skipped South Africa to avoid being drafted into the SADF to uphold the white supremacist state he benefited so richly from.

No, it's a Musk thing - he claims him skipping out on doing his bit for the Apartheid-regime (the true reason for his family's riches) was based on his (alleged) "stance" against the Apartheid-regime - but his overt white supremacism and his enabling of far-right ideologies kind of disproves all of that, doesn't it?
