There are few things more enraging than watching the innocent being attacked by those who revel in bitterness and rage. Whoopi Goldberg and “The View” panelists have hit a new low, lashing out at a 4-year-old child—Elon Musk’s son, “Little X.” This isn’t just political hostility. This is something darker, something that bears a striking resemblance to the spiritual oppression described in Scripture.
Conservative podcaster Benny Johnson put it bluntly: “The childless, hideous witches of ‘The View’ who have literally nothing to live for other than their own anger and nihilism have decided to attack Elon Musk’s 4-year-old son.” That’s not hyperbole. That’s an accurate depiction of what we’re witnessing—adults, devoid of joy and family purpose, viciously targeting a child simply because they despise his father.

A Biblical Parallel to Demonic Oppression
The Bible gives us clear descriptions of what demonic oppression looks like. In Mark 9, a boy is tormented by a spirit that seeks to destroy him, throwing him into fire and water to ruin his life (Mark 9:22). The spirit has no real reason to attack the boy—only an insatiable hatred for life and innocence. This mirrors what we’re seeing from Goldberg and her ilk. They mock; they sneer; they attempt to tear down a child who has done nothing but exist in a loving, father-led household.
Goldberg’s attack also echoes the account in Luke 8:26-39, where Jesus encounters a man possessed by a legion of demons, living among the tombs, naked, shrieking and utterly consumed by his hatred for the living. What does Jesus do? He casts out the demons, restoring the man’s dignity. What do the modern-day Pharisees on “The View” do? They embrace their demons, spreading their venom, unable to tolerate the sight of a father loving his son.
“That’s when you know they have nothing else to say—the audience laughs after they pick on a child,” Johnson said. “Pure evil. Truly.” And he isn’t exaggerating. This is exactly what darkness does—it attacks the light.
The Power of Present Fathers
But here’s the real reason the left hates Elon Musk. It’s not just because he supports Trump or because he’s dismantling their sacred cows such as government overreach and corporate censorship. It’s because he is a present father. A strong father. A father who leads.
Musk isn’t parading his son as a prop—he’s demonstrating what real, engaged fatherhood looks like. He takes Little X to major events. He spends time with him. He includes him in the journey of life, preparing him for leadership and responsibility. That’s what terrifies the left.
Fatherhood is the greatest antidote to the moral and societal decay that people like Goldberg promote. A present, loving father instills values, discipline and purpose. The Bible commands fathers to raise their children in the fear and instruction of the Lord (Eph. 6:4). Studies show that children with involved fathers perform better in school, are less likely to engage in crime and have higher self-esteem. Musk isn’t just shaping his son’s future—he’s demonstrating a model of fatherhood that the radical left cannot stand.
“If you’re a father, you will really understand,” Johnson said. “There’s nothing more motivating than looking at the future of your children and saying, ‘What will I give them?’”
Johnson gets it. Fathers who build, who protect, who invest in their children are the foundation of strong families—and strong nations.
