Speaking to the MailOnline, Errol said he’s proud to watch his son “accepting who he is”. He said: "I think for the first time Elon was accepting who he is. Until recently, he’s been a sort of character on a stage.
“When you come from South Africa, Lefties think you’re a Nazi. To succeed, you need to be accepted by them so my sons, [Elon and younger brother Kimbal, a hugely successful restaurateur], started to become these flaming liberals – turning away from South Africa and their roots, which included me. Finally, Elon was embracing his heritage and his destiny.”
In a separate interview, Errol explained how right-wing poltics were at the core of his family’s history. Elon’s maternal grandparents relocated from Canada to South Africa in the early 1900s as they knew the Afrikaner government was a stronghold of support for Nazism outside of Germany.
"They used to support Hitler and all that sort of stuff. But they didn’t know, I don’t think they knew what the Nazis were doing. But they [the grandparents] were in the German Nazi party but in Canada. And they sympathise with the Germans. "
They had “no idea” what the Nazis were but moved from a country against Nazis to a country with a strong base of Nazi sympathisers…
I wonder why people might think they were Nazis hmmm.
Elon was always “embracing” this side of himself, just that before 2016 he had to be more covert about it, as did all the other racist woodlouse that came out of the woodwork
