Elon Musk’s bombshell interview with Daily Wire‘s Jordan Peterson has sparked a new wave of discussion online. On Monday, the Tesla CEO sat for a chat with the renowned psychologist to speak about his child, Wilson, and their transition. Recall that in 2022, Wilson legally changed her gender to female and her name from Xavier to Vivian Jenner Wilson. During the interview, Musk claimed he was tricked into letting the 20-year-old become a transgender woman.
“It happened to one of my older boys where I was tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys, Xavier,” Musk said.
The billionaire explained that, at the time, he didn’t understand what was happening. Musk said it was during the COVID-19 period, and he became confused over fears Xavier would commit suicide. In response to Elon Musk’s concerns, Jordan Peterson revealed it was a lie from the onset. According to him, the suicidal thoughts were mostly caused by underlying depression and anxiety rather than gender dysphoria. Musk couldn’t agree more, describing what happened to his child as evil.
“It’s incredibly evil and I agree with you that people that are promoting this should go to prison,” Musk revealed.
The SpaceX CEO revealed that his experience with Xavier opened his eyes to what he termed “the woke mind virus.” He noted that when he consented to Wilson taking puberty blockers, he didn’t know they were sterilization drugs.
“I was tricked into doing this. It wasn’t explained to me that puberty blockers are actually just sterilization drugs,” he said.
Musk went on to admit that he lost his son, figuratively noting that the “woke mind virus” killed his child.
“I lost my son essentially. They call it ‘deadnaming’ for a reason. The reason they call it ‘deadnaming’ is because your son is dead, so my son, Xavier, is dead, killed by the woke mind virus,” Musk noted.
Following his child’s transition, the doting dad said he vowed to destroy the woke mind virus. Elon Musk admitted during the bombshell interview that he is making some progress. Unfortunately, it will only cause more strain on his estranged relationship with Wilson.
Musk’s latest claims about Wilson add to their fractured relationship. In addition to legally changing her gender from male to female and changing her name, Wilson revealed she no longer wanted to be related to Musk. On the other hand, Musk has previously slammed Wilson and labeled her a communist. One can only wonder how long the pair will go on aiming at each other.
