Don’t give them a penny or a grain of rice. They just use it to breed more mouths.

What a Croc this article is.

Zimbabwe is in trouble because they forcibly forced white farmers off the land, and gave the land to Black workers who don’t know what the hell they’re doing.

But apparently we aren’t allowed to say that Zimbabwe expropriated land from White farmers and forced them out.

So instead, they blame Zimbabwe’s farm problems on global warming.

While a drought may be a factor as well, the experienced white Farmers they forced out, would have known what to do to minimize the damage from drought. Since the black “farmers” don’t know what they are doing, the results are predictable. And have nothing to do with global warming.

Southern Africa has irregular rains. That’s why the white settlers built dams and irrigation systems, to prevent flooding in rainy season, and have water in dry season.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dams_in_South_Africa

But, dams need maintenance by competent civil engineers. They need silt removed. It’s work to keep them working.

Fueled by climate change widespread illicit sex, child marriages, socialism, despotism, tribalism, the expropriation of White-owned farmsteads, and rampant superstition, Zimbabwe's erratic harvests HIV epidemic causes farmers with HIV to struggle

There, fixed it!

Liberals really don't understand the true meaning of the word "cause."

Gotta actually LAUGH at this utter tripe. Western caused global warming harming Zimbabwe crops and HIV victims.

The modern media makes the guy in your pic look like a piker.

Odd that other African nations without socialism and rampant HIV are not affected by the climate.

If the editors had slipped “transgender” into that headline, they would hit a home run.

Why is it that certain continents are always filled with starving people decade after decade?

“I heard they were HIV positive and transgendered, organic farmers that are being unfairly targeted by climate change.”

Yep. The Enemy Media missed a couple of high points in this article, LOL!

They could’ve probably throw in diversion of water for the crops to save the Three-Toed Tree Toad for the whole manufactured catastrophic story! Oh, and blind kids. Throw them in there, too. *Rolleyes*

And the Enemy Media wonders why we all shout, ‘Fake News’ at every publication of their ridiculous tales!

“Why is it that certain continents are always filled with starving people decade after decade? Oh, and that no one dare answer that question.”

We have a relatively new (within 2 years) Section 8 housing complex in, ‘The People’s Republik of Madistan.’ It’s very nice; very modern with all the bells and whistles as far as appliances and laundry goes, in-house Daycare, a nice playground for the kiddies, etc.

This morning the News Anchorette stated that there have been EIGHTY police calls in those past 2 years, ranging from drug trafficking to weapons to people beating one another senseless in the street.

How will ‘Da Mayor’ solve this problem? He’ll be spending $160,000.00 in Taxpayer Dollars to hire additional security for the complex!

If you build it, they will come!

It’s SO frustrating!

I have a Baptist friend who went to a funeral for a man who died of AIDS. After listening to all of the accolades from his parents and friends this Baptist friend of mine said "he would not have died if he hadn't been butt f******".
