The same day Vivian Jenna Wilson, Elon Musk's estranged daughter, published her second-ever interview with a media outlet, the billionaire media mogul used his X platform to insinuate trans people are behind reports of attacks on Teslas.
Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, recently made controversial comments linking transgender individuals to attacks on Tesla vehicles, coinciding with an interview his estranged daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, gave to Teen Vogue. In the interview, Vivian, who is transgender, discussed her strained relationship with her father, criticizing his views and actions, particularly his stance on transgender issues. Musk's comments came in response to a video showing a Tesla being vandalized, where he suggested that the vandalism might be motivated by Tesla's stance on transgender issues, despite no evidence linking the two. This incident has sparked discussions on social media and among Tesla shareholders about Musk's leadership and his personal views influencing corporate matters. Vivian's interview highlighted her journey of self-discovery and her decision to distance herself from her father, reflecting broader themes of identity, acceptance, and family dynamics in the public eye.
