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.

Newsmax Host Epically Blasted For His Hypocrisy After Defending Trump's Profane Easter Tweet

Newsmax host Greg Kelly defended President Donald Trump's use of profanity in his Easter morning threat to Iran, prompting critics to resurface one of his own past tweets calling for a ban on use of the f-word.

Trump lashed out at Iran amid growing concerns about tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow passage at the entrance to the Persian Gulf that carries roughly 20% of the world’s oil supply. Recently, Iran has struck several vessels in the area and warned ships against entering the passage, effectively halting traffic through one of the world’s most crucial energy routes.

MAGA Politicians Called Out After Falling For AI-Generated Photo Of U.S. Airmen Rescue In Iran

At least two Republican politicians are facing criticism after they fell for a clearly A.I.-generated photo of the rescue of two U.S. airmen whose fighter jet went down in Iran over the weekend.

U.S. special forces rescued the second crew member of an F-15 fighter jet shot down over Iran, according to three U.S. officials cited by Axios. The crew member, a weapons systems officer, was wounded after ejecting from the aircraft Friday but was able to walk and evaded capture in the mountains for more than a day.
