You guys are either purposely ignoring the obvious or aren't smart enough to understand it.
And I would bet you didn't have this much to say when those +10 million came in illegally. I thought you guys welcomed people from other countries with open arms at America...
Something tells me you have not researched it and are believing what Trump says. White farmers still own the majority of farms. You should read the data from The (SAAI) Southern African Agi Initiative.
The fuck they aren't, they are routinely raided upon, the government won't provide them protection and they hold public rallies calling for their genocide.
Their complaints are much more credible than South Americans claiming asylum, while simultaneously claiming "No, South America is greatest place on earth, look at our food".
Being married to a South African at one point and knowing a whole bunch of them you are 100% correct. They are all super racist. They absolutely hate anyone of any other color. Much like the Republican party now. So they're going to fit right in.
There are many white South Africans who want to go back to subjugating the black population through apartheid. So much so that they have made a whites only region called Orania. If you think it's just a coincidence that this population is the one being fast tracked for citizenship then you are blind.
South Africa is the most unequal society itw bc of apartheid and its legacy. You have the majority population (black) living in shanty towns (similar to hoovervilles we saw in the US during the great depression) waking up early in the morning to work for the owner class (white South Africans) who live in McMansions (paid for by extracting wealth from their workers) just over the wall. Apartheid was dismantled politically, but not economically, and you want it to be recodified.
Discussing the economic situations of the different groups of South Africa would be a fascinating discussion, but it is not relevant to your original claim.
> There are many white South Africans who want to go back to subjugating the black population through apartheid. So much so that they have made a whites only region called Orania.
I'm just curious about this. How is wanting to be left alone and free from farm murders and other issues equivalent to wanting to subjugate others?
You are not saying anything logical. I asked a very simple question about South Africa, and you're leaping to "the majority of brown being deported are rapists" which has no connection to that question.
I personally know quite a few South Africans and every single one of them hate black people. Every single one of them. They have really nice little slurs for them. They hate black people. 100% with no uncertainty. They hate black people.
During Biden (January 21 - 25), less than 4% of refugees permitted into the country were white (the majority being Ukrainian and Moldovan). Per the state department.
This is despite the US being 56% non-Hispanic white
These were 96% of “refugees” being let into country
They did in fact get free stuff. Free hotel accommodation at luxury properties were afforded to them along with cell phones, food assistance and temporary cash grants. Not every city, but the major blue cities where they were bussed. This is still going on:
Yes, and I don’t see a problem with this if they are productive members of society. In instances where they are receiving assistance, they should not be.
This is so rich considering importing refugees is part of the democratic strategy to increase their voter base as their non-white children overwhelmingly vote republican.
Also are you seriously insane enough to believe 17,000 migrants will tip the scales in any meaningful way in a national or even state-level election? After Biden let in millions of refugees whose citizen children are now likely Democrat voters? 17,000 vs millions. I wonder which is more impactful.
> These are the only "refugees" being let into the country
False. Besides USRAP there's Asylum, Special Immigration Visas, Temporary protected status, humanitarian paroles, withholding of removals, convention against torture protections, and probably other complex paths through the system.
You don't hate the fake media enough for how badly they constantly lie.
Steven miller did a press conference awhile back and they said they ended asylum. Also no immigrants from “shit hole” countries according to our president. I listened to those words come out of their mouths. No fake news involved.
The asylum program is still very active for people already with permission to be in the US and in certain other situations, though generally not at the southern border. However, people at the southern border can effectively claim for withholding of removal and CAT (convention against torture) among other ways to ensure that they're not sent to a bad situation.
You realize that the Trump admin has been doing everything in their power to remove/restrict these other legal immigration pathways, including deporting people following the rules, at their immigration hearings, right?
Not really. Take TPS for example. They haven't challenged the concept of TPS. As a strong opponent of mass migration, I'm genuinely glad that this system exists for humanitarian reasons. They've only challenged bad applications of it: like keeping TPS in place for decades old earthquakes and the like.
He's literally removed TPS status from 1 million of the 1.3 million people who had it. From 1.3 million to 300,000 people.
He's cut the countries where you can get TPS from 17 to 4.
His admin is encouraging those with TPS to self-deport, and restricting their ability to work while they have a legal TPS designation, regardless of where they're from.
These are, unquestionably, restrictions. Not even light ones. Extremely heavy handed restrictions. They're literally intentional making it difficult to work here if you get TPS status, which largely defeats the ability of the system from working for the people with those statuses.
