Be extremely skeptical. The ruling class operates in dialectics. Whatever synthesis they want they create by bringing order out of two opposing forces of chaos. Elon could easily be the backdoor. His interest in transhumanism is not encouraging. His hate of anonymity and love of digital ID is not encouraging. His affinity for corporate welfare is not encouraging. His dependence on the federal government is not encouraging. And so on. Stick to your principles. Don’t let anyone lead you away from them.
