Over the past few weeks, I’ve been following the developments surrounding Trump and PEPFAR, and I keep asking myself—what on earth is happening?
Those of us who are well-versed in history, rather than rewriting it to fit a false narrative, know exactly what is at play.
Trump’s offer to grant Afrikaners refugee status is a glaring confirmation of what has always been evident. Anyone paying attention to this situation should grasp the relentless racism and inequality that Black South Africans continue to endure.
Once again, Afriforum has inserted itself into controversy, aligning with none other than Donald Trump, a figure synonymous with right-wing extremism and racial divisiveness.
This comes as no shock—Afriforum, an organization that disguises itself as a defender of civil liberties, has spent years spreading misinformation to preserve white privilege and promote a fabricated sense of victimhood.
Their long-running propaganda about a so-called white genocide in South Africa has now earned them an invitation to Trump’s America, reinforcing the fact that racial supremacists recognize and support one another across borders.
Let’s set the record straight: South Africa’s deeply painful racial past is not a matter of opinion; it is a reality that continues to shape the lives of millions. Apartheid was not merely a policy—it was a systematic crime against humanity. Yet Afriforum refuses to acknowledge this historical fact, all while continuing to benefit from the entrenched inequalities left in its wake.
Instead of recognizing the land dispossession, economic exclusion, and oppression suffered by Black South Africans, Afriforum pushes the narrative that white South Africans are under attack.
They intentionally distort facts about farm killings and falsely portray the government as anti-white, conveniently ignoring the reality that crime in South Africa affects all communities and that land reform is a necessary step in addressing historical injustices—not an act of revenge.
History provides valuable lessons, but only to those willing to face the truth. The Holocaust is globally acknowledged as a crime against humanity, with memorials, educational programs, and ongoing condemnation ensuring that its horrors are never forgotten or repeated. Yet apartheid—an equally orchestrated and brutal system of racial subjugation—does not receive the same recognition.
White supremacists continue to downplay its impact, attempting to justify or erase the suffering it caused. Instead of taking responsibility for the past, organizations like Afriforum engage in historical revisionism, defending apartheid-era policies while claiming to be victims themselves.
And now, as if their damage within South Africa wasn’t enough, Afriforum is exporting its falsehoods abroad, seeking asylum in Trump’s America—a country where white nationalism has been emboldened under his influence.
If Trump and his followers are so eager to welcome them, then by all means, let them leave. South Africa will be better off without those who refuse to accept progress. Perhaps they should make a stop in Orania first—a town that epitomizes their vision of racial separation—before departing for their new so-called refuge. Has anyone told them to start packing yet?
This is a golden opportunity for racists to leave and embrace their dream of a “lekker” life in America. So hurry up! Pack up, speed up, and get moving. South Africa has real work to do, and we cannot afford to be slowed down by the ghosts of apartheid. Evil spirits must exit the building—immediately!
However, let’s not underestimate the harm that Afriforum’s deception has already caused. Their well-funded disinformation campaigns have successfully manipulated global perceptions of South Africa, undermining efforts to address historical wrongs and build an equitable society.
Their rhetoric breeds hostility, fuels division, and obstructs the path to genuine reconciliation. They do not seek fairness or justice; they seek to uphold an unjust system that protects their privileges.
It’s no coincidence that Trump’s close ally, Elon Musk, is another South African who refuses to support progressive policies designed to uplift the Black majority. Musk, who grew up benefiting from the apartheid economy, has consistently opposed regulations and reforms that seek to dismantle racial inequality.
His alignment with Trump and his disdain for social justice efforts only further demonstrate the global network of white privilege working to resist change. Just like Afriforum, Musk uses his influence to challenge transformation, proving that economic power does not necessarily equate to moral responsibility.
To Afriforum and its supporters: If life in a democratic South Africa feels unbearable for you, you are welcome to leave. No one is forcing you to stay. But don’t expect us to stand by while you distort history, resist transformation, and spread dangerous lies to sustain your racist agenda.
South Africa is on a path to healing, and that requires confronting hard truths, dismantling systemic inequalities, and ensuring that justice is not just an ideal but a reality. The era of unchecked white entitlement has ended, and no amount of outrage or misinformation from Afriforum will reverse that.
So go ahead—pack your bags, book your flights, and run toward Trump’s America. South Africa is progressing—with or without you.
Tsek!!!
