    White South Africans flee the dangerous loss of apartheid in South Africa. Seek a better apartheid in the U.S.

      On the upside it kinda just means we’re decolonizating south Africa? Like I absolutely do not want them here, but at least someone benefits from no longer having the weird racist post-apartieid white population around anymore

      That video of elon Musk’s dad talking about how the US becoming majority nonwhite is the collapse of the country is fuckin gross

    According to the data, every refugee admitted to the US in 2026 was a White South African. In fact, since 1 October 2025, of the 6,668 refugees accepted into the US, only three were not South African.

          It was from the beginning. Why would Nazis lead a postwar alliance of the nations who defeated them? Like… WTF?

          Our history of American Exceptionalism is a lie.

          America never “defeated fascism”. We rescued it from beneath Soviet boots and fostered it throughout the world.

          Which tracks, because Americans taught Germans everything they knew about fascism leading up to the Holocaust.

    Because it was never about immigration and all about skin colour?

    Is anyone really surprised? His opponents have been saying this all along, and his supporters felt the same way as he did.
