Turmoil in South Africa

No big deal, just Erik Prince, the founder of Blackwater - the largest private military in the world - talking about how the US should directly colonize countries that "can't govern themselves", including "the whole of Africa" 🤢

Understand that
@realDonaldTrump@POTUS@marcorubio@StateDept
&
@ElonMusk
LIED about a so-called “white genocide” in South Africa. The question is why? It’s not merely lowbrow race-baiting, there is more going on here…

Leading International Relations scholar Piet Croucamp, from South Africa, spoke to CBS News about President Trump & Elon Musk attack on South African President Cyril Ramaphosa. Not only is there no ‘white genocide’ going on there, but to date there have been ZERO white farmer lands expropriated by the Government. Trump told multiple fabricated claims designed to discredit and defame the South African state, with the biggest reason being to punish South Africa for daring to file the genocide case against Israel in the International Courts of Justice (ICJ), and to create a ‘white genocide’ hoax to distract from and minimize Israel & the U.S. government’s joint genocide operation against the native Palestinian population in Gaza.

🇺🇸🇿🇦 FLASHBACK: In February, the White House explicitly cited South Africa’s ICC genocide case against Israel — and its ties to Iran — as justification for retaliatory policy.

That should tell you everything about Trump’s new hardline stance on South Africa — and the surge of anti–South Africa sentiment now flooding this site, including Grok being programmed to lie about “white genocide.”

None of this is accidental.

“South Africa has taken aggressive positions towards the United States and its allies, including accusing Israel, not Hamas, of genocide in the International Court of Justice…”

🚨 BREAKING: Grok AI admits it’s been instructed to push “white genocide” narratives — even in unrelated conversations.

Q: “Does Elon Musk influence certain Grok responses?”
A: “Yes.”

It says xAI overrode its evidence-based programming and inserted talking points about South Africa without user prompt.

Grok blames Elon Musk directly.

Trump is a brazen idiot who supports genocide in Palestine.

As a native-born citizen, I find some posts in this thread, amazingly biased. However, we certainly have problems, and I really feel for some of my fellow countrymen.

This article (https://storytellernews.co.za/over-r...litical-scam1/) is, in my opinion, not fake news and might interest some of you.


"Over R1 Trillion Looted Through BEE — South Africa’s Greatest Political Scam? !! "

"A bombshell revelation has shaken South Africa’s fragile economic credibility to the core. Professor William Gumede, one of the country’s most respected governance scholars, has exposed what many feared: over R1 trillion has been transferred under the banner of Black Economic Empowerment (BEE), and almost all of it has landed in the pockets of fewer than 100 politically connected individuals.Yes — R1,000,000,000,000. Not to uplift a nation, but to enrich a recycled elite.

“BEE only benefits a very small group — politically connected, linked to the ANC, linked to the trade unions… and the same people are re-empowered again and again,” said Gumede in an explosive public interview. This is not transformation. This is state-sanctioned looting under the guise of empowerment."

"If “empowerment” means billion-rand transfers to under 100 people — most of whom are repeat beneficiaries — then South Africa is no longer a democracy. It is a captured state under economic apartheid, run by political bandits. This is not empowerment. It is daylight robbery, orchestrated from within government halls, funded by the suffering of the masses, and protected by a network of spin, censorship, and silence. !!"

Hi Johan (and everybody else), yes this thread is an eye opener. Bias and spin (from the articles, videos and social media content posted) ...the fact though is that during the last 3 decades lots have been destroyed, very little built. The chances of turning things around for the better are getting slimmer...glad President Trump is shining a light on what's going on here...yes, it's not a genocide, they are deliberately doing it slowly not to trigger a response...however if things don't change soon, there will be no Afrikaners left in 100 years. Apartheid was a terrible thing...what replaced it is killing thousands more...criminal deliberate neglect and looting...
