Demographics really are destiny as this interesting video from Zoomer Historian demonstrates….
The situation here in the U.S. is of course quite a bit different in a lot of ways. In Rhodesia the White population was always a very small minority while in the U.S. Whites were once the dominant race to the point that “American” meant “White”. There is another significant factor in that our African descended residents are already badly outnumbered not just by Whites but also by mestizos, creating a three-way racial competitive conflict
What is very similar? It is a cliche of sorts but it is also true:
You get more of what you subsidize
That doesn’t just mean cash. For example the West has been subsidizing Africa for decades in the form of food, medical aid and attempts to stave off the worst of Africans killing each other as ZH points out in the video. What has that resulted in?
Millions of new Africans who are even more dependent on aid.
Back in those days at least you could have an honest conversation about some of these topics but clearly even though White Rhodesians knew they needed to get the black population under control, they were loathe to do what needed to be done and it ended up leading to the fall of Rhodesia and the transformation of the bread-basket of Africa into yet another African run basket-case.
There was talk here in my lifetime about requiring single women on welfare to be on birth control, the idea being that if you already can’t take care of yourself without government assistance it was irresponsible and immoral to add additional mouths to be fed to the government dole. That of course never went anywhere as the proposal, even though it would have applied across races, was seen as somehow degrading to black women who have an inalienable right to have as many children as they want and to likewise expect Whites to house, feed and “educate” as many children as Shaniqua can crank out.
What I found very interesting is that Zoomer Historian was pointing out that the Whites providing welfare payments to blacks meant many of those African blacks were content to live at a subsistence level as long as someone else paid for it.
The 2G fruit doesn’t fall far from the Sub-Saharan African tree.
Another lesson is that no matter what Whites did for Africans, they managed to both screw it up and be completely ungrateful for it. Take for example the Kariba Dam. Built by the British colonial government from 1955-1960, the dam straddles “Zimbabwe” and Zambia on the Zambezi river. It is 420 feet tall and 1,900 feet wide. Quite an engineering marvel.
It still provides electricity to the tune of 6,400 gigawatt-hours annually split between Zimbabwe and Zambia. I don’t know how much of Zimbabwe’s total electric output that represents but I assume it is a significant percentage. Like most infrastructure in former colonies, it was built by the colonizers and barely maintained by the Africans under “self-rule”. Are Africans grateful for the infrastructure built by White colonizers that allows them to live better lives than would have otherwise had they never been colonized? Of course not. Just like American blacks endlessly pissing and moaning about slavery when their ancestors being brought to America as slaves in the 18th and 19th centuries means they have life expectancies double or triple what they would have had in Africa.
What is also common is that China is now manipulating these countries into accepting “aid” from China that is going to make colonial times look like a Sunday picnic in comparison. The Chinese don’t have any of that pesky White altruism to worry about.
Looking back to Zimbabwe and what has become of the country. Most of the Whites have fled the nation:
The white population dropped from a peak of around 278,000, or 4.3% of the population, in 1975. The 2022 census lists the total white population at 24,888 (roughly 0.16% of the population), one-eleventh of its peak.
Meanwhile the overall population of now 99.6% black African Zimbabwe exploded.
Expanding from a population of 2,746,396 in 1950, Zimbabwe’s population has rapidly increased. Based on the 2022 revision of the World Population Prospects, the population of Zimbabwe was estimated by the United Nations at 15,993,524 in 2021.
The results are completely predictable. Once a moderately thriving nation called Rhodesia, Zimbabwe is now an utter disaster. Per capita GDP is a whopping $2,005, ranking it near the bottom with the rest of the African nations, just below Congo (not the “democratic republic” of Congo). You might notice the precipitous drop-off at around the same time Zimbabwe achieved “independence” in 1965…
I would be remiss if I didn’t point out the utter calamity of Zimbabwe’s land theft from White farmers that turned out as you would expect: As country heads for disaster, Zimbabwe calls for return of white farmers.
At the start of the land seizure policy in 2000, Zimbabwe had 4,500 white farmers, now about 400 remain on portions of their farms. Mozambique, Zambia and Nigeria have welcomed some of the skilled white farmers.
The economy has also shrunk by more than 40% in five years.
Yesterday Mr Mugabe did not comment on Mr Gono’s proposal.
During the election campaign in March, the president said he was disappointed that only 44% of the land seized from whites was being cultivated and that the remainder was lying fallow.
