Man amazed by discovery of Afrikaner refugee

In a TikTok video by @thabo_baloyi, he shared the information regarding an Afrikaner refugee. He shared that a young lady took to social media and shared that she realised that a family member who allegedly mistreated her made it to America as a refugee. In the video, the creator pointed out that the man was accused of not being an Afrikaner and claimed that he was attacked on a farm 15 times. Thabo also highlighted that the man admitted that he does not speak Afrikaans, yet still claims to be an Afrikaner.

SA laughs at America over Afrikaner refugees

Many people commented on the video, saying they believed the US government fell for a scam. People referenced the executive order Donald Trump signed to protect Afrikaner farmers from alleged violence and discrimination against them by the government. Social media has been rife with rumours that the 49 Afrikaners who made it to America as refugees are not farmers. Netizens speculated that more refugees may have gotten refugee status despite not being Afrikaner farmers.

"Unfortunately, if you know us South Africans, you know that many of us will also just take a chance to get out. can guarantee most of them haven't been involved in farm attacks and just want to get out."

Stepdad clears the air after daughter's accusation

He posted a detailed response on his TikTok @weatherman_za, explaining his background, intentions and family history.

Social media users flooded the comment section, discussing the man's clip. Many were keen to know where his farm was, questioning how much danger he was in. Some believed he had the right to move and supported his take. Others, however, thought the timing and story felt off, especially given his financial background.
