Donald Trump has proved to be the political Rottweiler of right-wing Afrikaner groups, taking their fight to South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa.
They were quick to celebrate the US president's ambush of Ramaphosa in the Oval Office, with the Solidarity Movement - which had toured the US to lobby the Trump administration - saying it welcomed the fact that South Africa's "enormous problems have been placed on the international stage".
Ernst Roets, a leading personality on the Afrikaner right, showed his admiration for the US president.
"Donald Trump made history today," he said in a post on X, before thanking him for showing videos of firebrand opposition politician Julius Malema singing "Shoot the Boer (Afrikaner); Shoot the farmer" - and newspaper headlines of the killing of white farmers.
Solidarity's Jaco Kleynhans went further, saying Trump deserved a Nobel Prize for "putting the farm murder crisis on the international agenda".
But for leading Afrikaner political columnist Pieter du Toit the ambush showed that "months and years of exaggeration, hyperbole and misinformation fed into the American right-wing ecosystem by a range of South African activists had hit its mark".
Like many South Africans he praised Ramaphosa for his measured handling of the encounter in the White House, smiling when Trump was frowning.
But many people are angry with the right-wing groups, saying they have shown a lack of patriotism by...

Half the population believes their lies.

Their only hope at this point is to set the entire world on fire.
And they are going to try.

I’m afraid you are correct. Arming yourself and staying out of urban areas is probably the best choice.
“Ramaphosa survives mauling by Trump“
F’n BBC.
Actually he was confronted with truth and denied truth. Today in South Africa to give equal rights to whites is political suicide thus his denial of truth. But at the same time South Africa needs the whites skills and expertise to be a viable nation. Most of those whites love South Africa and just want to stay and prosper along with the blacks.
The ANC is a Marxist organization. That explains it all. You need a victim and an evil aggressor and thus today it is the white man. This comes directly out of the teachings of Marx and Engles and oddly Saul Alinsky. Marx and Engles were theorists but Saul was and activist that knew how to use theory on the street.
Exposing the truth is mauling according the BBC.
Yup! Necklaces for everybody!
The BBC’s angle is of course that Trump has been duped by right-wing Afrikaner groups and is repeating their talking points. But after reading the article it’s not clear that Trump claimed anything that wasn’t true. The Beeb says Ramaphosa survived the mauling, but if Trump’s points stood, then I’m not sure that’s a good characterization.
They always use “gotcha.” If one little detail is wrong, then the whole thing is wrong.
Trump showed a memorial with white crosses for all the murdered farmers. He referred to them as “roadside graves,” which is technically not correct, therefore everything Trump said is a lie, according to their logic.
It is really sad how the mainstream media doesn’t even pause for a moment to reflect on the suffering of people if they don’t fit their agenda. Blacks as well as whites are suffering enormously from the high rates of violent crime in South Africa and the collapse of the rule of law there, and the media simply doesn’t care.
All kinds of humiliations and maulings goin’ on out there today!
Have a Goodyear.
Talk about rabid dogs.
BBC needs putting down.
Getting the highest intensity spotlight possible focused on your ethnic cleansing efforts hardly qualifies as “surviving”. The US is publicly distancing itself from the South African government and that comes with severe consequences for South Africa’s economic stability and geopolitical status.

The BBC has called for the immediate release of two journalists working for the corporation in west Africa who were arrested by military authorities on suspicion of spying.
Farouk Chothia, a producer with the BBC’s African Service, and Ange Ngu Thomas, a local reporter who works for the BBC in Cameroon, were detained by authorities earlier this week and accused of spying. . .
The BBC said both men had secured permission to report from Bakassi from Cameroon’s communications minister, Professor Jacques Fame Ndongo.
However, a Cameroon communications ministry official claimed the two men had permission to report from Cameroon, but said that did not extend to Bakassi.
“What did they go to do in Bakassi? They were there as spies,” the official said.
“They were caught taking pictures of military installations, which, like in every other country, is strategic.”. . .
My man, you disappoint me. Posting a troll piece from the BBC?
My man, I post things I find interesting.
If it offends you, please file a complaint with the moderator and have me banned forever. You’d be doing me a favor.
My man.
Until then, I will continue to post things that I find interesting, and you should probably learn how to not click on things that offend you.
My man.
The fall of the BEEB is now completely; it isn't even good to use to wrap garbage in!
