Elon Musk Is a Paid Subscriber to Shockingly Racist Pro-Apartheid South African X Account

Elon Musk, the richest man in the world and advisor to President-elect Donald Trump, is a paid subscriber to a virulently racist X account.

Musk not only follows an account called “Boer” (@twatterbaas) but is one of two accounts to pay it for “bonus content and extra perks.” Boer charges $5/month for said perks and content.

In one of the account’s most recent tweets, Boer submitted that “Atrica [sic] has 54 countries, 1.487 billion people. On the Southern tip lays South Africa, with the largest Economy and best infrastructure. Guess what makes South Africa different from the rest of Africa? 4.6 million white people.”

In other instances, the account has touted rape rates in “Black ruled” countries, used pictures to suggest that the country was better off under racial apartheid, asked “why do blacks like to destroy and break what white man made?” and urged “these racist blacks of #SouthAfrica to stop being selfish and transfer the strategical jobs and planning to us whites of this country.”

Musk, the owner of X and Mediaite’s most influential figure of 2024, will help lead Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, an advisory task force focused on cutting federal spending. But he has also emerged as a leading culture warrior on the American right.

Last week, Musk praised Germany’s far-right AfD party, submitting that only it “can save Germany.” Earlier this year, he suggested that President Joe Biden’s “strategy” was “very simple”:

1. Get as many illegals in the country as possible.

2. Legalize them to create a permanent majority – a one-party state.

That is why they are encouraging so much illegal immigration. Simple, yet effective.

Musk was born into a wealthy South African family. His father, Errol Musk, served on the Pretoria City Council as a member of the anti-apartheid Progressive Party, while his maternal grandfather, Joshua Haldeman, was an supporter of apartheid who insisted that “the natives are very primitive and must not be taken seriously.”
