Trump says some white South Africans are oppressed and could be resettled in the US. They say no thanks
Groups representing some of South Africa’s white minority have responded to a plan by U.S. President Donald Trump to offer them refugee status and resettlement in the United States by saying: thanks, but no thanks.
Summary
Trump proposed offering refugee status and U.S. resettlement for white South Africans amid alleged oppression and rights abuses, claiming protection for Afrikaners.
Leading Afrikaner organizations, including Solidarity and AfriForum, rejected Trump’s offer, stating their commitment to remain in South Africa and build a future locally.
The U.S. executive order cut aid to South Africa and accused its government of enabling attacks and enforcing a law seizing white-owned farmland.
South Africa’s officials dismissed Trump’s claims as misinformation, noting that Afrikaners remain economically privileged and integral to the nation’s recovery from apartheid.
Let me guess. It works the other way around, too?
Suddenly the black population of the United States are oppressed and get deported to South Africa.
USA is a shithole country circling the drain
I just don't understand why they don't want to go. Don't they want to pay for health insurance?!
The formal term is a doom spiral
Elon Musk said what?
"Please don't tell anyone I showed you my penis, I'll give you $250k"
Clearly a speech wrote by President Musk, as he needs this to benefit some of his friends
Fuck Trump and musk, but isn't there actually a class of marginalized, white South Africans? I remember watching a (legit) documentary on that. They live in poverty and are frowned upon by a lot of rich white South Africans for their poverty and hated by a lot of black South Africans for their descent, if I remember correctly.
Does anyone have the complete picture and how it relates to this situation now? Are those the same two groups?
So I think I watched this:
Trump heard there was this guy called Flintheart Glomgold, who's really rich and excellent potential member in his inner political circle.
