Elon Musk claims his trans daughter is dead because she transitioned

Elon Musk claims his trans daughter is dead because she transitioned

The wealthiest man on Earth blames the "woke mind virus" for his trans daughter disowning him. Others say he has only himself to blame.
By Mira Lazine Tuesday, July 23, 2024


Transphobic billionaire Elon Musk recently said his transgender daughter was “killed” by the “woke mind virus,” which he vowed to “destroy.” Musk made his comments In a now-viral interview with fringe right-wing psychologist Jordan Peterson,.

“I lost my son. They call it deadnaming for a reason. The reason it’s called deadnaming is because your son is dead. My son [Vivian] is dead,” he said while deadnaming his daughter Vivian Jenna Wilson. “I vowed to destroy the woke mind virus after that. And we’re making some progress.”
Musk claimed he was “tricked” into supporting Vivian’s transition, saying that he had no clue what was going on.

Musk continued misgendering and deadnaming Vivian, saying, “I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys. This was really before I had any understanding of what was going on, and we had COVID going on, so there was a lot of confusion and I was told [Vivian] might commit suicide.”

Vivian Jenna Wilson had previously cut ties with Musk, changing her legal name and gender in 2022. She’s the daughter of Justine Wilson, a Canadian author who divorced Musk back in 2008.

isn't it time he was neutered? It's criminal to go around having that many kids, especially when you basically ignore most of them.

What "progress" does this moron think is being made? The progress to force trans children to hide or kill themselves? What a sub-human he is.

His condemnation of other psychologists and clinicians should be seen in the light of the treatment of Peterson by the ICRC - Inquiries, Complaints and Reports Committee (“ICRC”) of the College of Psychologists of Ontario ( "CPO" ).

From wikipedia

...

In November, 2022 the ICRC ordered Peterson to complete a specified continuing education or remedial program regarding professionalism in public statements.[27][31][32] The ICRC concluded that some of the language used in his public statements between January 2022 and June 2022 "may be reasonably regarded by members of the profession as disgraceful, dishonourable and/or unprofessional" and that his statements "posed moderate risk of harm to the public" by "undermining public trust in the profession of psychology".[27] They also concluded that he “appeared to be engaging in degrading comments about a former client and making demeaning jokes on the Joe Rogan experience".[27]

Peterson denied any wrongdoing and filed for judicial review.[33][31] Peterson's appeal was reviewed in August, 2023 by a panel of three judges of the Ontario Divisional Court, who unanimously upheld the college's initial decision[34] concluding that the ICRC's reasoning in their 2022 decision was "transparent, intelligible, justifiable, and reasonable" and ordered Peterson to pay the CPO $25,000 in legal costs.[27] The decision was upheld on appeal to the Ontario Court of Appeals in January 2024.[35]

...when you fully adopt its language without any idea what it means.

Woke (& Woke Mind Virus)
DEI
Deep State
Activist Judges
Job Creators
Fake News
Partial Birth Abortion
Cancel Culture
Homosexual Agenda

Use of these terms, launched into empty minds by media canons like Breitbart, Faux Snooze, and Info Wars, and eventually by the MSM itself, are meant to convey "the secret language" that makes you a "special member" of the cult.

Cults have used this technique for years as a method of shepherding the sheep. These words are emotionally packed so that their use triggers emotional responses with a complete lack of rational thinking.

What is the antithesis of woke...asleep?

Am I supposed to be asleep? Is consciousness and empathy the sum of all fears?

The whole thing is mindless...and that is the point.

would love their kids unconditionally. Apparently, money not only can't buy happiness, it can't buy emotional maturity!
I hope Vivian does well, and finds love and acceptance in their life.

It was she who went to court to change her last name, several years ago. So really, he was un-personed by her long before he declared her dead. Just sayin'.

Elon Musk’s transgender daughter, in first interview, says he berated her for being queer as a child
In an exclusive interview, Vivian Jenna Wilson said her father’s recent statements, including that she is “not a girl,” inspired her to speak out: “I’m not just gonna let that slide.”

Vivian Jenna Wilson, the transgender daughter of Elon Musk, said Thursday in her first interview that he was an absent father who was cruel to her as a child for being queer and feminine.

Wilson, 20, in an exclusive interview with NBC News, responded to comments Musk made Monday about her and her transgender identity. On social media and in an interview posted online, Musk said she was “not a girl” and was figuratively “dead,” and he alleged that he had been “tricked” into authorizing trans-related medical treatment for her when she was 16.

Wilson said that Musk hadn’t been tricked and that, after initially having hesitated, he knew what he was doing when he agreed to her treatment, which required consent from her parents.

Musk’s recent statements crossed a line, she said.

“I think he was under the assumption that I wasn’t going to say anything and I would just let this go unchallenged,” Wilson said in a phone interview. “Which I’m not going to do, because if you’re going to lie about me, like, blatantly to an audience of millions, I’m not just gonna let that slide.”
