It would be pitiable if he hadn't already burned through 1000x his allotted pity credits (even only in the last 6 months).
Elon has fallen into that classic trap of 'it exists, but I don't like it, so I must cancel it!' rather than what a normal thinking parent would do, and not allow your kid to watch that one show.
You know, parenting...
There are lots of shows I don't like on Netflix, I just scroll past instead of having a public tantrum.
But I'm not a ketamine addict either.
Their biggest source of anxiety in life is enough people aren't paying attention to them. Anything else that captures more Attention is an automatic existential threat. Netflix captures a lot of Attention. Therefore its a threat.

I have to imagine that most children don’t even realize that same sex couples are in a relationship or a character is trans while watching shows.

The trick with propaganda is that it subconsciously affects your mind, to the point you won't realize until it is too late.
It is no secret why most FAANG are in advertising: Meta, Google, Netflix (movies and shows are just another form).
They are in the business of controlling your mind - doing this to children is immoral, especially when it comes to their health and identity.
