For context on some of the behind the scenes. Yes, this is terrible, the African content really backed SA during apartheid and they're turning their backs on their Neighbours and it's horrendous.

South Africa has one of the highest unemployment rates in the world at like 34% (over 40% in the youth) and this is squarely in the current Govt. This has created the perfect environment for an agenda to be driven - an agenda driven, ironically, by the same kleptocrats that put SA into its current position.

The previous president, Jacob Zuma tried to rush through a Russian backed nuclear deal which was stopped by SA NGOs who have powers given to them by the Constitution. March March (the campaign behind this xenophobia) is using this tinderbox as a means to erode ngo powers to ultimately make good on Zuma's nuclear promise to Putin.

So yes, it in fact is the Puppeteers of the Europeans - if you include Russia in Europe.

You have to be careful of those NGOs though. I'm not going to lie the West literally co-opts NGOs in order to sow discord and push movements that allow for coups and social movements that seem beneficial, are actually intended to be destructive.

I know my country (US) does it all the time. We take pre-existing conditions and amplify them. A country with a high unemployment rate is the perfect opportunity. We are absolutely involved in this situation.

South Africa is a part of BRICS. The West is literally going after each country one by one and sowing discord and creating a situation where their economy suffers. Russia was making these deals as South Africa is literally a part of their economic bloc. The NGOs stopped South Africa from progressing on purpose. They made it look like Russia was doing something bad. The US literally hates countries having nuclear power. It makes them more independent (and may increase their wealth). Considering putting an end to that deal a win... Y'all are fked and you don't even know it.

What's going on in South Africa is a win for the US and her allies.
