Twitter and Tesla CEO Elon Musk posted a strong message online Friday, slamming parents and doctors who sterilize children via sex change surgeries or hormone therapies before they’re of age to make the decision.
Musk’s Twitter comment came in response to a tweet by “The Redheaded Libertarian,” who mocked MSNBC for attacking GOP Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ anti-child sex change policies.
MSNBC claimed, “DeSantis’ desperation for power is destroying an entire state.”
Responding to the notion that DeSantis simply doesn’t want children undergoing sex changes, Musk chimed in, “Any parent or doctor who sterilizes a child before they are a consenting adult should go to prison for life.”
The remark predictably caused a stir online among liberals while many conservative and libertarian political commentators voiced their agreement with Musk’s stance.
Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton wrote, “No patient (child/guardian or adult) can truly give informed consent to radical mutilating procedures and experimental hormone treatments promoted by transgender extremists. That these procedures may be allowed by law or medical bodies is an urgent failure that must be addressed.”
Rapper and political activist Hi-Rez pointed out the U.S. sex reassignment surgery market is set to hit $10 billion in the next few years.
Anti-gender transition activist Oli London thanked Musk for sharing his voice “to protect children,” adding, “Your words will help many people wake up and see the irreparable harm medical transitions on minors is doing.”
Some Twitter users even deployed spicy memes to relay their opposition to child sex changes.
Musk continues irritating the mainstream establishment by interjecting controversial thoughts into political dialogue and allowing an open debate on his newly purchased platform Twitter.
