Q: There are many people who fit the criteria of fleeing persecution. Afghans for example. But they're being denied refugee status. So why such an exception for the Afrikaners?

TRUMP ADMIN OFFICIAL: One of the criteria is making sure they can be assimilated easily into our country

2. Such casual racism - I guess it's now just de riguer.

6. It's not like these people are hiding...

...they're a white supremacist, Christian Nationalist, fascist administration. The media refuses to call them this, but that's who they are.

7. "The media refuses to call them this..."

At least that shows who THEY are.

3. "Easy assimilation" is blatant bigotry.

And getting very close to the reason why we have an international agreement to accept refugees seeking asylum in the first place.

4. How about black Africans? Many of them speak English

How about black South Africans? literally same country as the white Afrikaners. They should assimilate well. No?

5. What's in a name? Black. African-American. Afrikaner.
