“The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy, the empathy exploit,” Musk said. “There it’s they’re exploiting a bug in Western civilization, which is the empathy response.”
-Elon Musk, Feb 28, 2025“In my work with the defendants (at the Nuremberg Trials 1945-1949) I was searching for the nature of evil and I now think I have come close to defining it. A lack of empathy. It’s the one characteristic that connects all the defendants, a genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow men. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.”
-Captain G. M. Gilbert, the Army psychologist assigned to watching the defendants at the Nuremberg trials

Americans are still in the dark about the scope and scale of what Elon Musk is doing with DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency, which is working to drastically shrink the size of government by aiming to cut $1 trillion or more in government spending.

Empathy is an essential component of a theory of mind, that is that you understand the consequences of your own behavior for others than any way you choose to think about it physical or emotionally or socially.
Elon Musk, wealth, embrace the traits of psychopathy as a virtue, essentially, assuming or asserting that it’s true human nature to become a master in the world slaves. That subjugating others is true human nature.

Men like Elon only care about a theory of mind in is so much as it allows them to figure out how to get people to do what they want and how to get out of people what they want.
That is their basic mode of operation.
These are individuals who feel no obligation to integrity. That sentiment is holy absent from the psychic make up.

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @nazgul "He likes this notion of helping humanity," Isaacson told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour in 2023. "In fact, he has more empathy for humanity in general than he often has for the 20 people around him."
If he doesn't actually care for the 20 people around him, his concept of humanity is unmoored from reality.

@foolishowl @GhostOnTheHalfShell @nazgul Reminds me of Reggie Watts's song about narcissistic people which touches on the objectification of women “I like the concept of a woman. I like to take that concept and reduce it to an object.”
Except, with Elon, it's the objectification of humanity, presumably to force fit his personal vision of what it should look like according to Iain M. Banks's science fiction books, the Culture series.
