The list seems like propaganda so forget that
reality is the government so far has named two farms
Two game farms in Limpopo " GAME FARMS "
Both are known as "luxury hunting farms"
These are the places where cunts like Trump Jnr go to hunt African animals. The land is being rezoned national parks.
Even if the Government did close down 150 farms its still less than 1% and I'd bet there's a fucking lot more of South African farms that were claimed at the end of a gun than any due process.
White man scare mongering propaganda so far by alt right gun nuts...
Show me a when a real farmer loses his land..

Dude, you know absolutely nothing about this and your sycophants around you have been feeding you whatever you are most likely to respond positively to.
Game farms are on that list because they are lucrative and don't need as many skills as traditional farming. Ramaphosa himself bids and sells game (like bidding $2millionUSD on a buffalo and selling 3 impala for $2.6millionUSD). And big game hunters are essential for conservation, so don't even try that angle!
As a South African who has had family land expropriated in South Africa, I can absolutely tell you this is a real and genuine process that is happening. Previously there was the willing seller program and historic land claims etc. They would audit land value and then pay a percentage of that, but it was a forced purchase. So even though they paid way below actual value and also didn't take many of the assets into account, the "seller" didn't really have a choice.
Non-saffas don't seem to understand the level of cronyism and nepotism that is rife in South Africa.
Here is just one of a multitude of examples.

I mean, even public services are being stripped bare by the corruption that is rife and seemingly endemic. Funds are siphoned off in their billions, and little to no service delivery happens. You're probably thinking there is just some skimming off the top... but no. Entire funding amounts are getting stolen! So often there is literally NOTHING to show for billions of rands of public money.
That list of initial farms leaked had the game farms as the top 2 on that list. And these are just test cases on that list, I'll hasten to add. Once the constitution is amended, each province will go crazy with land expropriation. Oh, and it's not just farmland... it's ANY land, which includes residential homes and commercial land.
The constitutional amendment will stipulate private land and not white owned land, which is an important thing to note. This will mean that at a later stage, any dissidents who own land could get their property taken, with any plausible excuse fabricated to make it "in the people's interest"
I don't really know why Trump would be bothered with these major South African issues, but I welcome any and all help that could help bring the country back on track.