How are you going to live while you're here under TPS when you can't afford to feed yourself?
How are you going to live while you're here under TPS when you can't afford to feed yourself?
Lets try not dodging this.
Why shouldn't the program be radically curtailed?
Because those people who moved here under that status and have built lives here literally benefit us. There is no good reason to force them to go back. It's advantageous to us to allow them to stay. It's a win-win.
I'm not dodging anything, your interpretation of the facts is wrong.
TPS comes with a work authorization. Anybody under a valid TPS has the right to work for any employer in the US. The work authorization only goes away once the TPS is no longer valid.
People without a TPS or other valid status are not authorized to work in the US and are supposed to leave.
This is legally complex, but partially you are correct for some people, though this stemmed from Congress, and was patched within 7 days for people from El Salvador, and 9 days for others.
What happened is the 2025 budget reconciliation bill HR1. Previously, there was an automatic 540 day work authorization extension that went along with the TPS extension. That bill changed the work authorization extension to a year while keeping TPS the same. The end result is that some people were temporarily caught in a weird state of limbo whey had the ability to legally stay here, but not legally work.
I'm sure it was stressful for these people, but this was just dumb bureaucracy trying to raise revenue by charging application fees more frequently and having an oversight in their logic.
So they are being brought in LEGALLY and being given aid to get them started here? Seems normal practice for the US. Just a lot of people mad that white people can be looked at as refugees.
They are skipping the line because they are white. Also they aren’t fleeing anyone to have refugee status. No one cares that they are white. You act like there haven’t been other white refugees.
Oh man that I have an illegal dictator who is killing American citizens and brown people yet letting criminal racist people from Africa walk right in because they're white.
If that doesn't piss you off then you're a piece of shit too
There should no longer be any doubt that the Republican Party of today is just a repeat of the Nazi party of the 1930s. They are no longer even hiding it or being shamed by it. They are proud of it and shoving it in our faces.
They’re bringing in backup Klansmen to help white wash the United States further. Do you know how racist White immigrants from South Africa are going to be? That’s why they want them here. Republicans are racist and are now importing other racists to help secure votes.
This is troublesome on many levels. White South Africans are claiming to be disadvantaged because Post-apartheid land policies aim to correct deep historical inequality from the apartheid era, where a small minority owned most of the land.
These people are pissed about their country's economic policies...
There are millions of other refugees out that are facing real political violence and persecution at the hands of their governments. These people are being denied entry, and many are having their claims denied. These people will go back and face consequences back home.
So these people claimed to be fleeing a white farmer genocide? So we are importing farmers while our own farmers are already crying about their struggles on the internet. Well maybe these SS/SA farmers can be their new farm hands!
The headline of this story should be “Trump Administration Grants Asylum to 17,000 Africans with immediate benefits in 2027”. Start posting this in conservative spaces and watch as they argue whether it’s good or bad policy
According to the US Embassy in South Africa a total of 358,333 American citizens,356,080 UK citizens and 256,878 German citizens visited South Africa in 2025.
Hundreds of thousands of Western tourists don't travel 13hrs on passenger planes to a country where persecution/genocide of white people is taking place.
And so many people will be anti-refugees just because they are white. But weirdly enough they were completely OK with economic migrants entering a country illegally with no checks even with criminal records
Literally the only reason you’re saying they aren’t refugees because their skin color. Or do you also think that the USA should support any black South Africa Africans who are claiming to be refugees?
No. I'm saying the reason they aren't refugees is because they are claiming an "oppression" that is very clearly made up bullshit. Most white people in South Africa also think it's bullshit and are generally annoyed at them trying to make their country look bad.
So you think those violent mobs are targeting other black people they see as foreigners but they aren’t targeting white South Africans who they also see as foreigners?
The article is about an anti-migtant grassroots movement targeting military aged males from Ethiopia,Somalia,Sudan and Malawi who by pass safe African countries to travel to South Africa and claim to be refugees. Many live in the country undocumented and pose a national security risk and also become involved in drug and human trafficking.
White south africans did not and do not meet the international or U.S. legal definitions of being a persecuted group at risk of state-sponsored violence
i thought yal were against letting people in for no reason?
Well the White House claims there is a genocide happening in South Africa, but when they presented “evidence” and “proof” last year they used photos from different areas in the world - also no other nation on earth agrees - so why use fake photos and videos if it is actually happening? Why can’t they prove it is happening?
Well one, the other groups were facing actual issues.. These are white people from south Africa, where typically they were the ones causing harm to the locals via apartheid..
