Many whites “stayed” in South Africa because they are stuck there. Most countries will not let them legally immigrate if they don’t have close relative citizens or millions to invest. Even if they are highly literate and with good job skills.
But if you are a “refugee” from Algeria, Yemen, Pakistan, etc you come right in and get on the dole. No literacy, no job skills, no problem. Just look at France or the UK.
This PC insanity makes me want to scream...
The whites in SOuth Africa were offered “sanctuary” in many Commonwealth countries; I believe they don’t want to give up their properties, and still have a better living than they’d have elsewhere (unlike in Zimbabwe). The trade-off is that you have to live in a bubble; the black leadership understands that at least during a transitional phase (which is dragging on endlessly), they need white professionals. They just can’t travel freely, the same way I wouldn’t in Newark - it resembles a “in which the Mau Maus won”.
Make that a “Kenya in which the Mau Maus won”.
