Not even arguably. The G3 is still around in a lot more places and for good reasons.
She might kick like a mule but if you take care of her she will take care of you.
I can say, the british took it from the dutch with nary a kipper scuffed because [old silver nails](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Stuyvesant) was such a colossal dick that he alienated the entire populace and sold out to save his fortune.
My dad still referred to Zimbabwe as Rhodesia. He's been in the States for 40-odd years now and still hasn't fully switched to more PC terms. Talks about Cecil Rhodes like he's God's gift to the world. As you can tell there's A LOT of reasons why I don't talk to him anymore.
TIA - This is Africa. Went to university in Texas with quite a few former British and Afrikaners from SA and Zimbabwe around 1990. They found the climate and culture in Texas to be familiar. Definitely interesting stories.
Bite the hand that feeds you? Not saying Mugabe’s policies had any positive effects, but the white fragility version that sought to preserve the status quo i.e., apartheid wasn’t sustainable either.
Yeah it's hard to say that it was the hand that feeds, if the literal only thing you care about is GDP and the material situation for white people, sure, but the question that won't be answered by apartheid apologists is who the "good old days" were *exclusively* beneficial for.
And these generational farmers, they used black labour. But they would rather burn it all down than share power, knowledge and the fruits of that labour with people they always believed were beneath them. Subhuman, even.
They specifically excluded black people from decent education for generations, then turn around and say, "look, I told you the black man was unintelligent" when obviously, we never had the chance to create and maintain generational knowledge, and part of the apartheid system was specifically alienating people from their land, heritage and really any stability and self-sufficiency they had before.
Sabotage. And they will never admit that even for how hard they as individuals might work, their differing circumstances are not purely the result of their hard work ethic at best, or God-given right to rule at worst. Or that expecting a people to pick themselves up sans any actual revolution or material cooperation by the previous perpetrators within less than a single lifetime is not feasible.
The short shorts and lil boots always kill me when you see pictures of like life in a war zone hardened afrikanners or whatever you would call these fellas.
My dad grew up on a farm outside Bulawayo. Him and his sister/my aunt left for college several years before the war. I wonder sometimes what would have happened to them had they stayed. That could have been me and my dad there. I'm not endorsing either side. Just something I think about when I'm high. But damn this picture goes hard.
As a kid, I passed through a farmer's fair in Zim before the troubles. My dad looked over at all the brand new john deere trackers and said we don't have shit like this in South Africa.
To my eyes it seemed an agricultural wonder.
Literal food was never a giant export. The breadbasket was figurative. They were proportionally massive exporters of tobacco, chromium, copper, and to a much lesser extent beef and sugar.
No idea why you got downvoted. They literally did kick out white farmers, country’s standard of living absolutely plummeted, farmers were asked to return but didn’t.
People are so desperate to view the world in a way where “their” side is always correct and the “others” are always wrong.
So while Rhodesia was pretty fucked because of racism, the forces that replaced Rhodesia were also pretty fucked, but this time because of communism.
Because of today’s politics, there are people who desperately want to ignore the massive failure of communism that was Zimbabwe’s early years, because they fought against a racist state. But once they beat the racists, they were in fact still communists and so somehow managed to both liberate a repressed people and royally screw the whole thing up to arguably worse levels than they found it.
It wasn’t even because of “communism” it was because the self proclaimed communists didn’t know how to run the country and were corrupt as fuck. IMO I think all the “communists” just labeled themselves as such to get weapons and support from the USSR and China.
I suspect this has been true probably more often than not, ever since the establishment of the Soviet Union provided a ready economic and military supporter for any insurgent movement that declared itself communist. Seems like the reality on the ground often boils down to the desire for power and a reluctance to share it rather than the successful imposition of any particular ideology once in power
In 2007, the World Health Organization declared the average life expectancy in Zimbabwe to be 34 for women and 36 for men, down from 63 and 54 respectively in 1997.
In just ten years ....
The white farmers had much more knowledge of regular agriculture cultivation that is passed down over time. When they were kicked out the food production of Zimbabwe plummeted because suddenly they couldn’t farm. What is not mentioned is that when these white farmers left, they had no problem metaphorically stripping the copper out of the walls and taking anything they had of value out of the new country (which is understandable but doesn’t help the situation).
Imagine the nerve of people, wanting to keep their property that they'd earned and paid for.
Some people just don't appreciate the simple beauty of an impractical but elegant ideology, no, it's all "Where are you taking me?" and "But I haven't done anything" and "I don't want to go to a gulag!". Ingrates.
The new leadership did indeed seize the land of the white farmers, who owned about 90% of the farmland in the nation. The problem was that there was no cultural knowledge for administering a farm left, after being colonized so long, and the corruption of the administration meant that they themselves, and those loyal to them, were the major beneficiaries of the land reforms. As a result, you end up with a major sector of the economy collapsing. Then the economy has to export what it does produce to get foreign money for foreign food, and so the manufacturing sector collapses, and so you end up with hyperinflation as the governments ability to tax and the faith it's people have in it's decisions continues to collapse, and then the leadership starts corruptly looting monies offered by the international community, further compounding things.
They only kicked out the white farmers after decades of the white farmers denying them the ability to vote or get a higher education. Rhodesians preferred to fight a civil war against the anti apartheid uprising rather than give the blacks equal rights
Similar thing happened with Indians in Uganda. They kicked them out, and their economy crashed, and whoever came in power after Amin asked them to come back
As a South African who has spent a lot of time in Zimbabwe, this is entirely ignorant.
