    I'm sure if the ruling class were serious about me reproducing, they'd increase my wage enough so that I could afford to raise a child.

    Musk also kept bringing up adult diapers in his answers to all the other interview questions, it was getting a little weird by the end

    Anybody who's concerned about declining birth rates but doesn't support free public housing isn't concerned about declining birth rates.

    Talking about birth rates immediately after a mass shooter wrote a manifesto espousing great replacement bullshit :sus-torment:

    Wait, is "adult diapers" supposed to be shorthand for "declining birth rates means we end up with an elder care worker shortage 50 years down the road?"

    Needing adult diapers is not something that adequate care can help you with, Elon. Nobody's going hold your poop in for you.

      Now you’ve gone and lathed butt plug as an electronic medical device. I hope you’re happy.

        Someone needs to put more safeties on all these lathes, this is getting out of control.

          I time travel to a billionaire’s NZ compound and am immediately surrounded by their guards.

          “Why do you defend this monster? I don’t see a bomb collar on you.”

          “Collar? If only!”

    The environment would be fine if we actually restructured society towards preserving and coexisting with nature

    Which is not what Musk is suggesting at all

    “History’s richest person terrified of being incontinent, uses it to support forced breeding” is not the headline I was expecting.

    That would be like me saying, “we need fully automated luxury gay space communism or clowns will pop out from dark corners to stab you to death”.
