Elon Musk Slammed For Ultra-Creepy Reaction To Taylor Swift Endorsing Kamala Harris

The X owner has the internet creeped out after mocking the singer by telling her 'I'll give you a child and guard your cats with my life' after she endorsed Harris and branded herself a 'childless cat lady.'

As you may have heard, Taylor Swift finally endorsed Kamala Harris moments after the end of her first debate with Donald Trump—and Elon Musk couldn't help but be skin-crawlingly weird about it.

In her post endorsing Harris and running mate Tim Walz, Swift referenced one of Donald Trump's running mate JD Vance's most enduring gaffes in which he derided Democratic women as "childless cat ladies."


Swift jokingly signed her post: "With love and hope, Taylor Swift, Childless Cat Lady."


This quip prompted Musk to post a truly creepy tweet that attempted to degrade Swift with weird sexual rhetoric while also throwing red meat at his legion of slavering far-right fanboys.

Musk's tweet read:

"Fine Taylor … you win … I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life."

The insinuation that having Musk's child is some kind of honor is weird and gross on its face, and to the uninitiated the tweet likely sounds like just garden variety misogyny.

But it's likely meant as a sort of dog-whistle, as Musk has become one of the poster boys of the far-right natalist movement obsessed with virility, reproduction and eugenics, and for whom degrading women is a badge of honor.

Musk is often held up as an icon in this culture precisely because he has at least 12 children by multiple women, as well as some rumored additional kids he allegedly does not acknowledge.

It's also worth noting that, until she began speaking out about politics, Swift was long held up as the ideal "Aryan goddess" on far-right message boards, Neo-Nazi websites and the like.

Even without all that background, though, the tweet is deeply off-putting, to say the least.

And on X, basically anyone NOT affiliated with Musk's weird far-right rhetoric found his Taylor Swift post downright creepy.








Stay classy, Elon.

Trump Dragged After Making Ridiculous Claim About Randomly Finding Billions On The 'Tariff Shelf'

President Donald Trump was criticized after he claimed to reporters this week that officials in his administration suddenly found $30 billion they "never knew existed"—located on what Trump referred to as the "tariff shelf."

Tariffs are a tax on imported goods, usually calculated as a percentage of the purchase price. While tariffs can shield domestic manufacturers by making foreign products more expensive, they are also used as a tool to penalize countries engaged in unfair trade practices, such as government subsidies or dumping goods below market value.

Bride's Friends Surprise Her With Montage Video Of All Her Exes At Bachelorette Party—And People Are Mortified

While Jenny Han's novel To All the Boys I've Loved Before was a major hit, and even became a great film success in 2018, not everyone's married to the idea of reconnecting with their exes after the relationships end.

It might be nice to imagine staying friends after the relationships, imagining our exes missing us or regretting losing us, or even giving us an apology for the things they did wrong. But most of us pine for this for a little while, realize it's all a fairy tale, and push past it to better things and new love.
