Fresh from pouring his money and energies into helping Donald Trump win reelection, Elon Musk has trained his sights on Europe, setting off alarm bells among politicians across the continent.
The Tesla and SpaceX chief executive has endorsed the far-right Alternative for Germany, demanded the release of jailed U.K. anti-Islam extremist Tommy Robinson and called British Prime Minister Keir Starmer an evil tyrant who should be in prison.
The solution to this is to stop putting our faith in government and live a more localized, tribal lifestyle.
Just gonna point out the obvious - this “tribal lifestyle” you speak of would be amazing… for about 1% of the population that would be happy with a subsistence agrarian lifestyle.
For the other 99% of us it would create more problems than it solves. How do you have any form of technology whatsoever without organisation, which requires regulation, and regulators, which we call government.
tribalism noun
-
the state or fact of being organized in a tribe or tribes
-
the behaviour and attitudes that stem from strong loyalty to one’s own tribe or social group
It doesn’t have to be a hunter-gatherer society. Focus on what’s around you instead of what’s far away. Local news. Local elections. Local businesses. Local friends.
That would work even less. Thats a breeding ground for oppression, lying, control of knowledge etc on a much bigger scale than we have today. Think the catholic church in the middle ages, or to go smaller incase of your tribalism, lords and small towns. It just wont work how you imagine it would
Any more of this and we all should be considering passing into law arsher anti social statutes, from any political quadrant or entity.
Really? A bunch of people didn’t vote and just let Trump win + the democratic party fucked up and didn’t learn from it. Elon Musk helped, but he wasn’t the deciding factor.
There’s not a single fucking “alarmed” politician in Europe, is there? 😂
Who didn’t see this coming? It was clear. These corrupted politics should be ashamed of what they did. No surprise that Europeans don’t trust their politics. They need to act (what they won’t do). They have to stand up and say GFY. Europeans, even if I’m not fine with the global idea, have all in their hands to use the US of Trump as a ladder to gain power and influences. They would put the US as a second country. But for this, they need to step up and manage their own way away from neolibs.
