Musk, 51, has the upper hand on Zuckerberg in terms of sheer physical size, and he has talked about being in “real hard-core street fights” when he was growing up in South Africa

Of course he has melon-musk

God we live in such a fucking absurd timeline, and we know it’s only going to get less sensible

    I think after that incident he changed schools to Pretoria Boys High School, probably was bullied for being a nerd as it's an all boys school crazy for sports like rugby, with the highest school fees in the country. Though he probably felt more at home with fellow rich kid bullies. See my other comment in the thread

      Almost got sent to one of those as a kid, thankfully ended up in a coed nightmare private school instead

      If anyone deserves that experience it’s Elon Musk.

        I was a scholarship kid at one (not the one Musk went to thankfully) 💀

        It's why I'm making so many comments here, it's absurd to suggest anyone that went to one of these schools was in hardcore street fights. The closest thing to gangs there are failson stoners selling weed and shrooms out of their sports kitbag in the forest/bush. There are no hardcore street fights

          How lily white and racist are they, on a scale of W.E.B. Du Bois to German schools in Namibia

            They are basically British colonial schools in South Africa, so much closer to German schools in Namibia than anything else. There are quite a few black learners, but it doesn't change much. I linked articles about the one Musk went to.

            Mine had plays with blackface and Indian face, certain parts of the school were called shit like the boere wall, Taj Mahal, black tree, etc. And an official award for the token black kid that embraced the school culture the most. Soccer was also banned. I attended during the 2010s.

            So yeah I think you can draw your conclusions from there.
