Elon Musk Cracks HARD In Agonizing Racism Reveal

Elon Musk finally cracks with unbelievable Twitter comments about the media being racist against white people in defense of Dilbert creator, Scott Adams. John Iadarola and Francesca Fiorentini break it down on The Damage Report.

Read more here:

"Elon Musk blasted the “media” for being racist against “Whites & Asians” in a curious defense of Scott Adams’s flatly racist comments over the weekend.

Adams is the creator of the hugely successful Dilbert comic strip and finds himself in the middle of controversy (again) after an unsettling video in which he said White people should “get the hell away from Black people.” His comments were made in the context of a Rassmussen poll in which 53% of Black respondents said that it was “okay to be White,” while 26% disagreed with the comment and 21% responded that they were “not sure.”

“If nearly half of all blacks are not okay with white people — according to this poll, not according to me, according to this poll — that’s a hate group,” Adams said on his YouTube show on Wednesday. “I don’t want to have anything to do with them. And I would say, based on the current way things are going, the best advice I would give to white people is to get the hell away from black people . . . because there is no fixing this.”"

Says the man who grew up in South Africa where apartheid was the law until 1994.

[Matacron]

When I found out that Musk and his family left South Africa the EXACT MOMENT that apartheid ended, it told me everything I needed to know about them.

Seriously though, these people weren't LITERALLY born yesterday. They were FIGURATIVELY born yesterday.

[Khumzwi]

He's an Afrikaans white person born in South Africa. We still have very racist white people in S.A. who miss the good ol' apartheid days who truly still believe Black people can't govern. They forget that during apartheid only 10% of South Africans were properly governed and had complete access to basic resources while a good majority of the country was ignored and treated or was seen as less than.

[gbprime]

I'm literally not going to be lectured about racism by the silver spoon guy who grew up in South Africa.

[chuckoneill]

I kind of think that declaring "it's OK to be white" is similar to thinking that
heterosexuals need their own pride parade.

Many times I have been shocked in my 60 yo life glimpsing racism. Top three that troubled me:

1. Having a coworker from a southern state claim that blacks in the south are different than the blacks where we worked, WA state. She said I didn't understand - southern blacks are lazy. That was my first exposure to a racist comment and I must have been blind because I was 20 yo.
2. Newly moved to North Carolina with kids and husband on temporary assignment for two years. Shopping for groceries at Piggly Wiggly and turned the corner into the next aisle with my cart. An elderly black lady, halfway down the aisle immediately crammed against the side to give me the aisle. Broke my heart.
3. Back in Seattle area and purchased a fourplex. One family had a young boy, Maurice, about 6 years old. When I found out that he had been struck by a car in the parking area before we owned the property, I had a small play structure built to draw kids away from the parking area. Maurice was telling me how he loved the playground and I reached out and rubbed his arm to say thanks. He exclaimed that I touched him and I asked if that upset him. He said but he's black.

Now I'm a white older female living in a predominantly white area and the tiny exposures to the realities of racism's existence have stuck in my brain. I shudder to think how much more multiplied it would be for someone living in brown or black skin and directed straight at them, not someone like me as a bystander. That's truly trauma.

Fuck Musk, don't buy Tesla, ditch Twitter, call out the racism and racists

[Poppa_Capinyoaz]

He's from South Africa and you're surprised he's racist.

[TheJesselopez]

The poll did not ask if it was okay to be white. It asked if the phrase, "it's okay to be white" was problematic. Given its racist origins it is.

[nickelpickel]

Republicans- 'Stop it! You calling out my racism makes you a racist.'

[OtsileM]

"you can take Elon out of South Africa but you can't take South Africa out of Elon"

[Redhand]

"Petri dish of their own privilege." Perfect.

[thepolarphantasm]

Elon musk paid 44 billion dollars for a machine that only prints Ls

[BlackBullRising]

He grew up in apartheid South Africa... Why is anyone shocked or surprised at his racial views?

[bikkiikun]

What else do you expect from a person who'd be a mere mid level engineer in some no-name company, were it not for his family profiting well from Apartheid.

[NOYOUSHUTUP.]

Remember Elon's father owned an apartheid emerald mine if anyone knows racism it's Elon.

[BORNdischarged]

It’s always surprising when people are like “This rich white dude from South Africa is a racist? There’s no way.” Don’t forget apartheid ended in the 90’s, so yeah I’m not surprised.

[MassiveInjustice]

Says the man who grew up in apartheid South Africa.

[SuprousOxide]

I'm white, and *I* would be suspicious of someone who said "It's OK to be white".
Not because I don't think it's OK to be white, but because making that statement implies extreme ignorance (perhaps deliberate) of the reality that nobody is discriminating against you for being white.

[procheathepitai]

As an Asian-American, I would never ally myself with a Trump-supporting Asian.

[aliceputt]

Musk grew up in Apartheid South Africa and his father was rich from the emerald mines he used blacks to mine. Imagine their working conditions. What else can you expect from him.
