- ceejayoz 10mo agoDepends on skin color. https://za.usembassy.gov/refugee-admissions-program-for-south-africans/ https://za.usembassy.gov/refugee-admissions-program-for-sout... > Consistent with President Trump’s Executive Order on Addressing Egregious Actions of the Republic of South Africa, the Department of State is coordinating with the Department of Homeland Security to consider eligibility for U.S. refugee resettlement for people who are of Afrikaner ethnicity or a member of a racial minority in South Africa who are victims of government-sponsored race-based discrimination. (That's a lot of words to say "white".)
- chrneu 10mo agoA lot of the folks in trump's cabinet are pro-apartheid white supremacists. they think white people in SA are the victims. Stephen Miller is a great example. I'm not disagreeing with ya, just adding more context.
