Summary
Vivian Jenna Wilson, Elon Musk’s daughter, accused her father of giving a “definitely Nazi salute” at two rallies in January, calling his actions “fucking cringe.”
In an interview with Teen Vogue, she criticized Musk’s involvement in the Trump administration and advocated for trans rights, emphasizing the importance of gender-affirming care for minors.
Wilson, who transitioned as a teen, described Musk as cold and absent, and revealed she no longer associates with him or his family.
She also expressed fear over anti-trans legislation under Trump’s administration.
Are you suggesting that a kid doesn’t have any insight into their parent’s behavior and that “experts” do?

No, I’m saying she’s not an historian specialized in Nazi Germany.
And you think that’s required for recognizing a Nazi salute? That’s whack.
No, I’m saying that all experts agree it is so her opinion doesn’t matter.

You should work on your reading comprehension.
All experts agree it is a Nazi salute, we don’t need the opinion of people who have no expertise on the subject, even if they’re somewhat related to Musk (considering how he wasn’t involved as a father it’s not as if her opinion of him is based on anything but his public persona).
So if we scoured your comment history, we won’t find you weighing your opinion in on things that you are not an expert in, right?
The difference is that my opinion doesn’t get shared by The Guardian as if it was of any importance.
For good reason. But unlike you, she is relevant.
You don’t need to be to see it was not one but two nazi salutes
You don’t, but her opinion is useless when all experts already agree that’s what it was.
It’s like asking actors their political opinion. Who gives a fuck what they think? They’re actors, not political analysts.
And yet, here you are with your opinion that no one asked for. Are you seeing how this works yet?
So you’re saying my opinion is just as important as hers, she gets to share hers, I get to share mine, will The Guardian write an article about my opinion now? Are you seeing how this works yet?
No, I’m saying she is relevant to the story. You aren’t. Yet here you are trying to erase her from it, while adding yourself to it- via the comments.
Yell all you want. She’s still going to have her say in legitimate news articles, while you’re relegated to ranting about it in forums located in the far reaches of the internet.
Musk was absent from her life, the only reason people talk about her is because she’s her daughter even though she doesn’t know him any better than you and me.
And again, her opinion on what constitutes a Nazi salute or not is irrelevant, just like a hockey player’s opinion on climate change isn’t.
…. And you are?
