\nOlivia Wilde recently appeared on \u201cThe Louis Theroux Podcast\u201d and slammed Elon Musk while also speaking out against misogynistic incel culture at large. \u201cThe Invite\u201d director and star revealed she once toured Musk\u2019s SpaceX headquarters and met the business tycoon long \u201cbefore he turned into a creature.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI really resent him now. I really deeply resent him,\u201d Wilde said. \u201cI met him many, many years ago. I think SpaceX had just built their headquarters in L.A. and I got to go on a tour because I wanted to see the rocket ships. He was interested in donating money to an organization that I was a part of in Haiti that was building hospitals and schools. I believe he did donate a little bit of money, and that\u2019s appreciated. I was confused by him. I would never have predicted he would go down the path he has gone down. He did seem really smart.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWilde noted how Musk has perpetuated some of incel culture\u2019s more disturbing ideology, particularly the belief that men are more powerful than nature. The filmmaker noted how Musk connects to this mentality by \u201ctalking about how we don\u2019t have enough people and the world is underpopulated and we could handle another billion people.\u201d Musk often expresses his belief that humanity is facing an impending \u201cunderpopulation crisis,\u201d arguing it\u2019s a bigger threat than global warming.<\/p>\n

\n\tDuring the press tour for \u201cDon\u2019t Worry Darling\u201d in fall 2022, Wilde garnered the attention of incel culture when she said she based Chris Pine\u2019s villain character off author and commentator Jordan Peterson, who Wilde referred to as \u201cthis pseudo-intellectual hero to the incel community.\u201d Peterson then broke down in tears during an interview with Piers Morgan in reaction to Wilde\u2019s statement. <\/p>\n

\n\tWilde defined incels at the time as \u201cdisenfranchised, mostly white men, who believe they are entitled to sex from women. And they believe that society has now robbed them \u2014 that the idea of feminism is working against nature, and that we must be put back into the correct place.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tSpeaking now on Theroux\u2019s podcast, Wilde admitted that it \u201cmight have ben unfair for me to call [Peterson] a pseudo-intellectual\u201d because \u201che obviously thinks about things deeply, but I just feel that he operates in a way that is a buttoned-up version of the type of thinkers that lead to the Andrew Tate\u2019s of the world. There are different layers to that community, some of whom speak more clearly the points they are all actually filtering through.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cMy issue with Peterson is a lot of people who are not in any way misogynist have adopted this sanitized version of the same philosophy that\u2019s rooted in deep misogyny and weaponized by the incel community,\u201d Wilde continued. \u201cThe basic point of it is entitlement to power. That is something that many men are struggling with\u2026 I was disturbed by what I saw as this misogyny that was being weaponized and leading us to elect Donald Trump twice and beyond that just empower these groups of people who I think are dangerous.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen asked in 2022 about why Wilde\u2019s comment made him so emotional, Peterson fought back tears and said, \u201cIt\u2019s really something to see \u2014 constantly how many people are dying for lack of an encouraging word and how easy it is to provide that if you\u2019re careful.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tWilde told Theroux she was more or less dumbfounded by this comment, explaining: \u201c\u2018Lack of an encouraging word\u2019 is so absurd. There is a large, booming word of encouragement happening at all time for these men, which is: \u2018This world is yours and you are entitled to it.\u2019 That\u2019s deeply engrained in our society. This idea they need a reminder of encouragement deserve more is ludicrous.\u201d<\/p>\n
