#AllLivesMatter – white lives too. By Mark Powell.

Cyril Ramaphosa, the new President of South Africa, has decided that it’s time to take out the trash. The poor white trash that is. At least, that’s what these innocent white farmers will become when Ramaphosa fulfils his promise to forcefully re-appropriate the land without compensation, and then redistribute it to black South Africans. …

As usual, Miranda Devine has put her finger on the central issue. And that is, why is it that only some lives matter? More to the point, why are black lives today viewed as being more valuable than white ones? As Devine comments:

If it was compassionate to admit an extra 12,000 Syrians on the strength of a single photo of a dead toddler on a beach, surely the pictures and stories of bashed and terrified South Africans published this week by Paul Toohey and Gary Ramage mean something.

How naïve. Syrian immigrants/refugees will vote left in overwhelming proportion. South African white farmers will do the opposite. Calls for diversity in immigration are really just calls for more left voters. Both sides of politics know this and act as if it is true, but will not say it.
