Meet the ‘Anti-Racist’ South African Politicians Who Blame Power-Cuts On Their White Opponents Being Witches Who Magically Control the Nation’s Electricity Supply
In Britain, Halloween is traditionally a time for sticking candles in pumpkins – but in South Africa’s crumbling cities they have to stick candles in things and light them every day right now, because the electricity never works. Why not? Here in the UK, the eventual answer might be ‘because of Net Zero’, but in South Africa the answer would tend to be ‘because of corruption and incompetence’, primarily on behalf of the still somewhat dominant African National Congress Party (ANC).
The anti-Apartheid ANC is best known as the political vehicle of history’s cuddliest ever radical black Marxist terrorist and bomber of railway lines, Nelson Mandela. However, since the end of white minority rule in 1994, the party has increasingly become a vehicle for enriching the mainly black party elites at the expense of the mainly black populace. Due to endemic shady practices, the nation’s infrastructure is therefore rapidly collapsing. Areas run by the more multi-racial opposition Democratic Alliance Party (DA) seem generally less afflicted by such disasters. The obvious reason why might be that the DA is less crooked and less obsessed with black-worshipping DEI schemes. The less obvious – but much more convenient from an ANC perspective – answer would be to claim that the real reason the DA is able to keep the lights on so well is because it secretly uses witchcraft.

I find it slightly surprising there is more than a tiny number of whites left in SA. I guess if you were born there you feel it’s your country and want to stay put. The whole thing is very sad. I cannot know what I would do, but my guess is I would quit (if I could – property is not worth much there so moving to a rich world country is going to set you back to square one financially, I am told).
There was a reason for Apartheid.
Saint Mandela, the guerilla Marxist whose group killed thousands, and whose family looted the state.
Now Whites are hunted and any who remain looking to leave.
I have worked with SA’s in the UK and are friends with a few. They won’t admit they have a ‘Black’ problem. I have asked a few times, ‘so why then are you here…?’
“I have worked with SA’s in the UK and are friends with a few. They won’t admit they have a ‘Black’ problem. I have asked a few times, ‘so why then are you here…?’”
Yes I know someone like that.
“There was a reason for Apartheid” Yes, though in hindsight it was wrong and possibly not sustainable. Whites should never have settled there in the first place probably – again in hindsight a mistake.
You could say the same about the Blacks. The Bantu are immigrants who moved down from Northern Africa, displacing – wiping out – tribes already there like the San.
White settlers, first the Dutch then British, went there along the south west coast to open revictualling stations for ships to/from Europe and Far East which had to go round The Cape and needed to get fresh food and water, make repairs.
The Boer established farms to grow food. The areas of white settlement were largely uninhabited, and the Boers’ trekked up onto the Highveld specifically because large areas were uninhabited, others sparsely populated as a consequence of brutal tribal warfare caused by tte Zulu which saw up to 2 million killed.
Fair points, though I still think overall we’d have been better off ignoring Africa.
Excellent post!
ANC is an explicitly anti-white party, and in SA anti-white hatred up to and including murder seem not be a crime. The govt routinely expatriates farms from white families.
It is probably the most violently racist organisation on the planet.
No international condemnation at all. Ever.
Thomas Sowell has a perspective on wealth creation and human capital that directly relates to what is going on in SA.

Thomas Sowell – Production, Inequality and Human Capital
Indeed
To an extent he gets away with pointing out some of this stuff because he’s black, though I’m sure the grifters hate him even more because of that
SA is the truth staring us in the face, ditto Zimbabwe
I mention “human capital” to people sometimes. They have no idea what I’m talking about
And that is all we have.
Indeed – worrying that many don’t seem to have considered this.
reminded me of Tom Sharpe, and got me wondering about great African Cities of the past….. the ones torn down by the evil white man, and that buffoon Lenny, and the laughable call for reparations…. The Way we Live eh…..
‘We wuz Kangz’ in their fetid dreams.
