Gee look at that a white South African plutocrat holds the reins and suddenly the architects of Apartheid are “refugees”
Amazing.
The US is losing whatever sliver of credibility it has left.
Hopefully the world understands it’s not the US, it’s Trump and his people.
I’m saying this as an American who stands firmly opposed to every horrific thing Trump and his fascist goons are doing. However, I can only imagine if I was a politician or business in another country, I’d feel like I’d no longer be able to trust anything the US does or says.
We understood that the first time. And then you went and you elected him again, post jan6th, post criminal convictions, post covid and post project 2025. (collective you, not you in particular).
Not this time, this time is on y’all.
I understand that (and am American myself) and still don’t think the US as a country should have any credibility. We simply can’t be trusted. The good people among us are not in control.
The US political system is simply poorly designed and political brinkmanship appears to always be a winning move. Before Trump McConnell was thoroughly destroying America’s reliability.
It isn’t. It was done by all the Americans who voted for him as well as all the Americans who chose not to vote at all.
Illegal Africans? Send them back! Get the illegal Africans out of our country. Starting with FElon Musk!
What counts as a refugee in the Trump administration:
🙍🏿♂️nope
🙍🏾♂️nope
🙍🏽♂️nope
🙍🏼♂️yep
🙍🏻♂️yep, unless you’re Asian
Also doesn’t count if you’re an indigenous American.
Because Navajo aren’t especially dark-skinned most of the time, as you can see from the photo in this article.

Ah, the white refugee grift never fails to amuse. Trump’s clown decree isn’t about “saving” anyone—it’s apartheid cosplay for fascist optics. Let’s resettle the platinum-tier colonizers who still think land theft is a flex. Meanwhile, actual refugees drown in red tape while these chucklefucks get VIP passes.
But hey, hypocrisy is the point. It’s a loyalty test: how blatantly can we rewrite oppression as victimhood before the bootlickers cheer? Spoiler: they’ll always cheer.
Elon’s drafting eviction notices for Black South Africans right now. History’s a flat circle, and the fascist playbook’s on loop.
The best part of this particular grift is that, unsurprisingly considering it’s rapidly swirling around the toilet bowl, white South Africans don’t want to resettle in the U.S.
Apparently whatever horrible, horrible cruelty they face in South Africa isn’t actually cruel enough to seek asylum in America.
It’s almost poetic, isn’t it? The self-proclaimed victims of “reverse oppression” can’t even muster the courage to follow through on their own grift. They’d rather cling to their crumbling privilege in South Africa than face the reality of being just another immigrant in a country that fetishizes “whiteness” but despises foreigners.
The irony is suffocating. They cry persecution, but the U.S. asylum system—designed to brutalize the desperate—doesn’t even register their plight as legitimate. Maybe because it’s not. Their “suffering” pales next to the systemic violence they’ve upheld for generations.
It’s not that they don’t want to leave; it’s that they know they’d lose their pedestal elsewhere. No apartheid nostalgia tour can fix that.

I don’t have the personal experience with them that it sounds like you do, but I’m guessing if this offer were given by, say, New Zealand, at least some of them would take them up on it and do what Cubans in Miami do- pretend they’ve brought Cuba with them and still talk about how they’ll take Cuba back someday. Because New Zealand is not the shithole America is. It’s quite nice.
I’m sure you’re right overall, but I’m also sure “America is a massive shithole and getting worse by the day” is also a big factor here.
This is so disconnected from the Afrikaners that they have largely rejected it.
They want the land. That’s the point. It’s a multi-generational fight to hold the land.
It’s a lesson that should be learned about Gaza. It’s not about quality of life, it’s about the 3 most important points of any real estate deal: location, location, location.
More so that my phone barely speaks English and I was out dong other stuff and didn’t double check before hitting send.
You are making me very tempted to go through your entire post history and start pointing out typos, but I’ll just go with this one five posts from the top where you forgot to put a period at the end of a sentence.
I guess you were worked up at the time.
(You also forgot an apostrophe, but I was trying to be nice.)
Punctuation is cool but if I make the separation of sentences that clear then it is readable and I don’t feel the need to correct that
There is no need to be standoffish, I was not making fun of the user above