He has also had to admit that Zimbabwe, once called “the breadbasket of Africa”, needs to import food to feed its population. For months he had boasted that the country had a bumper harvest and would “choke” if it was forced to take international food aid.
But Mr Mugabe said this week that his government would welcome food from the UN, as long as it came without any political conditions.
Well who could have predicted that? More than half of the land stolen from Whites is not even being farmed.
It will definitely work out better when they try it in South Africa.
Whites will never get to the level of Rhodesia (less than 5% at the peak) in America as the United States will never last long enough to hit that level. That is what qualifies as looking on the bright side in this slow rolling disaster.
I am not sure what the critical level is where the parasitical non-Whites overwhelm the ability of the shrinking percentage of Whites to subsidize them and keep the lights on. Maybe when the national demographic mix reaches 40% White? Things are teetering already and not to sound like a boomer but thanks to decades of dysgenic breeding by Whites, the next generation isn’t looking like they are up to shouldering more of the load and who can blame them when they were born into the ass-end of what was once a great nation?
When it happens, and it is “when” not “if” the whole thing goes tits up, it will be a calamity like few ever seen in human history. Over 330 million American citizens plus 40 million or so illegals suddenly trying to make things work when the lights start to flicker, the EBT cards stop working and truckers stop delivering fuel to urban areas? That ought to be a delight. Add in the three competing racial groups and half a billion firearms and it will be spicy times for all.
Rhodesia was a pretty small, unimportant country with just a few million people when it became the posterchild for the futility of black self-governance. Despite the obvious evidence that some groups simply are incapable of self-governance in anything approximating a functional society, Whites keep trying to make it happen. It won’t happen, it will never happen, and all attempting it has accomplished is the current disaster we call Africa and the looming disasters in Western Europe, Canada and the U.S.
The warnings are plain to see but too many of our people refuse to open their eyes.
Couple thoughts. Rhodesia is the size (more or less) of Texas. it’s not small. Also Rhodesia didn’t fall until 1980, they told the Brits to suck it in 1965.
Without the Soviets pushing against Rhodesia and South Africa, neither ever falls. Given the gold and diamond production of South Africa, and their association with the bankers, I’m sure the usual small hatted people were involved too.
The really interesting thing about Rhodesia is that it wasn’t even founded until the 1890’s. So in 50 to 70 years, whites built a thriving and productive country feeding all of Africa where the africans had done nothing with it in thousands of years. And was then destroyed in less time than that. Imagine what they could have done without the african tax.
Fascinating book about South Africa (and a little about the founding of Rhodesia): Diamonds, Golds and War: The story of South Africa. https://www.amazon.com/dp/1586484737?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title
I was thinking more in terms of population, that sounds like an interesting book I will check out.
Make starvation great again!
It might be the most humane thing to do

It will be a mighty struggle as They are terrified of Whites anywhere having self-determination.
Other lessons: communism is the political name for White genocide-that is why it was designed, what it does and what it is for. Also, it always looks cool to carry a FAL. And that the entirely of the leadership of Western Civilization was complicit in the fate of the White Rhodesians and the current state of affairs in Zimbabro.
Yep…… Jimmy Carter, Andrew You g, Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, Andrew Young (trying to correct above), etc
The FAL was without peer as a cool battle rifle
Kevin Myers predicted this boom in 2014. If you have not read it before, here it is again. It’s short.

yeah, that nails it. thanks for posting the link.
I’ve seen it before but it is worthwhile reading again
Gee Arthur, you’ve been channeling my pessimism/black pilling. Still scanning various sites and sending much of what I find to my friend stuck back in DFW, and nowhere online to properly vent my spleen. Black fire chief in Austin refuses to send special operation teams to Kerrville during flood. Houston negress rants raycissss because Kerrville Christian camp is White (yes, I too wish it had been black kids who died instead). The antifa contingent who attacked the ICE facility in Texas included three troons and some sort of jungle Asian named Benjamin Hanil Song, a “Dallas man.” A White South African woman is assaulted and murdered by a Mexican on a yacht. A nogger in Florida raped an 11 year old, and all I can do is pray it wasn’t a White child.
Yes, I am so ‘fatigued’ and hate filled that as long as it is not a White who is abused or harmed, I just don’t give a f**k. And I don’t even dream of killing all the nonwhites, but rather sending them all back in time (unable to breed, speak English, or in any way change history) a few hundred years before Whites discovered their native lands. Let the han, the pajeet, the indios, the noggers of today be sent back and scattered throughout pre-White history, always remembering how they once lived amongst modern Whites yet forced to live in their natural shithole condition until they die.
