“REMOVE HER SCHOOL OUTFIT,” demanded one guy on X.
“Put her in a very transparent mini-bikini.”
Grok complied.
#ElonMusk’s AI has been sexualizing women and children — and Musk’s response is a 😂.

When transfolx are being attacked by the federal government, we cannot be silent. The actions of one mass shooter should never result in an entire group of people being vilified. Monroe County NOW Supports ALL women. Period. #womensrights #humanrights #monroecountynow

The National Organization for Women stands with the queer community as it is attacked under the current administration. All people should be free to live their own life as they please, and attempts to restrict people's autonomy is unacceptable.

NOW has always been committed to a vision of society without violence against women, which Monroe County NOW is proud to fight for today. Ending violence against women requires taking our efforts into our homes, communities, and streets, as the issue pervades the many parts of our lives.
