So they’re importing a bunch of racists from South Africa. Who will vote for fascist Rs. Isn’t that what they accuse Ds of doing?
Every accusation …

I’m more interested in how many of these people are winding up working for ICE.

Not just racists but racists with tribal knowledge concerning the implementation and maintenance of Apartheid.
How long does it take to go through the refugee process to become a citizen? They can’t vote until then, right?

I mean now we’re just in fantasy land. No one has offered the option to buy citizenship like that. Trump offered to let people buy green cards or whatever fancy name he gave them (still a green card).
After that it takes at minimum 5 years. No indication that is being sped up in any way for anyone. It’s not even possible to speed it up under current law, not that the administration wouldn’t try. But in this case they’ve given no indication of doing so.

I just don’t understand the need to fantasize about things that have not happened and that have no indication they will happen when we already have a mountain of very real problems occurring
The green card thing was really just a pathetic attempt to collect revenue since taxes have been slashed to untenable levels. Wealthy people wouldn’t even want citizenship. They vote with money, not with ballots.
Not that these Boers are really rich or anything and there’s not enough of them to effect voting even if they could. This is virtue signalling to white supremacists. In fact I’d bet a lot of them will leave soon or end up homeless. They’re being brought in without any plans or preparation and no job opportunities waiting for them. Their usefulness to the Trump admin is merely as a photo prop and then they’re on their own.
But oh well sucks to suck. Hope you all end up homeless back in South Africa too because a black family moved into your house while you were gone.
It used to be 10 years after you got green card.
Agreed it’s ridiculous.
Using the max number from the article of 17,500 people, that’s not enough to make any real difference. Maybe if they went through a major effort to settle them in one or two close congressional districts.
Also they can’t vote for at least 5 years after they arrive assuming they all rush to get their citizenship.
They’re not sending their best.
But would they even be eligible to vote?
Sure, if they speed up the naturalization process for them
Yikes
Why are they racist?
Agreed, we don’t know that they are racist. Like most anywhere, you are very likely to find a mix of both racist, anti-racist, and everyone in between. However, given relatively recent historical context, they are likely to have a higher proportion of racists with a higher degree of severity.
Please publish their names and addresses so that we, their new neighbors, may properly welcome them.
100% none of them are vetted.
Their bank accounts and political ideology datapoints were, I guarantee it.

I might be wrong but dropping 10k more white fascists in the USA is just a drop in an (half full) bucket
The real winners in all of this are the people of South Africa who no longer have to deal with these racist pieces of shit
Yes. Thank you for taking them from us. Some of you may be exposed to bigotry, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make.
jdpon don strikes again by helping south africa’s decolonization efforts 🫡

Elon’s slow walk invasion. Part of a side agreement he and trump have. Everyone step right up! We’re selling it all!!
They’re not sending their best
America is having an emergency president situation
Gross.
That’s exactly what we need… ffs.
Reminder for anyone who doesn’t know, it’s highly likely that the Q account on 8chan was a white South Afrikaner before the account was highjacked by Ron Watkins and his father Jim Watkins (owners of the image board). Allegedly.
Man, I watched The Second Civil War for the first time a couple months ago, and thought it was kind of an interesting take on what issues might be prevalent today. I thought the mass immigration of certain groups to appease political groups seemed a little far fetched though. I guess nothing is satire anymore. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Second_Civil_War
I recently watched that movie. I liked the part where a news reporter has a freak out and says there is no other news. This is how they should be reacting to current events
i mean, this could be seen as a good thing, as a sort of late decolonization? if he gets the white people (which are all descendants of colonizers) out of south africa.
Not really, if we accept that premise then it’s just furthering colonization of a different place.

I wonder how they will get to vote. Hmmm.
These neo-confederates will make for shitty soldiers. The world will be better someday, once their plots are filled and promptly forgotten.
But he’s not racist
Not quite go back where you came from but if the US is paying for it what is the problem?
because they don’t need refugee status. They’re utilizing this as loop hole to circumvent proper methods of immigration. you know like the people who literally pay thousands of dollars to properly immigrate to the US. These people aren’t fleeing anything remotely close to an emergency or crisis they’re simply immigrating while saving a few bucks in the process.
This is also a very easy way for the current administration to bring in more white people who share the same views and opinions of said administration. it’s text book fascism. kick out the colored bring in the right white.
As a South African I can confirm there is zero emergency here. As usual, Trump just prattles off whatever lies fits his needs.
And why should South Africa have to put up with these shitheads? Let them fuck off to fascist America.
Fuck off, man, we already have too many racist shitbags grown domestic. South Africa needs to keep theirs right where they grew 'em.
So much for the free racist market 😔
It’s a great time to invest, I say.
You do realize that the current (semi)nonorganic rise in fascism has been pushed/funded by South African Nazis living here right? Fuck em
There are multiple? Thought it was just the 1
Well, when money is speech, that one is the loudest voice in the room.
Because they’re South Africans?

They are not refugees, they should immigrate the normal (expensive) way like everyone else and not get a free ride on the American tax payer’s dollar. Especially when we have, what, 30,000 refugees from south of the border living in warehouses awaiting a chance to legally immigrate. 50,000? 100,000? Probably even more than that.
-
They’re escaping South Africa with fortunes made by exploiting the people of South Africa and will suffer no consequences in the US. They stand at least some chance of being punished in their own country (even more so if they’re running like this, seems like they can feel the noose tightening), and their money would stay in South Africa to help the country in such a case instead of disappearing into the offshore haven of the US.
-
They’re friends of people like Musk and Trump, and allowing them to more easily use their money to affect American policy will be worse not just for the US, but the world at large. Letting people with experience running an apartheid regime into the politics of a belligerent war hungry government who has already threatened numerous friendly countries over resources cannot end well.

There isn’t an emergency. These are racists kicking our brown people who are following the law (ICE wouldn’t be camping outside of immigration courts to abduct people if they actually wanted those breaking the law) and letting in white people just to rub it in.
The problem is that we have quite literally cut off refugees from every other country, including places that actually need it. These people are fleeing a made up crisis.

US has let in 4,499 refugees since October - all but three were South African
(As of April, so obviously more SA “refugees” now)
It’s using US taxpayers’ money. The US isn’t paying for it, their taxpayers are.
