Summary

Elon Musk’s estranged transgender daughter, Vivian Wilson, announced her intention to leave the U.S. after Donald Trump’s 2024 election win, citing concerns over anti-trans sentiment and her lack of a future in the country.

Vivian, who legally separated from Musk in 2022, has openly criticized him, labeling him a “serial adulterer.”

Musk, a prominent Trump supporter who donated heavily to his campaign, has expressed regret over her gender transition, claiming he was “tricked” into supporting puberty blockers.

Meanwhile, Musk has purchased a $35 million compound in Austin, Texas, where he plans to house his children and their mothers.

      Assuming he’s only actually married to one person, it’s just adultery, which is mostly legal.

      Of course, that assumes everyone is there consensually, and is free to leave whenever.

        I doubt they would be free to leave now that Vivian is out there badmouthing him. And considering the way he treated Vivian, they will be neglected and verbally abused.

      It’s actually not legal in Utah! The Mormon church yielded after a lot of pressure regarding the practice and Utah then made it illegal.

        Yes, outlawing polygamy was one of the concessions for statehood. The church later claimed it was never actually a commandment and condemned anyone still practicing it (publicly).

          “Publicly” is doing a lot of work there. Happened under the table a lot through the early 1900s.

          Also, even in mainstream LDS, there is polygamy in the afterlife. Women can only get sealed to one husband, if they die or get divorced their husband can be sealed again, and will get all of his spirit wives back in the afterlife. I think women who die unmarried get passed out as well, although some of them get husbands that fought valiantly in the pre-existence or something but weren’t born.
