    Is he even an Afrikaner? I thought his grandfather(?) was a Canadian that moved to South Africa because they had a racial caste system

    Him not being an Afrikaner would make him even more lame since that would at least give him cheesy action movie villain points

      Afrikaners are descendents of Dutch settlers so Musk wouldn’t count as one, because yeah, his grandpa was an American-Canadian who was so racist he moved to South Africa because they introduced apartheid what-the-hell

      Somehow this was another chapter of Musk lore I didn’t know about.

        What about his three other grandparents? Wikipedia tells Elon’s father, Errol Musk, was born in South Africa, but it says nothkng of this guy’s parents…
