    In case someone thinks “Oh, he’s just an alt-right troll, he doesn’t actually believe in that stuff”, meet Elon’s grandfather:

    He became involved in Canadian politics, backing the technocracy movement, before moving to South Africa in 1950. Over the course of decades, Haldeman repeatedly expressed racist, antisemitic, and antidemocratic views.[1] In South Africa he was a supporter of apartheid and promoted a number of conspiracy theories.

        This in turn would necessitate the abandonment of democracy and the embrace of a technocracy—government by an unelected, technically skilled, empirically-driven elite with the expertise necessary to determine values and make rational resource-allocation decisions

        Sounds a lot like one of Elon’s beliefs, doesn’t it?

        Strange how people who think this way never assume they’ll be one of the people on the outside, letting others make the important decisions. Whenever there’s an elite, they imagine they’ll be part of that elite.
