Errol Musk, the father of Elon Musk, has ignited a firestorm with recent remarks about demographic changes in the United States and racial dynamics in his home country of South Africa.

In a recent interview, the South African resident expressed alarm about projections that the white population in America will become a minority within the next two decades. He called this shift "a very, very bad thing to happen" and posed a series of rhetorical questions: "You want to see the U.S. go down? Why? You don't like electric cars, and you don't like technology? What is it, you want to go back to the jungle?"

Errol Musk didn't stop there. He went on to discuss South Africa, arguing that the "small white population that projects the European culture" has significantly contributed to the growth and development of the Black African population. He dismissed the concept of oppression in South Africa as "nonsense."

The timing couldn't be more politically charged. These comments arrive as the United States has decided to boycott the upcoming G20 summit in South Africa, following President Donald Trump's claims of a so-called "white genocide" in the country. South African officials have strongly denied these allegations.

The controversy has thrust racial and political tensions in both nations into sharp focus, creating yet another flashpoint in an already fraught international landscape.
