I’m gonna go out on a limb here and predict a mysterious famine will hit South Africa in the next few years. Bono and Peter Gabriel will have benefit concerts.

The end of South Africa.

That was 24 years ago.

Given the corrupt oligarchy (dictatorship?) that is Russia, how will SA farmers do any better than Russian farmers? Russians have been farming Russian land for centuries before the Boers even existed. Surely they know as well as anyone how to reap bountiful harvests.

I very much doubt that what holds Russia back from being the breadbasket it could be is a lack of farmers.

"Rhodesians never die," the old song says. Except that they do. I've read articles making a compelling case that the number of whites murdered in Zimbabwe was massively underreported.

White South Africans, and black South Africans from minority tribes, had better pack up and get out while they can.

“Leave. People of substance: leave South Africa. You can make money somewhere else. At least you and your children will be alive and that is what counts. Let these bassturds run South Africa into the ground and have their killing fields without you. Commies all.”

It’s my guess that most white land owners have been preparing for this and have a plan. Many will relocate to Australia or Canada I think. As soon as the constitution is amended blacks will swarm the land and strip out everything sellable, copper, plumbing, you name it. The country will go down the toilet fast.

I’d rather have the white South African middle class immigrate here, than muslim “refugees” which Obama seemed to prefer.

Part of this issue is declining population in Russia (at 144-million presently). If you go out into the rural regions, there’s just not that much enticement to stay local as a kid, and be a farmer. If you had to go and accept migrants or immigration....of all choices, I think the SA farmers would be the absolute best choice.

“The end of South Africa.”

All too correct - we’ve seen this movie before.

There will be bloodshed, all the whites will leave, all land will be confiscated.
Then within 10 years, South Africa will be just like Zimbabwe.

I know a lot of South Africans. They are getting their children out if they can afford to. The wealthy ones are always wearing a ton of jewelry when they arrive, and none when they leave. Their children know to court for marriage when they’re here in the USA. The poorer ones pool their money to send their daughters here to find a life, and hopefully create a refuge for some of the rest of the family when things start burning back home.

I also know a lot of black South Africans. They tend to be the children of tribal priests and royalty. Some of them are bright, and they all seem to get along with the white S.A. who are here, but they are not afraid to return home. The future is good in S.A. if you are at the top of black society.

The black masses are the ones that cause the problems. When they come here, they don’t fit in. They are very low IQ, do stupid things, have their financial support withdrawn, and go home. They have that predatory animal look in their eyes — the one that reminds you of just how useful the 2nd Amendment can be.

The Chinese are smart African colonizers. They found a system that works and is tailored to the particulars of African politics.

They give huge loans, move in Chinese laborers then when the country can’t meet the loan obligations they forfeit the port, rail lines, etc. to Chinese ownership, management and labor. The politicians won’t complain because they were paid off up front and don’t want to expose their culpability in the loss of national assets.

The Chinese will colonize Africa and rule its people in a modern version of the age-old process of colonization: pay-off the rulers, evict their people.

Sure wish Pres. Trump would invite Afrikaners to settle here & become citizens.

Lib heads would explode when they saw “African Americans” with blond hair & blue eyes.

“South Africa's ANC to amend constitution to allow land expropriation”

Two decades after the white farmers are eliminated we will read that South African agriculture has failed because of - for the first time - 20 years of consecutive drought.
