    We now know that racism is a very bad thing. Unfortunately, realpolitik ensures that the main consequence of this is that it is absolutely unacceptable to accuse anyone of racism unless they’re already serving several consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole or otherwise have no clout. Therefore, this is “odd-looking” or perhaps “awkward”. Press them and they’ll scramble for explanations to do with obscure medical syndromes or the esoteric corners of history (could Musk be obsessed with ancient Rome like Zuck is?). It won’t even get to “racially charged”, as that’s for peons who let a slur slip.
