The Christian Science MonitorBy Kate Bartlett ContributorApril 16, 2025Zenia Pretorius was still in bed one Saturday morning in February when her phone started lighting up with excited messages from friends and family.She soon learned why. American President Donald Trump had just signed an executive order offering certain white South African farmers – her family among them – refugee status in the United States.It was “like a miracle had been dropped from the sky,” she recalls.
WTF!
So let me get this straight... he is throwing Latinos by the plane loads for fleeing oppression and he opens his arms to White racists!
Since he took office in January, the president and his allies, including South Africa-born adviser Elon Musk, have acted as a global megaphone for the fears of farmers like the Pretoriuses – that white people have no place in the new South Africa.
This is so blatantly racist! But it fits right in with Musk. PBS News Hour writes,
One of President Donald Trump’s first actions of his new term was to halt the arrival of all refugees coming into the United States. Yet there’s one group he’s made a point of welcoming: the white South Africans known as Afrikaners.“Any Farmer (with family!) from South Africa, seeking to flee that country for reasons of safety, will be invited into the United States of America with a rapid pathway to Citizenship. This process will begin immediately!” Trump wrote on his Truth Social account last month.
I can't believe that there hasn't been more of an out cry!
"The staff at the embassy were exceptionally friendly," said Mark, a South African farmer who did not wish his family name to be published as the process is confidential. "I could feel they had empathy."
According to Reuters and they go on to write,
U.S. President Donald Trump issued a February 7 executive order that called for the U.S. to resettle Afrikaner refugees. It said Afrikaners, who are descendants of mostly Dutch early settlers, were "victims of unjust racial discrimination".The order came after Trump had suspended all U.S. refugee admissions, citing security and cost concerns. Thousands of Afghans, Congolese and others fleeing conflict were blocked after they had been vetted and cleared.
So it is okay for White Christians to come here but... but... not Blacks, Latinos, and Muslims.
Not one word about the hundred years of discrimination against Black South Africans. If any of these white genocidal maniacs leave South Africa to come here I hope the government seizes their land and distributes it amongst the people. Let them come here as poor as the people who were kept in poverty for years.
ReplyDeleteP.S Of course I didn't expect white racist fascists to say a word about the discrimination that Black people faced. Perhaps the ones who come here will be the new boots on the street as they are trained to despise anyone different than themselves. Racist Pigs Stay In South Africa!