And at the same time I know there truly is nothing to be done at this late a stage. Almost no one online is truly cognizant of the real numbers and what they portend. I saw yesterday that those over 65 (most of them White) outnumber children (most of them yellow/brown/black) in 11 states. We are a dying nation in a dying world.
That is one of the most black pill comments I’ve ever read. So much truth! Agreed.
I’m too old to make much difference. I don’t speak to most of my family. I’m not really sad about it. Mostly stupid crap. They really don’t like me saying nigger, pavement ape, obsolete farm equipment etc.
They don’t want to hear anything bad about Israel. They say the USS Liberty was an unfortunate accident. I ask them an hour and a half “accident”? With napalm? They change the subject.
My best advice is fire a weapon.
It is impractical to be anything but black pilled about the near term but I try to stay optimistic for the future.
I am so sick of “minorities”. I am tired of their whining, their demands, and their constant moaning about ….Unfairness. I rebel as much as I can; shop white, live white, stay true to myself and my beliefs. We need our own Homeland and it needs to start sea to shining sea.
All of those dams built in Africa, the formerly lush farms, and the plentitude of food for the population disappears as soon as whites leave. I would cheer if Trump offered every last White African the ability to leave and be prosperous. Let the 2G wallow in their own making.
CWII is going to make the first one look like a Sunday afternoon in the park.

“We Jews, we are the destroyers and will remain the destroyers. Nothing you can do will meet our demands and needs. We will forever destroy because we want a world of our own.”
Maurice Samuel
You ain’t lyin’.
I use that Maurice Samuel quote too, but it took me a while to realize it wasn’t Samuel being (uncharacteristically) self-aware and honest. In context, he was essentially saying that gentiles are filthy and intolerable no matter how hard they suck up to God’s People. The “nothing you can do will meet our demands” part isn’t commentary on how Jews are at fault for being too grasping and demanding. It’s saying that the revolting, barely-above-an-animal goy can NEVER rise to a level that’s good enough for Jews.
As Big Ruckus (I think) recently pointed out, this attitude and behavior is basically cluster B type personality disorder if it were an individual. Here we have an entire culture that’s narcissistic, histrionic, and also engages in borderline personality disorder-type (BPD) theatrics and acting out. Some of y’all may have had the misfortune to have a narcissist or BPD girlfriend in your past (gods help you if they’re in your present) and you know how miserable that is. Here we have an entire people like that. (No, not each individual, duh, but overall.)
That cultural cluster B shit played, and continues to play, a huge role in pretty much every sociopolitical problem dragging down the West. Clearly in the fall of South Africa (yeah, fuckin’ Yossel Mashel “Joe” Slovo, man), but also in the massive and misplaced aid to the rest of Africa that created the overpopulation and the subsequent “migrant” problems. It’s a weird mix of deliberate, venomous malice (primarily anti-white, but against everyone ultimately), and genuine do-gooderism. Plus sanctimonious hypocrisy. Lots of hypocrisy.
PS I say “culture” but I’m starting to wonder if there isn’t a real genetic component predisposing this sort of pathological behavior.
I have watched videos of cities in Angola and Mozambique during Portuguese rule. They were just like Lisbon and Porto in Portugal.
I remember there was a book of a black american journalist who went to africa, saw it and then realized that his forefather getting sold as slave was the best thing that happened to his family. In Africa the blacks kill and enslave each other. So, when this journalist returned to America he approached the next white, said “Thank you.”
And to 3g4me, I agree with you. Sent all non-whites (not only blacks, but arabs, chinese, the (((hat-wearers))), etc ) so 140 million years into the past to the dinosaurs. There they can live out their anti-white hatred to their hearts content. I wouldnt care less.
And I dont think that they would build anything worthwhile.
On the other hand. Send white people back and knowing that extinction is on the table, I would bet all I own that before 300 years have passed, we will be in space and colonizing the planets in the solar system and beginning research into FTL.
Take the average American Negros, put them back in whatever region of Africa their ancestors were in when they were captured by other Africans (and sold into slavery to the highest bidder in the auctions). I’d bet 90% of them wouldn’t live for another month or two.
You say that like it’s a bad thing?
And they knew it was coming. Great video, Arthur. Subscribed to this channel now.
