“Without babies there’s no future, every problem becomes secondary to the problem of not having people on the planet,” said Varsavsky. “Elon believes that a country is not the geography, a country is the people.”
Speaking to an audience at an investment conference in Saudi Arabia last year, Musk laid out the urgency of the matter. “I think for most countries, they should view the birthrate as the single biggest problem they need to solve. If you don’t make new humans, there’s no humanity, and all the policies in the world don’t matter,” Musk told the crowd over a live video.
Possible translation: “I’m going to need many, many future slaves and test subjects for my Neuralink brain chip that will be able to read your minds and maybe even allow me to take control of your minds and bodies whenever I want. Also, I need to blast lots of controllable people to Mars. Many of them will probably die. Pilgriming is hard business, after all.”
Can’t believe how out of touch this sick fuck is. “Have more kids!!” Ya, ok buddy. Maybe when you make housing available and affordable. Maybe when you make it easy to have a life at home and not completely beholden to tenuous corporate interests optimized to squeeze all of someone’s life and soul out of them. Maybe when you start to actually give a fuck about the future health of this planet, so if someone decides to bring new life into existence, they’re not debilitated by guilt at having forced someone to live in the hellish future you’re fabricating.
“Without babies there’s no future, every problem becomes secondary to the problem of not having people on the planet”
Instead, how about “With the perception of there being a really shitty future, or possibly no future, people will conscientiously refuse to bring more people into existence because they don’t want to be responsible for their childrens’ horrible and untimely deaths.”
I, for one, would feel like a complete piece of shit if I were to reproduce today because, sorry kid, the shittiest, most hostile sociopathic people happen to be in charge now and I don’t foresee that changing anytime soon…barring, of course, an extinction event you would have no chance of surviving.
Even if the global birth rate dropped to ~1.75 kids per woman (currently it’s around 2.3), it would still take over 150 years for the world population to fall to half its current level. We are in no danger of humans becoming endangered, except by our own hands. I believe this is 100% related to him being an asshole.
