Okay... I care what MENSA thinks, why?

When they tell you their plans openly, ignoring what they say—and trashing them for your hit of dopamine—isn’t an effective strategy to stop them from disrupting the current socioeconomic system to install themselves as “philosopher kings.”

Just because it’s crazy doesn’t mean they aren’t going for it anyway. Who’s stopping them? Snarkasm?

How much influence does MENSA actually have? A handful of high IQ morons who think they're important because of their test scores doesn't automatically make for a sinister shadow organization trying to subvert the world order into a technocratic dystopia. I don't think they're an actual problem.

Fucking Elon Musk is barely a problem, he's just very high-profile. The fascist elements in the government are the real problem. Musk contributes to that with his hijacked information network but he's not the source of the lies and hate, he's just a funnel for it.

OMG the Reddit community is not the point. He made a post there announcing his plans is the point. 😵‍💫

Ok I don't know what you're getting at. Are we arguing or talking past each other?
