- Defended apartheid-era policies as ‘feeding’ rather than oppression
Elon Musk’s father Errol Musk has declared that the United States will be ‘doomed’ if white Americans become a minority population within the next two decades. The controversial statement came during a CNN interview where he drew parallels to South Africa’s racial dynamics.
Controversial CNN Interview
During Donie O’Sullivan’s special ‘MisinfoNation: White Genocide,’ Errol Musk was informed that America is projected to become a minority-white country for the first time in its history within 20 years. He responded emphatically: “Well, that will be a very, very bad thing to happen.”
Musk questioned why anyone would want to see the US “go down,” asking: “You don’t like cars or electric cars? You don’t like technology? Or what is it? You want to go back to the jungle?” When pressed if he believed the US would be doomed under such circumstances, he affirmed: “Yes, goes under there.”
South Africa Comparison Sparks Debate
Errol Musk pointed to South Africa as an example, stating: “We have a small white population that projects European culture. What we learned from Europe.”
When O’Sullivan countered that this involved “oppressed millions of Black people for decades,” Musk vehemently denied the characterization of oppression.
“No! How do you oppress? You know, we gave them work, we fed them,” he argued. “They grew from a tiny little group into a massive group. That’s not oppression, that’s feeding them! You only grow big if you get fed. You only start at 800,000 and become 50 million if you get fed! We fed them, for crying out loud!”
The full interview is scheduled to air on Sunday, November 16, 2025, with promotional clips already circulating online.
