Elon Musk & White Identity Politics
On April 24, 2026, the Washington Post published an article that was critical of Elon Musk’s articulations about race. The taboo topic of our age is for whites to be self-aware. The fact that the richest man on the planet, who is arguably one of the most powerful, is racially conscious disturbs the establishment and its cultural gatekeepers to no end. That is why Musk’s posts are important in terms of fostering white racial consciousness. The only solution to our current predicament is through white identity politics. Musk’s posts are metapolitically invaluable; hopefully they continue to encourage others to post about white identity in its myriad forms. Our most potent armor is our white identity; without it we will not survive.
Our power flows from identity: as soon as white people lower the portcullis and raise the drawbridge to the hordes at our gates, the world will change for the better. That is the key to our survival. Every other group uses this simple rule: there is an in-group and an out-group. If we hold that as the ultimate truth, then we will be able to stop our own destruction.
In his essay “White Identity Politics: Inevitable, Necessary, Moral, Part 1” Greg Johnson explains that:
White identity politics is what happens when white people in a multiracial society start thinking of themselves as a group. Whites are distinct from other racial groups, which means that at least some of our values, interests, customs, and tastes will be different from other groups. Where group differences exist in the same geographical space, group conflicts are not far behind. Where there are group conflicts, there is politics.
In his April 14, 2026 X post, Elon Musk wrote “They are calling for the genocide of Whites” in response to a video from South Africa, his native country. The footage shows a mass rally during which Julius Malema, the genocidal leader of the far-Left Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) party, called for the killing of white South Africans: “Shoot to kill . . . Kill the Boer, the farmer!” Musk commented on another previous posting of this video on January 24, 2026. At that time, he wrote “He’s calling for genocide of Whites and the crowd is cheering.”
On April 16, 2026, Musk had this to say about race laws in South Africa: “There are now more anti-White and anti-Asian laws in South Africa than anti-Black laws under Apartheid. Racism is wrong no matter who it is against.” In another post on April 15, 2026, Musk wrote “The South African laws are literally super racist, plain and simple . . . South Africa now has more anti-White laws than Apartheid had anti-Black laws . . . The current South African government has objectively implemented Apartheid 2.0.” Moreover, on April 12, 2026, he posted “Racist laws in South Africa are evil and the politicians that push these are shameful, disgusting people.” He wrote this in response to news that South African President Cyril Ramaphosa would continue enforcing anti-white policies, euphemistically called “Black Economic Empowerment (BEE).” On April 3, 2026, Musk wrote “South Africa has extremely racist laws” in a post that decried BEE policies. The embattled white minority population of South Africa is in dire need of this sort of metapolitical support as their plight has been ignored by the vast majority of political figures and the press.
On December 27, 2025, Musk responded to an X post about Sam Melia, an English nationalist activist who was imprisoned for distributing stickers that read “mass immigration is white genocide” and “It’s okay to be White.” Musk wrote with emphasis: “Mass immigration of people that want to kill White people IS White genocide!” Meanwhile, the United Kingdom continues to import non-white foreigners who openly advocate for the murder of white Britons.
Musk is correct about this of course; and it is significant that he has used the term “white genocide” in several of his posts. White Genocide by definition is what we have seen unfolding in real time: the slow and deliberate eradication of white people.
In his December 12, 2025, article “Nationalism This Week: Musk, Trump, & the EU,” Greg Johnson wrote “Over the past weeks, Musk has continued to make extremely encouraging statements on anti-whiteness. For example, he has criticized the woke judiciary which coddles violent (usually black) criminals while throwing the book at whites.” Johnson goes on to give several examples of Musk’s posts that were especially encouraging at that time.
Another positive development related to Musk’s ever-expanding empire concerns his online encyclopedia, Grokipedia. On November 19, 2025, American Renaissance reposted an article from The Guardian that excoriates Musk’s answer to Wikipedia. Usually, anything The Guardian dislikes is something positive for our side. Here, in part, is what the arch-Leftist publication had to say:
Entries in Elon Musk’s new online encyclopedia variously promote white nationalist talking points, praise neo-Nazis and other far-right figures, promote racist ideologies and white supremacist regimes, and attempt to revive concepts and approaches historically associated with scientific racism, a Guardian analysis has found.
The tech billionaire and Donald Trump ally recently launched xAI’s AI-generated Grokipedia with a promise that it would “purge out the propaganda” he claims infests Wikipedia, the free online encyclopedia that Musk has often attacked but that has long been a key feature of the internet.
The article’s introduction further notes, that “The Guardian contacted xAI for comment. Seconds after the request was sent, there was an apparently automated reply that said only: ‘Legacy Media Lies.’” Which is the perfect response to legacy media outlets.
The article goes on to lament the positive Grokipedia entries about Jared Taylor, Kevin MacDonald, David Irving, William Luther Pierce, Revilo P. Oliver, Kevin Bird, and others. While The Guardian is aghast at the online encyclopedia’s failure to use Leftist polemics to describe White Nationalists, it can only be seen as a positive metapolitical pushback for our cause.
The Guardian was further scandalized by other entries including the one on White Nationalism itself. Here is what Grokipedia, in part, has to say:
White nationalism is a political ideology that emphasizes the distinct ethnic identity of people of European descent, advocating for their collective self-determination through the preservation or restoration of white-majority demographics in historically European-settled nations. Proponents frame it as a form of ethnic nationalism akin to other groups’ assertions of sovereignty, focusing on halting mass non-European immigration, opposing multiculturalism, and promoting cultural homogeneity to counter perceived threats from demographic shifts and globalization. Unlike white supremacy, which posits inherent racial superiority and domination over others, white nationalism prioritizes separation and preservation over subjugation, though the two are frequently conflated by critics in academic and media analyses that exhibit systemic ideological biases.
To conclude its introductory section, the Grokipedia entry notes that some defining achievements of White Nationalism “include shifting public discourse toward explicit recognition of white interests in populist platforms, challenging the post-1960s consensus on open borders.” That is a positive development, most certainly.
Even though Elon Musk is not a White Nationalist, per se, he is acutely aware of what is going on in the world and the challenges that white people face. His stance on identitarian issues and his metapolitical influence has been a positive force for our movement. Embrace white identity; without it, we will not survive.
