Don't by rayciss, yo.

Heck, I can be African-American if I declare I identify as such, as my ancestors emigrated out of Africa 'bout 50,000 years ago.  I'm also a native American!

But Musk legitimately qualifies.

   Isn't it supposed to be racist to treat people differently according to their colour ?

It depends on the terms used.

He's white, and has white parents. If you consider that statement of fact is racist, you are far too woke for me.

Elon Musk was born in Pretoria, South Africa, on June 28, 1971.

In 2002, Musk acquired U.S. citizenship.

 

 

Not sure what you're implying with his grandfathers, since he himself was birthed on Wakandan soil.

 

Or are you cleverly agreeing with Trump that birf'right citizenship should be annulled?

 

Okay, that's fair.  I'll trade you 1 former Wakandan-American for millions of anchor babies.

 

Done!  Think of all the social security we're gonna save!!!

The left wing liberals are a bunch of hypocrites. They cry about Trump and Musk having self interests but it is they who benefit from wanton, excessive spending of the good taxpayers money.

In this case, you're calling a Labrador a dog, but refusing to call a poodle a dog, because you're breedist.

If President Musk decides he has to "investigate the investigators", we have to assume he has good cause, as he is obviously and legally as infallible as a Borgia Pope.

It was so nice of him to let the older man have a seat:

 

@bannork

All chocolate people that live in the USA, or Americas are not 'African Americans' ...unless ... they have citizenship in a country of Africa.  They are USA citizens or Americans, citizens of the country they were born in.  

 

Musk having both, he is the only white AA that I know of.  Surely many more, that I don't know about.   Along with 2 already mentioned, and 1 was Ugandan, the other Nigerian, along with being citizens of the USA.

 

I an not German American, Jewish American or Brit American, since knowing some recent ancestors before the USA was the USA came from those countries or religions, and probably a few more, depending how far you want to go back.  If think like special interest groups (with an agenda) then I also could consider myself AA, since most of humans migrated from Africa, before it had a name.

 

There's that divisive label thing again, that I find usually used for one's self interests, or by racist trying to divide & distract.

 

And for myself, surely some of those ancestors were slaves, to some conquering country, tribe or clan, as was the thing in the day, spoils to the victors.  So I'll also be expecting a reparation check in the mail, for the hardships, mine, like every other persons ancestors endured and some time in history.
