UNREST broke out in parts of South Africa amid chronic food shortages sparked by the coronavirus pandemic.

Looters raided shops, attacked each other, the army and police after breaching one of the strictest lockdowns in the world.


Check out this sensationalism:

The unrest comes after a report by the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa warned that the coronavirus death toll across Africa could reach 3.3million people.

The continent has seen only 20,000 cases and 1,000 deaths so far, but those figures are expected to rise over the coming months.


An obviously well trained SA police force:



Waiting on government food parcels:



There is certainly reason for immediate panic in South Africa:

Go talk to any of the South Africans that have managed to escape to the Sasol plants in the US - those pictures might have just come from a random Tuesday in Johannesburg.

It’s South Africa, after the systemic genocide they are visiting on the Boer farmers I don’t give a flying frick. But in liberal logic two wrongs make a right.

They've been in a severe drought for years.

Plus rioting is quite common. I know a man who lived there, the rioting nearby got so bad he abandoned his family farm and business, emigrated first to Canada and eventually to the US.

It’s only because no one from the 1st world has any reason to travel to Africa. Once it takes hold, it’s going to devastate the entire continent.

That’s why I included the picture and called them “well trained.”

Correct. Thankfully Africa only had large amounts of travel/traffic from China due to the massive investment in the continent by the country over the past ten or more years.

So with it only being traffic from China it hasn't been too bad.
