Elon Musk's Increased Social Media Posts Highlight Concerns About White Identity

Elon Musk has significantly increased his social media posts on race, focusing largely on concerns about discrimination against White people. A Washington Post analysis found he posted about race nearly 850 times in seven months, with over half referencing 'white' or 'Whites.' Musk has described Whites as a 'rapidly dying minority' and criticized what he calls propaganda against White, male, or straight individuals. Critics argue his views echo white identity politics and raise concerns amid his companies' business pressures.
