On Monday (22nd July, US local time), American billionaire Elon Musk narrated how he ‘lost’ his son Xavier and vowed to destroy the woke mind virus.
During an interview with renowned psychologist Jordan Peterson, Musk recounted, “I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys, Xavier.” The Tesla CEO pointed out that he was misled into opting for puberty blockers for his son.
“This was before I had really any understanding of what was going on, and we had COVID going on, and so there was a lot of confusion. And, you know, I was told Xavier might commit suicide if he didn’t. That was a lie right from the outset?” he emphasised.

Musk added, “Incredibly evil, and I agree with you that people that have been promoting this should go to prison. So I was tricked into doing this, and it wasn’t explained to me that puberty blockers are actually just sterilization drugs.”
“So I lost my son, essentially. They call it deadnaming for a reason. So the reason it’s called deadnaming is because your son is dead. So my son Xavier is dead, killed by the woke mind virus,” he lamented.
“Yeah, and there (are) lots of people in that situation now. It’s not pretty, and (there are) lots of demolished kids. Well, that’s a good reason to be the final straw. So I vowed to destroy the woke mind virus after that, and we’re making some progress,” the Tesla CEO concluded.
The Background of the Controversy
In June 2022, Elon Musk’s son Xavier Alexander Musk announced that he identified as a ‘woman.’ The 18-year-old re-christened himself as ‘Vivian Jenna Wilson’ and decided to cut ties with his father.
While Xavier is not physically ‘dead’, Musk lost his son to what he described as the ‘woke mind virus’. He had blamed the elite school, where Xavier studied, for brainwashing him.
“(Xavier) became a fervent Marxist and broke off all relations with me…He went beyond socialism to being a full communist and thinking that anyone rich is evil…I have made many overtures, but he doesn’t want to spend time with me,” Musk stated.
It must be mentioned that the Tesla CEO has been vocal against the imposition of pronouns and woke culture
