These photos of a South African farm show the effects of the country’s land reform.

I got these two photos from this link:

Original: https://martinplaut.com/2024/09/02/the-utter-failure-of-the-south-africas-agricultural-reforms/

Archive: https://web.archive.org/web/20240902055937/https://martinplaut.com/2024/09/02/the-utter-failure-of-the-south-africas-agricultural-reforms/

This is the first photo. The caption says, “Irrigated fields of potatoes and other vegetables at Dawn Valley farm in 2002, six years before the land claim settlement. (Source: Google Earth Pro).”

This is the second photo. The caption says, “A satellite image of the same fields in 2022, shows few signs of any cultivation. (Source: Google Earth Pro).”

Zulu’s don’t eat potato’s.

They eat people, especially White people.

They are about to find out how much they need white people.

One just has to look at what happen in other African countries.

Welcome to Rodesia! The breadbasket of Africa. Oh, wait, it’s Zimbabwe now.

Looks like the native population will soon starve.

Their USAID back door native millionaires have long since left for Europe.

Here's one of those fun facts about South Africa...
The total population of South Africa is around 50 million, of which it is estimated that indigenous groups represent approximately 1%. These are the Khoekhoe and San, who live in the Kalahari and around the Kimberly area. All the rest of Black South Africans, about 40 million, come from somewhere else. The Zulus are about 24%, the Xhosa are about 16%. The Zulu's invaded in 1879, The Xhosa began trickling in during the 1400's. Mostly nobody's from there originally.

Compare that with the pro-Hamas psychopaths who tore down and burned the American flag while putting the flag of a foreign entity (i.e. “Palestine”).

The Zulus are about the only ones there that aren’t the problem.

The farms are reverting back to what they were before the Afrikaners inhabited the land and made it productive.

Zulus were there long before that. And they pretty much dislike the ANC.

Heh, the DUmmies over at the DUmp are head over heels in love with *their* church for it’s stand on not helping resettle the White refugees.

They think it’s awesome.

Discrimination against whites (and straights and Christians) is the only acceptable for of discrimination these days. The visceral hatred of whites is staggering and should be taken seriously.

All the south African people I’ve ever known have been cool people. They’re the kind we WANT here.

That’s not true, not funny, not clever, and disgusting!

The Zulus were never cannibals, they got along well with the Afrikaners, and always used to side with them! It was Winnie Mandela’s stooges who threatened, tortured, necklaced and killed many to get the rest to vote for the ANC candidates and not the whites!

Don’t post about things you don’t know and/ or understand!

No they haven’t! They’re still there screaming about killing the Afrikaners.

Where did you get these supposed “facts” from?

The Xhosa were brought into what is now RSA by the Zulus, as slaves, after being conquered in war, by them!

Anyone wanting a FACTUAL history lesson… ask me!

That used to be 100% factually true, but then Winnie Mandela and her stooges went around necklacing them and turn some.
Thanks for being an accurate poster!

Those could easily be California ag land due to federal water cut-off from farmers.
