A fiery exchange has gone viral as Elon Musk openly questioned South Africa’s race-based economic laws that, he claims, are blocking Starlink from operating in the country.

During the tense interview, Musk repeatedly pressed for a clear yes-or-no answer on whether such laws are justified, calling them discriminatory, while the interviewer defended them as tools for economic equality.
