The issue around the Genocide narrative in South Africa is a complex one, and I see it dumbed down and oversimplified quite often, particularly from the left, who want to sell it down the road as a mere "conspiracy theory" as @HeidiGiokos does here.

Let me explain this with a nuanced approach throughout my research on the subject.

Let's start with the cold, hard legal definition of genocide, straight from the 1948 UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide:

Genocide is ANY (not just murder) act committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or IN PART, a national, ethnical, racial, or religious group.

This includes:

- Killing members of the group
- Causing serious bodily or mental harm
- Deliberately inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about physical destruction
- Preventing births
- Forcibly transferring children

Critics – mostly left-leaning media and the ANC government – scream "conspiracy theory" whenever anyone dares apply this to white South Africans.

Is this deliberate deception?

Thread 👇🧵 It is important to understand that #farmmurders are the bloody tip of the iceberg in the debate.

These aren't random. They're targeted at the most visible symbol of white land ownership: FARMERS.

There is a large debate around the stats, and many who often claim that the attacks affect all South Africans, and they surely do, but that does not obviate the fact that white farmers are in fact experiencing brutal, torturous killings that often involve rape, mutilation, and hours of agony, far beyond simple robbery.

👉Yet focusing only on murders misses the bigger picture.

The real destruction appears to be slower, systemic, and state-sanctioned. It is a multi-pronged war on white identity, economic survival, culture, heritage, and dignity of which appears to make South Africa unlivable for whites, driving them out while dismantling their presence piece by piece.... slowly.

This isn't an accident. It is government policy.

Let me explain.

The whole MTN thing reminds me of the Hitachi scandal. And the ANC mustn't lecture anyone on TREASON.

When corruption is so blatant that it gets prosecuted in another country, you know the rot runs deep. Some of you might remember Hitachi Power Africa.

The ANC didn’t just loot locally it cashed in globally.

Hitachi Power Africa wanted a piece of Eskom’s Medupi and Kusile contracts. Billions in taxpayer money! But to seal the deal, they needed a politically connected partner. Enter Chancellor House, the ANC’s investment front, designed to quietly funnel money into the party.

🧵👇Image Hitachi Power Africa was bidding for massive contracts at Medupi and Kusile power stations, worth tens of billions of rands. To strengthen its bid, it brought in a local partner: Chancellor House Holdings

Chancellor House wasn’t just any investor.
It was a funding vehicle for the ANC itself.

Chancellor House bought a 25% stake in Hitachi Power Africa. This meant that every time Hitachi earned profits from Eskom contracts, 25% of those profits flowed directly to Chancellor House, and by extension, the ANC.

Eskom awarded Hitachi the boiler contracts for Medupi and Kusile, collectively worth over R38 billion. Those contracts guaranteed massive profits, which Hitachi would share with its shareholders, including Chancellor House.Image

REMEMBERING MEGAN CREMER
One of the most botched cases I've ever seen.

Meghan Cremer was a 30-year-old showjumper and manager at Woodstock Bakery in Cape Town, South Africa. She lived in a cottage on Vaderlandsche Rietvlei Stables, a horse farm where she also kept her horses. What began as a routine evening in August 2019 escalated into a high-profile disappearance, murder investigation, and controversial trial that spanned years, culminating in an acquittal and a failed state appeal. Below is a detailed timeline of events based on court records, police investigations, and media reports.

đź§µImage On the evening of August 3, 2019, Cremer was last seen alive at her cottage on the farm. A visitor who stopped by shortly before 6:24 pm reported that she appeared normal and mentioned nothing about leaving the property. At 6:24 pm, CCTV footage captured her white Toyota Auris leaving the farm through the bottom gate, though it was unclear who was driving. Minutes later, farm owners Linda Mohr and her family noticed Cremer's dog running loose and unattended. They attempted to contact her, but their calls went unanswered.

Later that evening, at around 7:02 pm, the car was spotted on CCTV at a Shell garage on Strandfontein Road. By approximately 11:30 pm, the vehicle passed through a police roadblock in Wynberg. A colleague of Cremer's from Woodstock Bakery, who happened to see the car, alerted officers that the three occupants were not the legal owners and suggested searching the boot, but no action was taken. He then reported it to Wynberg police.Image

ANALYSIS: Ramaposa/Trump Meet and How It Goes Down.

