I've met a few ex-Zimbabwe farmers. Not what we would call white, all mixed race.

They are the nicest people and very honest and hardworking. They will never go back though as they are terrified of what might happen to them. They are true refugees, they know that a mob could come and kill them for no reason at any moment if they live in their own country.

If they really want people to return they have to change society to remove that fear.

A few years back one of SaidIt's young people with so much potential was/is an orphan refugee from Zimbabwe hiding in Europe from a terrible history. It's much worse that we can ever know. Not everyone believes in the race war, but you don't need everyone to in order to corrupt and disrupt everything.

Race war? More like just war.

The war is real.
The racism is only real to some.
The reasons for war are never legit.

Africa is fucked. Corruption, rape culture, poverty. Death penalty for gay people in some regions even (no matter your religion convictions death penalty is way too harsh for something like this).

I'm not gonna say we should send some competent white people there to fix some things... but damn it would help.

    They've had plenty of time to sort that out.

    Europe has likely had 10 new countries since the 1980s.

      You are just proving my point.

      White people's (((and others'))) systems are what keep things broken.

      Just think, if Catholic Charities and the whole slough of Christian organizations would just stop feeding any of these people in Africa, they would die off rather quickly and then we wouldn’t have jews importing them into western countries where they rape, rob, live off welfare and never assimilate.

      It's not charities doing it, it's government foreign aid.

      There is some of that, but if you listen to the radio at all, you will hear ads for “feed the children” shit that is def NGO activity, namely Christian organizations.

      Same shit is starting to happen in US blue cities. They are finally figuring out they can't run shit without nigging everything up. Once whitey evacuates a place it will turn into an african shithole. The darkies figure it out when everything shuts down and they have no food source.

      Well said. The Sub Saharans revert back to the Neolithic Age, killing, raping, stealing. They can’t help it because they have very low IQs, many can’t even read above a 4th grade level, and are simply out of place in a First World economy. We should give them 40 acres and a mule and let them farm.

        Look at the shoreline of west Africa. Notice it is smooth. Now look at the river systems; unlike the Ohio and Mississippi rivers, African rivers don’t meet more than once in the whole continent. Then there’s the water falls.

        The whole continent has the shittiest natural infrastructure of any continent. Commerce and intellectual trade had no chance. Combine that with a year round growing season (no need to plan for winter) or no need to figure out how to dress warmly, and you get people who are short term thinkers, as dumb as a stick. There was no selection/need for intelligence…so they don’t have any.

        Maybe they could get the black lives matter movement to help them

        Let’s drive whitey out of our countries! What could go wrong?

        [–]Ehhhhhh 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

        Misleading title. Doesn't sound like they are begging them to return if that dude is telling blacks to take whatever white owned land that they want.

        Read it again. You weren't paying attention. You're confusing two different countries, South Africa and Zimbabwe.

        [–]Ehhhhhh 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

        I did read it again and it's still misleading. They still aren't "begging".

        "We have asked provinces to give us the names of white farmers they want to remain on farms so that we can give them security of tenure documents to enable them to plan their operations properly,” Mombeshora said."

        That is for ones to remain, which is not begging for any to return.

        These people were driven violently from their lands without proper time to harvest or wind down. Compensation wasn't fair and found an article from a couple years ago saying that they'd offered some who left a 99 year lease.

        Like, what's the point? Build up farms yet AGAIN only to have them destroyed or seized again? They weren't protected last time from invasion or murder so doesn't sound like Zimbabwe is begging very hard until they try to make right what happened.

        It's been 15 years. It says a lot that they haven't figured this out in 15 years.

        I know it doesn't scale the same but I went from no gardening experience to feeding my family on what we grow alone in 4 years.... and I didn't start with established farm land nor did I use industrial fertiliser or get gibs from foreign aid.
