In a recent interview with Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson, tech tycoon Elon Musk revealed that he was “deceived” when allowing his son to be given puberty blockers. This personal experience has led him to a determined campaign against what he calls the “woke virus.”

During a two-hour conversation on The Daily Wire, Musk and Peterson discussed the gender ideology and its implications. Musk did not hesitate to describe the “”attention to gender affirmation” as a euphemism for “child mutilation and sterilization,” and called these procedures “evil.”

Elon Musk shared his painful personal experience, explaining that Xavier, one of his older children, was put on puberty blockers during a gender transition. According to Musk, this happened in the midst  of the confusion caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. “Basically, they deceived me to make me sign documents for one of my older children,” said Musk. “They told me that Xavier might commit suicide if he didn’t get [puberty blockers”].

Peterson intervened, pointing out that the threat of suicide used to justify puberty blockers is a lie. “No reliable doctor has ever believed that,” said Peterson. “The reason for a higher suicide rate is underlying depression and anxiety, not gender dysphoria. And all doctors know it.”

Musk expressed his frustration and sadness over the lack of information he was given by the doctors. “In essence, I lost my son,” he said with obvious sadness. “My son Xavier is dead, killed by the virus of the progressive mind.” This experience has motivated Musk to promote the destruction of what he calls the “virus of the progressive mind.”

In response to a new law in California, which prohibits public schools from notifying parents about the gender confusion of a child, Musk has decided to move his X and SpaceX business headquarters to Texas. This move underscores his commitment to fight against policies that, according to him, harm children and undermine parental authority.

Musk and Peterson agreed that individuals and professionals that promote and facilitate these practices should be held to account. “It’s incredibly evil,” said Musk. “And I agree with you that people that have promoted this should go to prison.

The interview has sparked intense debate on the ethics of gender affirmation treatments, and parents’ role in such crucial medical decisions for their children.
