    The Wall Street Journal reported as part of a story detailing the billionaire’s mega plans to have a “legion” of children to address the issue of declining human population

    I absolutely could not believe that this is true. This has to be someone misunderstanding or exaggerating something. Even Elon Musk is not this psychotic.

    From https://www.huffpost.com/entry/elon-musk-ashley-st-clair-legion-babies_n_67ffef3ee4b0485a7732a835 is this:

    Elon Musk is directly messaging women on his social media platform, X, to solicit them to have his babies in order to grow a “legion” of kids with high intelligence as part of his mission to save “civilization,” The Wall Street Journal reports.

    Sources told WSJ that Musk, who currently has at least 14 children with four women, wants to build a “legion” of children because he believes “civilization is going to crumble” due to declining birthrates.

    I still can’t believe that it’s real.

      Yes, Elmo Musk IS that psychotic, he always has been.

      I’ve been yelling about this scammer for a decade, I just never figured he’d get this far before people would catch on

      I have heard this before. He’s got a bizarre eugenics fetish and thinks that more billionaires need to have more kids because they’re billionaires have superior genes as evidenced by being billionaires. Fucking weird.

        i remember first hearing him like this on one of those amber heard cases. and from that, it’s not hard to think he’d go to this extent.

    A Cryptocurrency reporter, born in 1994, lost $200,000 when Celsius went bankrupt. Her post about that went viral. Later she interviewed SBF while he was under house arrest. She disclosed some of the records he shared with her to the NYT.

    Saved you a click.

    I still think EM’s way with women is just great. If you’re a complete loser who’s never talked to women.
