Elon Musk’s Estranged Daughter Wants To Leave US; Here’s Why?

by · Odisha Bytes

New Delhi: Vivian Jenna Wilson, the transgender daughter of Elon Musk, says she is leaving the U.S. over Donald Trump’s return to the White House.

“I’ve thought this for a while, but yesterday confirmed it for me. I don’t see my future being in the United States,” she said in a Threads post on Wednesday.

“Even if he’s only in office for 4 years, even if the anti-trans regulations magically don’t happen, the people who willingly voted this in are not going anywhere anytime soon.”

Twenty-year-old Wilson is estranged from her father, who poured hundreds of millions of dollars into Trump’s campaign and has the ear of the president-elect.

Trump has said he would restrict gender-affirming care, bar transgender women from women’s sports teams and keep transgender people from using facilities that align with their gender identity as president.

Musk said in a July interview that Wilson was “killed by the woke mind virus,” and that he had been “tricked” into authorizing gender-affirming care for her.

In response to Musk’s comments, Wilson described her father as “cold,” “very quick to anger” and “narcissistic” in an interview with NBC News, according to Politico.

Wilson’s feelings for her father had not been a very healthy one. Wilson hates Musk and has recently publicly talked about him for transphobia and harsh parenting. She said that Musk’s criticism began when she was very young and she described one particular experience that shocked her. She even called the billionaire a “serial adulterer.”

“I was in fourth grade. We went on this road trip that I didn’t know was actually just an advertisement for one of the cars—I don’t remember which one—and he was constantly yelling at me viciously because my voice was too high,” Wilson recounted in an interview with NBC. “It was cruel.”

Musk has often referred to her using her birth name rather than recognizing her transition, an act known as “deadnaming,” disrespectful in the transgender community. “She went beyond socialism to being a full communist and thinking that anyone rich is evil,” he said.

The SpaceX CEO said during an interview with Jordan Peterson, “I lost my son, essentially.… My son Xavier is dead, killed by the woke mind virus … so I vowed to destroy the woke mind virus after that.” He has also described his daughter as a “full communist” who holds that “anyone rich is evil.”

Notably, Musk, currently the wealthiest person in the world, has frequently used his public platform to criticize social movements and individuals he believes embody “woke” ideals..
