Joshua Haldeman died in a crash during a practice flight in 1974. Elon was a toddler. Though not directly influenced, echoes of Joshua’s technocratic ideals, anti-mainstream instincts, and defiant worldview may still ripple through his legacy.

Despite his politics, he remained a respected chiropractor—leading South Africa’s chiropractic association for years. He was also an aviation enthusiast, logging thousands of miles in private flights and searching for the “Lost City of the Kalahari.”

After the Sharpeville Massacre (1960), in which 69 unarmed Black South Africans were killed by police, Haldeman doubled down. He published a 42-page tract titled The International Conspiracy to Establish a World Dictatorship…

He ran for parliament in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, but lost, receiving 4.3% of the vote. In 1947, he claimed Hitler had been installed by “Jewish money.” By 1949, he had resigned as chairman of the party’s national council. Privately, he was also an aviator, a boxer and wrestler.

Errol Musk, Elon’s father, later claimed Joshua sympathized with Nazi Germany. While Joshua publicly avoided overt antisemitism, he did defend the party’s newspaper, which published “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” a well-known antisemitic forgery.

He joined the Saskatchewan Farmer’s Political Association in 1928, advocating for rural and economic reform. In 1936, he became a vocal supporter of technocracy—the idea that engineers and scientists should govern society, not politicians.

Instead of practicing, he first turned to farming—until he lost his job during the Great Depression. He worked as a cowboy and rodeo performer, before returning to chiropractic. His new practice thrived and grew into one of the largest in Canada.

Joshua’s academic journey was unconventional: he attended nine different colleges and universities, but graduated from only one—the Palmer School of Chiropractic in Iowa. He was particularly drawn to Palmer’s “neurocalometer,” a pseudoscientific device.

Today, let's talk about Elon #Musk's maternal grandfather, Joshua Haldeman.
The Haldeman family originated in the Swiss village of Signau, Bern, traceable to 1544. In the 17th century, they converted from Protestantism to Anabaptism—then a popular but persecuted movement.
