Washington: Tesla CEO Elon Musk in his latest interviews made some shocking claims that one of his sons was "figuratively dead," after the billionaire was tricked into giving consent for his child to undergo puberty blockers.

The claim by one of the richest men in the world was made during an interview with Dr Jordan Peterson when asked about his thoughts on doctors performing sex change procedures on his kids.

Describing the whole practice as "evil," Musk said, "I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys... This was before I had really any understanding of what was going on."

He added, "I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys... This was before I had really any understanding of what was going on."

Furthermore, the billionaire said that he was told that his son 'Xavier' might commit suicide if he didn't, to which Peterson interjected by saying, "That was a lie right from the outset."

Musk insisted that he wasn’t explained what those 'puberty blockers' are. He said that he did not realise that those blockers were "actually just sterilization drugs" when he gave his consent for his son to undergo the treatment.

He said that it was called "gender-affirming care," which he remarked was a "terrible euphemism."

Musk Vows to Destroy 'Woke-Mind’ Virus

Following this horrifying incident, Musk vowed to destroy the 'woke mind virus.'

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

After an extended pause, he added, "I vowed to destroy the woke mind virus after that."

This isn't the first time when Musk called the ‘woke mind virus’ a threat to modern civilisation. Musk earlier hinted that it was this virus that prompted him to buy Twitter, now called X, for $44 billion in April 2022.

Additionally, Musk’s plan to take on the 'woke virus' which left likely inspired his latest decision to move the California headquarters for SpaceX to Texas. This decision came after Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill into law that will bar school districts from notifying parents if their child uses different pronouns or identifies as a gender that’s different from what’s on school records.

In a post on X, explaining his decision to a user, Musk said, "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," he added.
