During a conversation with Canadian eccentric Jordan Peterson on Monday, billionaire X owner Elon Musk asserted that his 20-year-old transgender child, Vivian Jenna Wilson, was “dead” and had been “killed by the woke mind virus.”
“If we allow children to take permanent actions when they’re ten, twelve, fourteen years old, they will do things that they subsequently greatly regret.” Musk said during a recent appearance on the Jordan B. Peterson podcast.
“Why are you willing to make this an issue? It happened to one of my older boys.” he continued.

“I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys, Xavier. This was before I had really any understanding of what was going on. I was told Xavier might commit suicide… So I was tricked into doing this and, you know, it wasn’t explained to me that puberty blockers are actually just sterilization drugs.” he added.
“They call it deadnaming for a reason. The reason it’s called deadnaming is because your son is dead. So my son Xavier is dead. Killed by the woke mind virus.” Musk concluded.
In a post on X, the billionaire also discussed his estranged transgender offspring.
Xavier was born gay and slightly autistic , two attributes that contribute to gender dysphoria.
I knew that from when he was about 4 years old and he would pick out clothes for me to wear like a jacket and tell me it was “fabulous!”, as well as his love of musicals & theatre.…
