Elon Musk’s Ambitious Plans for Parenting
Renowned billionaire and Trump ally, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has stirred controversy with his recent recruitment of potential mothers via his social media platform, X. According to reports, Musk is allegedly seeking to create a “legion” of children as a preparation for what he refers to as the “apocalypse.”
The mother of Musk’s youngest child, Ashley St. Clair, disclosed private conversations via text messages to the Wall Street Journal. In these messages, Musk elaborated on his intention to expand his family in anticipation of future crises. He stated, “To reach legion-level before the apocalypse, we will need to use surrogates.”
Recruitment via Social Media
Musk’s approach reportedly included soliciting women on his own platform to serve as potential surrogates. St. Clair suggested that the true number of Musk’s children remains unknown, as she claims he offered to buy her silence about his parenthood status.
In a notable correspondence from September 2024, Musk reached out to cryptocurrency influencer Tiffany Fong, who had recently begun posting content aligned with pro-Trump sentiments. Musk allegedly inquired if she would be interested in bearing his child, an offer she ultimately declined. Following this exchange, Fong observed a significant decline in her engagement on X, resulting in reduced revenue from the platform.
Family Dynamics and Privacy Concerns
Communication with Musk appears to be mediated through his “fixer,” Jared Birchall, who is responsible for managing his “family office.” Reports indicate that Birchall provides the mothers with legal agreements from Musk, clarifying the terms, and has threatened repercussions when they sought external advice regarding the arrangements.
Birchall is said to have emphasized to St. Clair that “privacy and confidentiality is the top of the list in every aspect of his life.” He added that those who perform well would be rewarded by Musk, creating an environment steeped in meritocracy.
A Pronatalist Perspective
Among right-wing circles, Musk is labeled as a “pronatalist,” a proponent of increasing birth rates to sustain society. He has previously warned that without higher birth rates, “civilization is going to crumble.” Musk’s actions and ideologies continue to draw attention and scrutiny as he navigates this controversial parenting path.
As this story evolves, the implications of Musk’s strategies on both familial and societal levels remain to be seen.
