The response to Musk’s decision was varied, as expected. Although Scouting America’s reforms are necessary for keeping up with the times, his removal undermines programmes that are already underfunded, according to his detractors. To make sure that all kids feel welcome, diversity and inclusion advocates consider these improvements as essential. Many people took to social media to express their disapproval of Musk’s position, with others claiming that he is “out of touch” with the multicultural America of today.

But his supporters said he was brave to stand up to corporations for what they seen as virtue signalling. They maintain that scouting should not become politicised and should instead be a place where kids may learn independence and service to others. Instead of becoming involved in cultural conflicts, the Boy Scouts focused on teaching members to be self-reliant and work together.
