The Left Indulges Anti-White Racism In South Africa Because They Want The Same Thing Here
The Federalist ^ | 05/22/2025 | BRIANNA LYMAN

If you want to understand where the left’s obsession with racial “equity” and “reparations” leads to, look no further than South Africa — where white farmers are allegedly being murdered and face discrimination for the crime of being white. But good luck finding honest coverage of what’s transpiring there in the corporate media, which are hellbent on covering up or dismissing the reality so that Americans don’t begin to question the real goal of the left’s racial resentment agenda.

A new law in South Africa means white farmers could have their land taken away without being paid for it. As I previously reported, “Though framed as a correction to apartheid-era injustice, the law has created an environment where racially motivated persecution may become institutionalized.”

Meanwhile, murders are commonplace, with white farmers having allegedly been targeted.

The murders are not random — they are part of a growing pattern of violence toward Afrikaners that South African officials don’t want to acknowledge and that Western media outlets actively work to obscure.

If you read the coverage from the propaganda press, you’d think the claims of genocide or state-sanctioned land theft were “unfounded,” according to PolitiFact’s Amy Sherman.

Writing for Vox, Nicole Narea dismisses the notion that white South Africans could qualify for asylum, claiming such arguments “ignores the history of apartheid” — as if historical injustices justify racial persecution today.

PBS News dismissed the increase in murders, saying in a post on X: “White farmers have been murdered in South Africa. But those murders account for less than 1% of the more than 27,000 annual murders nationwide.” According to PBS News, since “experts” said the deaths “do not amount to genocide,” it must not be genocide.

The reason this narrative is being peddled is because to acknowledge the real-life consequences of weaponized racial grievances would be to admit the left’s entire “equity” project is built on dangerous lies — that justice can be achieved through reverse-discrimination. It would mean that acknowledging that resentment, once legitimized and institutionalized, leads not to reconciliation, but bloodshed and chaos.

That’s why the media defends the South African government and buries the truth about violence: because South Africa is the prototype. What’s being done to white South Africans is the logical endgame of the left’s racial ideology. It’s what happens when equality under the law is replaced with equity enforced by the state.

This isn’t just confined to South Africa. In the United States, the signs are already here. Standardized testing is racist, DEI mandates are moral imperatives, and white Americans owe a perpetual debt to society. Reparation proposals are gaining traction.

The American left may not openly be calling for land seizures (yet), but the ideological foundation is the same: a moral justification for systemic discrimination. Which is why the mainstream left-wing media cannot report the truth about South Africa, because to do so would expose the inevitable consequences of this worldview.

It IS our problem. Should we have left the Jews in the prison camps? Don’t answer that. You will embarrass yourself.

The only thing bull about your comment is your lack of recognition that white people aren’t being targeted because of the colour of their skin.

People like you will only admit it after the fact, where every white person in that country has been killed and then you will enjoy your moment of emoting about how the West is terrible because we didn’t step up to save them.

Just like people like you emoted about how the death camps of Europe were built and how we allowed them.

he aujthor gets pretty excited at thinking ojut the truth. I could see this truth a few minutes after Trunp started trolling Ranphosa , I was watching live oon Fox news.

Yes, CRT and BLM and all that black nationalist crap from Al Sharpton and Rev. Ralph Wright as well as Obama?

It all would get us exactly genocide against whites and Jews in America, a totalitarian”final solution”, Watch South Africa as their CRT South African world descends into chaos and starvation.The culture teaches black children to hate whites.

And Ramphosa wants Trump to save him? What a laugh.Their nation is failing and they must blame the white man instead of themselves. Soon when they run out of scapegoat whites, they will descend into tribal warfare where the midnight panga rules.Tehn they will not even be able to mine gold or diamonds, let alone grow their own food without white farmers.

I don’t care who is killing in South Africa, or The Congo or Zimbabwe or whatever.

Not my problem, knock $20 off my gas and grocery bill, that’s what this country cares about.

Yes, I know you don’t care.

You’ll care when the left indulges their desires in America. Whatever guns you own won’t be enough at that time. You’re a cooperator on European genocide.

”Who gives a crap about South Africa?

If it weren’t for colonialism and financial / other aid from the US and others Africa might have become a ghost continent by now . But thanks to the aforementioned , its population continues to skyrocket while the pop. of the countries who helped them continues to decrease . Whitey going the way of the dinosaur .

You’re clearly missing the point of the article.

Whether you care about what’s happening to THEM is irrelevant. Same with Europe and the muzzies.

The point is, it’s a warning to us that the left has the same plans for the US. That will be OUR future given enough time and stirred up hatred, and enough imports.

I dare say you’ll care then.

Trump confronting one of the killers right there in the White House forces the media to cover a story they want buried. They settled on an ‘ambush’ narrative. Imagine Hitler in the White House being confronted by FDR over his treatment of the Jews. ‘NY Times headline ‘ Hitler ambushed in White House over untrue claims of percecution of Jews’
