The tech titan, Elon Musk, erupted like a volcano of indignation after a certain publication dared to suggest he’d abandoned Tesla to chase digital dog bones—a thinly veiled jab at his involvement with DOGE. Investors, the article claimed, were sharpening their pitchforks over his divided attention. Musk, never one to swallow insults quietly, fired back with the ferocity of a SpaceX rocket misfire.
"This isn’t journalism—it’s sabotage wrapped in newsprint," Musk seethed, accusing the outlet of omitting Tesla’s board’s vehement denial. To him, the act wasn’t just sloppy—it was “a felony against the truth.” His words hung in the digital air like smoke after a Tesla battery test gone awry.
But the billionaire’s wrath wasn’t reserved for corporate gossip. He’s long been a prophet of another looming catastrophe, one whispered in boardrooms but shouted from his Twitter pulpit: the global baby bust.
Musk’s warnings about plummeting birthrates—especially in China—aren’t new. To him, collapsing demographics are “a slow-motion asteroid” hurtling toward civilization. While others fret over recessions or AI uprisings, he sees empty nurseries as humanity’s true existential threat. “No babies, no future,” he’s quipped, with the grim humor of a man who’s colonized Mars on paper but can’t fix Earth’s stork shortage.
His critics scoff, calling it a distraction. Yet Musk doubles down, framing the issue with the urgency of a SpaceX launch countdown:
Love him or loathe him, Musk remains a master of turning headlines into hurricanes. Whether battling media dragons or demographic doom, he’s never far from the eye of the storm—or the meme.
