Elon Musk on the Great Replacement and Our Impending Extinction, By Brian Simpson

The Great Replacement is getting mention across the political lines. Thus, dissent righter Eva Vlaardingerbroek tweeted, "The Great Replacement is no longer a theory – it's reality." And Elon Musk took up the issue making the point that the "record low birth rates" … "are leading to population collapse in Europe and … most of Asia" but immigration is low in these countries. All true, but Musk is skating over two interrelated, but still distinct issues.

Musk is right that crashing fertility rates are worse in East Asia than the West, where birth rates ae very bad. That is true, but there is the added problem in the West of mass immigration, which the traitorous elites, and the White race above all else succeeds in producing race traitors like no-one else in existence, even on distant planets in other galaxies, want mass immigration to solve the problem for just the short term, and in the longer term, well it's the ZeroHedge/ Keynes motto of, we are all dead. So, the West has both problems, contrary to Musk's flawed reasoning.

It is suggested by German blogger Eugyppius, that dissents not make a noise about the birth dearth issue, as the elites will just ramp up mass immigration. That is mistaken, since they are doing it now, and would do it even if there was no shortage of births. The endgame really is White racial genocide.

"The Great Replacement is no longer a theory – it's reality," Eva Vlaardingerbroek tweeted last Saturday. Our voluble Dutch activist went on to observe that "White Europeans are being replaced in their own countries at an ever accelerating rate," concluding that this "will mean the end of our civilization if we don't turn things around." She attached a video of a speech she gave in Hungary rehearsing familiar arguments against mass migration.

Elon Musk responded by deploring the "record low birth rates" that "are leading to population collapse in Europe and … most of Asia":

The left would respond to Musk by explaining that mass migration is the only solution. We need more people, they'd say, and if we won't produce them ourselves, they must be imported. The alternative is bankrupt pension plans, labour shortages and in the longer term national extinction. The right most often counter with exhortations to marry and have kids, and with proposals to ease the economic burdens of parenthood – blaming secularism, contraception and feminism for the fertility decline. The left, meanwhile, responds that it is the rightists' racism and xenophobia which pose the real existential threats. This is a mutually-reinforcing, self-perpetuating discursive machine, which always makes me suspicious. The apocalyptic overtones should also put you on guard.

In what follows, I want to propose a different way of thinking about birth rates in the developed world. They are low and that is the cause of some very serious problems, but it's a bad idea to make a political issue out of low fertility specifically. First, we're not in charge of anything, and we must avoid as much as possible giving the technocrats yet another problem to solve. Their cure for this one – infinity asylees – is much worse than the disease.

Second, I very much doubt that there is any near-term solution, but I also doubt that present fertility rates in themselves are an existential crisis. The historical view suggests that our populations are still adjusting, demographically, to the effects of industrialisation. We must complete this transition on our own, however painful that may be, and then we must figure out what society will look like on the other side of it. None of that will be easy, and by opening our borders to the developing world we have made it much, much, much harder for ourselves. But I am getting ahead of myself."
