Taking to his X account, the Senior Advisor for President Donald Trump responded to a tweet from a woman who stated that if it wasn't for Elon, she would not have known that "an entire political party in South Africa [advocated] for the deaths of their white population."

The woman added in her post:

"How is this not one of the biggest stories out there right now among the mainstream media, too?"

Seeing the tweet, Elon, who still feels that the South African white population is under attack, commented:

"The legacy media never mentions white genocide in South Africa because it doesn’t fit their narrative that whites can be victims."

Elon's tweet also comes after criticising Economic Freedom Fighter's main man Julius Malema, who sang the controversial Kill the Boer chant on Human Rights Day to commemorate the Sharpeville massacre.

X users disagree with Elon Musk

The Pretoria-born businessman's tweet was met with pushback from social media users, mostly South Africans, who felt that he was still sharing misinformation about his home country.

Controversial media personality Nota stated:

"Can but aren’t because such savagery has Neanderthal origins. There’s a genocide in Palestine you ignore while continuing to mischaracterise white flight. You and many others left South Africa running away from democracy. Now you volunteer for an administration that funds apartheid!"

@Oracle5152 wrote under Elon's post:

"It doesn’t mention anything about it because there’s nothing like this happening in South Africa."

A curious @Tamatoa_C asked:

"What's the endgame to such a narrative? Aren't legacy media predominantly controlled by white people?"

@TalbertSwan shared their opinion:

"You grew up during anti-black apartheid in South Africa. Never have you ever admitted the horrors of the violent system of racism, murder, degradation, and dehumanisation that you and your parents benefitted from."

An astonished @mrwinning247 added in the comment section:

"It’s amazing how little Americans truly know the world if they have not travelled and engaged with other people."

@OGBiggestRat said to the online community:

"I wish that people could not support this guy who is openly parroting white supremacist conspiracy theorists. We are in for an insane ride if it wasn't already obvious."
