Elon Musk forecasts grim future of human race

Elon Musk forecasts grim future of human race thumbnail

Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s grim forecast of humanity suggests that a “population bomb” would lead to a worldwide collapse in humans in the coming decades and everybody would start to see the evident effects by 2050.

Musk’s prediction was triggered by a tweet from a page called World of Engineering that said: “1950 (historical) world population – 2,556,000,053. Current world population – 7,712,343,478. 2050 (projected) world population – 9,346,399,468.”

Replying to that tweet on Friday Musk wrote: “Real issue will be an ageing and declining world population by 2050, *not* overpopulation.”

Musk also shared a Wikipedia link to an article titled, “Projections of population growth”.

“Yes, demographics, stratified by age, will look like an upside down pyramid with many old people and fewer young,” the multi-billionaire entrepreneur wrote further.

The SpaceX CEO’s theory believes that when an increasingly-elderly global population clashes with declining birth rates around the world in the near future a ‘population bomb’ would go off, web portal Futurism reported.

Musk first broached the topic back in 2017 when Musk replied to a publication saying, “The world’s population is accelerating towards collapse, but few seem to notice or care.”

    Hint:
    This was apparent in 1968.
    Earths population has tripled from when I was born.

    While this psycho is usually wrong, in this case, I agree. Humanity’s future is going to shrink to, maybe, a survivable few million…total. By 2100 for sure. I lived to see it peak, and I might live to see it start the slide down. Pass the popcorn.

    Duncan: World population in:1968 was ~ 3,550,000,000

    World population in 2020 is ~ 7,800,000,000 or about TWICE the number at you birth not 3 times.

    population/world-population-by-year/

    Math is not your thing, is it. LOL

    BTW: World population was about 2,200,000,000 in 1944 when I was born. Since then it has actually more than tripled. ^_^

    “The SpaceX CEO’s theory believes that when an increasingly-elderly global population clashes with declining birth rates around the world in the near future a ‘population bomb’ would go off, web portal Futurism reported.“

    This sentence doesn’t make sense at all.

    “increasingly elder population clashing with declining birthrates”

    WTF?!

    Age doesn’t matter that much. A human is useful between 18 and 2-3 years before he dies, regardless if he lives until 68 (like in my youth) or 81 (now).

    Declining birthrates are a blessing, provided they apply to all groups around the world.

    When I was a kid around 1960, all the men worked 6 days per week, until 65 and died with 68 on average. Smoking and drinking was heavy in those days. Thanks to technology, better medical care, better hygiene, fitness, sport, people live much longer and healthier. Good development. My father enjoyed his retirement for 28 years rather than 3, not in the least thanks to strong rule enforcement by my mother.lol Like throwing in the garbage four hand-rolled cigars of $20 each, I had bought in Havana-Cuba for my father. On the trip back I flew over Miami at night and since then I’m an America expert. 🙂

    The overpopulation war is a religious one. Yes, there are also political admixtures as in Communist China, but in most countries it is the cultural traditions, based on or supported by religion, that are antagonistic to contraception, abortion, and giving females more choice in sexual affairs.  In Mohammedan countries, slavery and harems are common, and murder by religious fanatics keeps the population (especially the women and girls) in line.  In Christian lands, abortion early in pregnancy or to terminate deformed fetuses is justified on the grounds that various saints or religious authorities have determined that the soul is created by God at conception and must not be prevented from being born.  So until this issue of ensoulment has been dealt with head-on, little headway can be made in the war.  Since most scientists and academic elites officially deny the existence of a non-physical domain, there is virtually no common ground for a civil conversation between religious believers and political authorities, who are usually officially agnostic, if not atheist.

    If there is any possibility of finding such common ground, it can be found only in the discipline of paranormology, specifically in the area known popularly as reincarnation.  This would mean taking seriously such researchers as Rupert Sheldrake, Ian Stevenson and Hans TenDam, and the religio-philosophical tenets of Buddhism and Hinduism on this issue.  But since the academic elites, who reflexively deny any and all evidence of anything paranormal, refuse to accept the premiss that there may be something beyond their ken, there will be no progress until collapse.

    Because mankind always prefers war to reason.

    I forecast a grim future for Elons faux-fortune if he doesn’t actually start turning a profit at…..something. Anything. Unless of course, the uSgov has quietly agreed to subsidize his dumb, unprofitable ass for now and the foreseeable future. Thus reliving him of the burden of actually having to produce goods and services people actually need.

    As for Elons, ‘predictions’, they are worth as much as all the discarded fridges, abandoned cars, old tires, and the unidentifiable heaps of trash littering zeo delusional davys front and back yard put together.

