Chapter 1: What are the current issues in South Africa?
People who are campaigning against this are only doing this because they are white supremacists and because they want to bring back the apartheid system. So that's the accusation. Again, it's bizarre. So if you don't want people to be murdered, that means you are somehow a racist. Well, that's their position. And after that, I haven't heard the South African government say much about this.
Okay, guys, first guest from South Africa, Ernst here today. I've always wanted to go there. So I'm excited to chat to someone that's from there. Thanks for coming on, man.
Thank you. Thank you for having me. And I'm honored to be the first and hopefully I'm not the last.
Yeah, there's a lot going on there, man. So we need to cover it.
Yeah, well, South Africa has been interesting. It's weird because South Africa, there were some times in history when South Africa was sort of the focus of the world. One time was during the Boer War at the turn of the previous century when a lot of The international community was looking at what's happening in South Africa when we were fighting the English.
And then everyone sort of forgot about South Africa. Then we had apartheid. And then during the 80s and the 90s, the whole world was looking at South Africa again. And so the narrative was that we had this, you know, this evil, oppressive past. And South Africa was then liberated by this incredible movement called the ANC, the African National Congress. led by Nelson Mandela.
And then it was this miracle story. South Africa became this incredible peaceful place and then everyone just turned away. And now all of a sudden, South Africa is becoming an international focus again, for which we are very grateful because there's a lot happening and there's a lot that should be mentioned and talked about.
Why do you think it's becoming an international focus right now?
Because the... The world was misled during the 1990s about what South Africa would be. It's quite funny. There's a documentary film. I think it's called Miracle Rising. It was produced by the BBC. And it has all these celebrities talking about just how amazing South Africa is now after the political transition.

Chapter 2: How is South Africa's political history influencing current events?
It doesn't matter if you bought the land. If you buy a farm, but you are white, then you are somehow, your ownership is illegitimate and you should be targeted for owning the land. Holy crap. Yeah, it's crazy. And so we have these politicians on the left who are talking about how, and this is a direct quote, white people are criminals and should be treated as such.
And we need to slit the throat of whiteness. And we are involved with a revolution and a revolution necessarily involves killing. You know, they would make speeches talking about that. And then they would talk about the farmers who are to blame for everything that is wrong with the country.
So the farmers have become the scapegoat or sort of a metaphor for everything that everyone is angry about, especially if you are black and you are poor, then everything should be blamed on the farmers, the white farmers. Wow. And so they make these speeches and then they burst into song and they chant, kill the Boer, kill the farmer.
So the Boer is a reference to the Afrikaner people, but it's also the Afrikaans word for farmer. And we see that sometimes during these attacks, obviously there would be some that have no political motive. We don't know. You have to ask the attacker or the perpetrator what their motive was. So a lot of these attacks we don't know.
But in some of the cases, it's very clear that there was a political motive. We know this because the attackers would chant political slogans while torturing the people. Sometimes they would write slogans such as kill the boer on like the farm wall. In one extreme case, they took the blood of the victims and they actually wrote that on the wall. They wrote kill the boer. Yeah, so...
So yeah, it's really crazy. There needs to be an intervention. Something needs to happen.
And there's a lot of cover-ups, right? We were talking earlier how the media is not reporting on some of these.
It's really spectacular to see how the media is responding to these attacks. So in this book, we did a study on the attacks and what we did, it was a very interesting study. So we took every single incident of violence on a farm, not just farm attacks. So anything that happens on a farm where there's violence that we could find. hundreds of cases or perhaps thousands.
I can't remember the amount that we could found in the media at least. And we broke them up according to every variable. So variables would be, where did this happen? What time did it happen? How many people were there? What methods of torture was used? And then the race dynamics involved. And what we found We then compared that. We also considered how the media reported on it.
