Elon Musk has called for canceling Netflix primarily due to outrage over Netflix content and staff that he and others accuse of promoting a "transgender woke agenda" and "pushing pro-trans content" on children. The controversy began after Hamish Steele, creator of the Netflix animated series "Dead End: Paranormal Park," made offensive comments about conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was recently shot dead. Steele's show featured a transgender character and has been criticized by Musk and others for promoting LGBTQ+ themes to kids. Musk responded by urging his followers to cancel Netflix "for the health of your kids" and accused Netflix of discriminating against white people based on its diversity and inclusion policies. He also criticized political donations by Netflix employees to Democrats and called the platform's content "immoral" and "should be illegal." Netflix's stock fell following Musk's calls, but Netflix has not publicly responded to his campaign.
