Paul Simon also got all sorts of shit from western leftists for recording Graceland, arguably one of the greatest albums of the 20th century, in South Africa at the height of the state of emergency in 1985 - with mostly black musicians no less, whom he gave writing credits and royalties too. He couldn’t have been more respectful to the culture but he was still raked over the coals by lefties in the U.S. and U.K.

White farmers whipped and robbed of their vehicles
Hospital set on fire for monkey reasons.
Or this one, who hurt his leg while looting. He'll be in trouble if they decide to burn that place too.

It is rumored he was being charged as being black. Of course, there are dozens of articles on-line about his real charges if you're willing to take a peak.

If you want to see just a tiny glimmer of hope, along with a warts-and-all look at South Africa, check out Anton Koen on YT. He owns a private security firm just outside of Johannesburg that specialises in intercepting and retrieving hijacked vehicles. His patrol car, a VW Golf R 7.5, sounds badass too.
SAPS is known for being utterly shit. They're either (a) incompetent, (b) corrupt or (c) both. There's a reason why so many South Africans, black and white, pay for private security services.

If I were him, I would take my patrol car and drive until I reach the other end of the continent.

He could have easily buggered off to Australia years ago (like many other white South Africans did), but he's too patriotic to do that. I have a feeling that Anton's faith gets him through; you can hear gospel music on his car stereo in some of his earlier vids and Christianity is huge in South Africa. I'm guessing he got one of those demonetised at some point, which is why the Golf R provides the soundtrack now.
Paul Simon going to South Africa and recording Graceland when everyone else in the music biz was chimping out against Apartheid is the most based thing he's ever done. It's also his best album IMHO.

There’s actually around 4-5 million whites in South Africa, and if you want to include the rest of the continent, there’s around 6-7 million white Africans in all. Zambia, Botswana, Namibia, Kenya, Malawi, southern Mozambique and Angola still have sizable white minorities, but they’ve faired much better in recent years, particularly in Botswana as always. Honestly surprised more rural whites haven’t skipped the border into Botswana, where they’re largely safe and prosperous.

His persistence is honourable but is SA still worth being patriotic about? I am not as informed about SA as I am about other conflicts, but I don’t think they will ever recover or go back to their golden days (economically speaking). The very structure of the nation has radically changed over the years.

The only thing that could make this worse is if the power grid finally gave out. I think Eskom's only supposed to be able to keep the lights on for a few more years before everything goes dark forever.
In short, he sold the government's institutions, infrastructure, and capital to the Guptas, a billionaire family of Pajeet opportunists who set up up shop in the country after the end of white minority rule. They literally had to coin a brand new term for this type of graft (state capture), since it's so much vaster in scope and scale than anything else that came before.
The Boer and Afrikaner people will lose their identity within a generation or two if they uproot themselves from African soil. Their bilingualism makes the especially susceptible to assimilation when emigrating to Anglo countries. It's happened before in their history, 120 years ago with the Boer exile colonies in Argentina and America, and they remember what happened then. If they want to survive as a people, they have to stay in Africa. If they want to survive as individuals, they have to leave Africa. It's a paradox that is difficult to reconcile.

Graceland is a five-star classic, and The Boy in the Bubble is one of the strongest album openers recorded. Rhythm of the Saints was a spectacular follow-up album (Obvious Child!) but criminally underrated, though that’s understandable since it had Graceland to live up to.

Makes you glad SA got rid of their nukes long ago. God only knows what might happen if they still had them now.

Their riot midget is an absolute chad compared to our wheelchair riot midget.
