Notice how Elon’s response doesn’t take the opportunity handed to him on a silver plate to say “Apartheid was bad obviously” or something like that. As far as I know he’s never said anything about the topic, which you’d think he’d find an opportunity to do at some point among his many public statements. Unless, of course, his opinion on apartheid would be the extremely unpopular one we’d suspect, given everything else about his politics and background.
