Not defending Musk, but if
His dad exploited the earth
And he is trying to have humans use more clean energy

At least there’s that

I think we need to make a point of posting material critical of Musk on Twitter as often as possible and seeing how he responds.

How about we just agree that life kinda sucks for everyone involved, that suffering comes on it's own even without anyone willfully hurting one another and that the way to leave it behind has been established by various people in the past

I mean... Sure... Suffering is eternal, that doesn't mean we can't improve the conditions of man made systems that bind people in servitude to the direct benefit of others.

Otherwise i guess we should have kept slavery and Jim crow and never given women the vote or workers the weekend. Fuck it let's roll it back to feudal times, would fit well with the gold standard

"First there was a storm of carbon and molten rock.
And that begat granite and soil.
Then land shook and cracked and rose till it spiked the sky.
And forests grew and died.
And grew a hundred times again.
And people grew and died.
And grew a hundred times again.
There were storms and seasons, and fences and blood.
Wonder and vengeance and regret.
And the land and the sky didn't give two shits."

Improving systems that grew over 2000 years or more is such a complicated process that you can do a lot more wrong than right without noticing it

A trap I fell into that almost cost me my live

Sacrificing one's own peace of mind for the sake of supposed group advancement is not worth it

Love yourself first and foremost, then act out of that source of abundance that never seems to dries up if the internal conditions were set up right

Don't throw away the baby with the bathwater
