Musk plans to take a million people to a self-sustaining base on Mars so humanity can survive extinction on Earth.
His posts say he needs 20-30 years - and is in a rush as technological society may not survive long enough.⬇️
It seems backing Trump, Reform, AfD to kill net zero is his accelerant.

So says SpaceX head of legal, who’s drafting the Martian constitution as Musk claims Mars as a free planet outside Earth jurisdiction.
Musk is a megalomaniac on such a scale many journalists and politicians can’t take him in.
Maybe look to the past - what plans behind the hyperloop or solar roof tiles or cave submarine? Or present - how much wealth is in the over-valuation of TSLA?
I wish more people realised that his main philosophy is longtermism
A "self-sustaining" mars colony is a ketamine fever dream. It's not happening in 20 years or 2000 years.
The guy's either an interplanetary snake oil salesman or a total idiot.
I know which my money's on.
All of them white, all of them existing at the whim of whoever controls the oxygen and water generators so doing and believing exactly what they are told to stay alive. Yes, that tracks. He is making himself a new Garden of Eden populated in his own image.
Before he does more damage would be best.

This not a journey of the pilgrims on the Mayflower.
Humanity will survive far better if we send him and the rest of our billionaires to Mars on a one way trip.
Well duh…
🤔 Wait ! That might be a good thing‼️😏😏

Please go now!!
Musk & Trump and the whole selfish MAGA world can be shipped off to mars ASAP before there’s nothing left on earth.
Enough to sustain us for generations, IF we collectively commit to taking care of it.
Earth is easy. If we can’t make it work, we will never make any other planet work.
Oh wait, none of that exists just like none of this Mars colony bs will ever exist.
Surviving bone depletion in lower gravity. Reproducing in lower gravity.
Maybe one day, but Musk trashing Earth to rush to Mars is deranged.
And Trump, Reform UK, AfD will kill net zero for the guy.
But Trump has backed him going to Mars, at the same time as killing net-zero investment and giving Musk control of the federal budget.
Musk is going to need a lot of money to send tens of thousands of these. Even if Mars fails and Earth’s climate collapses.⬇️
But all this talk about a permanent colony is a complete fantasy.
It makes the point: ”discourse [on Mars settlement] needs more realism–not in order to ruin everyone's fun, but to provide guardrails against genuinely dangerous directions for planet Earth.”

"Do you have a low-cost plan for, uh, creating a gigantic active dynamo at Mars's dead core? No? …some other workable, sustainable plan for shielding live Mars inhabitants from deadly solar and cosmic radiation, forever?"

If they could leave inmediately, I wouldn't object, it would just be far easier to cut the cord and let them survive on their own.
But it is so much simpler to put them on trial, no?
That can only happen with fascism.
Trump is effectively redirecting net zero money to Mars - and has given Musk control of the federal budget to kill development aid and lots more.
Here’s what Musk’s AI bot Grok said about the connection. ⬇️
Former Tesla VP George Blankenship said everything Musk does is for Mars.
I could see how killing net zero would help him. Grok had the same conclusions, so better to expose Musk with his own AI.
Any better explanation?
his plan is literally impossible for actual reasons.
we will see a tesla full self drive long before ;)

It looks like they’ve killed NASA returning to the moon to prioritise Mars.
Put them in charge of UEFA, and they could bankrupt it in a couple of years. Interplanetary travel is certainly beyond their ken, yeah?
They need to read this book. At least the first 6 pages!
