Title pretty much. I vaguely remember a post and in the article Grandpa Musk said he was proud to finally embrace Nazism safely or something.

I tried searching for it but it’s kind of hard to search with the Nazi salute taking up most of the results.

Just wondered if anybody knew the post/article I was looking for and if they could find it?

Thanks for taking the time to read this post in advance!

    Lol at Errol Musk supposedly not being a piece of shit because he was a member of a progressive party at one point, undoubtedly to serve his own financial interests and reputation, and not because he suddenly decided that exploiting oppressed people in his emerald mine (and other businesses) was bad.

    He also married his stepdaughter, who he raised groomed from when she was 4.

    He also apparently supported trump before musk jr. ever did - https://www.huffpost.com/entry/elon-musk-father-errol-debunks-controversial-claims_n_67475372e4b08e4755035f4e (if anyone wants to actually watch the full interview where he apparently “discussed his family’s ties to the South African apartheid regime” among other things, and report back, you’re more than welcome, but I ain’t doing it lol)

    They both have zero redeeming qualities.

      Yup. From what I’ve read of Musk’s core family (himself & parents & now grandfather), it seems like they’re all uniquely awful people.
