Elon Musk

October 9, 2022

Elon Musk’s style may look tricksterish. That's understandable. He is an innovator, ergo disruptor and disruption is sometimes undistinguishable from tricksterism. Content-wise though the problem with Musk is that he's creating new stuff. That he is a non-violent entrepreneur.

Don't get me wrong. I think that innovators do not get nearly enough credit for what they doing. I even noticed a weird pattern: people tend to shittalk the most about that specific industry their city/state is especially dependent upon. Still, the non-violent business has a problem

And the problem with the non-violent business is that it is non-violent. Which means it is *outsourcing* violence and therefore security. Indeed, all of Elon Musk's proposals suddenly make sense if you assume they are written by a businessman who is outsourcing security of his empire

There is violence going on? Bad, very bad. Violence is a liability. Let's just stop it. How? By signing a "deal". With whom though? With a *violent* businessman who's doing this violence. Sounds incredible but this is exactly how a non-violent businessman's brains are working

And that is why the non-violent businessmen have been crawling on their knees before the violent ones for the 99% of recorded human history

NB: This is assuming that the violent businessmen would even allow the non-violent ones to exist (which is far from granted)

Still, if Musk exists, that means he has not been selected out. Ergo, his strategy worked out. Why? Because he lived in an artificial, abnormal environment which selected out the *violent* entrepreneurs, allowing the non-violent ones to flourish

A beautiful anomaly

How is the US environment abnormal? That's easy to explain. What shocked me in the US is that so many (real) crypto investors etc are very outspoken about their business activities in social media. They literally write about being crypto holders in their social media

Unbelievable
