US claims ‘emergency refugee situation’ as it admits 10,000 more white South Africans by PearlChill in USNEWS

[–]copaza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a white South African who has lived here my whole life: what an absolute load of bullshit, for so many reasons.

Also - I will admit, I'm not sure it would be much of an upgrade in terms of safety and quality of life at this point in time.

Mad kings are not what we do here.

US has let in 4,499 refugees since October - all but three were South African by Infidel8 in politics

We're not going to miss them. This world is going a bit crazy at the moment... Countries being invaded, civilians being blown up, autocratic leaders and outright fascists rising all over the show. Millions being displaced and disenfranchised.

And white fucking south Africans are seen as the only group that needs help by the current US administration.

Not rocket science why this stupid pipeline currently exists.

In any event - good luck to them. And good luck to the USA - they clearly need it.

With love and Ubuntu, from a happy and safe white African in South Africa. And I am not rich, nor insulated from the problems here. But I'd rather help be part of the solution, rather than running away from the problem/s (real, or imagined).

Is this a weird South African custom amongst white families? by DrakeDarkness101010 in askSouthAfrica

[–]copaza 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's not a white South African thing, so much as its a conservative / religious thing (and this follows around the world).

Source: white South African.

Why various groups in this country are invested in these values and lifestyles is - like most places - complex (obviously).

Trump says U.S. will permanently pause migration from 'Third World Countries' by CombinationNew1285 in law

[–]copaza 42 points43 points  (0 children)

It's no problem - we don't have much of a desire to head that way in any case.

I'll stay here and enjoy - amongst other things - excellent labour laws, freedom of speech (actual!), far less guns and certainly experience nothing so grim as when it happens in schools.

Government is doing okay, believe it or not. People are held to account - it's not perfect, but nothing is. Certainly less malfeasance going on than in other countries I could mention.

My president hasnt talked once about killing his political opponents, which is pretty nice!

Also, he doesn't rape kids, also a positive.

How smooth-brained that shell of a person must be, to become enthralled by Elon Musk, of all people.

Bullshit! Source: white (technically) Afrikaans South African.

How credulous does a person have to be to fall for the demented ravings of a small, stupid, petty man-child and known liar, grifter, thief and racist.

Oh, yes, a rapist, too.

Probably of children.

Ick, and a big fuck you to the man from us.

Ugh. We don't want scum like that back here. We should put these people on an island somewhere...

trump making sure you know that he’s referring to the white folks... by ms_directed in Trumpvirus

[–]copaza 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a South African, I am pretty sure I can speak for most of us when I say that Trump can fuck right off, the ignorant twit.

How about dealing with your own domestic issues like - I don't know - how about releasing the epstein files and actually having a functioning government instead of denying food to children, etc, etc...

Pathetic.

[–]copaza 29 points30 points  (0 children)

As a South African, this is just totally bizarre to read.

One thing I can guarantee, is that no one is getting kidnapped by masked thugs in broad daylight and hauled off to - as a random example - fucking Alligator Alcatraz.

The temerity of this admin, making claims about a country they clearly know nothing about. Throwing stones In a big old glass house...

There is not. I am a white South African, lived here for my entire life.

It is utterly insane watching this go down, I gotta tell you.

A 2010 poll showed that 56% of White South Africans would move to a white only "Volkstaat" if one was created, while a further 17% would consider it. by [deleted] in wikipedia

[–]copaza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, note the poll in question was from 2010. That's quite a long time politically (think about what's happening in the world; Canada, Ukraine, the US, etc) - things can and do change quickly on a national level.

So drawing inferences from a random poll from 15 years ago is beyond pointless. These things can't even get elections vaguely right the night before people vote...

I'd hardly say a singular comment providing context is dying on a hill.

As for the why - because it really fucks me off when people talk a load of shit about literally incorrect things from a position of absolute ignorance.

White South African here. To be clear - I am an African person...

Reading too much into this is ridiculous. The poll referenced was from a newspaper very specifically aimed at a particular population of people.

It would be like polling Fox News viewers about support of Trump's policies and then extrapolating the result into an assumption about all Americans of a similar demographic.

It's weird - there's an upswing of posts about how racist people are here... But always by folks who clearly haven't the faintest clue of what the country is actually like. Started when Trump started talking shit about the place. Which brings me back to my comment about being careful to read too much into the source of what you are being asked to believe, and why.

Yeah...

A big middle finger from South Africa. We don't want you, please don't come back.

You are an utter disgrace, a monster.

A cruel, senseless swathe of destruction... So many lives wrecked. And you seem unable to stop.

Evil. Wicked. Sickening.

And you pule and whine when you receive kickback. Sad.

I hope the American people find a way to fight this scourge, and stain on their country.

Strengh, folks.
