    The South African government has begun the process of seizing land from white farmers.

    Local newspaper City Press reports two game farms in the northern province of Limpopo are the first to be targeted for unilateral seizure after negotiations with the owners to purchase the properties stalled.

    A 2017 government audit found white people owned 72 per cent of private farmland in South Africa. According to the 2011 census, there are about 4.6 million white people in South Africa, accounting for 8.9 per cent of the population.

    Anyway, all land is 'stolen' in a capitalist society. It's no surprise that it's being stolen again, especially since many people from whom it was stolen the last round still live. I'm sure they want it back. Tho I doubt the state will return it to them these decades later.
