Summary
The internet was in uproar on Thursday after a new Reuters report disclosed that the U.S. has planned to admit 4,500 applications from white South Africans as refugees.

Let’s call this what it is: ethnonationalism," user Mina, who self-described as "an American woman with wide-ranging interests," wrote one user on Bluesky. "Gotta import new racists as the older ones in America have been dying off," user S.T. Jones wrote on Bluesky."The Trump/MAGA vision: Make the US the Hungary of North America, a nation of, for and by white Christian male racists," systems analyst Ric Steinberger wrote on Bluesky."[turns over ‘days since I muttered a bigoted remark about white South Africans’ counter back to zero]," Ryan Cooper, senior editor at The American Prospect, wrote on Bluesky. "We need to shut it down until someone figures out just what the hell is going on," artist Luke Russell joked on Bluesky.Economist Tony Yates reacted, "US policy =Black refugees bad; white refugees good."Labor economist Aaron Sojourner wrote on Bluesky, "POTUS loves exactly one kind of import."
