The program is actually for all South African minorities, including non-whites. I've read a few interview with non-whites who went to America via the program. Don't worry about the Afrikaners replacing you; there aren't that many to begin with, and I can't see that many will take up the offer.
I have a niece who has worked from Nairobi to resettle real refugees from the most terrible situations. Now she spends all of her time on this BS. She used to very proud of her job.
Ta, Gary. I met a number of South Africans traveling around the world. They weren't farmers, and the only place they were interested in visiting stateside was NYC. Oh, and the boat captain who taught me sailing was another. He was great.
As always, when this topic comes up, I highly recommend Molly Conger's multi-episode examination of the absolute bullshit at the heart of this on her Weird Little Guys podcast...
But, but, but, those Billionaires need new places to play and new homes by the sea to park their yachts. Doesn't anyone care for the Billionaires anymore??/1!!??
On some levels this is funny. White people rejecting trump is probably one of his biggest nightmares. I do hope the press follows some of these people around to get their take on the USA under trump. Further, it would be fun if at least a couple had negative interactions with ICE.
Way back in the Before Times, somewhere about 2000, The Mem and I visited the US. Without wishing to be an arse, the immigration officer had a very Latina name and strong accent. We were grilled on when we last worked and when we would work when we went home.
Apparently laughing out loud because we made more in the UK than we would in the US, and no, you couldn’t pay me to move there were the wrong answers.
But polite and white so no hay problema con La Migra.
It will. And the blue collar MAGAT hee haw hicks are twiddling their dicks b/c they're so happy.
Particularly, and one of the Palantir fuckers said it out loud, they want it to disrupt educated women's work and "stifle their economic and political power."
There are already fruit sprayers that can spray entire orchards, with the nozzles varying the spray based on the height of individual trees. And there are weed sprayers that turn off and don't spray the crops, but do recognize weeds and turn on the nozzles to hit them.
Oh, and they can both be connected to tractors that do not need a human bean behind the wheel but can travel the correct route via GPS. They can do this on small fields like in the Southeast where one field will have a copse of woods extending into part of it or if it's a massive Nebraska soybean field the size of half a county.
Those have been around for several years, actually.
The irrigation units can be programmed to turn individual nozzles off when traveling over areas that are adequately watered and to apply extra water to dry spots. They can be told to turn off and on depending on the amount of rainfall the field has received.

They need the money to pay people to resettle here because Saving Face Is All They Do anymore.
All the Party is concerned about is optics, and lining their own pockets.
Boy that sounds familiar.

Can't understand why they'd want Greenland & Venezuela (& Cuba?) as states, that would make the USA darker.

Ugggg
oh please...we do NOT need more racist "seth effrican" yahoos like Musk or Thiel. We could use a hundred or so more Trevor Noah's though!
Mama always said, "Stupid is as stupid does."
How do they even say this isn’t totally racist with a straight face?
same way they said the gerrymandering to favour white ppl isn't racist
An apartheid neo-nazi food truck on every corner!!!!!! (I think would prefer a taco truck)
Wait that is any ICE's lunch truck in Minneapolis.
A little tangential, another idea for defining white supremacism: The belief that being 1.6% African American makes you 0% white.

I still remain amazed that any person from a stable country would want to immigrate to the US.
... I think that's the joke.
OK, I'll leave now 😅
AI will probably take the "white jobs" first.
Just sayin' . . .
Farmer in Iowa?
It will. And the blue collar MAGAT hee haw hicks are twiddling their dicks b/c they're so happy.

It's time to fucking FIGHT, people. Seriously.
It's not like we have computers that can go out in the fields and harvest for nine or ten hours without overheating....

Irrigation is one thing, and yeah, that equipment is amazing. Harvesting isn’t quite the same.
