six kids is a lot for any normal parent, it’s absurd to pretend that musk is any kind of actual father (in the parenting sense) of six children *in five years*, he’s a fucking deadbeat dad with money
I feel like deadbeat dad is probably a best case scenario for Elon Musk, but he's certainly doing a sorry job of demonstrating the virtue of his pronatalism
His current attempt at being publicly seen as a parent is almost certainly a deliberate "fuck you" to Grimes in their custody battle.
And I fully expect they'll get fobbed off full time to nannies & boarding schools only to see him a few times a year once that's over with.
Seems pretty obvious that Musk is a "refuses to use birth control guy" coupled with "shameless manipulator guy" in a way that we recognize isn't sexual assault but comes right up to that line.
Right and I feel like articles should honestly make this more apparent. I don’t want to shame reproductive technology (I use it myself!) but like, this is really weird what he’s doing with it
yeah, i wish they’d remove the verb father from it, because he’s more just donating sperm because he thinks he’s such a superior being that we need more like him
I feel like this framing of Musk as personally fighting the fertility crisis is strange.
Men aren’t the limiting factor here. Per women he’s barely beating replacement rate with a surprising number of multiples as well.
