Others have posted earlier tweets of hers that are basically "if a woman can get an abortion and it's only her choice, then a man can also opt out of a child and not support it". Literally leopard face eating.

And it's also been speculated that Elon doesn't conceive naturally, only IVF. So why the need for a paternity test? I think if they did have traditional intercourse that actually is in itself an interesting fact considering the other children. What it means I have no clue, but it's an outlier.

Any number of things can happen with IVF and the paternity test is literally "This child is X and Z." Courts recognize paternity tests, courts didn't watch him nut into the jar, so until we confirm with the kid's DNA - it could be anyone.

Lmao what you're suggesting is IVF fraud committed by the doctor. Are you seriously suggesting that "well maybe Elon brought someone else's sperm?" No. They signed contracts, did tests, were both very involved in the IVF process. There would be no question about paternity unless you were claiming doctor shenanigans or Elon slipping someone else's sperm in. That's NOT what's happening here.

And "courts recognize paternity tests" is blatantly false. Once a guy's name is on the birth certificate, even a negative paternity test won't get him removed in most states. Reason being that the gov doesnt need more wards of the state and if there's already someone attached, well fuck facts, it saves us money.

Dr. Donald Cline sired 94 children on his patients between 1974 and 1987. I'm sure he isn't the only fertility doctor to have done so...

So again, if you're trying to prove the doctor did something weird, yes. BUT THAT WOULD BE IN ELONS BEST INTEREST TO PROVE. He'd be freed of obligations to the child, would get his money back, and would destroy the doctor.

But Elon isn't asking.

Y'all keep getting obsessed with "well what if someone falsified something during ELONS IVF?!?". Then he wouldn't be the father and he'd be happy to take it.

Y'all keep forgetting that Elons long term plans are to abandon his children. IVF shenanigans, unless it was like "oh you've never actually had a single child", would FAVOR Elon.

So why is it the OTHER party that wants this? For her, it would only damage her case if they did IVF and it came back negative for paternity. So the only logical thing is, maybe they didn't do IVF at all.

Or if you want to get crazy conspiracy theory: Elon hasn't used his own sperm once. He acquired the DNA of a prominent Nazi(maybe even Hitler? WooOoooOooo) and has been using THAT DNA to impregnate women. She wants the paternity test not to prove he's the father and get child support, but to out this secret fact. Maybe even just asking for the test is a form of blackmail. She can make the "paternity test" threat publicly and no one sees it's really extortion.

There ya go, there's a conspiracy that actually fits what's going on, even if it is insane.
