@mayiselk what is your source for the central plank of your theory that South Africa is a big player in the mining of antimony?

Right wing morons playing the victim card leaves me speechless
Max du Preez: "For years, Solidarity and AfriForum have been nagging the US to view Afrikaners as victims, but only with a madman in the White House could this happen. Now we other Afrikaners must step in and show that we are not all like that’."

Uys Krige's poem, "Kreet," followed by an English translation. He was born in 1910 and died in 1987. In this poem, written at the height of apartheid he spits fire at "his" people, the Afrikaner. Kreet Nou moet jy dit weet, wit man Nou moet jy dit weet! Dat ek dié wit lig haat bedags en dat ek snags die swart lig haat, dié lig wyd oor ons albei, wit soos jy of swart soos ek, Omdat jy nie wil hê in die stede en dorpe wat ons bou ek my kop mag oplig in die lig Omdat jy nie wil hê ek mag hier soos ʼn man staan onbeskaamd, bly, sonder vrees, in hierdie lig. Nou moet jy dit weet, wit man! Nou moet jy dit weet! Dat ek dié haat haat en dat ek jou ook haat wat my die haat gegee het soos ʼn wurm in my brein ʼn skerpioen in my hart, ʼn gloeiende kool in my galstene ʼn groen gif in my bloed. Nou moet jy dit weet, wit man! Nou moet jy dit weet! Dat ek jou haat met ʼn haat wat al vaster wortel, al dieper boor tot in die harde been, die safte murg Kan ons nog oor dié dinge praat? Of is dit reeds te laat? Ek stik in hierdie haat, wit man, soos in my eie bloed. Verlos my van dié haat, wit man, wit man, of ek vergaan en jy vergaan. Verlos my.... Verlos... Lament Now you must know this, white man Now you must know! That I hate the white light in the day and I hate the black light at night, the wide light over both of us, white like you or black like me, Because you don't want me in the cities and towns, we are building where I may lift my head in the light Because you don't want me to stand here like a man unashamed, happy, without fear, in this light. Now you must know this, white man! Now you must know this! That I hate this hate and that I also hate you who gave me this hate like a worm in my brain a scorpion in my heart, a glowing coal in my gallbladder a green poison in my blood. Now you must know this, white man! Now you must know! That I hate you with a hate that takes root deeper, that bores deeper into the hard bone, the soft marrow. Can we still talk about these things? Or is it already too late? I'm choking in this hate, white man, like in my own blood. Release me from this hate, white man, white man, or I will perish and you will perish. Release me... Release...

@TyroneMichaelG1 Legacy media like Daily Maverick has consistently exposed corruption in South Africa. "We are the media now" is alt right ideology and part of Elon Musk propaganda. You're welcome to walk the road paved by Musk's disinformation.
