South African Politician Who Called For Killing White Farmers Convicted On Hate Speech Charges

It was the White House ambush that shocked the world.  A South African delegation headed by president Cyril Ramaphosa arrived in Washington DC with big grins and smug confidence, ready to milk the American taxpayer for even more foreign aid.  What they received instead was thorough embarrassment.

Trump confronted Ramaphosa on the issue of race-based land seizures through the Expropriation Act of 2024, which largely targets white farmers for confiscation (There are 140 race based laws that oppress whites in SA) .  The land is then redistributed to black citizens who often run the farms into the ground. The leader has denied that land confiscation is taking place.  The South African government and the leftist media has spent the better part of the year trying to spin the issue and deny their motives.  

When asked by reporters what he could do to convince Trump there there was no threat of “white genocide” in South Africa, Ramaphosa chuckled and shrugged off the accusation, suggesting that Trump had been misinformed.  Trump surprised the leftist political leader with a video montage proving otherwise. 

The South African government, dominated by woke political activists, has tried to cover up the targeting of white farmers by race communists for years.  Their efforts to expropriate land from those same farmers sent a clear message that they are in support of the ethnic cleansing of whites.  

Trumps montage featured a number of speeches by communist EFF party leader Julius Malema.  Malema represents around 10% of South African voters, but all parties in South Africa are essentially socialist or communist in their ideals and Malema’s sentiments are shared by many of their members.  White conservatives in SA have near-zero representation in the government.  Malema’s chant of “Kill the Boer” (kill the white farmer), is not limited to members of the EFF. 

Malema had been brought up on charges of inciting race violence through hate speech before, and was convicted on lesser incidents in 2011.  None of the charges for his genocide chants stuck.  The courts categorized “Kill the Boer, Kill the Farmer” as a type of protest song.  It was treated as protected cultural expression rather than what it really was, a call to mass murder.  Malema famously noted:

‘No white man is going to beat me up…You must never be scared to kill. A revolution demands that at some point there must be killing…”  

The Home Office said Malema had also made “statements calling for the slaughter of white people [in South Africa] or hinted that it could be an acceptable option in the future”.

However, after pressure placed on SA leaders by the Trump Administration through sanctions, South Africa is starting to feel the pain and they are rolling over.  Malema has been brought up on charges again and this time he was convicted by an “equality court” for inciting violence through hate speech.

It might be the first time that a leftist bureaucratic institution in South Africa has actually punished a leftist group instead of protecting them from prosecution.  The EFF has responded by rolling out one of their token white members to deflect, concocting a story in which Malema led the chants because of a supposed “racist incident” at a high school that occurred years earlier (which did not involve farmers).  In other words, it was the white man’s fault that Malema called for the killing of whites.  

The EFF asserts that their actions are in response to “white supremacy”, but that excuse isn’t going to hold water anymore.  The equality court’s ruling justifies Trump’s concerns about anti-white racism in South Africa.  Furthermore, whites only make of around 7% of the population and have no power in government.  A group cannot be “supreme” if they have no power.

It is the leading party, the ANC, and their partners in numerous other socialist parties that have run the nation into the ground.  At this time, South Africa is nearing total collapse, with a 33% unemployment rate and crumbling infrastructure.

This is what happens when leftists are allowed to take power.  The result is an economic implosion with white conservatives and producers used as a convenient scapegoat. South African leaders are clearly not used to this kind of scrutiny.  They have long been shielded from western criticism by the establishment media. 

Trump is the first president to put a spotlight on the backwards leftist government and its grotesque mismanagement, and it appears that his efforts are beginning to have an effect.  Not so much in punishing Malema, it is unlikely he will face any real consequences.  Rather, it’s the fact that South Africa has been forced to acknowledge the ethnic hatred of whites as a tangible issue.  It’s a geopolitical win and a win against leftist propaganda.
