🚨 Elon Musk wants to BUILD HIS OWN CITIES — and END DEMOCRACY to do it. 🚨 Private laws, no government oversight, total control. This isn’t “freedom” — it’s a billionaire’s dystopian fantasy. If we don’t fight back NOW, we’ll be living in Musk’s kingdom. SHARE THIS — BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE! 🔥👊
Y'know I wish that article went into how planned cities like these *never* pan out. Doesn't matter the country, trying to "force" a city to happen has never worked.
Also who would pay for it? Taxpayers? The oligarchs? The corporations? Cuz building a whole ass city is expensive.
And there's also so many "Dubai"-type cities you can build for the elites. Especially ones you want to pander to upper-class white Christians. There's only so many of those types in the world, and so not all of these cities can succeed even on that front. It's a system that will fail inevitably.
"Musk is burrowing himself in this fantasy that the problem with Nazi Germany, Maoist China, and Stalinist Russia is not too little democracy, but too much of it. It's a fantasy too stupid to need debunking."
Also @shanley.com Has posted the most interesting reading.
She spent 12 years putting a compilation of literature together.
She really knows the way these people see the world and what they’re trying to accomplish, it’s pretty much a play-by-play of what’s happening now.
It’s a very interesting subject, sounds out there and easy to shoot down, but I would say not so fast on completely shooting it down.

Orwell's ‘1984’ explores a dystopian future where the Party, a totalitarian government, controls every aspect of life, including history and thought.
They manipulate all forms of information and rewrite history to maintain power, effectively creating a "Year Zero" where the past is irrelevant.
Look up Curtis Yarvin, he’s a favourite of Peter Thiel and Elon Musk. There’s also an odd connection with the ideology with the Koch’s company’s past in creating “Right to Work” laws that were passed to bust unions. Basically, it’s a club and we ain’t in it. We gotta fight for free will.
