Vivian Jenna Wilson, Elon Musk’s transgender daughter, pushed back against a claim from the billionaire that all of his “boys” – including her – were happy throughout their childhood.
Musk wrote a post on X in reply to someone posting an old video of him with family members. “Nothing is more important than family,” the person wrote.

“All 5 boys super happy,” Musk replied. One of the kids in the video, though, was Wilson, who is not a boy.
“Look, I don’t know if you genuinely believe this or if you live in your own delusional fantasy land and frankly, I don’t care. It seems to me like you’re trying to rebuild your brand image as the ‘caring paternal father’ which I will not let go unchallenged,” she said on her Threads account. “If I’m going to be honest, this is absolutely pathetic. You just won’t stop lying about me in interviews, books, social media, etc. Thank god you’re absolutely terrible at it because otherwise this would be significantly more difficult.”
She then criticized his portrayal of her as a far-left “neomarxist/communst,” something she thought to be absurd.
“If you’re going to lie about me, why would you choose a method so obnoxious in its stupidity. It’s beyond stupid, it’s desperate. The fact anyone believed this for even five seconds is beyond me. Not to mention going out of your way to misgender me which is both completely transparent and honestly just sad.”
Wilson continued to call him a “serial adulterer” who “won’t stop lying about his children.” She alleged that he has never stepped foot inside of a church, contrary to his claims of being Christian, and that he once called Arabic “the language of the enemy.” She also brought up his early life in Apartheid South Africa and the current lawsuits against him for alleged discrimination.
Wilson then criticized his handling of climate change and space exploration, saying, “You are not ‘saving the planet,’ you do not give a f**k about climate change and you’re lying about multi-planetary civilization as both an excuse, and because you want to seem like the CEO from Ready Player One.”
She finally touched on his far-right views, referencing the infamous “14 words” that are used by white nationalists to call for a white ethnostate.
Wilson has been feuding with Musk as of late after he made claims in a viral interview with right-wing psychologist Jordan Peterson that she was “dead” because of the “woke mind virus.” Since then, she’s been pushing back on his claims about her, including his claim that he was “tricked” into supporting her transition, something she rebukes.
“You single-handedly disillusioned me with how gullible we are as a species because somehow people keep believing you for reasons that continue to evade me,” Wilson concluded.