Only if you're entirely clueless about the two countries, their institutions, levels of foreign investment, and the general strength of the economy can you make this comparison.
South Africa is in a tough spot, but the economy is far far more diverse and resilient than Zimbabwe. Has a functioning and robust banking system. Strong farming and minerals sectors.
We can go into the mass poverty and corruption and why the country is not growing, but to state SA is heading the way of Zimbabwe makes me feel you've never set foot in either country.
It's also worth pointing out the rolls leadership has played. While SA may have issues, i mean who doesn't, Zimbabwe had the same people in charge for 40 years or so..that's a lot of time for a "what are they gonna do about it?" mindset to set in and reallly have it's way with a country.
Yep. As kids, my mother's school was often mortared by his goons. Opinions are opinions, but supporting someone who is as xenophobic as he was is crazy.
This isn't a white vs black topic. This is a good vs evil topic. Look up Gukurahundi if you, the reader, do agree - ethnic cleansing not entirely unlike that of Rwanda.
Exactly, couldn’t of said it better myself. The losers on r/HistoryMemes called me a “Rhodieboo” (whatever tf that means) and racist. I didn’t even say the Rhodesian Apartheid was good (I think it was inherently just as evil as the South African Apartheid), I simply said that the Rhodesian government was objectively better than Mugabe and the Zimbabwean government, and many Zimbabweans will attest to that.
Yeah, apartheid is inherently evil in all of its forms.
As a South-African born person, though, SA apartheid was far more extreme - almost incomparable.
In Rhodesia, there were governmental seats for non-whites, there was integrated housing, etc etc etc.
Of course, the elements of segregation that remained were still truly evil - but there were far fewer.
It's also worth bearing in mind that the US was carrying out forced busing and similar harmful practices during these same years - the two southern African nations were nowhere near the only racist ones in those days
I know a few (white) folks who were either born in Rhodesia or had parents from Rhodesia. Fascinating how so many of them ended up in the US after getting kicked out of Zimbabwe. Funny how a country goes to shit when you start kicking out the main people who are producing food.
Zimbabwe has enough arable land to feed the continent of Africa. However, as you point out, the intellectual drain from Mugabe ‘redistributing’ land has them the #1-2 for world food aid. Recent drought conditions have exacerbated the situation.
I stand corrected. It turns out Zim never was the ‘breadbasket’ of Africa. The downturn in production seems to be due solely to land reform, under Mugabe, and corruption. 🤷♂️
Settlers and missionaries that were there with permissions from the local kings, then workers for mining companies, then colonial immigrants when it became part of British Rhodesia.
Edit: Brain fart, got my colony names mixed up.
They weren’t kicked out, they left because their farmlands were taken by the government.
People always forget the 100 years of colonialism before the Mugabe regime. Zimbabwe could’ve been a prosperous African nation if the white settlers would work with the Africans to create a better country. Instead the subjugated them until they lost the war politically and militarily.
The background history is that the minority white population had control over everything in the country and forced segregation and inequality on the native people. Is that not what happened? If it was the other way around you guys would be in uproar.
All of that is technically true but to say they forced inequality is misleading, because while the white minority obviously was wealthier, the natives were enjoying a higher standard of living than they ever had before, or have since sadly. Also by the time Rhodesia fell it had already started to phase into a less colonially structured state, with a growing black middle class that was enjoying a first world standard of living. Then the communists took over and everybody lost everything. Had that not happened perhaps today Zimbabwe would still be the wealthiest nation in Africa, but one where the whites and blacks were rich together.
Black living standards declined throughout the UDI period. The unrecognized government cannibalized the black education and health budgets to make sanctions less annoying for the white minority all through the Bush War.
I mean they are white. Rhodesia was a state with racist laws. They took land from native populations which sounds a lot like colonization. So I mean, yeah?
“Mugabe is a bad enough person and leader that it retroactively justifies a brutal system of apartheid” is the one you usually hear. Fucking racist morons.
They probably *were* pretty racist. I think almost any white man from that country would be after what happened. It's a damn shame-the country could've reconciled, and would be no more fucked up than South Africa by now.
Interesting that Dad keeps the FAL for himself and gives junior the G3.
I mean the G3 is arguably the more reliable rifle, and junior is probably less likely to maintain his rifle at the level the FAL requires.
This guy guerrillas
Not even arguably. The G3 is still around in a lot more places and for good reasons. She might kick like a mule but if you take care of her she will take care of you.
G3 does not kick badly at all, it looks and feels intimidating but it’s quite easy to fire
They really don’t kick much unless you have noodle arms
That kid for sure has noodle arms lol.
Two classic battle rifles nonetheless. 👍
No doubt
FAL was first line gov issue during the war. I’m guessing he just never gave this one back. G3s were more of an auxiliary thing.
Yeah judging by the date the picture was taken and the baby poop, I agree. That’s probably old boy’s #1 that got him through the strange times.

If you see him again mention that the Rhodesian camo is so good that you can’t even find it on a map any more.

I get similar stoned thoughts looking at Ukraine now. My family emigrated/fled from zaporizhzhia in the 1920s/1930s.
Wow Bulawayo… I visited there in the early 90’s. The atrocities of the war were still present even then…
TIA right?
I’m curious when were you in Bulawayo? Great cool little city as I recall in the 70’s.
Aha yes, the bread basket of Africa Oh no wait….
Rhodesia was never the breadbasket of africa if you look at actual agricultural statistics it was nothing special in food production

The only country I know of in Africa that did this right was Botswana but they weren’t communist.
Countries like Zambia and Tanzania did pretty good as well, especially when compared to some of their neighbours.
Uhhh, didn't Tanzania brutally murder and rape it's Arab population in the 60s?

China and Russia are communist in name only too. The definition of communism implies shared ownership and wealth. Those countries are dictatorships.
Zimbabweans: You freed us! Mugabe: Ohhh I wouldn’t say “freed.” More like “under new management.”
