That’s what my wife’s South African cousins are doing - they waited until their parents died, knowing they would never want to leave themselves.
I was referring to Afrikaneers who might be too old to start over, after having everything taken away. A young man is in a different spot in his life and can rebuild if he loses everything. Somebody who is a senior is not in that position. Losing everything may mean losing everything permanently and the gamble may be that they will die before the South African government can take everything.
Many have at least an undergrad University degree and some have at least one graduate degree. And STILL they are incapable of running a nation, keeping the electricity running, and having potable water to drink and wash in.
I am aware of the limitations of some blacks, for whatever reason they are limited.
If slavery was still around, those South African Marxists would be selling their neighbors to the highest bidder.
Wishing your wife's cousins good luck in getting out!
SPOT ON
Can’t say for certain - I know two of her cousins are already here (Austin area), and most of their kids have already left.
There are many kinds of different reasons offered; none of them sane, nor good. But it's their choice, even when it means breaking up a close knit family.
IN A FEW MONTHS
Rhodesia and South Africa once the bread basket of Africa is no longer this. They destroyed and also killed the white farmers. Thus it all has failed.
Welcome to starvation and death. You did it to yourself!
Yet they believe that THEY out rank the Afrikaners who have been there for about 400 years and developed that country!
And even most blacks, whose ancestors came there centuries ago, can't match anywhere NEAR the 400 year count of the Afrikaners!
Oh some are in Texas; good for them! There actually ARE a LOT of Afrikaners IN Texas; many in the DFW area and close by towns!
They are Afrocentrics. According to Afrocentrics, Africans built the world and interlopers, which would be us, took everything away from them.
Sometimes it is amusing to listen to them, but it is all bs that some Africans believe to try and explain how they can be the first of people but have built nothing.
The middle aged ones have no excuse. They can build a life still elsewhere if they wanted to. They still have thirty year working lives yet.
The ANC are absolute scumbags, but that debate/interview was annoying to watch because the guy cut the ANC woman off very quickly and didn’t let her speak
Choke and die, you commie piece of crap.
White Boer farmers, come to America and raise lots of White babies.
Even if you are a senior, as long as you have family, you are still useful in helping your family settle and build something.
Zim went from ‘drive out the farmer’ to begging for food in 18 months because they started in mid-season; by the harvest the following year no food. Same here. Fall 2026 is the terminus for SA.
Yes, that IS true, but they did NOT originally come up with that garbage! Hakeem Jeffries’ uncle, Leonard Jeffries did! It’s a CRAZY black American idea that goes back many decades now. And that tripe spread all over the world and was expanded upon.