Here’s a few more examples of the amazing progress being made in Johannesburg since the end of the white colonialist destruction of south Africa 🇿🇦
And here
And here , heartwarming isn’t it?
Black civilisation. Black history month. Okay, the minute is up, we can stop now.
Could be in Reading, both because of the plant overgrowth and the people in the image.
🙂
Lol
You really ought to move
Reading doesn’t deserve you
South africa seems barmy at this time of year! Enjoy your new Reading!
(Well said Tof)
I was chatting to a golfer at the club who is about to go on a 10-day golf tour of SA. Would not be top of my list. Probably it’s cheap.
And does the power shut of in Reading for 15 hours a day?
Not yet…..
Miliband is working on it
Meanwhile the Presidential Palace has a fully-functioning back-up generator invented by that evil white engineer Rudolf Diesel.
There must surely be courses at what pass for universities in the west where such claims are treated seriously and given equal status with established scientific ideas.
If you think my remarks are nothing but sarcasm read The War on Science Ed Lawrence M Krauss.
Krauss is part of the cult of Scientism, he has waged war on ‘science’ most of his life.
Why should they leave. In many parts of South Africa it was their ancestors who first settled, long before the current majority black population some of whom arrived after the ANC took over.
In 1971 Elton John produced a glam rock song sung by John Kongos called Tokoloshe Man. In part the lyrics went: “makes no diff’rence if yo’re yella or yo’re red, toonite is the night is the night that yo’re ded!”
SA is returning to the Veldt from which it came. Having reached 20,000 murders a year, on top of all the other violence. It was 20 years ago that most women could expect to be raped at least once in their life.
A number of young white South Africans have told me quite separately from each other that white people are discriminated against in the jobs market. One young woman said that though she went to the topmost girls college she couldn’t get a job doing anything when she left.
Unsurprisingly 60% of SA’s whites under the age of 40 have left the country since the ANC took over.
Pity the ones who cannot afford to leave the country. What will happen to them? Look at her smile— there’s such pain in her smile…
The ‘white squatter camps’ of South Africa | Daily Mail Online
Back in the early ’90s I was invited by a former Royal Marine to take over his job in Tanzania as Chief of Security of a ruby mine. He made it sound great (he obviously wanted out!) and extolled the virtues of the countryside. Indeed, the colonial bungalow which went with the job boasted a window view filled with Mt. Kilimanjaro in the distance, but I pressed him further. He looked away and muttered, “you just can’t get them to remember anything”. It appeared that, apart from a few valued local employees who shone like the rubies they mined (and stole in the evenings, hence the need for security – est. approx 20-30% losses at the time) the remainder of the workforce after a couple of days off had forgotten entirely the simple tasks they were employed to perform. “This”, he said, “will be the source of most of your day to day problems”. As it happens I didn’t take the post but I have remembered his words many times.
Well… the warning was writ large next door in Zimbabwe when majority Black rule triumphed and Uncle Bob Muggabugga and his merry men ruled with incompetence, graft and corruption driving the Country to ruin within a decade. There was no apartheid in Southern Rhodesia.
South Africa is following the same script.
It does answer the question, why minority white rule?
I have now read two articles by authors who clearly do not know what or where South Africa is, who say the answer to SA’s electricity problem is nuclear power stations.
This is an absolutely brilliant, hard-hitting article by Steven Tucker, telling the truth about the devastating decline of South Africa since the end of apartheid.
I remember years ago, one of the South African politicians blamed the collapse of the nation’s infrastructure on the white man, actually saying that “the white man failed to teach us how to…” manage and repair it. And others blamed white farmers for failing to teach Ethnic Africans how to farm, before the Ethnic Africans seized the farms, tortured, raped and murdered the white farmers, then failed to farm the land themselves.
“the white man failed to teach us how to…”
You don’t hear that complaint from the Indians
The following is from a South African university 9 years ago.
