Unless south Africa is also America he is in fact, not American. I don't even want to start on all the other asinine things you've stated.

Elon is an American citizen so it’s perfectly acceptable to call him an American. We shouldn’t gatekeep that with birthright just cause he’s an ass.

I'm an American living in Denmark and have done so for years, I love it here and have no intention of leaving. I've heavily considered giving up my citizenship in the US because I have no intention of returning, but I'm not Danish. Sometimes people say "you look Danish!" To me and internally I feel really uncomfortable. I wouldn't even call myself European, honestly.

However, that's my opinion, and to be honest musk embraced the American way more than I ever did so he's probably more American than I am. To each their own.
