CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk, sat down with psychologist Jordan Peterson and talked about Trump, the woke mind virus, SpaceX, and Musk’s son, who is transgender.
In the interview, Peterson discussed Musk’s recent move to relocate SpaceX’s headquarters from California after Governor Gavin Newsom signed Assembly Bill 1955, which “allows schools to refrain from notifying parents of their child’s sexuality or gender identity.”
The topic got Musk to share a personal story on how “woke ideology” has hurt his son.
Musk stated, “It happened to one of my older boys, where I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys, Xavier.”
“So I lost my son essentially. They call it dead naming for a reason. The reason it’s called dead naming is because your son is dead. So my son Xavier is dead, killed by the woke mind virus,” added Musk.

Here’s what The Daily Caller reported:
Billionaire Elon Musk opened up Monday about his biological son coming out as transgender, telling prominent Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson that his son was “killed by the woke mind virus.”
During the discussion hosted by Peterson, the psychologist brought up Musk’s recent move to pull his company’s headquarters, SpaceX, from California after Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom signed the new Assembly Bill 1955, which allows schools to refrain from notifying parents of their child’s sexuality or gender identity. Musk explained his decision on the move, leading to Peterson questioning him on why he was willing to make “gender affirming care” an “issue.”
“It happened to one of my older boys, where I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys, Xavier. This was before I really had any understanding of what was going on. We had COVID going on,” Musk said. “I was told Xavier might commit suicide.”
“That was a lie right from the outset,” Peterson responded. “No reliable clinician ever believed that. There was never any evidence for that, and also if there’s a higher suicide rate, the reason is because the underlying depression and anxiety, not because of the gender dysphoria. And every goddamn clinician knows that.”
Peterson continued to call out clinicians, stating he couldn’t “imagine anything worse” for a parent.
Elon Musk claims he was misled by professionals into signing documents for his son Xavier’s gender transition.
Elon vowed to destroy the woke mind virus after what he went thru with his son.

Per Fox News:
Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said he was “tricked” into giving consent for his child to go on puberty blockers, adding that he believes “the woke mind virus” figuratively killed his son.
Musk made the comment in an interview with Dr. Jordan Peterson on Monday after he was asked about his thoughts on doctors performing sex change procedures on children, a practice both Musk and Peterson described as “evil.” Musk said that his experience with his child Xavier, who now goes by Vivian Jenna Wilson, opened his eyes to what he called “the woke mind virus,” which he has since vowed to “destroy.”
“It happened to one of my older boys, where I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys, Xavier. This is before I had any understanding of what was going on. COVID was going on, so there was a lot of confusion and I was told Xavier might commit suicide if he doesn’t…” Musk told Peterson.
