The Trump administration’s support for these claims, while stopping other new refugee arrivals, has inflamed uncomfortable conversations about how far racial reconciliation still has to go, three decades after the end of white minority rule.
The US president’s offer was a “godsend”, said Kyle, now a salesman working remotely for an overseas company: “I’ve got white children, they’re at the bottom of the hiring list here. So, there is no future for them. And the sad thing is they don’t even know what apartheid is.”
White Afrikaner governments racially segregated every aspect of life from relationships to where people were allowed to live during apartheid, repressing South Africa’s Black majority while keeping the white minority safe and much better off.
South Africa remains deeply unequal, more than 30 years since the system ended. The black South African unemployment rate is 46.1%, for example, compared with 9.2% for white people.
Non-whites have 4x the employment rate and whites are whining about not being on hiring lists? And are they aware that Trump was partially elected because of people here not wanting them competing for same jobs?
What a mess we’ve made of our species
I am not defending it but their population metrics are crazy. They have 80% black africans from different tribes. While white people account for only 7.3% of the population. It seems more like a failure of their government than the fault of any particular race here.

What are you suggesting is a crazy metric?
What do you see as a failure? Specifically, what are you not defending?
I’m not sure what correlation is obvious, but I’m missing it.
