Elon Musk, an immigrant, was interviewed recently by the editor of the Economist. He said a bunch of dumb shit - for example that money wouldn’t exist in 2036, and that everybody wouldn’t have to work any more as AI would do their job for them.

Anyway, he’s now essentially calling for the assassination of the journalist over her questions about immigration.

@GossiTheDog His grandfather was jailed for being a traitor in Canada, then fled to South Africa to build apartheid. He was raised in a Nazi family, which fled South Africa when they realized apartheid was ending and they needed to launder bloody cash quick (e.g. origins of PayPal). Musk reportedly overstayed his American visa and was illegal, but wasn't deported.
