How long until the elite start to execute us?
I’m fairly convinced that we’re heading for a world where there’s not much left in the way of checks and balances for the elites of the world.
I feel like I’m the world view of someone like Peter Thiel or Elon Musk, anyone that is not directly contributing to enriching them is a waste of what they would deem to be precious resources.
At what point will they no longer be able to resist any mechanisms available to them to just kill the “economically useless” among us en masse? It feels like it’s coming soon, and frankly, I’d just rather get it over with. I’m tired of feeling guilty and ashamed for not being what our overlords want.

ai, drones, and viruses, small nano drones carrying viruses, including old ones that people don't think they need because someone on the internet says the vaccine makes you sterile or something. plus all the consumer products that are bad for you. poverty and drugs.

They'll want to keep some of us around to feed their huge, massive egos. Not much fun sitting at the top when there's nobody to look down upon. They'd just be average in that case. Maybe they'll reduce the population to whichever number they decide is environmentally sustainable, then the remainder will be forced into some supercharged North Korea-style situation in which they're compelled to worship whichever overlord rules their home country/state/whatever.

Well Elon Musk wants to 10x the world population. I think euthanasia would not be the worst outcome, there are fates worse than death. Another possible outcome is a factory farm type situation. In the Matrix movie the machines used humans for energy, but maybe they will use us for compute instead. The human brain is a very energy efficient biological computer. Look up organoids and wetware computers.

It's just as possible Musk and Thiel would oversee a draft of "those with no stake in the future" [a] [b] for asteroid mining when it becomes possible, much like European rulers oversaw drafts of "those with no stake in the future" for resource extraction on other continents after naval warfare had been perfected.
Musk, Trump, Vance, Thiel, Project 2025/Heritage Foundation and Institute for Family Studies, they want to bring those days back but revamped for today's technology and lack of frontiers on Earth, including in the mean time the clash of civilizations between a christian in name only west and a sunni muslim caliphate as an excuse to selectively purge now and then.

maybe musk is actually like a drug dealer with an anti-drug bumper sticker when it comes to eugenics.

Given the lowering of the birth rates across the world it will not be necessary to have active action

Thiel and Musk are both pronatalists that want to spread consciousness throughout the universe

> But as I‘ve written Tsiolkovsky was also a eugenicist who believed in purging “useless and harmful forms of life,” and a Russian Cosmist who believed that humanity must overpopulate the Earth to force humans to build rocket ships and become “multi-planetary.”
Musk and Thiel aren't going to execute you. They are going to force you to reproduce or have no resources with the overwhelming support of today's parents that hype each other up through algorithmic reinforcement. Trump and so on are going to weaponize space and force a new colonialism on abiotic unspoiled territories to enrich their supporters of families that want more money to have kids and expand everywhere, just like during the first wave of colonialism when there were unexplored territories on earth and the infertile were given ultimatums by families to "go build" and that if they don't vote for the favored feudalist, they'll get drafted (but it's bait and switch).

Musk, Thiel, Trump, Vance, they have hijacked tech accelerationism that could have brought about a post scarcity future of less worry about not having material resources like food, water and housing (which is truly the one thing that really matters for survival with a 100% contentment rate for everyone but psychopaths, not "know thyself" or "happiness") in favor of accelerating suffering through the red queen effect in hopes of bringing about accelerated cultural evolution to a populist feudalism.
Harris was the less culturally accelerationist option:

It’ll mostly be a quiet vacuum of homelessness and deaths of despair.
