Elon Musk, Tesla CEO and owner of X, says his daughter’s so-called progressive school in Los Angeles turned her into a communist who hates her father because he is rich.
He made these comments in Walter Isaacson’s upcoming biography titled “Elon Musk.” On Thursday, the Wall Street Journal published an excerpt from the biography in which he partly blames the Crossroads private school in Los Angeles for the relationship he has with his child.
The bio states that Musk’s “anti-woke” beliefs are partly due to the decision of his eldest child, who switched from Xavier to Jenna at the age of 16.
“Hey, I’m transgender and my name is now Jenna,” Musk’s child wrote to Musk’s brother’s wife.

Musk tried to stay positive when he found out, but his child then became an “ardent Marxist and cut off all relations with him,” the biography says.
“She went beyond socialism, became a full-fledged communist and thought that anyone who was rich was evil,” Musk said.

The rift between Musk and his child hurt him “more than anything else in his life since the infant death of his first-born child, Nevada,” Isaacson wrote.
“I made a lot of overtures,” Musk said. “But she doesn’t want to spend time with me.”

Musk said he felt his child had been infected by a mindset that suppressed both “right-wing and anti-establishment voices,” Isaacson wrote, similar to what he wrote on Twitter.
