Summary

Vivian Jenna Wilson, Elon Musk’s daughter, accused her father of giving a “definitely Nazi salute” at two rallies in January, calling his actions “fucking cringe.”

In an interview with Teen Vogue, she criticized Musk’s involvement in the Trump administration and advocated for trans rights, emphasizing the importance of gender-affirming care for minors.

Wilson, who transitioned as a teen, described Musk as cold and absent, and revealed she no longer associates with him or his family.

She also expressed fear over anti-trans legislation under Trump’s administration.

    Well thats one member of the Musk family I can understand and who seems like a decent human being.

    Hope she manages to get away from that cringe fucker as soon as possible.

      The article literally said she doesn’t associate with him or his family. Seems like she’s away from him…

      But damn… I can’t imagine what it would be like to be trans and have your dad as the most prominent and powerful Nazi in the world, spearheading a sham federal org called DOGE that is basically eliminating all reference to people like you and firing people like you in the most powerful country in the world.

      So many layers to that experience, I imagine.

        It really sounds like the plot of a kids movie.

        I mean, ya know, aside from the Nazis. But just having an extremely powerful, single parent, and being a young woman who is everything that he’s against.

        Even with the Nazis, I could see Disney making a movie like this.

        Especially that she’s becoming a rather loud voice of reason (and against her biodad), and that voice is amplified by sole fact of having half his chromosomes.

          It would be neat if Vivian becomes President AOC’s successor. Here’s hoping we shift tracks onto that timeline.

            It would…but I think the union would shatter first. We’ve never even had a white AFAB president.

          Eh maybe you used to, now they’ve swung hard in the opposite direction. Cancelling their LGBT projects and doing Christian ones instead to try to win back the Right.

          It’s gonna flop, that ship sailed ages ago… and they’re still doing shit like Live Action Snow White

        If he’s abusive, she was maybe a target for it. Gender queer kids often get targeted by the perp cos they’re different.
