Listen to article

Billionaire tech entrepreneur, Elon Musk, has reacted to a viral video showing a South African politician, Julius Malema, making inflammatory remarks about targeting white people.

The old video, posted on X (formerly Twitter) by a social media user @iamyesyouareno on Sunday, has sparked widespread outrage.

In the footage, Malema, the leader of South Africa’s Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) party is seen addressing a crowd, stating: “The mayor of DA in PE is a white man, so these people, when you want to hit them hard, go after a white man. They feel a terrible pain because we have touched a white man.”

He continues: “But we are starting with this whiteness, we are cutting the throats of whiteness.”

Sharing the video on X, the user captioned it: “‘We are cutting the throats of whites,’ but according to the legacy media, there isn’t an anti-white narrative in South Africa.”

Reacting on Monday, Elon Musk responded to the post by calling out Malema and describing his comment as ‘genocidal’. “This genocidal lunatic is the leader of a significant political party in the South African parliament,” Musk wrote.

The Eastern Updates reports that Malema has been embroiled in a variety of legal issues throughout his political career, he has been convicted of hate speech twice, once in March 2010 for demeaning comments about Zuma’s rape accuser, and again in September 2011 for singing “Dubul’ ibhunu” (“Shoot the Boer”).

In other news, United States President Donald Trump said on Sunday that he expects Elon Musk, the leader of the Department of Government Efficiency, DOGE, to uncover billions of dollars in fraud and abuse at the Pentagon during an audit led by the billionaire.

Trump made this statement in a Super Bowl interview with Fox News’ Brett Baier.

Musk, whom the White House describes as a special government employee, has been tasked by Trump with leading an effort to reduce the size of the United States federal workforce.
