What exactly is the joke?

You can throw a Black person into a Viking role, even though it’s historically off, and everyone’s cool with it—creative freedom and all that. But flip it the other way, and suddenly you’re painted as some monster who smashes pregnant women and cheers for Israel.

The double standards are ridiculous, that’s the joke.

I’m out of the loop, what movie or show is Elon in where he’s playing an African?

Who is saying Musk is not from Africa? Why do we care?

Iapar ,

But black vikings existed and elon musk is not playing a role in a TV show. So you whole thing doesn’t make sense.

Which makes it not funny because its not true.

black vikings existed

There is no historical evidence to suggest that Black Vikings existed lol

Iapar ,

There are poems for example that mention the skin color black in that context.

Just because you don’t know something does not mean that it doesn’t exist.

OP is a racist jumping through alt accounts. In their mind, they’re making of fun of some imaginary dissonance between people liking the person in the top image and not liking the person in the bottom image.

They only ever see through the perspective of a racist.
In their tiny mind, “other race = inherently bad”, so to them, non-racist people must surely be going… “other race = inherently good”.

To them, race here was some magic card they can pull out as a gotcha, as if we should like Musk because he’s African.

Their little brain cannot fathom we might dislike Musk because he’s a billionaire narcissist sociopath and not because he was born in Africa.

It’s like a strawman made from artificial grass.
