Why does he keep broadcasting he's got the emotional intelligence of a 13yo with both regular & reverse daddy-issues
You may be the richest man on earth, but your Netflix subscription is still the same price as everyone elses. So I'm sure Netflix doesn't really give a shit.
Perhaps he thinks that people give a shit about his opinions. He burned his bridges with conservatives by accepting huge government contracts and shitting on trump. He burned his bridges with liberals with is DOGE fiasco and by allying himself with trump.
The few disaffected people that hung on after those can't be happy with Elon throwing himself in Ketamine trance on a regular basis. Musks has zero credibility with anyone now except his hand picked board members of Tesla Inc.
He still has a sizeable tech bro/temporarily embarrassed millionaire following filled with politically-apathetic/"right leaning for the tax breaks" people. But I can't imagine they're opinionated enough to take his opinion as a call to cancel their own convenient Netflix subscription so your point still stands
He cancelled netflix because he is scared of trans people. I cancelled netflix because it's the financially responsible thing to do. We are not the same 😎
Their very first show, Orange is the New Black had a trans character. Why is this an issue now?
The mistake is assuming this decision was based on anything resembling principles or values.
Or logic
Cancelling netflix wont bring back your daughter elon
He paid for boys so does he care that his daughter disowned him? He didn't use his ill-gotten gains to buy a female meat shield! Besides, he's already got his "You're not the real president" kid for that.

I don't understand how a trans-inclusive show hurts conservatives. Just don't watch it?
Wait, I feel like I just summarized the entire problem..
They genuinely think they’re boycotting for the same reason other people boycott Nazi run business. The difference is that they’re dumb as rocks and will believe whatever the angry men on TV tell them.
The show was from years ago. These people need to get a life.
What a snowflake
Take your pick:
Note: These are directed at PinkNews, rather than OP. The point I'm trying to make is that, at least in my opinion, it's ridiculous to report on everything this vaguely humanoid turd says and does when it's as inconsequential as this. "Elon Does Nazi Salute" is newsworthy; "Elon Cancels Netflix Subscription" is not.
And now, on with the memes...
Netflix should sue him and force him to subscribe, just like he was going to sue advertisers for not advertising on X.
That opening paragraph is a thing of savage beauty
X boss and free speech stalwart Elon Musk has cancelled his Netflix account amid a right-wing backlash to a trans-inclusive show that was cancelled more than two years ago
🙄
Good reminder Elon Musk got gender affirming care to which it failed his already limp grotesque dick
Whenever he's transphobic I always think of his daughter Vivian and feel like it must hurt her a lot. It's sad
My pet theory is that he’s transphobic because Vivian destroyed his dream of having only sons. He (in)famously uses IVF so he can selectively only have male embryos implanted. And Vivian flies in the face of that plan. Vivian is living proof that even with all of the modern scientific marvels of IVF and all the money in the world, he still can’t accomplish his goal of only having boys.
His top (of head) surgery was also gender-affirming healthcare.
Remember when LibsOfTiktok was just targeted harassment of social minorities and not a mainstream culture war propagandist?
Does Netflix have a Nazi Entertainment category?
I cancelled Netflix years ago and never looked back when they released Cuties, because I don’t want to see (or support) 11 year olds shaking their asses.
Some of these fuckers would probably sign up just for that content.
Please don’t tell me any more about this thing I was not aware of until this moment.
Musk is scum and I'm eagerly awaiting the day he's no longer shitting up the world.
Canceling Disney subscriptions: because fascists tried to silence criticism against the idiocy that is the trump regime.
Canceling Netflix subscriptions: because conservatives hate trans people…. who could have seen this coming
Who cares. Wake me up when he finally ODs on something.
Imagine using the same streaming service as people who aren't cis het rich white male Christian conservatives. That's the bizarre dystopian future the radical woke left wants to force on our children.
Is this news?
Show is "Dead End: Paranormal Park" in case anyone else bases their media consumption on the "Bigot snowflakes hate it so it should" premise.
I read the article, and adding it to my watch list was the first thing I did with this information.
Notable techwizard doesn't know how to download a movie, relies on subpar streaming services, more at 11
The animation, which ran for two seasons in 2022, is centred around 17-year-old gay and transgender boy Barney Guttman (Zach Barack) who starts working at a paranormal theme park alongside his pal Norma Khan (Kody Kavitha) and talking pug, Pugsley (Alex Brightman). The trio “team up to battle demons at a haunted theme park — and maybe even save the world from a supernatural apocalypse,”
Ngl, that sounds pretty badass and/or delightfully silly with or without the bonus of positive trans representation.
This, along with the fact that the show was already cancelled over two years ago, really shows how unhinged these fascist troglodytes are 🤦
Pissbaby who could literally watch anything else throws public tantrum
Whoooo fucking cares
Who knew the ubermensch would be so fragile?!
He’s got time for Netflix?
All he seems to do is watch TV and tweet.
That is between ketamine shots.
Saddest not-the-onion article I have seen here yet tbh. :/
We as a people need to stop listening to this guy or anything he says. Its a fucking bummer because I remember years and years ago when he seemed like a really cool innovative genius. Now he's shone himself to be a consistent liar and jerk. Stop letting this dudes bullshit words have any impact. Especially on the market....
I honestly can't imagine hating my kid that much. Like, idk if the father that disowned me for being trans hates trans people that much
OK
Wasn't squid games trans inclusive?
Why would anyone care about what musk thinks anyway
Ironic, I cancelled my Netflix subscription over Dave Chapelle's transphobic standup show, so I guess now me and the Musk have something in common.
I could be sad over that fact, but I'll choose to be thankful that thing is not our taste in drugs or obsession with others' genitals. I'm out and proud and today is a good day :)
