"Heartbreaking and infuriating. What Bianca Coster has endured is far more than impersonation. Its a years-long campaign of vile psychological torture. The fact that her tormentors have taken pleasure in her pain makes it all the more disturbing. There are serious legal ramifications for this. This is fraudulent impersonation. It is disinformation. It is online harassment. It is technology-facilitated GBV. And it has had devastating real-world consequences.

"Goodbye and good luck to all who will claim refugee status. Its your life do with it as you please. In terms of farmers I highly doubt it will be large commercial farmers that feed the nation and export. We will be just fine. And farming is not the exclusive forte of Afrikaners as mentioned in the EO. Nor will all leave. In any case for large tracts of land once bought will result in a) giving title to portions to farm workers who have lived on farms for generations with no land security b) building schools and other facilities c) subsidise businesses and factories to set up shop in the area"
