Here's Your Unique Take on Elon Musk's Views on Coronavirus
Written on
Chapter 1: The Misguided Savior
In recent remarks, Elon Musk told his employees that they shouldn't work from home, arguing that their chances of dying from COVID-19 were lower than those of dying in a car crash. Essentially, he implied that everyone is overreacting and urged them to return to the office. This perspective has led employees to dub his company "SlaveX."
Musk's comments reflect a troubling attitude toward the value of human life. He seems to underestimate the seriousness of the pandemic, suggesting that individuals should not be concerned about their health. Yet, no one is equating the risk of dying in a car accident with the dangers posed by the coronavirus.
Companies have chosen to allow remote work as a means to mitigate the spread of the virus, which is not just about individual risks. It’s about protecting our loved ones—our parents, grandparents, and the most vulnerable members of society. Each person has a role to play in safeguarding others.
Elon is not merely a businessman but an ideologue with a grand vision of humanity. He imagines a future where we all drive Tesla vehicles to SpaceX launch sites, aiming to establish colonies on Mars. History has shown us the dangers of such ideologues who prioritize their vision over the lives of individuals.
Allow me to acknowledge Musk's supporters:
- Yes, he is often viewed as infallible;
- Yes, he is credited with the design and construction of every Tesla and SpaceX product (which makes one wonder how he manages a workforce);
- Yes, even Chuck Norris is said to admire him.
We understand the admiration, but perhaps the world could do with fewer self-proclaimed saviors of humanity launching rockets. While we might one day rely on Musk's technology for our survival, that day is not today. For now, humanity simply needs him to reconnect with the essence of being human.
