Elon Musk urged his 250 million followers to boycott Netflix over its LGBTQ+ storylines.
He accused the streaming service of pushing “woke bias” that harms children’s wellbeing.
Musk specifically attacked the animated show Dead End: Paranormal Park, which features a transgender character named Barney.
Social Media Posts Escalate Dispute
Musk reposted a meme comparing Netflix to a Trojan horse entering children’s lives.
He declared, “Cancel Netflix for the health of your kids,” in a widely shared post.
He also reposted a clip from Libs of TikTok, adding the remark, “this is not ok.”
Musk’s History With Trans Issues
Musk has repeatedly voiced controversial views about transgender representation and identity.
He publicly clashed with his daughter Vivian after her transition, calling her treatment “sterilization.”
Although in 2020 he claimed support for trans people, he dismissed pronouns as “an aesthetic nightmare.”
Netflix has not yet commented, but the company has often defended its right to free expression.
