Elon Musk, the multibillionaire and self-proclaimed “free speech absolutist”, has in recent days trained his attention on getting people to cancel their Netflix subscriptions in protest of what he claims is the company’s “woke bias” and inclusion of LGBTQ+ characters.
Musk, the richest person in the world with a net worth of approximately $500bn, has repeatedly encouraged his 227 million followers on X, the platform he controls, to cancel their Netflix subscriptions. In the past three days alone, he has posted or reposted calls to cancel Netflix for its content at least 26 times.
Musk’s anti-Netflix tirade began on Tuesday, when he posted “this is not ok” while reposting from rightwing activist account Libs of TikTok’s clip of the Netflix show Dead End: Paranormal Park, in which the character Barney says he is transgender.
