Last night, news broke that Elon Musk has yet another pair of twin children sharing his name — a revelation that raises his brood number up to a total of nine (known) progeny.
Elon Musk, the wealthiest man in the world and one of its most influential, is a fervent believer in the theory of Population Collapse — the idea that, unlike claims of overpopulation, decades of supposed decreasing birth rates means we are actually heading towards an irreversible, unsustainable crisis in which we simply have too few “producers” in comparison to societal dependents. Unless we want an imminent “demographic implosion,” we need to “do our best” and breed like rabbits.
