Musk is a scumbag from the get-go.
If he didn't want to support his kids he never should have had any.
Wearing a condom isn't that hard to do.
He’s a giant selfish piece of shit with a messiah/god complex who was born on third with Hank Aaron at bat, any sane society would’ve dropped him into the deep wilderness with a bindle a decade ago. I hope he takes up submarining
Between the space travel and brain implants, his own companies have plenty of good options besides submarining.
Unfortunately I think he’s too much of a coward to go first on any of those himself, probably for my suggestion too, I hope he proves me wrong with the brain implants and then something doesn’t go terribly wrong with the inputs to the pain centers of his brain
You're probably right, but we can dream.
Ichiro or Ted Williams.
Hank was a home run hitter not an on base hitter.
I know I was trying to imply overkill
Iirc he believes that it's his duty to procreate and produce as many white people as possible to prevent replacement.
And yet he's too lazy to give his "awesome Aryan super race" kids half decent names. And even his Dad was a technocrat nazi who despised the peasants. The gene pool behind this fucker should have been laid to waste a long time ago. Absolute parasite.
The replacement part is bullshit made up to hate.
He thinks EVERYONE needs to have more kids as the world is going to run into major problems with population decline, like is happening In Japan if trends continue.
I don't agree with him, but he is advocating for everyone, not white people.
Edit: and he has talked about this many times, it's not new.
I don't understand the fear of population decline. We grow and grow until...?
Less people is better for the planet. But less people means not enough people to support the layer of pyramid above it.
That's it isn't it?
Who's going to pay for those millions of vacant apartments, and who's going to support the elderly if there's not enough people?
Like it or not, there will be a disruption from it if its too sudden, but I don't see it as the dire thing that he seems to think it is. It'll eventually sort itself out and we'll be better for it.
We can't grow forever. We've already made irreversible damage to the planet. Disruption to human comfort is nothing compared to the species and lands that are now forever extinct.
(I'm not sure if we're on the same page. I read your message two ways)
I agree, we can't grow forever, I just also think there will be consequences to a declining population, but thats okay, and we'll get through it. The more gradual we can decline the smoother it'll be.
Continuing our growth would just be worse in the end.
What consequences do you see? I don't see anything difficult to overcome. What big picture am I not seeing that you're talking about?
With the way some country leaders talk about using nuclear weapons these days (Russia and now Israel), it won't be a gradual decline in world population but a rapid one.
Or else what?
What consequences does he face other than people on the internet calling him mean names?
Morals are for poor people. They're the only ones who suffer consequences for not having them.
