The comments came in response to a video of Minnesota Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan claiming the definition of being a “good parent” is believing them when they say they identify as the opposite sex.
Tweeting under a video of Flanagan, Musk wrote, “Not when they’re fed propaganda by adults. Moreover, every child goes through an identity crisis before their personality/identity crystallizes. Therefore, we shouldn’t allow severe, irreversible surgery or sterilizing drugs that they may regret until at least age 18.”
Musk, who has a son now identifying as a woman, made the remark about a week after Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) signed an executive order turning the state into a “refuge” for people to undergo “transgender” surgeries and take sterilization drugs and to protect doctors prescribing them.
