        You’re not wrong. Besides having a vague visual similarity, the character also carries its own symbolic association. In English, “X” is mystery, and the unknown. It’s a signature, or a mark. Thirty years ago, it was used frequently in marketing to connect with “eXtreme” sports culture.

        Musk thinks it’s the coolest letter because he’s a child.

          Musk is absolutely autistic. Nothing about him tells me he has normal thought patterns at all, so no point deciphering them.

          Does that mean he deserves a pass or pity for a disability - hell no. You can be disabled and still be an asshole.

            He might be autistic, but that’s not a diagnosis you can make just watching someone online. It’s also not helpful to discuss.

            We can tell though, that he’s a man-child, accustomed to being handed everything he wants, incapable of any introspection: all symptoms of extreme wealth

              He’s a classic internet edgelord. “Autistic” is the spin doctor code word for antisocial. To them the thinly veiled nazi references are the height of comedy. The overall theme is that they think they’re operating on a meta level such that everyone else isn’t in on the joke.

              I don’t think this is so much a wealth factor as much as it is right wing culture rot that plagues young men. Though obviously Elon isn’t young anymore but this culture dates back as old as he is. His fanboys love him because of all this. He is who they see in themselves. They are very smart but too lazy to achieve their potential because reasons. If only they had unlimited money they could beat the (((system))) that is conspires to oppress them for who they are. Namely being right leaning cis hetero white male.

              Money didn’t break him. Without money he’s just another of the millions of basement dwellers who would be fanboying over some other right wing oligarch.

          I mean if we go that route, then the following letters are also hate symbols. m,n,o,S,X and Z if paired with the number 13. Given the number of hate numbers listed by the ADL I’m surprised that the list isn’t longer but most of them are either too low or too high to align to an ASCII value for a letter.

            I’m not saying that the ascii table defines hate speech/letters. That’s slippery slope territory. I’m saying that it’s feasible that this particular fascist’s fascination with this particular letter may not be a coincidence.

            • He’s emotionally a child
            • He self-identifies as “techie”
            • He’s been trying to cram X into all of his projects since day one

            After those picture-perfect seig heils, and years of childish petulance broadcast to the world, yeah, I’m inclined to believe X has been “clever” code for HH all along.

    All this wealth he could be using to help humanity and this is his angle; To put down people who aren’t straight white fascist nazis.

    Elon’s Children

    • Vivian (20, f, IVF)
    • Griffin (20, m, IVF)
    • Kai (~19, m, IVF)
    • Saxon (~19, m, IVF)
    • Damian (~19, m, IVF)
    • X AE A-XII (5, m)
    • Exa Dark Sideræl (3, f)
    • Strider (3, m)
    • Azure (3, m)
    • Techno Mechanicus (2, m)
    • Arcadia (~1, ?)
    • ?? (a few months, ?)
    • Seldon Lycurgus (?, m)

    His first girl (not counting Vivian) was born in approx 2022. He has 14 kids, and they’re almost all male. This isn’t coincidence, especially since most of the early children were the result of IVF, where it’s possible to select the sex. This is part of why he’s so angry. He only wanted male children, he paid for male children, and one of his male children had the nerve to not be male in defiance of his wishes.

      Why does his naming conventions feel like he’s populating a Warhammer 40k fanfic? At first I was like “Well Vivian sounds normal” and then I remembered that she chose that name and her dead name (which fucking gross Elon posted) definitely fits the 40k paradigm.

        I would bet that the names he chose, at least the ones that aren’t “X” in some way (Xavier, Exa, X AE whatever) are probably white supremacist adjacent in some way, “Saxon” being an obvious one.

      A bit off-topic: In a darwinistic sense selecting only male offspring via in-vitro-fertilization is a bad strategy (by Elon). Females are more likely to propagate their genes than males on average, but Musk does not care?

      Wait, why is she in teen vogue if she’s 20?

      Also if he hadn’t IVF’d Vivian, she’d have been born the right gender, female. Her dysphoria is literally his fault.

        That’s not how ivf works. More likely she wouldn’t have been born at all because she would have had to compete with a few million sperm instead of being specifically chosen in a lab.

            It would literally be a different person. Totally different genetic stew. There might be some similarities, there’s the old nature vs nurture argument. I wouldn’t imagine a different person would take the same lessons from the same stimuli every single time though. It’s kind of like comparing you to your sibling. Youre not exactly the same I bet.

            Hell, even taking the same exact embryo and swapping the chromosomes so she was AFAB would create a different person. Growing up trans and making the hard choice to transition is part of who she is. If you take that away there would be a chain reaction of differences down the line.

        You don’t have to be a teenager to be featured in teen vogue. Just interesting to teenagers (and I can understand why Vivian has the spotlight on her).

        Also, that’s not how genetics work. Vivian is the result of that specific egg and sperm. She never would’ve been born with XX chromosomes. Someone else would’ve been born.

        If we want to laugh at Musk though, we can point out how the venn Diagramm of autistic people and trans people is practically a circle. Musk trying to select all “males” during IVF was always doomed to fail, especially the more kids he had. He’s so dumb and desparate for control he thought he could pick his kids’ identities through their very genetics.

        I hope Vivian has a kick ass life just the way she is. :)

              sigh I would argue correlation over causation. autistic people are generally less likely to care about societal conformity and be open about their gender variance and gender diverse people are more likely to seek out a diagnosis. one is unlikely to be causing the other.

              along with that, it’s largely irrelevant and this type of rhetoric only aids right wing peoples in labeling gender diversity as mental illness in need of treatment and/or demonization.

He goes out of his way constantly to make things worse for “the helpers” Mr. Rogers’ mother told us to look for (e.g. one of the heroes that saved all of those kids many years back that Elon baslessly labeled a “pedo” for literally no good reason.)
