Meltdown in La La Land… CRT/DEI paradise South Africa on the brink…

[Revolver] A country of 60 million is on the verge of "collapse" amid rolling blackouts and warnings of "civil war" scale unrest.

South Africa is on the verge of "collapse" amid rolling blackouts and warnings a total power grid failure could lead to mass rioting on the scale of a "civil war".

Western embassies including the United States and Australia have advised their citizens in the country to stock up on "several days worth" of food and water and be on high alert during extended blackouts sweeping the country.

South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa declared a national "state of disaster" on February 9 in response to the record electricity shortage, which has seen state-owned power company Eskom institute rolling blackouts — dubbed "load shedding" — lasting up to 12 hours in some cases.

Shocking. Who could have possibly predicted such an outcome? I recommend sending a British-Australian stabilization force at once ?

Our own DoD could assist by sending wagons, horses, ammunition, drones, etc.

The mines, they must be protected ?

#4 A Boer thought? Op een of ander manier was dit onvermydelik sodra Mandela gewen het?

/\ Yes, indeed "inevitable." A black national hero was needed. Mandela was a shoe in for the ANC kommunis. There should be no surprises there, or here for that matter.

#7 ...A quick thought experiment: If things were to go well and truly sideways, would China (#1 miner of gold in the world) be tempted to step in and assist a new "people's" government in SA (#12 miner of gold in the world) and thereby effectively control about 20% of the world's gold supply?

#8 I always wondered if one major goal of the ANC was to screw the Zulus.
