GracieX3:Yes they do. Since 1994 what has black SA people done to own farms of their own? |

benalvino3:You actually said blacks have more land in SA. Lol. I had better reserve my time. Goodluck. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by DeepSightZ: 7:58pm On May 10 |
benalvino3:You say whites own 72 per cent of farm land then say blacks own more land. Well done. |

What’s funny is that while watching the movies, they’ll support the underdog and root against the invaders but then develop brain aneurysm when it’s time to translate that morality to real life. That’s what hate did to the brain. Rids it of the ability to process past cognitive dissonance. GloriousGbola: |

benalvino3:Economic control is key and well known to pull many levers in every jurisdiction. Indeed we have seen the way the US tried to intimidate the political leadership of SA recently. Based on the words of one white man. |

DeepSight:They love all of the above.. they love it and wish it continued intensely just as it was in the past. They wish nobody ever fought against all you have listed, as it all leads to or has led to lazy black humans all over the world.. 😀😀😀 |

bayelsaowei:Its obvious they do, they have even avoided answering the question like a plague. They cant say it openly that they like apartheid and segregation and slavery. Afterall they have been singing about how black families were better off under segregation and they even supported the racist Charlie Kirk for saying that. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by benalvino3: 8:29pm On May 10 |
DeepSight:If you go a few days back post etc. Even my discussion today with deepsight, I have said Jim Crow and apartheid are bad. Slavery and segregation. I am against all this. You guys can lie all you want. When you can't argue with facts, you conjure lies. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by DeepSight(m): 8:45pm On May 10 |
benalvino3:Then you are contradicting yourself both today and in your whole doctrine. For today, the contradiction is saying that apartheid is bad and then saying that white minority ownership of the majority of the land in SA which resulted from apartheid is justified. For your whole doctrine, saying that segregation and racism are bad is at odds with your stance in justifying their results and even seeking greater oppression of black folk. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by bayelsaowei(m): 8:46pm On May 10 |
benalvino3:But blacks were much better when they were enslaved.. family units were more intact, blacks were more hardworking, there were no freebies as blacks had to work hard to eke a living, no protests (protests are for weaklings who can’t compete), no DEI (DEIs are for lazy blacks) etc.. How you wish you existed before 1964.. you would have loved oppression like you love your life. Right? |

bayelsaowei:Well said. That he cannot see that he is attempting to chew stones is comical. |

Truly, these so called conservatives here are the wretched of the Earth. |

DeepSight:See how he is still lying that is majority of the land. Despite being corrected many times over. Now that blacks think they are a victim of Nigerians. What apartheid did Nigerians impose on them? You people are never sincere. That's your gutter-level understanding of anything. Foreign Indians with business are not being attacked in SA, it is Nigerians with business. When you realize how blacks in the US and south Africa are their own biggest issue, then you will start to understand when people talk about solutions and calling out the issues plaguing black the community. Playing victim and swimming in the pool of hatred for any race or person does not solve anything. |

bayelsaowei:You are a wrapping strawman argument in sarcasm. pretending that because I criticize some modern outcomes or policies, I must secretly support slavery, Jim Crow, or apartheid. Na you sabi. I have said clearly that slavery, Jim Crow, segregation, and apartheid were evil. u know I said that, but because u cannot answer to the actual argument, u pretend I support oppression. Is like saying if I criticize corruption in post-colonial African governments, then I must support colonialism. Nonsense. And do note that I have argued that colonialism helped us. I have talked about the good side. It may seem like a contradiction, but somethings are very complicated. So Two things can be true at once: historical oppression was evil, and some modern solutions have failed or created new problems. My argument is not that Black people were better under oppression. My argument is that legal equality was necessary, but after legal barriers were removed, communities still need family stability, education, discipline, safe neighborhoods, responsibility, and good governance. If you disagree with this then you are part of the problem as you close your eyes and allow the community to implode. |

China charges ZERO tariffs to African nations!!!!! And they stockpiled natural resources since 45's term in office. Huawei-gate got their undivided attention to make future strategic moves. No need say D. Tzu will embarrass himself and the U.S. on the world stage again. Trump thinks he’s flying to Beijing with leverage. China spent 6 years making sure he doesn’t have any Story by Steve H. Hanke Air Force One will land in Beijing on May 14. President Trump expects to land with leverage in his briefcase. He should think again. On May 4, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent appeared on Fox News to plead with China to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz and relieve pressure on the international oil markets. While Bessent was busying himself on Fox News, China was busy making friends by supplying those in distress with much-needed oil and other commodities. This story goes back further than the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. In December 2018, the long arm of Washington reached into Vancouver International Airport to order the arrest of Meng Wanzhou — the CFO of China’s telecommunications giant Huawei and the daughter of its founder — over Iran-sanctions charges. Six months later, Washington put Huawei on its Entity List and cut China off from the U.S. semiconductor supply chain. Beijing snapped to attention. Fearing that Washington could one day choke off other critical resources, Chairman Xi quietly built one of the world’s largest commodity buffers. For example, Beijing amassed a 1.4-billion-barrel strategic crude reserve, roughly 115 days of seaborne imports. Fast forward to today, China is deploying its stockpile to supply those in distress with much-needed commodities, including oil. Sinopec and Sinochem have been reselling West African crude to refiners across Asia. On the gas side, Chinese majors have resold a record 1.31 million tons of LNG so far this year to the likes of South Korea, Thailand, Japan, Indonesia, and India. Beijing has been lending a hand to its Asian neighbors while the U.S. has been doing the opposite with its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The diplomatic dividend is exactly what one would expect: Seoul, Tokyo, and Jakarta have all sent Beijing a thank-you note and pivoted away from Uncle Sam. When we move away from physical molecules to the realm of diplomacy, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi flew into Beijing on May 6, where he was warmly welcomed by Foreign Minister Wang Yi. That same week, China’s Foreign Ministry openly dismissed Secretary Rubio’s threat of secondary sanctions, calling the U.S. measures illegal unilateral actions that lacked U.N. authorization. While Washington raises walls, Beijing is opening doors. On May 1, Chinese tariffs on imports from all 53 African countries with which China holds diplomatic relations plunged to zero. Europeans now enter China visa-free. India’s Modi government is fast-tracking minority Chinese investment in seven strategic sectors. China’s DeepSeek AI went open source, giving the world’s developers free access to a frontier Chinese AI model. While Washington is tightening export controls on America’s AI enterprise, China is open for business. And then there is Beijing’s ace: rare earths. Beijing’s control of neodymium, praseodymium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, and yttrium oxides is virtually total. Every advanced weapons system, every electric drivetrain, every wind turbine, every smartphone in the United States runs through China’s critical materials. To replenish its weapons stockpiles that have been depleted due to America’s proxy war against Russia and its open warfare against Iran, the U.S. Department of Defense now needs Beijing’s permission to restock. The rules of the road are being rewritten, and they are being rewritten in Beijing. The verdict is in. The Alliance of Democracies’ Democracy Perception Index, which was released on May 8, puts China’s net global perception at +7%. Meanwhile, the international perception of the U.S. has collapsed. Two years ago, it sat comfortably at +22%. Today, it has plunged to a dismal -16%. It is clear that Trump will be tiptoeing through the tulips with Xi and coming home empty-handed.
