Summary
Elon Musk blamed trans people for recent Tesla attacks after his daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, called him a “pathetic man-child.”
Musk shared false data on trans violence and claimed hormone therapy causes volatility. He linked trans identity to attacks on Tesla cars and dealerships, citing unverified reports of trans suspects.
Musk’s comments followed Wilson’s interview where she condemned his far-right shift and disavowed responsibility for his views.
Critics accused Musk of scapegoating trans people amid Tesla’s financial decline and political controversies.
That’s exactly what their motivation is.
a lot of people kill people for political reasons, doesn’t make that terrorism. There’s a specific branch of intentionally inciting terror with the use of violence FOR political means, that’s actually defined as terrorism.
Burning teslas at dealerships probably doesn’t count. Extorting people and threatening to kill them, might count.
