Elon Musk reckons his daughter has cut ties with him because he believes her ‘communist’ schools have turned her against him.

During an interview with Financial Times, the Tesla CEO disclosed that his relationship with his daughter, Vivian, 18, is strained due to her school preaching ‘full-on communism’ where ‘if you’re rich, you’re evil’.

However, the billionaire maintained he had a ‘good relationship’ with his other seven children.

He added: “Can’t win them all.”

Musk’s daughter, who is transgender, last year applied to have her last name changed to Vivian Jenna Wilson as she no longer wanted to be related to her biological father 'in any way, shape or form’, as per BBC News.

Vivian applied to request a new birth certificate along with the name change at Los Angeles County Superior Court in Santa Monica in April 2021.

While Musk provided no comment at the time, the SpaceX founder has widely criticised pronouns in a series of tweets.

In July 2020, he wrote: “Pronouns suck.”

After Musk received backlash for the post, Grimes, whom he shares two children with, wrote: "I love you but please turn off ur phone or give me a [call]. I cannot support hate. Please stop this. I know this isn't your heart."

In December 2020, Musk mocked people who stated their pronouns in their social media bio.

In a follow-up tweet, he wrote: “I absolutely support trans, but all these pronouns are an esthetic nightmare.”

Musk has also publicly supported Ron DeSantis for US President, the Republican Florida governor who introduced the so-called ‘Don't Say Gay’ bill, which prevents the teaching of sexual orientation and gender identity from pre-school to third grade.

In July of this year, a Twitter user asked if Musk would vote for a Republican candidate in the next presidential election, to which he responded, 'tbd'.

The user followed up with who he would want to elect, and the 51-year-old responded: “DeSantis.”

However, during his interview with the Financial Times, he alluded to the idea that he enjoys trolling when posting on Twitter.

“Aren’t you entertained?” Musk asked. “I play the fool on Twitter and often shoot myself in the foot and cause myself all sorts of trouble.

"I don’t know, I find it vaguely therapeutic to express myself on Twitter.

"It’s a way to get messages out to the public.”
