WIth Elon it's not just an obsession with birthrates, but rather with eugenics. He's a firm believer in the Lebensborn approach to maintaining proper genetic stock.

No doubt. He sounds like the Eugène Terre' Blanche of our times.
better bring some white folk over from South Africa to help us out with 'repopulating'... (#&%@^$#!!!)
Which is also ironic 'cuz...has he seen or heard himself?
He had about a million dollars of facial and scalp surgery done in order to give himself a chin and hair on top. Otherwise, with his receding hairline, he'd look like the guy in the blue shirt by now:
Yes, his eugenic beliefs blind him to the fact that migration is one of the answers to low birth rate.
Can hardly wait for people to find out that he's not rich. All those baby mamas, especially. Wasn't one evicted, the other week, for non-payment?
Instead of panicking over low birthrates, maybe we should figure out how to assimilate the highly motivated people who are trying to get into our country?
Immigration does not do much to reduce the aging of the population but it IS pro-natalist. People plan to move to better opportunities so they can start families. For Elon this is ALL about the “race” of the babies.
And as you said, highly motivated hardworking people make our country better, stronger and richer independent of whether they also bring higher birth rates.
he is disturbed.
American women should stop having children all together.
Just to show Elon. Harumph.
Can someone who talks to Elon Musk get him to change his meds again? He has a dozen kids with almost as many women. He's more like an early Islamic potentate than anything in the "Western" tradition. He's retweeting a Canadian incel who lives in his parents' basement. Shut up already!
Elon should be deported back to South Africa where they can likely deal with this crap as they have had long experience
Thank you, South African, for your concern about the West. We're fine. Deport yourself and your harem anytime.
Has he ever looked in a mirror? 🤡
It’s important that people know about Lebensborn. A lot of them don’t.
It’s pretty clear to me the handmaids tail is the world they seek.
He's a lunatic. We're all humans that happen to be sharing the same planet at the same time - who cares where you come from?
A world full of Muskites would be a disaster.
and it is all so futile as every historian knows. Change has always been a part of the history of mankind. There is no way of stopping it. Only small, scared people fear change.
He sure looks like he came out of the Lebensborn movement 😳
Welcome to Atwood’s Gilead. Probably shouldn’t read too much into the book taking place at Harvard.
another dystopian Harvard reference? 😜
Seems like every book written as a warning has been used as a guidebook by the Trump administration.
Right. It’s about race. Because this latest pogrom/crusade aims straight at Latin Americans, who are westerners with western religion and ideas.
Nothing Apartheid about that!
Where's the proof, Elon! Just because you say so, doesn't make it true!
He’s a racist—no secret there.
Well, then, congress needs to pass initiatives that help the non-rich folks buy homes, support kids, and feed themselves and get decent medical care. We did it before, and we could do it again if congress would give up its fealty to the rich.
The regressive, reactionary MAGA Right has little faith in the capacity of "western" institutions and liberal democracy.
This is not getting enough attention. The administration sole mindset is survival of the fittest. Let the "unfit" in society die off by not helping them survive.
How pure stock is ELON? Most White Afrikaner have some Khoisan people genes. As white 19th century Americans have native genes. Anyway all White Americans are immigrants, mostly illegals.
El0n clearly considers himself superior and speaks of having multiple children with multiple moms. Imho, if you not only don't value empathy, but haven't the capacity for it, you're inferior, not superior. And then there's wisdom, which is in short supply too. Pls keep your genes to yourself, El0n.
The thing is that the stupidest, most gullible people are MAGA. They are the ones we should be discussing removing from the gene pool.
Musk is a ass and his racism and misogyny are obvious. That said, below-replacement-level birthrates will indeed a real big problem for advanced societies that rely on workers to support retirees and social welfare programs. Immigration helps in the medium term but is not a permanent fix.
Immigration makes the economy stronger but it does not make us younger as a population (or it does but very slowly). They raise birth rates but the adult migrants are older. Let’s say it helps stabilize the age structure. But also makes the economy stronger, both important for social welfare.
