Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has once again set off a storm online, this time targeting Netflix. Over the past week, Musk has repeatedly urged his 227 million followers on X (formerly Twitter) to cancel their Netflix subscriptions.
In one widely shared post, Musk wrote: “Cancel Netflix for the health of your kids." In another, he echoed a user’s claim that Netflix “employed someone who celebrated the murder of Charlie Kirk and makes content that pushes pro-trans content on my kids," replying simply: “Same."
