Tesla CEO Elon Musk visited the former Nazi death camp Auschwitz in Poland on Monday and declared himself "aspirationally Jewish". The X CEO made the comments during a discussion with commentator Ben Shapiro at the annual conference of the European Jewish Association in Krakow after the visit to the site.
"I have twice as many Jewish friends as non-Jewish friends," Musk told Shapiro. "I'm like Jewish by association. I'm aspirationally Jewish. So I was like, 'What are people talking about with this antisemitism?' Because I never hear it at dinner conversations. It's like an absurdity — at least in my friend circles".
