All of Musk’s markers of a pure Technocrat have been visible for years, but nobody knows what a Technocrat is. The reason he started Tesla was, first and foremost an attack on “fossil” fuels.  He has been pushing a carbon tax for years. He pitched it to Biden in 2021, but Biden spurned him. Musk is totally on board with Sustainable Development, Global Warming, and the war on “fossil fuels.”

Ten years ago, in 2012, Business Insider wrote,

Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk would rather see the government place a tax on carbon emissions than increase tax credits for buyers of electric vehicles, he said last night. He said, “the right thing to do is to place a tax on carbon.”

In 2015, Musk addressed the UN Climate Summit (COP21) in Paris. Business Insider noted,

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk gave a speech in Paris on Wednesday at the Sorbonne, and he called in no uncertain terms for a carbon tax.

And it’s important to note that Musk has never just been about building cars, or going to Mars, or applying solar power more widely. He has a vision for the future that uses those businesses as a means to several important ends: freedom from fossil fuels,

In January 2023, Entrepreneur wrote Here’s What Elon Musk Really Thinks About Climate Change,

“Climate change is the biggest threat that humanity faces this century, except for AI,” Musk told Rolling Stone in 2018. “I keep telling people this. I hate to be Cassandra here, but it’s all fun and games until somebody loses a f—ing eye.” 

In 2008, Musk became CEO of Tesla, now the world’s largest electric vehicle producer. Additionally, in 2016, Tesla acquired SolarCity — a company started by Musk’s cousins — for $2.6 billion. SolarCity was reorganized into Tesla Energy, a clean energy subsidiary of Tesla, Inc.

What was the motivation behind investing in Tesla?

“The fundamental intention of Tesla, at least my motivation, was to accelerate the advent of sustainable energy,“ he said. “That’s why I open-sourced the patents. It’s the only way to transition to sustainable energy better.”

After Musk’s purchase of Twitter (now “X”), he suckered the right into making him a hero. How naive is that? Are they stuck on stupid? Or they floundering in a sea of ignorance?

Musk was raised in a generational family steeped in Technocracy from 1930s. His grandfather was the head over the Canadian branch of Technocracy in the 1930s-1940s. He is a Technocrat pure and simple, and the policies that he advocates for will destroy the world. ⁃ TN Editor
