Elon Musk Calls Out South African President After Chilling Racism At Rally - 'Kill The Boer (White), Kill The White Farmer'

In a chilling display of racist rhetoric, a South African member of parliament Julius Malema, leader of The Economic Freedom Fighters party, led some 90,000 in chanting the “dubul’ibhunu," a protest song dating back to apartheid which features the prominent lyrics, "Shoot to Kill, Kill the Boer (White South African/Afrikaner), kill the farmer."

Elon Musk, the South African-born owner of X App (formerly Twitter) responded by calling out South African Presiden Cyril Ramaphosa for his silence.

Conservative commentator Benny Johnson shared video from Truthseeker, writing, "Shocking video shows South Africa’s black party singing “kill the Boer (Whites), kill the White farmer” This is all downstream from the rotten secular religion of wokeness and CRT plaguing America today. You have been warned."

Under South African speech laws, which differ significantly from America's First Amendment concept of free speech, the song is illegal to perform, having been declared 'hate speech.' According to Sunday World citing AfriForum, "a civil rights organization that mobilizes Afrikaners, Afrikaans-speaking people and other minority groups in South Africa." A legal challenge is underway with a judge recently ruling that the song is protected speech

Musk wrote in a post on Monday, "They are openly pushing for genocide of white people in South Africa. @CyrilRamaphosa, why do you say nothing?"

Filmmaker Lauren Southern replied to Musk, urging him to watch her 2018 documentary FARMLANDS which reports in heartwrenching detail the ongoing and seemingly state-sanctioned violence against the so-called "Boers," the descendants of White South African settlers that ruled the nation for over a century.

X App user 'End Wokeness' tweeted two stories from Sunday World "24 hours apart." First, Malema led the gruesome chant and then a story describing the brutal robbery and murder of 79-year-old South African white/Afrikaner farmer Theo Frederick Bekker at his home in Balfour, Mpumalanga, just over an hour from FNB Stadium in Johannesburg where Melema spoke.

Bekker was murdered through blunt-force trauma to the head, according to police. He was reported dead on the scene and his wife was also badly injured. The four suspected murderers stole Bekker's car, three firearms, and an undisclosed amount of cash before ditching the car and eventually being arrested.

Malema has retweeted multiple posts defending the singing of the song as either anachronistic, symbolic or not to be taken literally, but it would appear that many in South Africa are doing quite the opposite. 

Leader of the Freedom Front Plus party Pieter Groenewald posted an image to X app on Monday of him "Laying criminal charges with the Police against Malema for his 'Kill the Boer …' and 'shoot to kill' utterances the weekend."

According to SAPeople, The 'Democratic Alliance,' the official opposition party to the ruling African National Congress party, stated through Noko Masipa, Shadow Minister of Agriculture, “Considering these alarming incidents and in line with our Congress Resolution that was adopted with a resounding majority, the Democratic Alliance will write to the President to request the establishment of a Commission of Inquiry into farm murders. This independent inquiry will allow for a thorough investigation into the underlying causes of these crimes and provide recommendations for comprehensive measures to safeguard our farming communities.”
