got white children, they’re at the bottom of the hiring list here.”
This is explicitly stating that white children are at the bottom of the hiring list in the USA. The only identifier he gave of his children is that they’re white, and that is enough to put them at the bottom of the hiring list ‘here [USA]’.
My comment was a joke.
Trump’s main minion Elon is behind these whispers into Trump’s ear about his bringing over his “ilk”.
We don’t need more Nazis
Why would I want these ultra racist slavers to come here when the economy is tanking so they can buy up shit cheap?
Because that’s what amerikkka is all about.
You think these losers are going to be buying anything ?
We have these arseholes in Australia and they are barely capable of cleaning bogs.
They’ll get government handouts
Why would I want these ultra racist slavers to come here when the economy is tanking so they can buy up shit cheap?
Since you asked and now that I think about it, with educated and more open-minded Americans emigrating, I think Afrikaners will take their place instead…
I know what they’re going to do I’m asking why would I want them?
Any bets on how quickly these folks are fast tracked to Green Card status?
Knowing him he’ll probably allow them to get on that “Gold Card” track without the money as a show of “combating the horrible racial injustice” in South Africa.
Every accusation is a confession after all. So it would be very on brand for them to fast track granting these people status that allows them to vote so now they’ll be the ones with the “millions of illegals voting” for them.
Non-whites have 4x the employment rate and whites are whining about not being on hiring lists? And are they aware that Trump was partially elected because of people here not wanting them competing for same jobs?
What a mess we’ve made of our species
USA can take all the racists and the rest of us will take the American refugees. Then we can finish the wall from the outside.
Fuck me I don’t want these fuckers here.
I suspect that Trump offering asylum to Afrikaners has more to do with USA being pissed at SA for the Gaza case than him thinking there is a “South African Genocide”. He’s just trying to stir the pot but generally South Africans don’t take this seriously. Some people on here though…
It has added some new jokes at the braai. Also spawned arguments about who wants Elon the least.
Nice to see a fellow SAn here.
I don’t know, the whole “the blacks in South Africa have physically removed white land owners. It’s now illegal to be white in South Africa” shit was a major MAGA/qanon/Fox News talking point for a while.
I think this is truly just racist brain rot.
Owen Wilson is looking rough these days.
When a major political party has rallies with chants such as “shoot to kill, kill the Boer, kill the farmer”…
I’d say refugee status is appropriate.
There aren’t white farm workers in South Africa. Only black Africans are doing farm labor. So who is the ‘white farmer’? What does it mean? It’s the farm owner who gets all the product of the African farm labor and gives next to none of it to the farm laborers. Don’t try and condemn something you don’t understand.
A major political party with thousands of followers threatening to kill you is pretty simple understand.
You take them then. They are absolute pigs.
Happily, my best neighbors are from SA. I also dated a girl from SA.
You can have all the folks who chant death to the boar, death to the farmer. I’m sure you and that energy will mix well.