    Remeber, this carnival barker is for reasons that are entirely unclear, is considered some kind of trail-blazing man-of-and-from the-‘future’. Most amerikans, and the odd random jew, seem to think he is some kind of high-tech messiah, or something along those lines.

  18. Outcast_Searcher on Sun, 30th Aug 2020 9:51 am 

    Musk is a liar and an idiot about many topics. Just look at his track record for claims about Tesla re dates and capabilities about, say, FSD, which are all COMPLETE nonsense, year after year. Or him being muzzled by the hapless SEC for being such a liar.

    Although there is a trend toward older people not liking newer tech, there are certainly plenty of folks in their 60’s and 70’s who still fool around a lot with tech. and keep up with it to the extent they need to, to deal with what they want for their own tech needs, maintaining their tech. etc. With some companies which provide online maintenance manuals like Dell, Youtube videos, etc. it’s not difficult — it just takes a bit of effort.

    And buying used from reliable and reputable refurbashers saves a TON of money vs. buying new, even if if the used computers have a lower net lifespan. All it takes is good data backups, which are increasingly easy with better drive, drive cloners, etc.

    So yes, once an old person is senile and in a nursing home, they’re done. But a LOT of old people can live alone and function OK with a modern first world society with technology, medical care, delivery, etc. until in their 90’s, and purchase the bit of help they need. And in a decade or three, geofenced self driving cars will likely be able to take older people living in cities to and from places they need to go in the city once they shouldn’t drive themselves cheaper and more conveniently than taxis were.

    Given what’s happening, AGW impacts are likely to be a far bigger issue than “old people don’t like tech” by 2050, much less beyond.

    With the wealth divide continually widening, whoever is alive in 2100, unless they are one of 11 trillionaires, will be living in abject poverty eating whatever insects that are still in existence to eat because there’s nothing else. There won’t be any social services at all and no taxes, not even on the trillionaires.

    Whomever is president will be in the same mold as Trump, telling ‘The People’ their a bunch of losers and it doesn’t matter who they vote for, he’s in charge (because he’s rigged it from tips he learned from whomever eventually replaces Putin), and more will be expected of them in the future to support the trillionaires.

    The only military will be to guard the 11 trillionaires. The only wars will be between trillionaires out of greed in pursuit of consolidating wealth.

    The lives of the abject impoverished will be so horrible, it will make insects that make other insects their slaves look like a Summer Camp by comparison.

    Elon Musk loves to call fuel cells, fool cells… because he has a horse in this race.

    Meanwhile Danish and Swiss researchers have achieved a potential breakthrough in developing a new platinum-cobalt catalyst that needs far less platinum, 5 gram per car rather than 30-50 gram:

    “If you’re so smart, why ain’t you rich?” The implication is that Musky, because he is rich, is a genius about everything.  Ditto for the rest of the big globalist moneybags.  In fact, they just regurgitate unthinkingly whatever they scarf up from the gutter, which is defecated there by nihilist professors.  And the proletariat is supposed to believe that those utterances from oligarchs are divinely inspired.

    In fact, the superrich are dangerous ignorami with big pockets, like Sörös and the rest of the Davos sewer, which is replete with paranoiac Yids aiming for world control.  These giant squids hire frauds like the sanctimonious dictatress, Angela Merkel, a hybrid pseudo-Lutheran Communist blob (German Zwitterwesen) of fecal matter destroying Germany, as ordered by Jewry.  The same goes for the other tyrants dominating the Western “democracies.”  Musky differs from most others only in his self-praise and exhibitionism.

    The entire Ponzi scheme and suicide pact of world “leaders” is headed for collapse.  The only thing rational Whites can do is to withdraw from the entire idiotic whirligig.  Stop contributing to so-called “charitable” organizations and their poster kiddies, syndicates which only feed the planetary cancers.  Let the Democrat and RINO bribe-ocrats swallow all the Kike semen on their own, without any help from sane people.  The whole criminal enterprise will fall by itself.  Do not try to keep it alive, no matter what agitprop the Yidbox spews out.

    In other words, the best policy is social distancing from the genosuicidist lepers who seek to devour the only civilization ever worthy of the name.

    I nevertheless have Musk in somewhat in regard, he has a big mouth and is not entirely in bed with the globalists, which is not that strange if you are from South-Africa, a country even worse off by globalism:

    “Gib me dat for free.”

    “Indeed, a brilliant insight! We can forgive Musk for the use of an informal vernacular, for he has summed up an important truth—that the profits accumulated by the capitalist class come from the fact that the value produced by workers is in excess of what they are paid in wages—that is, it is “unpaid labor.”

    User value and exchange value— the basis of capitalism.
    Hint: someone profits without doing any work
