Elon Musk clashed with Vinod Khosla over claims of racial ideology, calling him a "pompous a**hole" on social media.

Elon Musk responded to criticism from Indian-American billionaire Vinod Khosla, who accused Musk of promoting a "WAGA" (White America Great Again) ideology based on Musk’s comments about the declining global share of white people. Khosla urged non-white and "decent white" employees at Musk’s companies to leave and join firms in his investment portfolio. Musk pushed back, calling Khosla a "pompous a**hole" and highlighting his partner’s Indian heritage and their son’s name, honoring Indian-American physicist Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar. The exchange unfolded on social media, reflecting broader tensions over race, identity, and leadership in tech.
