In reply to the discussion: Everyone has an Achilles heel. What is Musk's? [View all]sop
(11,544 posts)"Wilson said that, for as long as she could remember, Musk hasnt been a supportive father. She said he was rarely present in her life, leaving her and her siblings to be cared for by their mother or by nannies even though Musk had joint custody, and she said Musk berated her when he was present."
'He was cold,' she said. 'Hes very quick to anger. He is uncaring and narcissistic.'"
"Wilson said that, when she was a child, Musk would harass her for exhibiting feminine traits and pressure her to appear more masculine, including by pushing her to deepen her voice as early as elementary school."
I was in fourth grade. We went on this road trip that I didnt know was actually just an advertisement for one of the cars I dont remember which one and he was constantly yelling at me viciously because my voice was too high, she said. It was cruel.
'I no longer live with or wish to be related to my biological father in any way, shape or form,' she said in the court filing."
"Musk threw a spotlight on Wilson on Monday by speaking about their relationship in a video interview with psychologist and conservative commentator Jordan Peterson streamed live on X, saying he didnt support Wilsons gender identity."
'I lost my son, essentially,' Musk said. He used Wilsons birth name, also known as a deadname for transgender people, and said she was 'dead, killed by the woke mind virus.'"
"And in a post on X, Musk said Monday that Wilson was 'born gay and slightly autistic' and that, at age 4, she fit certain gay stereotypes, such as loving musicals and using the exclamation 'fabulous!' to describe certain clothing. Wilson told NBC News that the anecdotes arent true, though she said she did act stereotypically feminine in other ways as a child."
"In recent years, Musk has taken a hard-right turn into conservative politics and has been waging a campaign against transgender people and policies designed to support them. This month, he said he was pulling his businesses out of California to protest a new state law that bars schools from requiring that trans kids be outed to their parents."
"On X, Musk has for years criticized transgender rights, including medical treatments for trans-identifying minors, and the use of pronouns if they are different from what would be used at birth. He has promoted anti-trans content and called for arresting people who provide trans care to minors."
"Musk told Peterson that Wilsons gender transition has been the motivation for his push into conservative politics."

Vivian Jenna Wilson has been speaking out about her father lately. Maybe she'll be more public about her father's bizarre personality now that he's president, like Mary Trump.
