In a moment that’s shaking up both Hollywood and Silicon Valley, Elon Musk has exploded in rage — and for good reason. The billionaire tech mogul took to social media in the early hours of this morning after The View aired what many are calling a “disgusting” and “cross-the-line” moment involving Musk’s 4-year-old son, X Æ A-Xii.

During a live segment meant to poke fun at Musk’s recent AI announcement, co-host Whoopi Goldberg and others on the panel made comments that, according to viewers, “mocked the name and identity of Musk’s child in a mean-spirited, borderline cruel way.”

And Elon Musk? He didn’t hold back.

Musk Fires Back: “Mock me all you want. But my child is OFF LIMITS.”

Minutes after the episode aired, Musk tweeted:

“Mock me, insult me, lie about me — I don’t care. But when you come for my 4-year-old son, we have a real problem. You can touch me, but you can’t touch my son. This is absolutely vile. Shame on The View.”

Breaking news: Hollywood is shocked by the series of evidence Elon Musk gave just 10 minutes ago showing that Beyoncé and Jay-Z used money and relationships to cheat the Grammy Awards, and all her awards will be revoked!

The tweet went viral in seconds, amassing over 80 million views in just a few hours. Hashtags like #BoycottTheView, #ProtectX, and #MuskVsView began trending worldwide.

What Exactly Happened on the Show?

In the now-infamous clip, Whoopi Goldberg — in what appeared to be a joking tone — said,

“Well maybe his robot kid X-12-whatever can solve world peace faster than his dad.”

Another host chimed in with, “Or at least figure out how to pronounce his own name.”

While the studio audience laughed, many viewers at home didn’t.

Critics immediately slammed the comments as “mocking a child’s identity,” and even some long-time View fans were deeply disturbed.

Fallout: Backlash, Threats of Boycott, and Musk’s Unexpected Move

Within hours, Musk posted a video response where he directly addressed the show. Visibly furious, he said:

“This isn’t about politics. It’s not about billionaires. This is about decency. Children are off limits — and if they’re not, then what the hell are we doing?”

He also hinted at taking legal action or launching a campaign against “mainstream shows that think children are fair game.”

Rumors are swirling that Musk has already pulled multiple Tesla ad deals tied to ABC affiliates and may even launch a new child advocacy campaign powered by X (formerly Twitter).

ABC in Crisis Mode?

ABC has yet to release an official apology, but an insider claims “urgent meetings” are underway, and that executives are “deeply concerned about the backlash.”

One unnamed producer reportedly told a media outlet:

“We’ve had controversies before, but this one… this could cost us big. You don’t go after Elon Musk’s kid and think the internet won’t erupt.”

Public Divided, But Majority Say ‘Leave the Kids Out of It’

Social media remains on fire, with millions weighing in. While some defend The View and say the comments were “harmless jokes,” a vast majority — regardless of political leaning — agree: children, especially toddlers, should never be mocked on national television.

A viral post reads:

“You don’t have to like Musk. But dragging a 4-year-old into a punchline? That’s just gross. Respect the line.”

What Happens Next?

Will ABC issue an apology? Will Whoopi address the controversy on air? And will Elon Musk go full nuclear with lawsuits, sponsorship pullouts, or worse — a dedicated crusade against daytime TV?

One thing is for sure:
This is no longer just about a joke.
It’s about the war between celebrity media, tech titans — and the sacred line you don’t cross.
