Elon Musk says no primates died as a result of Neuralink’s implants. A WIRED investigation now reveals the grisly specifics of their deaths as US authorities have been asked to investigate Musk’s claims.

Okay… But Musk is from South Africa, which very much did have apartheid.
I’m from Oregon, which was founded as a white separatist colony. I’d prefer to judge Musk on his support for fascism in the US, his unsafe rocket launches, and his monkey torture … not on his birthplace.
That’s all true. However, it’s helpful to see what foundational values he was raised with. If your parents had been rich and influential and completely on board with keeping Oregon a sundown state, that would not be irrelevant. Even if you hated it and them, it would have some role in your life.
I agree. There is plenty to dislike about him that where he is from doesn’t really have to be part of it.
