Elon Musk, renowned for his ventures like Tesla and SpaceX and his social media platform X, enjoys global popularity. However, amid ongoing public disputes, his trans daughter Vivian strongly disapproves of him.
Musk, a polarizing figure since acquiring X to promote “free speech,” has attracted criticism, mostly from external sources. Yet, some of the sharpest critiques come from within his family, particularly Vivian, who has publicly rebuked him on the social media network Threads.
This week, she posted: “You are not a family man; you are a serial adulterer who won’t stop lying about your children.” She further criticized Musk’s influence: “You single-handedly disillusioned me with how gullible we are as a species because somehow people keep believing you for reasons that continue to evade me.”
These comments follow Musk’s claim that he was “tricked” into consenting to Vivian’s transition, previously known as Xavier. In a July interview with Dr. Jordan Peterson for the Daily Wire, Musk recounted being misled during a confusing time, worried about the potential for suicide if the transition did not occur.
In an ongoing and public disagreement, Musk lamented that Vivian was “killed by the woke-mind virus” following her decision for gender reassignment surgery. Vivian retorted by sharing a photo with the caption, “I look pretty good for a dead b-h.”
Musk, who has voiced strong opposition to gender reassignment surgery for minors, calling it “incredibly evil,” is also embroiled in a custody dispute with singer Claire Elise Boucher, with whom he has three children.
Musk had two ex-wives, one of whom he married and divorced twice, and as many as 12 children.
