The subtle message that Trump is saying, is that black people are savages who kill with impunity. The racist trope that we uncivilised and animal-like as race is what Afriforum has peddled and now Trump is reinforcing in his messaging. The world is on our side in pushing back against this distortion and disinformation and racist branding of black people. There is no genocide against white people in South Africa.
Black people are the ones who throughout history from the Slave trade, Jim Crow, apartheid to modern economic exclusion who have faced the brunt of a savage system designed to strip them first of their dignity and ultimately their humanity. I will always call out this lie everytime it is peddled.

Trump: We suspended all refugee resettlement, except for persecuted South Africans. There's a very horrible thing going on in South Africa. It's a genocide. They kill people if they're white. If you're a white person. I did great with the black vote, the African American vote, and they understand this better than anybody.

@waynesaisbright @elonmusk Voetsek Wayne. You and your black partner will not get that tenderpreneur deal despite all your groveling.

As a white South African born in the same year as @elonmusk , but never left, I can assure you that his thinking is still deeply stuck in Apartheid. He is a disgrace to South Africa.

@NkululekoMhlaba We all know Public "servants" don't do a honest day's work and treat the public like dirt.
English
Let’s use a better metric: public servants per 100,000 people.
🇿🇦 South Africa: ~2,300
🇩🇪 Germany: ~2,500
🇫🇷 France: ~5,500
🇬🇧 UK: ~5,500
SA is not an outlier.

We defeated your racist apartheid parents & their government. We defeated the US & UK regimes that stood with them. With the full might of the people behind the most glorious global human rights campaign in history: the anti-apartheid movement.
We will defeat you too, with your robots & dollars!

If South Africa doesn’t change its super racist Apartheid 2.0 laws, the country must be sanctioned

The South African laws are literally super racist, plain and simple.
It’s not complicated: imagine if the law was called “White Empowerment”, instead of “Black Empowerment”! People would have a seizure 😂
South Africa now has more anti-White laws than Apartheid had anti-Black laws. Think about that for a second …
The current South African government has objectively implemented Apartheid 2.0. Shame on them.

This is very wrong. The municipal level of government does not have any foreign policy competence,this includes agreements, whether formal or informal, with militaries of foreign states. DIRCO will be liaising with all parties involved to iron this out.

WATCH | The City of Cape Town MMC of Safety and Security, JP Smith, has described the uproar over a group of United States Marine Corps members training with Metro Police as a fake outrage. He adds that he doesn't believe it requires DIRCO involvement.

The sentencing of Julius Malema to five years' imprisonment without the option of a fine has left me, like many others, in profound shock.
As someone who has reflected deeply on past mistakes, I remain firmly committed to the principle that all must be equal before the law. But that principle must be applied consistently, and without exception, otherwise it loses its meaning.
Having listened carefully to the proceedings over the past two days, I am concerned that this standard has not been upheld.
It is my considered view that a higher court may well arrive at a different conclusion. That is my honest reflection.

@DisprinXtra There is no diversity in Sandf. 100% black. What happened to racial quotas they pushed down our throats for decades?

@eNCA Except for taking a lot of "officials" to DC for a shopping spree, what exactly has SA to offer the G20?

@RiebvJanbeeck According to Clayson Monyela, 6 farmers were killed in 2025, 5 being black. Looks like the SA gubberment got counting lessons from Jacob Z.

“Well-known civil engineer’s throat slit in brutal farm murder”
Thys van Niekerk (64), was stabbed and his throat slit on a farm between Cradock and Hofmeyr in the Eastern Cape.
Van Niekerk lived alone in a house on the farm Uitkyk while working as a resident engineer, attached to the company SNA Civil and Structural Engineers, on a road reconstruction project on the R390 route between Cradock and Hofmeyr.
The project started about two months ago and would have been Van Niekerk’s last major road construction project.
He would then have officially retired as an engineer.
“It seemed that Van Niekerk had just arrived home on the farm when he was attacked and killed.”
Another case of farm attackers waiting for white people to return home.
“He will be remembered by many people as a religious, hard-working perfectionist who cared about his fellow man. We are all going to miss you Oom Thys!”
RIP Oom Thys.

Dear Fellow South African,
The success of the 6th South Africa Investment Conference two weeks ago, where we secured a record R890 billion in investment pledges, reflects renewed confidence in our economy.

South Africa played a key role in NASA's Artemis II mission in terms of deep space tracking and communications.
The South African National Space Agency provides vital tracking, telemetry, and ranging data through the Hartebeesthoek Ground Station (HartRAO).

South Africa is in stark decline, and perhaps nothing illustrates that better than this viral video from 2023, which shows South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa unveiling a tap to a cheering crowd in KwaZulu-Natal.
After being relentlessly mocked online, the President’s office made a statement claiming the President travelled to KZN for more than just the tap, and that the video was taken out of context and should be seen as the government’s “total commitment to accelerate the delivery of water”.