The upcoming meeting between South African President Cyril Ramaphosa and U.S. President Donald Trump is a critical focus.

The current US administration negotiates aggressively and with significant economic and geopolitical leverage, the U.S. will likely push hard. Very hard.

Here's my take on how that all goes down.

🧵 👇Image Trump will demand lower tariffs and better market access for U.S. companies, particularly in South Africa’s mining and agricultural sectors. Expect a push for a new trade agreement that prioritizes U.S. interests.

South Africa’s ties with China and Russia, along with its stance on Israel’s genocide case, will face scrutiny. Trump will likely pressure Ramaphosa to align more closely with U.S. foreign policy, potentially demanding security cooperation, including access to South African ports or bases, and clarity on its nuclear stance.

South Africa’s 2032 Economic Demise Scenario
Nightmare Unveiled: 9 Million Jobless, Trillion-Rand Deficit, and Chaos Waiting to Explode!

What the Government isn't telling you and the reality of where we are heading.

This theory projects South Africa’s economic and social trajectory to 2032, assuming stagnant GDP growth (0% real growth) and escalating socio-economic pressures, leading to a Without Rule of Law (WROL) scenario by 2030.

CONDENSED NARRATIVE (PERFECT STORM)
South Africa, with stagnant GDP, faces 9.21 million unemployed by 2032, pushing the deficit to R1.32 trillion and debt to 100% of GDP. This fuels a WROL scenario by 2030, far worse than the 2021 riots, resembling Venezuela’s and Zimbabwe’s collapses more than Argentina’s recoverable crisis. Only 23% of the unemployed and 31% of the 15-65 age group will vote, reflecting disillusionment. A 5% GDP growth rate could avert this fate, but without it, fiscal and social breakdown is IMMINENT, echoing historical patterns of economic demise.

I’d be grateful if you could help spread the word about this. I’ve poured a lot of effort into it, and I truly believe it offers a clear and comprehensive look at what’s coming our way soon if we don’t take bold action right now.

If you found it worth your time, please give it a LIKE and REPOST to share it further!

Thread
🔽🔽🔽🔽🔽🔽🔽🔽Image KEY ASSUMPTIONS:
🔸 No real GDP growth from 2024-2032
🔸 Unemployment rising due to a growing labor force and stagnant employment
🔸 Fiscal deterioration based on historical deficit trends.

Projections are grounded in historical statistics (e.g., unemployment, GDP, budget deficits) and trends from South Africa and comparable countries (Zimbabwe, Venezuela, Argentina), adjusted for current data as of February 22, 2025.

Black podcasters describe white South Africans as inhuman. Literal dogs. Animals.

"White people are inferior species to us"
"They have Neanderthal blood in them"
"We are dealing with the weakest whites"
"White people are just below human beings"
"You are negotiating with an animal - a wild dog"

@POTUS @elonmusk @EndWokeness @SecRubio @Sec_Noem @MarioNawfal @JackPosobiec @SAHRCommission @twatterbaas I maintain that this aligns with Step 3: Dehumanization of the "10 Steps of Genocide," a framework developed by Dr. Gregory Stanton to describe the stages leading to genocidal violence, for genocide watch.

Dehumanization (Step 3): This step occurs when one group denies the humanity of another, comparing them to animals or subhuman entities to justify mistreatment. The explicit language here—"inhuman," "literal dogs," "animals," "wild dog," "just below human beings"—directly dehumanizes white South Africans, portraying them as lesser beings unworthy of empathy or rights.

How to solve South Africa's Land Question
18 February 2025

An Open Letter Addressed to @GovernmentZA @CyrilRamaphosa

In the spirit of Ubuntu, if you're truly transparent about the interests of the people, this is a lengthy read that could hold an answer to our most complex question, instead of trying to play "who was here first".

@GodPenuel once asked: "How do we solve the land question, without redress" and I often get asked the same question on daily interactions on X.

Expropriation without compensation stumbles because it’s adversarial, slow, and resource-intensive.
It's probably the largest contributor to forcing racial division in South Africa, which puts us in the position we are in on the international stage, and will take decades in courts before we ever get anywhere.

My approach flips that: it’s voluntary, fast, and leans on self-interest rather than morality.
It won’t erase history or satisfy calls for justice overnight, but it could get more people working the land, feeding the country, and building wealth ALOT faster than the current plan.

