@RolandHarazin [name pseudonymized] [ontology] : It doesn’t bode well, does it?! Approval for Cecil Rhodes and a whiff of the return of Section 28 and a dislike of being alert to social injustice. #RishiSunak #LizTruss #nastyparty #woke [URL redacted]

@WyattAndreottola [name pseudonymized] [ontology] : Let the #woke idiocy behind you. No #Wokeflix and no #GreatReset. Become a citizen of #Rhodesia. The transglobal #nation which never abolished any of the good old morality laws.

Addendum the mention that 'Rhodesia' is a "transglobal nation which never abolished any of the good old morality laws" is meant as an #LiteralMeaningInsinuation, which #LiteralMeaningConnotation.nnotes a type of #PleaNostalgiaRetrospection for a #NarrativeUtopiaHomeland - what #IRLScholarSvetlanaBoym describes as a #PleaNostalgiaRestorative where #TheoryDeclinism.ist impulses are able to imagine a #NarrativeStableMorality of #TheoryRetrospectiveIdentities

Context "Nostalgia for Rhodesia has since grown into a subtle and profitable form of racist messaging, with its own line of terminology, hashtags and merchandise, peddled to military-history fans and firearms enthusiasts by a stew of far-right provocateurs. ... But outside observers of this Rhodesia revival cite a far more disturbing inspiration for it: Dylann Roof, the American white supremacist who killed nine black parishioners in a Charleston, S.C. church in June 2015. Roof, who was sentenced to death last year, had penned an online manifesto, which appeared on a website called The Last Rhodesian, with photographs of himself wearing a jacket with a patch of the green-and-white Rhodesian flag." https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/10/magazine/rhodesia-zimbabwe-white-supremacists.html #IRLWhiteSupremacistDylannRoof #ToponymAfricaSouthernSouthAfrica #IRLHistoricalFigureCecilRhodes #SlurWhiteSupremacy #PoliticsNationalismWhite #MassShooting2015CharlestonChurch

#NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianHenryDyer and #NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianMichaelGoodier "In another video [mp4] appearing to reference a far-right trope, the Reform leader concluded a £78 video: 'I've got to end this by saying 'up the Rhodesia'. Now whether this is the old country or a pub, I don't know, but that's the message.' There are no pubs in England called the Rhodesia. Rhodesia, a white minority-rule state that is now Zimbabwe, has become a common reference point for white nationalists. Dr Robert Topinka, a lecturer in digital media and rhetoric at Birkbeck, University of London, said: 'Rhodesia is a key far-right and white nationalist reference point and has been since the 60s. Rhodesia is shorthand for a beleaguered white minority fighting heroically in a doomed battle to preserve an ethnostate.'" https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/ng-interactive/2026/mar/17/nigel-farage-videos-support-rioter-neonazi-event-far-right-slogans#up-the-rhodesia-and-other-far-right-tropes #OrgClassifPPUKTheBrexitPartyReformUKNigelFarage #PoliticsNationalismEthno

@ChristinHalbrooks [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [17]: (1/8) The Rhodes Must Fall group is a good example of the folly of giving priority to politics over education at university (no, I won’t use the ugly – and unnecessary – word of the moment “prioritise”!)
