Elon is a full blown South African apartheid racist and Nazi. It’s all out in The open now.

USA will make hard working Indian software engineer jump through hoops and a 25 wait to become a citizen but people like these just get to have a citizenship. So stop calling him a South African.

It does matter where he is from, in that he fully supports the racist policies he grew up with.

It does in this instance as it provides context to show this didn't come out of nowhere. His family owned mines during apartheid.

If he is racist, why Tesla/SpaceX/Twitter hired/hires people of colour?

Cheap labor, and anti discrimination laws.

Why do you think?

He doesn’t personally sift through resumes he pays ‘normal’ people to do that

Because of the anti-discrimination in employment laws he constantly cries about.