South Africa’s challenge is scale and trust—landowners fear losing control, and communities doubt promises after decades of disappointment. Incentives have to be ironclad: no vague “social good” appeals, just cold, hard economics. Tax breaks need to be generous, co-op profits tangible, and the registry has to be incorruptible.

SOLUTIONS IN THREAD đź§µ The INCORRUPTABLE National Land Pool Program (Blockchain)

Attempt again to incentivize voluntary land/property transfers. Many large landowners, particularly those with underutilized or speculative holdings, could be persuaded to sell or lease if the financial and social benefits outweighed the costs of holding on. Offer tax breaks, subsidies, or guaranteed income streams (like long-term leases back to the original owner) that encourage this.

Pair that with a National “Land Pool” Program landowners opt-in to contribute excess or idle land to a trust, which then allocates it to aspiring farmers or communities. In return, contributors get equity stakes in the trust’s future profits—think of it as a real estate investment trust (REIT) for farmland. This keeps the market intact, rewards participation, and avoids the animosity of expropriation.

NB! The catch is ensuring the trust is managed transparently, with clear rules on who qualifies for access—prioritizing local, landless communities with viable farming plans.

🚨 FOLLOW ME DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE 🚨

And let me show you how you are MANIPULATED to such an extent that you ultimately end up at each other's throats.

X became a circus this week when @IOL launched their first attack on the @Our_DA @helenzille and GNU using a new white MP @RenaldoGouws as cannon fodder.

Shortly after, they launched their second attack using another white MP, namely @IanCameron23

They launched these attacks strategically, only displaying the shock value and omitting valuable additional context, which left South Africa in a race debate for the better part of the week.

What most South Africans DON'T know is WHY!

These smear campaigns are largely driven by Sekunjalo Independent Media which owns Independent Online @IOL of which the founder is contraversiol billionaire Iqbal Survé.

Iqbal Survé is involved in many shady and controversial government dealings. Although the matter is not yet fully settled, the PIC and the Government Employees Pension Fund have lost at least R2.5-BILLION.

He has been completely shut out by the banking industry. FNB, Nedbank, Mercantile Bank and Standard Bank started closing their doors last year to Sekunjalo and related entities, including Independent Newspapers, owing to reputational risk.

In January, the JSE advised that both Ayo and AEEI shares faced suspension if the two Sekunjalo-related companies failed to release their annual reports by the end of the month.

In February, shareholders voted for AEEI to be de­­listed.

He's been waging a public-relations war, using a team of pliant journalists, PR staffers, and seemingly fictitious opinion writers to polish his image and attack journalists critical of him.

Iqbal Survé is a funder of RET progressive forces. There's also speculation that he's behind the funding of the MK party.

Claims by a former staffer set out how Survé has established a communications "WAR ROOM" from his private office and how he was tasked with "FINDING DIRT" on the country's biggest banks – as the Sekunjalo business empire battles in court to retain their financial facilities.

Iqbal uses this same strategy and MO to launch attacks on political opponents as he needed a progressive force coalition in the form of the ANC/EFF/MK etc. to keep his economic empire intact, and himself from paying back the debt.

When the GNU and ANC/DA coalition threatened this, the same dirt-finding strategies were deployed against the DA.

➡️People/Institutions would be paid to dig up dirt.

➡️ IOL would run with it and "expose" it.

➡️The script would be passed to social media influencers to generate outrage.

The "dirt" will most certainly need to hit his opponent where it's going to hurt most and how would one want to perpetuate the RACIST DA catchphrase?

Find some new dirt and portray the new DA MP's as racist to cast further doubt on the GNU and the ANC.

➡️Finally - ENSURE THAT YOU ARE OUTRAGED AND AT EACH OTHER THROATS to run with it even further.

🚨So who are these Pliant Journalists and PR staffers?

Hint: Most of the race grifters you already know.

1. Meet @Ori_RSA
Otherwise known as Oriphulusa Nyadzhiwa.

Self-proclaimed IOL “columnist”, that has in fact written for IOL.

Instrumental in controversial X posts that usually stir up racial tensions under his large following, Ori was the genesis source of a recent fake DA internal document that circulated the Web and Whatsapp groups forging @helenzille signature.

Read more here:

He has also be instrumental in the spreading of the IOL articles about @RenaldoGouws and @IanCameron23

When there's forgery and racial tension in the air, Ori is generally somewhere to be found.africacheck.org/fact-checks/me…Image
