Elon Musk Reacts To Andile Mngxitama Video After Malema Clash

Elon Musk responded to a video that went viral showing MK Party MP Andile Mngxitama urging his followers to “kill white people.” This occurs as the wealthiest man on earth and CEO of X openly denounces Julius Malema, the leader of the EFF, over remarks he made about the struggle song Kill The Boer. Pretoria-born Musk has previously expressed his opinion that Malema’s remarks encouraged the “genocide of white people.” His comments follow Tristan Tate, Andrew Tate’s brother, who characterizes Mngxitama’s acts as “terrifying” a few days prior.

A video that went viral earlier this week purportedly showed Andile Mngxitama, then the leader of the Black First Land First (BLF) party, inciting violence against white South Africans in response to remarks made by billionaire businessman Johann Rupert. Mngxitama, currently a member of the MK Party, made offensive remarks at a gathering of supporters in Potchefstroom.

He said:

“For each one person that is being killed by the taxi industry, we will kill five white people. For every black person you kill, we’ll kill five white people. You kill one of us; we’ll kill five of you.

“We’ll kill their children, we’ll kill their women. We’ll kill their dogs and cats; we’ll kill anything (that belongs to them).”

Elon Musk reacted with exclamation marks to a video that caught his attention. He has been vocal about South African race relations, especially about Julius Malema. In February, Musk replied to a tweet with a video montage of the EFF leader calling for a “revolution.”

He tweeted:

“The likely future leader of South Africa calls for the genocide of four million whites who live there.”

After the EFF celebrated its tenth anniversary in August of last year, Musk and Malema spat over the latter’s rendition of “Kill the Boer.” Elon Musk and Julius Malema’s Twitter feud became widely discussed in South Africa and other countries. Here’s a summary of everything they have tweeted about over the past few months: Elon claims that Julius is “pushing the genocide of white people.” Malema claps back, saying, “You’re talking s**t.”

Elon tweets that members of political parties are essentially part of a “cult” and draws attention to farm murders in South Africa. Malema makes fun of “Alien Musk” during a news conference. He says the rich guy “looks illiterate” and suggests that he learn more about the origins of the song “Kill The Boer.” Elon took issue with a New York Times piece that he said “supported genocide.” Additionally, he criticizes Julius, whom he refers to as “Melama,” for “chanting” about “killing white people.” Julius, according to Elon, is “beneath contempt.” In response, Malema calls Elon a “madman with money” and “very dangerous.”
