Musk, in reply to a user then, also said that he hopes the streaming giant would make more science fiction movies. “Can they please just make sci-fi/fantasy at least *mostly* about sci-fi/fantasy?” he tweeted.

In an interview last year, Musk said that the woke mind virus killed his son, referring to his son Xavier, now known as Vivian Jenna Wilson. He then shared his concern about using puberty blockers in children and said he felt he was “tricked” into agreeing to his son’s sex change.
