The 20-year-old, who is transgender, made the accusations on Threads, a social media platform owned by Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta.

Vivian accused the Tesla CEO of not being a Christian, claiming he doesn't care about climate change, and alleging he is dishonest about his Mars colonization plans. She also highlighted multiple discrimination lawsuits against Musk and stated he once referred to Arabic as "the language of the enemy."

In her post, Vivian wrote: "I understand your new angle is this 'western values/christian family man' thing, but it’s such a weird choice. You are not a family man; you are a serial adulterer who won’t stop lying about your own children. You are not a Christian, as far as I’m aware, you’ve never stepped foot in a church. You are not some 'bastion for equality/progress.'"

She further criticized her father, saying, "You called Arabic the 'language of the enemy' when I was six, have been sued for discrimination multiple times, and are from Apartheid South Africa."

Vivian also questioned Musk's environmental commitment, writing: "You are not 'saving the planet,' you do not care about climate change, and you’re lying about multi-planetary civilization as both an excuse and because you want to seem like the CEO from Ready Player One."

She expressed skepticism about Musk’s views on population growth, saying: "I would mention the birth rate stuff, but I am not touching that weird 14-words breeder thing with a ten-foot pole. You single-handedly disillusioned me with how gullible we are as a species because somehow people keep believing you for reasons that continue to evade me."

The South African billionaire has reportedly fathered 12 children over the past 22 years with three different women: Canadian author Justine Wilson (Vivian's mother), musician Grimes, and his employee Shivon Zilis. His youngest child with Zilis was born in 2024.

Earlier this year, Tesla settled a long-running lawsuit by a Black former factory worker who alleged racial harassment, the New York Times reported.

Owen Diaz, a former elevator operator at Tesla’s California assembly plant, received an undisclosed settlement from his former employer.

In his 2017 lawsuit, Diaz claimed that African American employees at the factory were frequently subjected to racial slurs and derogatory imagery.

A jury awarded him $3.2 million in damages last year, although a previous jury awarded him $137 million in 2021, one of the largest verdicts ever in a discrimination case involving a single worker.

A judge found that verdict excessive and ordered a second trial after Diaz rejected a reduced award of $15 million.

Diaz alleged that he was subjected to racial slurs, swastikas, and other racist conduct at the plant and that Tesla ignored his complaints.

The company faces similar allegations of racial bias at the plant in a pending class action involving 6,000 workers. Tesla has denied wrongdoing in these cases.

Vivian and Musk have been publicly feuding on social media after Musk claimed he was misled into allowing Vivian to take puberty blockers.

Referring to Vivian with male pronouns and by her birth name, Musk claimed she was "killed by the woke mind virus."

Vivian rebutted this claim last month, disputing a tweet from Musk in which he stated she was born "gay and slightly autistic."

Musk had said he knew from a young age that she was gay, recalling how she would pick out clothes for him and express enthusiasm for musicals.

Vivian refuted these claims, arguing her father fabricated them as he was not present during her childhood. She accused Musk of relentlessly harassing her for her "femininity and queerness."

Vivian also emphasized her legal recognition as a woman in California and accused her father of seeking "attention and validation." Their strained relationship has seen Musk label her a "communist" who believes "anyone rich is evil."

In an interview, Musk described his family’s experiences as "evil," saying, "I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys. This was really before I had any understanding of what was going on, and we had COVID happening, so there was a lot of confusion. I was told Xavier might commit suicide."

Discussing gender dysphoria, Musk stated: "It's incredibly evil, and I agree with you that the people promoting this should go to prison.

"I was tricked into doing this. It wasn't explained to me that puberty blockers are actually just sterilization drugs. I lost my son, essentially.

"They call it 'deadnaming' for a reason. The reason they call it 'deadnaming' is because your son is dead, so my son, Xavier, is dead, killed by the woke mind virus." Deadnaming is when a transgender person is referred to by their pre-transition name.

Musk claimed his right-wing political shift was driven by this experience and the "trickery" he alleges was used against him. He vowed to combat the "woke mind virus" and claimed to be making progress.

In 2022, Vivian legally changed her gender to female and her name to Vivian Jenna Wilson, revealing in court filings that she "no longer wishes to be related" to Musk "in any way."

She filed the petition just three days after her 18th birthday, though the court documents weren’t publicized until the day after Father’s Day.

Vivian reportedly came out as transgender via text to her aunt at age 16, asking her to keep her gender identity secret from her father.
