Tesla CEO Elon Musk believes his estranged transgender child was “killed by the woke mind virus” after he was tricked into giving his consent for puberty blockers.

The 53-year-old billionaire vowed to “destroy” the “incredibly evil” culture that allows the gender reassignment surgery that his 20-year-old child Vivian Jenna Wilson, who was born Xavier, got in 2022.

“I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys, Xavier,” the X owner told psychologist Dr. Jordan Peterson in a Daily Wire interview.

“This is before I had any understanding of what was going on. COVID was going on, so there was a lot of confusion and I was told Xavier might commit suicide if he doesn’t…

Peterson suggested it “was a lie right from the outset” because there was no clinical evidence to support the claim.

“It’s incredibly evil, and I agree with you that the people that have been promoting this should go to prison,” Musk stated firmly.

Musk said it was never explained to him that the puberty blockers were “actually just sterilization drugs.”

“I was tricked into doing this,” Musk said.

“I lost my son, essentially. They call it ‘deadnaming’ for a reason. The reason they call it ‘deadnaming’ is because your son is dead. My son, Xavier, is dead — killed by the woke mind virus.”

The SpaceX founder — who boasts a net worth of nearly $200 billion — said he was making it his mission to stamp out the gender reassignment procedure for kids in the wake of his child’s transition.

“I vowed to destroy the woke mind virus after that,” he said. “And we’re making some progress.”

Vivian, one of six kids Musk shares with his ex-wife Justine Wilson, made headlines in 2022 when she petitioned a California court to change her name and gender.

In the court filing, she also requested to take her mother’s last name to lose any association with her famous father, saying she “no longer lives with or wishes to be related to my biological father in any way, shape or form.”

Musk’s remarks come just days after it emerged he was relocating his SpaceX and X headquarters from California to Texas over a law signed by California Gov. Gavin Newsom that bans school districts from requiring parents to be notified if a child starts using different pronouns.

“This is the final straw. Because of this law and the many others that preceded it, attacking both families and companies, SpaceX will now move its HQ from Hawthorne, California to Starbase, Texas,” Musk posted on X.

“I did make it clear to Governor Newsom about a year ago that laws of this nature would force families and companies to leave California to protect their children,” he added.
