The truth is always more complex than what our brains want it to be.

@JasonKander He doesn’t have that money like a Scrooge McDuck. That’s not how any of this works.

[Erik Voorhees @ErikVoorhees]

No, you don't get it.

He does not have $1 trillion sitting in cash, it is 99% stock in his companies.

To make that wealth liquid would mean selling all that stock which would swiftly destroy *both* the companies (Tesla, SpaceX, others) and the wealth. If he sold it all, he'd end up with maybe $100b max, several hundred thousand people would be out of work, the companies ruined and many of their suppliers also ruined.

Okay, but now Elon has $100b in cash, and can "solve the world's problems".

$100b divided by the world's 8 billion people is $12

If you were in charge, several of the most innovative industrial companies in the world would be destroyed, hundreds of thousands out of work, and space would again close to human civilization for another generation.

But everyone on earth could have one nice meal and you could revel in your altruism.

May Europe one day wake up and start striving for this level of capitalistic homerun. Dump the degrowth nonsense, celebrate progress, and once again reach for the stars.

In LOTR, the shire spent so long sheltered from evil that it began to think evil did not exist.

The west is like the shire.

We must save the shire.

Why is there always such passion for redistributing things created but zero passion for creating things in the first place??

[Konstantin Kisin @KonstantinKisin]

Strong allies are an asset. Since when did that become controversial?

America should put America first. Europe should put Europe first.

But the idea that America benefits from a weak, dependent, culturally insecure Europe is absurd.

A strong Europe isn't just one that spends more on military defence. It's one that defends free speech, secures its borders, has the confidence to preserve the values that made the West worth defending in the first place, and doesn’t sabotage its own future with unrealistic net zero policies that hollow out its industry while competitors race ahead.

There's no point being offended when Americans criticise us: when they're wrong, they're wrong and should be ignored and when they're right, they're right and we should change course accordingly.

This is what celebration looks like in Paris today.

Notice something. No progressive politician would tell their daughter to walk alone into this crowd. No feminist would feel comfortable here. No Jewish person would feel particularly welcome. And yet we are constantly told that this is the future of diversity and inclusion.

While European cities become increasingly hostile to women, Jews, and gays, Western politicians like AOC put on the hijab and celebrate the very ideology driving much of this regression.

They chant "my body, my choice" while defending cultures that deny women the most basic freedoms.

These pseudo-feminists are among the dumbest people in modern politics. They condemn patriarchy in the West while making excuses for societies built upon it.

[Sonia Sodha @soniasodha]

Why doesn’t this BBC story examine why there’s a market for fathers selling their young daughters to other men in the first place? What a strange omission - it’s like the reality that these girls are being sold as child brides to be raped by adult men is invisible or something.

@elonmusk Thorough geological inspection!

[Jonatan Pallesen @jonatanpallesen]

I agree that smartphones, and the social media apps, have likely had some contribution to the birth rate crisis.

That said, here is something else that also happened in European cities since 2007:

Here is the price development of a 75m^2 apartment in Copenhagen Denmark. (Eg one that is barely even large enough to have children in.)

2008: $180k
2017: $500k
2026: $1 million

It is intuitive to me that if people can't afford apartments with space for children until late in their career, they will have fewer of them.
