Elon Musk slams “extinctionist movement” who see humans as a “Plague” (video)

“At a fundamental level you can think of things as a fight between expantionist and extinctionist philosophies”

Newsroom June 21 08:03

In a recent interview, Elon Musk warned that those who wish to see humanity thrive are in a fight against those with an “extinctionist” philosophy, environmental extremists who see humans as a “plague on the Earth.”

Musk was speaking to the Cato Institute about the “implosion of the birth rate,” noting that we should be “very concerned” because it is “accelerating in most countries.”

Elon Musk Issues Urgent Warning for Humanity

“If there are no humans, there’s no humanity.”

Musk says that we should be “very concerned” about imploding birth rates, which are “accelerating in most countries.”

The Space X owner continued, “In the sort of extreme form of the environmentalist movement, people start to view humans as a plague on the surface of the earth, as a fundamentally bad thing, and with the implication that if all humans disappeared, somehow earth would be better off.”

Musk labeled it “The Extinctionist Movement,” urging that “I think at a fundamental level, you can think of things as a fight between expansionist and extinctionist philosophies.”

“That’s what really matters. If humans go extinct or civilisation collapses, whatever policies we may have are irrelevant,” he further asserted.

Musk further stressed that civilisation and consciousness will end and everything will be left to robots unless we “have an expansionist philosophy.”

“We must seek to go beyond what we’ve done in the past to increase the number of humans,” Musk declared, adding “one way or another, this must happen.”

His final message to the world was “Go forth and multiply.”

It is a warning Musk has been repeating for some time now.

As we have previously highlighted, an alarming number of leftists have almost unwittingly embraced a fundamentally anti-human or trans-human philosophy held by elitist snobs, smearing anyone who suggests having babies is good as “far right.”
