    while Trump’s policies bankrupt and destroy farmers here in America for a 2nd time, he is rolling out the red carpet for South African farmers because of a “genocide”…lmao

    When will MAGA folks ever realize that Trump is a bold faced liar? How many times will they continue to defend a man that lies and lies and lies? The funny part is that they call everyone else who says he's full of BS as the dumb ones.

    Trump's image of dead 'white farmers' came from Reuters footage in Congo, not South Africa

    President Donald Trump showed a screenshot of the video to South African President Cyril Ramaphosa as part of what he falsely presented as proof of mass killings of white South Africans.


    The video, published by Reuters on Feb. 3 and subsequently verified by the news agency’s fact check team, showed humanitarian workers lifting body bags in the Congolese city of Goma. The image was pulled from Reuters footage shot following deadly battles with Rwanda-backed M23 rebels.

    The footage from which the picture was taken shows a mass burial following an M23 assault on Goma, filmed by Reuters video journalist Djaffar Al Katanty.

    “That day, it was extremely difficult for journalists to get in ... I had to negotiate directly with M23 and coordinate with the ICRC to be allowed to film,” Al Katanty said. “Only Reuters has video.”

    Al Katanty said seeing Trump holding the article with the screengrab of his video came as a shock.

    “In view of all the world, President Trump used my image, used what I filmed in DRC to try to convince President Ramaphosa that in his country, white people are being killed by Black people,” Al Katanty said.

    I hate having a compulsive lying race baiter as our President. The guy is despicable. There is no low he won't stoop to when it comes to deceiving people.

    The key to being a good grifter is telling people that their irrational suppressed socially frowned-upon emotional responses - like greed, or racial fear, or fear of the tran athletes coming to eat your daughters - are totally acceptable and, in fact, would be negligent to ignore.

    If you want to run a good grift - tell people what they want to hear but which they know on some level is wrong.

    All of these MAGA "dupes" are willing participants. If Trump didn't tell them exactly what they want to be told is OK, they would lose interest.

    Its not Trump fooling America. It is Trump and America conspiring together to manifest and cosplay their irrational fears in real time.

    So the son of the couple being memorialized in Trumps misleading video says there is no white genocide in South Africa.

    Trump's debunked 'burial site' video reopens 'wounds,' says victim's son


    https://www.npr.org/2025/05/24/nx-s...QeeE57J-lIZ9usI5Mg_aem_qyohyZXYpHs8zq3TM8jDzg


    Rafferty said he was shocked when he saw the video shown in the Oval Office meeting.
    "The last thing you expect to see are some of the most traumatic parts of your life shown on international TV. So it was totally unexpected," he said.
    "It obviously opened several new wounds."
    NPR asked Rafferty what he thought about the white "genocide" suggestion from the Trump administration.

    "Do I think that there's a targeted genocide program of some sort?" he said. "No I don't."





    From January to March 2025, six people were killed on farms in South Africa
    , police said.
    Out of those six, one was white.

    "The history of farm murders in the country has always been distorted and reported in an unbalanced way; the truth is that farm murders have always included African people in more numbers," said Police Minister Senzo Mchunu, referring to Black Africans.

    Hmmm…I wonder why? Any guesses anyone? Are we allowed to discuss the elephant in the room?

    Grok prompt:
    How credible are the recent claims of white genocide in South Africa? As a reference point, compare to claims of genocide in Gaza.

    Final Assessment from Grok:
    The claims of "white genocide" in South Africa are not credible, lacking evidence of systematic targeting or intent and relying on debunked misinformation. They are largely a narrative driven by white nationalist rhetoric and political agendas. In contrast, the genocide claims in Gaza have a stronger evidentiary basis due to the scale of civilian harm and ICJ engagement, though proving intent remains unresolved and the situation is complicated by the ongoing conflict with Hamas. The South African claims fail to meet the genocide threshold by any objective measure, while the Gaza claims, though not yet proven, are treated as plausible by international legal bodies, highlighting a significant difference in credibility and context.



    Follow-up prompt:

    Putting aside the opinions of potentially corrupt international legal bodies on this question, what is your assessment of the relative credibility of each claim?


    Conclusion from Grok:


    The "white genocide" claim in South Africa is not credible, lacking evidence of systematic targeting, intent, or disproportionate impact on Whites. It is largely a narrative fueled by misinformation and political agendas. The genocide claim in Gaza has greater credibility due to the extensive civilian toll and destruction, but proving genocidal intent remains a significant hurdle. Without relying on international legal bodies, the Gaza claim is supported by stronger evidence and context, making it far more plausible than the South African claim, though it falls short of definitive proof of genocide. If you want a deeper dive into specific data or contexts, let me know!

    I don't
    I don't have a problem with anyone getting refugee status in the US over concerns of racial discrimination and violence. That being said, to prioritize South Africans over people in far deadlier situations around the world is absurd. Leave it to Trump though to spurt far right white nationalist rhetoric, exaggerate the narrative, and even present false visuals to stir up a claimed genocide not based on factual data. It's like everything he and his white nationalist MAGA folks do.

    Hysteria over discrimination, rape, violence, or murders are either amplified, completely false, or ignored completely, depending on the skin color, gender, and sexual preference of the perpetrators or victims when it comes to Trump and his White Nationalists.
