Elon Musk and Tucker Carlson get to the bottom of the West’s ‘civilizational suicide’

Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently said,civilized suicideThe ongoing “parasitic mindset” in the West, climate change alarm, and false religion.

In the middle of an interview with the famous host of the Tucker Carlson Network, Musk said that left-wing billionaire George Soros is “aging” but that his son, Alexander Soros, has a strong non-governmental system. and other “like-minded people” who might carry on his ideas, he said. An “anti-civilization” campaign that normalizes crime and dismantles national borders.

Open borders and unchecked crime are certainly devastating, but Mr. Musk implied that they are merely symptoms of a larger civilizational disease. This disease is one in which the body politically accepts the policies of the Open Society Foundations, shuns life, mutates empathy, and glorifies uninhabited nature.

Asked to assess the current situation in Europe, Musk lamented the collapse in birth rates.

“My biggest concern for Europe is that the birth rate is half the replacement rate,” Musk said. “Europe is therefore aging rapidly over the years, and the number of young people is decreasing….At the most basic level, as long as Europe's birth rate is at least approximately equal to the replacement rate, the population will decline naturally.'' We are facing a population collapse.”

“Their main domestic social policy is to persuade people not to have children.”

A peer-reviewed study conducted in May found that
Published in Lancet found that birth rates have been declining in all countries and regions since 1950, and that “human civilization is rapidly converging on the reality of persistently low birth rates.”

Fertility rate refers to the average number of children a woman bears during her lifetime. The replacement rate Musk mentioned is 2.1. This is necessary for the population to maintain stability and replenish itself without the need for replacement by foreigners.

Blaze News previously reported that the global birth rate in 1950 was 4.84. In 2021, it was 2.23. By the end of the 2100s, it is expected to decline globally to 1.59.

The average fertility rate across the European Union in 2022 was 1.46. Italy and Spain had the lowest rates among European countries, at 1.24 and 1.16, respectively.

While Europe is on a well-oiled trajectory toward collapse, Carlson reflects on the situation in the United States, saying, “If you take three steps back, the U.S. government is pretty intent on reducing the American population.'' “It looks like they are working on it. There is a lot of anti-birther movement going on.” In fact, that seems to be their main domestic social policy, trying to persuade people not to have children. ”

According to The U.S. general fertility rate reached a historic low of 1.61 in 2023, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In contrast, in 1960 the U.S. birth rate was 3.7.

Despite these alarming statistics, the Biden-Harris administration continues to
slaughter of fetuses and effective is sterilization of vulnerable people meanwhile Democratic Party member It is working to dissuade some young couples from becoming parents.

A major driving force behind anti-natalism in the West in recent years has been alarmism about climate change.

Morgan Stanley Analyst
said Investors predict that in 2021, “the movement toward childlessness is growing due to concerns about climate change, impacting fertility rates faster than any previous trend in the fertility decline field.” There is.

“People are getting infected and making it impossible to make rational decisions.”

“The extreme environmental movement is fundamentally misanthropic and anti-human,” Musk told Carlson. “They come to see humans as a plague, a plague on the surface. Without humans, the earth would be this paradise.”

Musk said some climate change advocates have openly expressed a desire to see humanity wiped out in a massive “holocaust,” but they don't want to do it out loud or in person. He pointed out that there are some people who don't appreciate it that much.

“Many people believe that the earth cannot sustain this many people, but that is simply not true. It may seem like there are a lot of people in a crowded city, but in reality When you look down from inside an airplane, you say, “Will I be more than human at some point?'' When you're on a plane, the answer is… 99.9% of the time, no. ”

Musk emphasized that the world is in fact underpopulated, and that any suggestions to the contrary are partly the result of the successful anti-depopulation propaganda promoted by biologist Paul Ehrlich.

Mr. Ehrlich doubled down on his anti-human fanaticism in a “60 Minutes'' interview last year, even though the main claims of his masterpiece have been debunked by real-world developments. emphasized that “there are too many people.''

“I hope he burns in hell, that guy, really. He's a terrible human being,” Musk said.

Musk highlights that left-wing governments, particularly Starmer's government in the UK, are actively censoring those who dare to criticize indigenous population replacement amidst the activist-backed demographic collapse in Western countries. After that,
Sporadic rape by immigrants“I used the term 'mind virus,' but it's acting like a virus. It's infecting people and making it impossible for them to make rational decisions,” Carlson said.

Musk recommended the work of Gad Saad, an evolutionary behavioral scientist who argued that the Western world is “infested with a series of ideological pathogens that deny reality and common sense.”

noticed Last year I wrote in the National Post that the biggest culprits of pathogens currently plaguing the Western world are: postmodernism:

This is a form of intellectual terrorism because it assumes that objective truth does not exist, since apparently all truth claims are tainted by subjective relativism and personal bias. Postmodernism opens the door to interrogate “outdated” realities about what constitutes men and women. Until 15 minutes ago, the 117 billion people who have ever lived as sexually reproducing species knew exactly how to distinguish between these two phenotypes. This is no longer true.

Other virulent ideas that Saad suggested are currently paralyzing the West are the “DIE cult” (diversity, inclusion, equity), cultural relativism, and suicidal thoughts.

Saad pointed out that sympathy for suicide is what energizes the class of people who are willing to allow criminal non-citizens to illegally enter their homeland, despite a track record of preying on citizens. did.

“An awakened mind virus replaces religion.”

“Progressives are driven by a misplaced, overactive, false sense of empathy,” Saad wrote. “According to Progressive doctrine, criminals are victims of society. Therefore, punishing criminals harshly for their actions presupposes that they have personal agency. ”

Musk contrasted “deep empathy” with a desire to see civilization flourish, and suggested that continuing this shallow or “suicidal empathy” would “lead to the destruction of civilization.”

According to Musk, there is a link between the instillation and spread of this parasitic mindset and the decline of religion.

“Nature abhors a vacuum. So when religion by nature declines and the secular nature of society increases, for most people, they need something to fill that vacuum, and they adopt religion. .That's not it.''
called “The awakened mind virus takes the place of religion, and they internalize it and feel it with religious fervor,” Musk said.

Mr. Musk suggested that followers of this woke pseudo-religion would wage a “holy war.”

Blaze News recently discussed the impact of America's de-Christianization with Georgetown University political theory professor Dr. Joshua Mitchell.

“Identity politics is the latest iteration of an imperfect religion.”

Mitchell's paper isAmerica's awakening: Identity politics and other contemporary woes.” pre-empted Musk's recognition by several years and showed that identity politics had absorbed much of the attention and energy previously devoted to traditional religion.

“So when the Pew Charitable Trusts points out that church attendance in America is declining, I say, 'I don't know where to look,'” Mitchell said. “If we call religion “institutionalized Christianity,'' then of course the numbers will decrease. But if we call religion “institutionalized Christianity,'' he says, “in order to find redemption, and the search for ways to think through historical sin.''In America today,
religious revival. ”

Mitchell borrowed the term from Alexis de Tocqueville to describe the woke pseudo-religion that Musk had recently identified.

We did not move from Christianity to a secular world. We have moved from an imperfect Christianity with designated innocent victims and a moral economy of who is cleansed and who is damned to the next Christianity. Identity politics is the latest iteration of an imperfect religion.
