He probably didn't see the black as oppressed, because he saw them as they were in their "natural" place. Which is to serve white people.
The entitlement of people like him is absolutely mental.
Enough Musk Spam
For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.
Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.
Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.
Hmm…

>in a strong regime that was able to help block anything that was against them.
Yeah no discrimination against him, not incorrect at all. He never saw oppression. The oppressor never sees oppression. They see insubordination and people as underneath them
we can keep going
married his own step daughter
claims he never saw oppression
Of course he didn't - the oppressors never do.
claims it will be a “very bad thing” if the US becomes a minority white country
Worst case scenario, it'll only be a bad thing for the white minority, while the privileged majority will smugly proclaim that they see no oppression.
I visited South Africa during apartheid. IIRC, at the time a manual laborer or house servant was typically paid about $30.
Per month.
Most white people had a cook, a maid, a gardener, and a nanny if they had children.
They weren't allowed to live in white areas, have white jobs, go to White schools, enter whites only beaches or parks, etc.
Hundreds of thousands of people were detained without trial, tens of thousands more were killed. But no, I'm sure he didn't see any impression.
A very good and dramatic movie of the time is Biko, about the life and death of an anti-apartheid activist, and the newspaper editor he convinced to change sides.
Turns out if you're the one wearing the jackboots, you won't know how the soles feel on your neck
You can't see the faces you're stepping on
I mean, yeah, that's the point. You didn't allow black people to be anywhere near you.
Is this the emerald mine co-owner that ended up fucking his stepdaughter admitting he had privilege blinders? I’m not surprised at how much of a piece of shit he can be.
And his most famous son. The shit didn't fall very far from the anus.
some people make the world better only by leaving it.
Hes been an open shitheel his whole life
"We were the oppression"
The shitty racist apple didn't fall far from the shitty racist tree
They saw plenty of oppression, it just wasn’t from the perspective of being oppressed.
If you don't look you never see.
Is this satire?
Both Errol and Elon are unfortunately very real. And a statement like that is totally on brand for any number of (white) people.
I see the apple didn't fall far from the tree.
No mirrors in the whole country.
Turns out that the Musks either didn't have mirrors or that they are actual vampires. Currently leaning towards the vampires theory
