He really cannot handle the fact his daughter wants a life that has nothing to do with him. (not to mention Grimes taking up with Chelsea Manning after she left musk.

Add to that his creepy breeding fetish...

I especially like your comment about Chelsea Manning.Once Upon a time Musk hearing about that bit disturbing news,his head probably launched straight into space without a rocket.There is something strangely erotic about the betrayal and humiliation to musk thinking about and visualizing His old Grimes and a trans woman bumping Nasties.

"creepy breeding fetish"

Is he Hideo Kojima?

*chuckle*. Not quite. But Elon and his dad have this belief that "smart people need to breed" (Elon) and "Our purpose here is to reproduce" (his dad). Elon has 13, I think his dad has 7, but 2 of those are by his former stepdaughter (who he raised since she was four, and yeah, creepy as hell)

...when you have enough money to just write a check and single-handedly obliterate any major societal problem of your choosing, but you're mad at your kid for telling you to get fucked so you use it to be a spiteful, bigoted asshole instead.

There are at least 4 to 5 Anti-Sherrod Brown ads in Ohio that use transphobic language Ex: "Biological Men is girls' sports, in girls' locker rooms." They claim surgeries for children are happening, make false claims regarding puberty blockers. Snarky-lookin' "mom" and "dad" figures do all the spewing. The Senate Leadership Fund is responsible for these.

I've written to the 3 major stations airing these hate-ads and given them chapter and verse as to why this stuff is wrong. Followed up, with them too, and got no response.

Which trans-supportive groups should be contacted which can quickly put a stop to this and hold the Senate Leadership Fund accountable? (I realize that Heritage and ADF, plus others are the root of this)

What else can I do here to fight this? I already post tons of trans-supportive links on FB and contribute articles and new data to my adopted daughter Jolene's FB group "Trans Humanity". Anyone here who is on FB could join Trans Humanity and help with the fight there. Tell the moderators there that Papa Dave sent you.

Anything else that one little paisan in Cleveland can do?

That is so disheartening; the harm ads like that do to kids who see them is very real. I wish I had an answer. It would be nice if medical associations visibly and loudly pushed back on harmful misinformation, but I suspect money speaks louder than ethics to the tv stations. Maybe personally showing up (or make an appointment) and actually walking into the station director’s office holding the recent stats on suicide ideation/attempt increases in directly relating to anti-trans legislation and rhetoric might make an impression.

Ya know, I could do that…Walk into a TV station here (With my notebook full of data that I should be studying more) and complain to the station manager. I have some of my family here that would love to do that with me. If I could pull that off…..Hmm. You might hear some noise coming from the direction of Cleveland soon.

A cautionary tale: The cursed spell of transphobia This is some bad mojo,creating living hells for some. Look at Famous beloved children’s author J.K. Rowling rich beyond belief, living in a castle in possession of the means to live any life she chooses.But instead and sadly, she in her high tower posting hateful texts about the evils of trans people, literally all day.It all Sounds like an SNL skit, but no this is really the life she has chosen.Elon Musk ask her at one point to chill with the trans posting. He too is not immune. He literally bought Twitter and lost in the neighborhood of 50 billion dollars.He believed twitter had made his daughter trans and now,this is his life.He would rather hate and loose a fortune than than love and respect his daughter’s decision to live authentically. So sad, even the stars must wait.He spends so much of his time being transphobic. Insanity is no respecter of gender

The "possession of the means to live any life she chooses" but also possessive of other people and what she expats them to be.

Didn't think I could dislike Musk more than I did, but so glad that us trans folks are getting the right to waste money on losing political battles! Thanks for your reporting Erin, this is a bright spot in my day 💝

Bad news, but Erin makes it worth it.

One would think that having a PAC and attempting to influence elections with massive monetary donations would make his companies ineligible to hold government contracts, and yet...

He owns a major defense contractor (SpaceX). Considering that we've fought multiple wars just because such companies wanted to pump up their quarterly reports, is it any surprise Muskrat can get away with whatever he wants to? He's in the same league as Lockheed-Martin and Raytheon, now. The only way he takes a fall is if 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘪𝘨 𝘎(tm) grows enough of a spine to nationalize his orbital launch capabilities.

Musk is also rabidly anti-socialist and anti-communist and a huge Trump supporter.

Musk and JD Vance's sugar daddy Peter Theil both grew up in Apartheid-era South Africa, and it shows.

Musk is pretty much anti-democracy too.

As an Ohioan, I can attest that horrible anti-trans ads are running constantly attacking Sherrod Brown. I don’t even engage with traditional media much, and still I see and hear the ads all the time. I am sick and tired of Republicans using trans kids as targets!!!

Just this week, an Ohio non-binary teen ran away from home to seek gender-affirming care out of state because HB68 outlawed and criminalized GAC for youth. Thankfully, the teen returned home safely, but what a nightmare that was for the family. These extremist Republican lies have real-life consequences that do real harm. (Look no farther than Springfield, OH and the 33 bomb threats that shut down schools and city buildings for days after Trump & Vance’s lies about Haitian immigrants.)
