The MSM falls all over itself angrily advocating the targeted killings of White farmers is NOT a genocide

https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/21/politics/fact-check-white-farmers-south-africa-trump

Even when White farmers have been killed in South Africa, it has often been unclear that the crime was motivated by race. A South African government commission in 2003 found that the primary motive behind most attacks on farms was robbery. South African experts have reached similar conclusions this year.

Apparently what matters is motivation. Take heart White South Africans. When a mob breaks down your door in the middle of the night, drags your family out to be tortured and murdered, its cuz you had stuff they wanted! Why so upset? Just let your family get tortured and murdered, we have to prove Trump wrong!!!

In 2020, late in Trump’s first term, the State Department released a report on human rights in South Africa in which it said, “Some advocacy groups asserted white farmers were racially targeted for burglaries, home invasions, and killings, while many observers attributed the incidents to the country’s high and growing crime rate.” The State Department went on to surface arguments against the notion of race-motivated farm attacks. It wrote, “According to the Institute for Security Studies, ‘farm attacks and farm murders have increased in recent years in line with the general upward trend in South Africa’s serious and violent crimes.’”

It's not targeted killings, its just random violence against White farmers, and who cares anyway, all of South Africa is killing each other all the time and this is just a drop in the bucket.

During the Wednesday meeting, Trump tried to bolster his case by making apparent reference to an expropriation law Ramaphosa signed this year in part to help remedy the racial inequality in land ownership that still plagues South Africa three decades after the end of apartheid. (A 2017 report found that White people owned 72% of the country’s farms and agricultural holdings by individual landowners.) The new law has been attacked by Trump ally Elon Musk, who is from South Africa.

The law requires the government to provide “just and equitable” compensation, in most cases, to a landowner whose land is expropriated. But it also allows seizures without compensation in certain cases – from owners of any race – when the seizure is deemed “in the public interest” and certain conditions are met, such as the land being abandoned, the land being unused because the owner’s main purpose is to benefit from its appreciation, or the land having a market value the same or lower than government investments or subsidies in it.

Hey! South Africa hasn't taken anyone's land...yet. Stop calling attention to this new law we just passed to take farms from private land owners.

So really the land grabs and the take back our land is just scapegoating and looking for a lifeline. The denying of any of this happening is the same. Blaming the past and being professional victims is the same. They don’t care about their citizens. None of their citizens. They care about votes and blaming everything on the white minorities and the past horrible legacy of apartheid is all they have left. I am glad they went to Trump. I’m glad America responded so now the whole world can see. How embarrassing - I love my country and its people.
@TangledUpInBlue thank you.

A neat little Chat gpt summary of the wonderful ANC government.

The African National Congress (ANC) has governed South Africa since the end of apartheid in 1994. While it played a pivotal role in dismantling apartheid and establishing a democratic nation, its tenure has been marred by systemic corruption, mismanagement, and state capture, leading to significant economic and social challenges.

💰 State Capture and Corruption
Under President Jacob Zuma (2009–2018), South Africa experienced extensive state capture, where private interests, notably the Gupta family, exerted undue influence over state institutions. This period is estimated to have cost the country up to R250 billion (approximately $17 billion USD) and reduced GDP growth by about 4% annually .

Key institutions were compromised:

South African Revenue Service (SARS): Leadership changes led to a R100 billion revenue shortfall, with Gupta-linked companies receiving illegal tax refunds .
Politics Web
State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs): Entities like Eskom and Transnet were plagued by corruption, mismanagement, and inflated contracts, leading to financial instability and service delivery failures .
Financial Times
Law Enforcement Agencies: The Hawks, National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), and South African Police Service (SAPS) were manipulated for political gain, undermining the rule of law and enabling impunity .

🏛 Institutional Erosion and Patronage
The ANC's governance has led to:

Public Sector Decline: Skilled professionals were purged, and appointments were based on loyalty rather than merit, weakening institutional capacity .
Helen Suzman Foundation
Media Manipulation: The South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) was turned into a propaganda tool, suppressing critical reporting .
news.uct.ac.za
Financial Mismanagement: The ANC faced insolvency, accumulating over R200 million in debt, and struggled to pay staff salaries, resorting to crowdfunding .
Wikipedia
⚠ Economic and Social Impact
The ANC's policies and mismanagement have led to:

High Unemployment: Approximately 33%, with youth unemployment exceeding 60%.
Deteriorating Infrastructure: Frequent power outages and unreliable public services.
Rising Crime Rates: Increased violence and organized crime, partly due to weakened law enforcement .
ISS Africa
📉 Declining Popularity
In the 2024 general elections, the ANC received just over 40% of the vote, marking a significant decline from nearly 70% in 2004. This reflects widespread disillusionment with its governance .
Le Monde.fr

🔍 Conclusion
While the ANC was instrumental in ending apartheid and establishing democracy, its prolonged rule has been characterized by corruption, mismanagement, and state capture. These issues have undermined economic growth, eroded public trust, and hindered the delivery of essential services, leaving South Africa grappling with significant challenges.
The shocking thing is that they have farms. Look at how they let these once thriving farms go to waste. But wait let’s take and loot more under the guise of caring for our people!

KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) Farms

In the Empangeni and Eshowe districts, over 21 farms were purchased by the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform (DRDLR) since 2004. These properties, once productive in sugarcane and citrus farming, now lie fallow. Infrastructure such as irrigation systems and farmhouses have been vandalized or left to deteriorate, resulting in job losses and economic decline in the region.

Eastern Cape Farms

The DRDLR acquired four farms in the Buffalo City Metro area for approximately R29.1 million, intending to support emerging black farmers. However, these farms have become derelict. For instance, Hopewell Dairy Farm, once producing over 1,000 liters of milk daily, now produces less than 50 liters. Eversly Farm and Echoing Hill Farm are similarly abandoned, with equipment left unused and infrastructure in disrepair.

Ntingwe Tea Estate

Acquired as part of land reform efforts, Ntingwe Tea Estate in KwaZulu-Natal has faced significant challenges. Despite a government investment exceeding R150 million, the estate has been left unmanaged, with no tea harvested for several years, leading to financial losses and unfulfilled potential.

State-Owned Farms Nationwide

Minister Thoko Didiza reported that approximately 896 state-owned farms, covering around 700,000 hectares across provinces like Eastern Cape, Free State, KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo, Mpumalanga, Northern Cape, and North West, are underutilized or vacant. The government plans to lease these lands to the public on 30-year terms, with an option to buy, aiming to revitalize them.

@TangledUpInBlue It's so infuriating to read. How do you mismanage farm land???

For God's sake, distribute it and get it productive. This is not hard, and it should not take that long.
@SumKindaMunster sadly it’s every aspect of our country. The railways, the airline, the power the water the schools the police the roads. It’s goes on and on and on.
@SumKindaMunster yeah it’s starting to look that way, so sad. Such a beautiful country filled with. Some great people of all races. It could’ve been co good.

You realize, of course, that if the farmer and his family have all been murdered, the farm IS officially abandoned!!! 😢😢😢

I watched the Trump conference with the South African Prime Minister...and I felt as though the Prime Minister was lying his ball off ALL through his denials of genocide.

@4meAndyou A good rule of thumb is that if the media is falling all over itself trying to dispute or discredit such things, that usually means there is some truth to it. They don't want you looking into it on your own, lest you draw your own conclusions.
I wish I could repost this.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Lol “random violence” with a clear premeditated target in mind is not random violence.

If that’s the case then all violence that has happened throughout all time has been random violence.

The world just continues to edify The Bible

“In the last days there will be lawlessness, and they will call right wrong, and wrong right…”

Society itself begins to make Biblical prophecy come true with their horrendous behavior. But expect something that logically should never come to pass, starts coming to pass, yet people shouldn’t believe in something like The Bible. Yet they can give no explanation for how these virtually illogical precedents coming to pass, and how they’re existing in the first place somehow completely coincide with the ancient scriptures.

CNN lied and has for many years.

It isn’t a genocide.

Own a dictionary?
@trollslayer dude really Wikipedia is ok for finding other sources at the bottom, we weren’t even allowed to use it at varsity. However the more sources you look at, the better.
trollslayer · 46-50, M
@SumKindaMunster there were other sources listed. Everyone is free to edit.
trollslayer · 46-50, M
@TangledUpInBlue agreed. Wikipedia is at best a place to get the basic background and point in the direction of other sources.

@Rolexeo Unfortunately, in Gaza, those two populations overlap heavily.
wildbill83 · 41-45, M
@Rolexeo If actual genocide was their intent, Israel wouldn't be supplying them with utilities, supplies, aid, etc. & nor would they be using precision munitions...

they'd be using cluster bombs and flatten them for good...
