Elon Musk faces allegations of sexual misconduct and drug use

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, is facing serious allegations involving sexual misconduct and drug use, according to a report by The Wall Street Journal. The report details claims from former employees of both companies, highlighting a workplace culture that left many women feeling uncomfortable and unsafe.

Allegations of Sexual Misconduct

The allegations against Musk include having inappropriate sexual relationships with two employees, one of whom was an intern. Furthermore, a SpaceX flight attendant has accused Musk of exposing himself to her in 2016 and offering to buy her a horse in exchange for sexual favors.

In another instance, a former SpaceX employee, who left the company in 2013, claimed that Musk persistently asked her to bear his children. Musk, who has publicly expressed concerns about global underpopulation, has fathered at least ten children and has stated that he believes people with high IQs should procreate.

Additionally, the report mentions a SpaceX employee who received numerous invitations from Musk to visit his house late at night, which she found uncomfortable and inappropriate.

Drug Use Allegations

The Wall Street Journal report also highlights accusations of Musk's regular drug use, which allegedly included substances like LSD, cocaine, ecstasy, mushrooms, and ketamine. Some of these incidents reportedly occurred at work and involved board members.

Workplace Culture at Tesla and SpaceX

The allegations suggest a workplace environment at both Tesla and SpaceX that many female employees found troubling. Women at Tesla reported being subjected to unwanted attention and feeling pursued by Musk, contributing to a culture that they found uncomfortable and challenging to navigate.

These new allegations add to a growing list of controversies surrounding Musk, whose behavior and management practices have come under scrutiny in the past.
