Silicon Valley’s elite made their billions through luck, not genius. But as the public turns on them, they want to protect their privilege, so they’re trying to convince us they’re inherently superior.

For Disconnect, I explain how billionaires like Elon Musk are bringing eugenics back by promoting effective altruism, longtermism, and pronatalism. The goal is to cement their position at the top, and we need to stop them.

@parismarx Great stuff - @davetroy has also written stark stuff about Elmo's longtermism. We must organize an effort to counter the power of these creeps & ensure US passes policies to limit the power of tech monopolies, to ensure social media & media are not totally owned by private equity & eugenicist narcissists with Caesar Augustus haircuts & a penchant for world domination.
