Summary

Vivian Jenna Wilson, Elon Muskā€™s daughter, accused her father of giving a ā€œdefinitely Nazi saluteā€ at two rallies in January, calling his actions ā€œfucking cringe.ā€

In an interview with Teen Vogue, she criticized Muskā€™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 Trumpā€™s administration.

    The way you avoid saying ā€œdaughterā€ and ā€œherā€ makes it clear that you donā€™t understand her or her opinion.

    Also, it was a Nazi salute. The first time I saw it, I was watching the actual video and not a GIF. He wants deniability so people who donā€™t like Nazis will be gaslit and people that do like Nazis will praise him.

      I avoided calling them anything other than his child because I donā€™t know anything about his kids or that situation.

        The title says daughter. How else would you have known sheā€™s ā€œhis childā€? You are still going out of your way to say ā€œthemā€ now. Elon has many children, but this article is specifically about his daughterā€™s statements, not his other children.

        If you arenā€™t going to bother to be specific or accurate, why post at all? Are you posting your disingenuous comments in an attempt to unconditionally defend Musk, or are you just a troll? Iā€™m just asking questions.

          I can see that the trans issue is a touchy subject for you, but thatā€™s not what Iā€™m discussing here. So please donā€™t take offense.
