Elon Musk’s transgender son, Vivian Jenna Wilson, who identifies as a female, has announced plan to leave the United States after the victory of Donald Trump in the Tuesday November 5 presidential election.
Wilson had spoken out against Trump and her father, with the latter throwing weight behind the president-elect and playing a vital role in getting him back into the White House.
“I’ve thought this for a while, but yesterday confirmed it for me. I don’t see my future being in the United States,” Wilson said on Threads on Wednesday.
“Even if he’s only in office for 4 years, even if the anti-trans regulations magically don’t happen, the people who willingly voted this in are not going anywhere anytime soon.”
In response, Musk reiterated his previous sentiments on X (formerly Twitter), stating, “The woke mind virus killed my son.”
The 20-year-old Wilson was born to Musk and his first wife, Justine Wilson, in 2004. Originally named Xavier, she came out as transgender in April 2022 and requested to legally change her gender and name to Vivian Jenna Wilson, adopting her mother’s maiden name.
Musk, who has 12 children from three different relationships, has openly criticised Wilson, labelling her a “communist” with an anti-wealth stance. The billionaire and world’s richest man who once claimed that Vivian was “kill3d by the woke mind virus,” said that he was “tricked” into signing documents allowing her to start puberty blockers, alleging that he was unaware of the situation’s depth amid COVID-19 disruptions.
Wilson who has been estranged from her father since 2022, accused him of transphobia, “cruelty,” and “serial” cheating. She said Musk would berate her for being more in touch with femininity as a child, urging her to make her voice deeper.
