Elon Musk Says Transgender Daughter Is ‘Dead’
Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, has claimed that his transgender daughter is “dead.”
The billionaire, currently the world’s richest man, made the comment during a lengthy interview with right-wing firebrand Jordan Peterson for The Daily Wire.
Musk’s 20-year-old daughter, one of six children he had with first wife Justine Wilson, legally changed her gender and name to Vivian Jenna Wilson in 2022, dropping Musk’s surname and stating in court filings that she “no longer wishes to be related” to Musk “in any way.”
Peterson called psychiatrists who help minors transition “contemptible cowards” and compared them to “the Nazis.”
Musk cited Gov. Gavin Newsom’s stance on the issue as one of the reasons for moving his company’s headquarters out of California.
Musk then added, “So-called gender-affirming care is a terrible euphemism, that is for sure. “It is child mutilation and sterilisation disguised as gender-affirming care.”
He continued, “It is evil. I mean, you are taking kids who are obviously often under the age of consent—almost every child goes through some kind of identity crisis, it is just part of growing up—so it is very possible for adults to manipulate children who are going through a natural identity crisis into believing that they are the wrong gender and that they need to be the other gender.”
Musk stated, “We have an age of consent for a reason.” The reason you can not get tattoos under the age of 18, or drink or drive, and there are some ages when you can, is that if we allow children to take permanent actions when they are 10, 12, or 14 years old, they will do things they later regret.”
Musk responded: “It happened to one of my older boys, Xavier, where I was essentially tricked into signing documents before I had really any understanding of what was going on, and we had COVID, so there was a lot of confusion. I was told that Xavier might commit suicide.
He stated: “It was not explained to me that puberty blockers are actually sterilisation drugs. So, anyway, I have lost my son.”
Musk continued: “They call it ‘deadnaming’ for a reason. The term “deadnaming” refers to the fact that your son is no longer alive. So my son, Xavier, died from the woke mind virus.”
Musk concluded: “I promised to destroy the woke mind virus after that, and we are making progress.
“Deadnaming” refers to a name that a transgender person used before transitioning.
