Musk blames 'full-on communism' for his transgender child severing ties with him

Elon Musk clames communist ideology led his transgender-identifying child to sever ties with him, claiming that far-left politics led his progeny to view him as evil merely because he is rich. 

Musk's child, who was born a male and named Xavier but who now identifies as a female named Vivian, earlier this year filed a name change petition out of a desire to "no longer live with or [be] related to my biological father in any way, shape or form."

Musk on Friday told the Financial Times that Xavier's decision was motivated by communist politics. 

“It’s full-on communism and a general sentiment that if you’re rich, you’re evil," he argued. 

Musk is father to eight different children from several different women.
