The daily thread
Elon Musk says her transgender daughter is dead in her eyes — saying she feels she has been brainwashed by the “awakened mind virus.”
Tesla boss gave an interview with Jordan Peterson on the Daily Wire this week, where he made alarming comments… saying that his 20-year-old daughter, Vivianwas “killed” for what he considers left-wing propaganda regarding LGBTQ+ issues.
Elon referred to his daughter by her birth name — which he correctly pointed out is her “death name,” and said that description is accurate… because he says his daughter is already gone at that point.
There was more context provided by EM about how he says this shift occurred for Vivian — Elon says she decided to transition during the pandemic… and he even claims he was “tricked” into signing medical documents to authorize any treatments she received.
Elon says he was told his daughter would take her own life if he didn’t agree to it — and now, looking back, he regrets giving her the green light to transition.
We know Elon has been outspoken on this topic lately — and he reinforced the point again in this conversation… saying he thinks allowing children to transition is “incredibly evil.”
Elon reiterated his promise to “destroy the conscious mind virus” after his experience… and now that he owns Twitter (or rather, X), he feels like he’s making progress.
He shares Vivian with his ex-wife Justine Wilson …who divorced him in the 2000s.
