I can give you a written documentary that would be more accurate than the movie.
Once upon a time there was a little ugly white boy in Africa named Elon Musk. He had dreams of making it big but sadly the country he lived in hated Nazis and Pedophiles... so he had to move. He was denied a work visa so he got a student visa instead but used it to work. He used his whiteness to avoid being deported. Finally he got mildly rich. So he begged Epstein for some fun at pedo island but was rejected because he was the wrong kind of rich. So Musk went back to raping adult women while he plotted. He paid attention to which groups would allow him to rape women and children while being openly nazi. He found his place among the Republican party. He used everything he had including control of voting machines (and programming them to change votes) to ensure a pedophile would become president. Now he was safe... now he could openly do the Nazi salute. but sadly for him... only 1/3rd of the population in his new home support nazis, pedophiles, and rapists. and even sadder is that most of them are poor broke morons who can't afford to buy his expensive products and he started losing money. Now he had a brilliant plan, so he asked his pet pedophile president to help him and that is how Americans got fucked by DOGE. Now he does everything to ensure that the USA stays Nazi... cause he knows that if it doesn't... he will go back to living in a tiny place with bars on the windows. and this time he won't have the option to walk out the door a free little ugly pedophile nazi anymore.
Sorry but South Africa hating Nazis? You have to try harder than that wishful thinking.
The majority did and do, tho the majority weren't allowed to vote until 1994! (Only whites were allowed to vote [except for a sham tricameral system since 1984 for mixed-race people and people of Indian decent].)
Nelson Mandela was released from jail in 1990.
Musk emigrated to Canada in 1989, and went to Pennsylvania in 1992.
While Musk is a narcissistic, psychotic, white supremacist (supporter of Republicans, televised nazi salutes at Trump victory party, AfD and similar support in many other countries, lying about a white genocide in South Africa, ...), and there were signs in South Africa that the Apartheid regime were having trouble with the growing international boycotts against it, it's not clear Musk left because Mandela's ANC and other anti-apartheid organizations were to be unbanned soon. He probably did it knowing that in the USA psychotic, omnicidal greed is rewarded, and ethical behavior is punished.
Side note: In 2009, the majority of South African voters elected, and later re-elected their own Trump-lite narcissistic, psychotic, openly corrupt, racist president: Jacob Zuma. His party eventually prepared a motion-of-no-confidence against Zuma, so Zuma resigned.
Yeah just saying that South Africa doesn't exactly have a great track record in antifascism.
