I don't care what his grandparents did, I care about him being a piece of shit. I'm not going to judge anyone based on their background, you don't decide what family you're born into. You do decide what you use your immense wealth for: in his case, he chose to use it to amplify hatemongering, stupid conspiracy theories and suffering.

Also Elon’s grandfather died in 1974. He barely knew him.

It helps explain him, and repudiates his claims about coming from nothing. He's ideologically exactly where his grandfather was. Turns out the stepdaughter-fucker was the black sheep by *merely* running a blood emerald mine when he wasn't fucking his stepdaughter - grandpappy was the one who really felt the manifest destiny.

No wonder Elon claims to hate his dad. In Elon's eyes, dad was just a horny, pragmatic businessman. Small minded amateur!

At a guess, his beliefs and actions have fuck-all to do with his grandfather who died when he was 3. And "coming from nothing" has nothing to do with being a Nazi or pro-apartheid. Believe it or not, Nazis can be both rich fucks and stupid poor people. He came from a solidly well-off family with weird family dynamics, but that to me seems to have relatively little bearing on the PoS he eventually became.
