But those folks chose to come to the US for specific opportunities -- often educational or career/financial -- and to an extent culture shock like this is normal for anyone voluntarily emigrating. And it's mostly wealthy people who have those options. Being a refugee is kind of a different thing.

This is in countries with extreme inequality such that there is an underclass that leads a standard of living far below the middle class. Which is a lot of countries. In Southern California you still find people looking for cleaning at less than minimum wage (b/c of our undocumented population).

Hiring the equivalent of one full time worker — at a living wage — used to define the term middle class in the US. It was considered a societal responsibility to share your largess. Think, Leave it to Beaver or even The Brady Bunch. The DIY movement was a scam to keep wages, esp women’s, low.

It must have been horrible being oppressed by the servants. Having to pay them can be so upsetting!

I went to secondary school with a south african guy. He loved to trot out the same story about a guy robbing his sister "so, like, it's kinda understandable why she's racist, yknow? right..?" to see who'd agree with him and then befriend those guys

in the article, kleinhaus and his family were settled in Buffalo by the refugee program, but he wanted to live and work on a farm, not in an urban area, so he voluntarily left the program and made contact with a farmer in SD. This farmer flew them out and gave them a house

I'm sitting on my hands here because I'm sure there are contexts where a very wealthy person might legitimately become a refugee. But also.... sounds like these Afrikaners had it pretty good back home, eh?

With the exception of complete unquestioned dominance of South African politics, which of course is tantamount to being murdered.

They gave black people the government but kept all the land and money. It's not enough, I guess.

they also didn't "give" them the government. they just enacted equal voting rights and r a small minority in South Africa population

Their government back home is even willing to pay them money to get back the land that THEY stole.

There are definitely circumstances where refugees had money, but generally by becoming a refugee you lose your wealth.

Right, and in those cases those folks likely complained about things like not having servants or having to live in South Dakota instead of Havana or Vienna or the like. Which is kind of a bad look? But at least those people understood that they fled for their lives. Discomforts aside.

They exploited those servants so mercilessly that they started to be paranoid about the slaves... er... servants rising up some day and killing them. Just like in the antebellum south.

I mean, I also would like to wake up in the morning and magically have a kitchen woman plate me some eggs. Sadly, this process involves me going into the kitchen, cooking the eggs, plating them and handing them to myself. When AI can make eggs, I'll pay $15/mo for it. (no I won't) Sadness.😒🥺😭
