But no one should buy the premise here, because it is so ugly. That premise is that people have fixed racial identities, and these categories are strict. The most disturbing line in the article is this righteous bit—“asked if any of his family had intermarried while in East Africa, he said in the interview on Thursday, ‘They’re all of Indian origin, from Gujarat.’”

Just a damn good point that race is not set in stone but dynamic. Haven't seen this post until now.

This empire is going to take a few generations to fall. Doubt I'll see a revolution in my life time, but maybe my kids will get to see that silver lining.

Musk has his own marketing apparatus in China as well, and the government has been looking the other way because this feud will benefit them in the long run.
