The failed state in South Africa is a blueprint for the USA if Americans don't make a change right away.
Other than natural disasters and major loss of life, Americans rarely pay attention to events occurring around the world — especially if it is a slow process, aided by the left. Such is the case with South Africa. With the end of Apartheid in the early 1990s, the African National Congress (ANC) won power in 1994 and has never relinquished it. What has happened since then has been the embodiment of Critical Race Theory in practice, with predictable results. Americans should pay attention to this, as it will be the endgame in the United States in the not too distant future.
South Africa is beating its carbon reduction goals handily as the power grid is increasingly causing rolling blackouts. The state-owned energy company Eskom provides 90 percent of the county's electricity. The blackouts and "load-shedding" are caused by an aging fleet of coal-fired plants that are continuously breaking down due to lack of maintenance, years of underinvestment, and systematic corruption. Eskom warned then-president Nelson Mandela's administration in 1998 that unless new and more sophisticated power plants were built immediately and infrastructure was upgraded, the electrical grid "would begin imploding within a decade." Between 2009 and 2018, multibillion-dollar contracts to build new power stations were awarded fraudulently to ANC-linked companies. The power plants are today largely dysfunctional, having been poorly constructed and filled with equipment that doesn't work. This is caused by the rampant fraud and corruption.
There were 104 confirmed cases of fraud and corruption registered with the South African Police Service over the year to March 2022, according to the energy company's financial statements. In November 2022, Eskom announced that police arrested two subcontractors for coal and diesel theft.

Nelson Mandela is worshipped by the left. He was much worse than our BLM arsonists. He was the head of the terror wing of the ANC and worked with the Soviet Union to learn bomb making and terror strategies. He was responsible for over 150 bombings in South Africa. I am sure that BLM would like to copy his methods.
Communists are parasites who feed on a healthy host until it is sucked dry. We’ve seen this cycle repeated over and over again.
Give a conservative a pile of bricks and it becomes a country. Give a liberal a country and it becomes a pile of bricks.
It looks like it has been prepped for China to move in.
One thing’s for sure, I’m not gonna play Sun City.
All white South Africans should be given asylum in the USA. Let the remaining animals wallow in their own shyte and misery.
I don’t think their is a bright future for them in America. Abortion and murder iis really taking a toll. Maybe too the powers that be bringing in millions of illegals to take their place?
Canada is beating everyone to it- they’ve gone in and offered asylum to the nurses and others workers to help fill the shortages in Canada
The United States did it. We did everything in our power, with the help of Hollywood, to get rid of Apartheid. To be sure, I am not a fan of apartheid. The opposition was Black Nationalist Communists (Mandela) politically, who were just as Racist (yes they do the same stuff as Apartheid or worse-see farm rapes and murders). We picked the side of the Communist Racists instead of the Democratic Racists. The United States, and especially the Democratic Party within the United States, owns the destruction of South Africa.
Good thing the Democrats and Left wing nuts learned what happens when you mess around with other nations and what happens when you support communists and Racists..........ROFLOL-NOT
Excellent article. I recently had an opportunity to go to Sourh Africa on business, I declined and haven’t regretted it.
“Good thing the Democrats and Left wing nuts learned what happens when you mess around with other nations and what happens when you support communists and Racists..........ROFLOL-NOT”
They didn’t need to learn. They already knew.
I’ve spent time in SA. My first visit was in 1981...my most recent was in 2018.That certainly doesn’t make me an expert but from what I’ve seen what’s happening there was *absolutely* predictable. The affluence that the white man brought to SA will eventually disappear completely and the country will then come to closely resemble the Democratic Republic of Congo,which I’ve also visited.Trust me,ugly doesn’t even come close to describing the DRC.
South Africa is Obama’s model for the US
What they learned was they like it. Unfettered power is intoxicating.
Old not-funny joke.
Q: What’s the difference between SA and Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia)
A: About 40 years
Spring.
*The affluence that the white man brought to SA will eventually disappear completely and the country will then come to closely resemble the Democratic Republic of Congo*
Those things don’t matter when you have the obvious wrongs being implemented on a daily basis. Ripe for dissension. The left is better at curbing dissension because they use more of the weapons available.
Think of the guys that hit on every woman. It may be offensive but does that stop them? Insensitivity has no effect on the offender. Terrible analogy I know
White people are being murdered...that is what is going on.
If I was the ccp, I’d be destabilizing South Africa so that the ccp would swoop in and both restore order and fill a vacuum, setting the stage for influence dominance on the continent.
The strategic advantage is just one of many benefits.
IMHO. Just sayin’.
