But should the car be given to the first thief and taken from the thief who stole it from him?

According to some posters, that would be the equivalent analogy.

I don't think it should be violent or something that happens overnight, but yeah, there should be a shift of power. Obviously it's still a hot topic and a lot of people want it to happen in South Africa, you know the actual people living there, so maybe they know more about the situation than you do.

But I forgot that Proudclad thinks he knows everything and that his opinion is correct in every single situation.

The government would've been better off starting a free grant/tuition program for blacks looking into farming and setting aside some good government land for that, along with providing no interest loans or having black farmers share farming equipment bought/rented by the government.

Perhaps there's limitations in this kind of plan, but it's better to jump those hurdles then outright transferring farmland from one person to another with seemingly no requirements on the government sanctioned taker of that land.

Actually, the white population is slated to be a minority in America within the next 30 years. And white enrollment in college + graduation rates have come down in recent years. I believe white people go to college/graduate less than black people now.

So after nearly a quarter of a century of foot-dragging by the ANC government over the land issue, whites still own almost all farmland in South Africa? Yet there've been klaxons screaming about an "imminent white genocide" ever since 1994... However you might view the prospect of heavy-handed evictions, it's still pretty fucking far off "kill every white person", and idiots who claim it shows the government's on a knife-edge of mass genocide are actually doing white landowners no favours, because principled opposition to the stupidity, cynicism and injustice of the farm seizures policy gets buried beneath all the bullshit hyperbole. For Chrissake, even anti-apartheid activists who attacked the (far bigger) forced removals of black South Africans under the National Party regime never made the stupid claim that it was the first step on the road to "killing all black people".

Eh, idk. I'm not claiming to be an expert on the subject in regards to South Africa, but the situation doesn't feel right and seems a little like something someone could say in March 1994 about "see, decades of majority rule and there's no mass slaughter of Tutsi by the Hutu in Rwanda."

It doesn't help allay that feeling when Mandela's wife was way more into anti-white farmer rhetoric than he was when she was alive, similar to how the wife of the Hutu President who got a ceasefire with the RPF and got shot down was a big supporter of the interhamwe herself.

So if somebody stole your car, then sold it, the person who bought it should be allowed to keep it?

Ultimately somebody stole the land from the native citizens and enforced the premise of buying land and ownership of it. Just because it was legal by the invader's policies doesn't make it acceptable.

Yeah but once some time goes by, its different than if someone stole your car since you're not even dealing with the original people involved and it just becomes iffy. No matter what you do, there's not gonna be a solution that's 100% fair since both parties at this point are (probably?) innocent of whatever happened before. Hell, a lot of us probably live on land that was stolen from Native Americans, but its not our faults that it was stolen.

Let help you out..... You made a statement saying.. "implementing a similar policy in America." I told you that it already had been done. Then you went all on the deep end saying I want it to happen again. (even though it is still going on now. But that's a different story) So I ask you when did I say that. So now you're mad that you didn't get the answer you wanted, and want to say people don't have no backbone and I'm hiding behind "one liners". Wahh!

Do you own a house or a car gunplgirl?


I don't think you're ever going to get an honest answer to that, let alone an explanation as to why all white, black, Asian and other non-native people living in the US right now shouldn't turn over all their property for redistribution. It'll probably just be some special pleading about how that is different and they don't have to follow their own logic.

There are no parallels to Rwanda, whose First and Second Republics had a history of mass slaughter of Tutsi in 1959-64 and 1990-1993. If anything, a closer parallel might be Idi Amin's mass expropriation of Asian-owned businesses in Uganda in 1972. (It was the prelude to the expulsion of around 60,000 Asians who didn't hold Ugandan citizenship, but not "genocide".)

- Do I think that land seizures risk economic instability and food supply insecurity, whether short or long term? Yes.
- Do I think it's a cynical, populist vote-grabbing exercise filled with empty promises and false expectations, meant to deflect criticism of the ANC government for its economic failures? Yes.
- Do I think that confiscation without compensation amounts to theft? Sometimes.

- Do I think that rural evictions amount to "genocide" and that the next step is to "kill all white people"? No, I don't.
- Is this the biggest, or even the only story about people being dispossessed of their land by governments in Africa in recent years? No, it isn't.
- Is the biggest, or even the only news story coming out Africa for me because white farm owners have the same skin colour that I do? No, it isn't.
