Elon Musk’s transgender daughter Vivian Wilson reveals estrangement from the X founder

In a sprawling two-hour live chat on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday, Jordan Peterson and Elon Musk discussed various subjects, including Christian imagery and the "carnivore diet."

However, the most controversy arose from Musk's comments about his estranged transgender daughter, Vivian Wilson, whom he deadnamed and misgendered several times.

Now, 20-year-old Wilson has started to share her perspective on the situation.

“There’s a lot of stuff I need to debunk which I will get to don’t worry, but I want to start with what I find the funniest which is the notorious ‘slightly autistic’ tweet,” Wilson wrote in a post on her Threads account, sharing a screenshot of the Musk tweet with her deadname covered up.

“This is entirely fake,” Wilson wrote in another post. 

“Like, literally none of this ever happened. Ever. I don’t even know where he got this from. My best guess is that he went to the Milo [Yiannopoulos] school of gay stereotypes, just picked some at random and said ‘eh- good enough’ in a last-ditch attempt to garner sympathy points when he is so obviously in the wrong even in his own fucking story.”  (Yiannopoulos is a right-wing provocateur who claims to be "ex-gay" and views homosexuality as "an addiction.")

In a follow-up post, Wilson stated: “I want to make one thing absolutely clear. I disowned him, not the other way around.” 

When she legally changed her name and gender in 2022, she informed a California court that she wanted no connection to Musk “in any way, shape or form.” 

By then, Musk had already criticized preferred pronouns on Twitter and indicated he might back Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who signed the controversial "Don't Say Gay" law that year, if he ran for president in 2024.
