Bring their oppressed, reverse-Aparthied farmers to lush, green Oklahoma. We'll welcome them with open arms.
Leave Wakanda to their own vices, and watch the results unfold.
Imagine what they would be able to produce anywhere in the South.

Dumb fricks are going to starve themselves to death

The book “A Few Hard Men” about the Rhodesian SAS during the Rhodesian Bush Wars is an excellent read. Whites got hung out by the English and the rest of the world. Whole area of south Africa went to shite.

They took from the producers and gave to the leeches. Now everyone is starving

That awkward moment when they found out the crops didn't just naturally grow there
FA and FO that farming is hard work and takes meticulous planning.

I really enjoyed the book. It’s frustrating though.

Stupid liberals and even dumber conservatives will be sending money to support starving South Africans within a decade.

It's fricking unbelievable how fast it collapsed.
I worked all over Sub-Saharan Africa right after the Mugabe foolishness and right after the Mozambique civil war.
Farming is a 24/7/365 deal. You work when the weather lets you and not when you want to, or how you want to.
You can lose a major farm in the US with just one year of bad decisions even if you made a crop.
Now imagine if you don’t know shite, are entitled, and lazy.
What you see in production ag. today is a very complex management problem. It doesn’t grow by magic.

I'm currently reading "Hero of the Empire." about Churchill's experience in the 2nd Bristish/Boer war (1899-1902). There's a good bit in the book about the history of the Boers in South Africa. I was surprised to learn that the Boers have been in South Africa since 1652, with a second wave arriving in 1680 after France expelled the Huguenots. So while not indigenous to the area, the Boers have been in South Africa a helluva lot longer than I realized.

I'll definitely stop paying taxes then. This country needs to stop sending money in an effort to fix stupid. Stupid cannot be fixed, the most humane thing to do is let nature take its course.

All those do-gooders wanting to free the blacks in South Africa, and now they are free to starve themselves to death.
But the do-gooders got in their virtue-signaling, and had their cocktail parties, and that's what really counts, isn't it?

Do you know what people do when they are faced with starvation? Hint, it gets very bad.

I bought this book last week and just started it today.
Rhodesia and what happened to it is a microcosm of global communism vs the sovereign nation state. We see it all around us today.
The US was chicken shite to not help them out vs Mugabe & Nkomo (who were backed by the Chinese and Soviets)
If Rhodesia could’ve held on just a year or 2 longer, I would bet money that Reagan would’ve been a huge backer of theirs.
