Elon Musk Just Called me Retarded - Here's Why
After I replied to a tweet suggesting that white people are “a rapidly dying minority” by asking a simple question — “Why is this a problem though?” — Elon Musk responded by calling me “retarded.”
Not with data.
Not with an argument.
Not even with a bad-faith attempt at reasoning.
Just a slur.
And that reaction tells us far more than any demographic chart ever could.
The Question That Broke the Spell
“What’s the problem?”
That’s it. That’s the entire question.
It’s so basic, so foundational, that it exposes the worldview behind all so-called “replacement” panic. Strip away the ominous language, the graphs, the breathless warnings, and you are left with an uncomfortable truth:
This fear is not about numbers.
It is about hierarchy.
If demographic change were neutral, if equality were genuinely embraced, then changing percentages would not matter. Cultures evolve. Cities change. Countries change. They always have.
So when someone insists that the growth or presence of non-white populations is inherently alarming, they are quietly admitting something else, they believe status, power, or legitimacy should be tied to race.
Demographics Are Not Destiny
Unless you believe in supremacy.
There is nothing inherently dangerous about a country becoming more diverse unless you believe that political power belongs to a particular group by birthright, that cultural legitimacy requires racial homogeneity, or that equality feels like loss.
None of those are empirical positions. They are emotional ones.
History does not support them. Democracy does not require them. And pluralistic societies do not collapse because people stop looking the same. They collapse when people are taught to fear one another.
The Real Tell
The most revealing part of this exchange is not the insult itself. It is what did not follow it.
No explanation of why diversity is bad.
No moral argument.
No defense of why “dying out” should alarm anyone in a multiracial democracy.
Final Thought
If asking “Why is equality a problem?” earns you an insult instead of an answer, you have already won the argument.
Because when someone cannot explain why a diverse future is dangerous, and can only sneer at those who ask, they reveal how hollow their position really is.
And no amount of wealth, followers, or amplification can change that.
I cheer for a vibrant multicultural multiethnic society partly because I have spent most of my life in the South and it honestly sucks here to be anything but a highly paid professional or ownership class.
This would be cause for celebration. Caucasians have caused way too many problems in the world. Elon is an anachronism. People like him are going the way of the dinosaurs.
