Image of dead 'white farmers' came from Reuters footage in Congo

One of the enduring lessons people, at least in Westernish countries, will take from this administration is that you can say literally anything and the media will dutifully give it credence without second thought or any semblance of fact checking in their desperate, ravenous desire for clicks and engagement (and their general inability to even spell “truth”). And, further, that if you say and do enough things, you’ll already be ten lies past the one they’re trying to call you on, and the majority of people are too dumb to keep track or care.

It’s incredible how completely “journalists” have failed everyone.

Must be the tremendous new leadership in the US Intelligence aparatus.

We're mere weeks away from "these poor moisture farmers living near the village of Mos Eisley, South Africa were brutally killed by the mayocide."

There's so much misinformation around this topic: "For example there has only ever been one incident of a boy being drowned in boiling water on a smallholding, but now people talk about it as if it's a common occurrence in farm attacks." - https://www.bustingthemyth.com/post/q-how-often-are-children...

Only one such incident!

And even the UK government has bought into this propaganda - South Africa is missing from their list of safe states [1]. In fact, even Turkey, with a homicide rate 14-times lower than South Africa [2], isn't on that list!
