I’ll personally be forever indebted for Neuralink(, he accelerated the occurrence of researchs/discoveries i intended to “waste” my life doing, so i owe him at least a decade of my life and that’s more than i owe anyone else in this regard), but androids/cyborgs will change absolutely everything(, even if we haven’t yet began) :

Don’t worry(, i know you don’t like E.Musk for… reasons, not sure why, every billionaire is a thief but no billionaires uses h.er.is stolen wealth more productively than him), China will soon do their own versions(, have you seen their progress in fusion b.t.w ? Welcome to the future gals/guys !)
Rather than breakdown everything you said which will not be fruitful and will look like a personal attack, instead I am just going to pick out one thing.
For the sake of your personal growth you need to figure out what is wrong with that sentiment.

EM is a reactionary transphobic white supremacist filth parading his version of crypto-eco-fascism. His main inadvertent highlight is saying the quiet bit out a loud and exposing liberals (including “left-liberals”) for what they really are. His admirers include fascists around the world from South/central American gusanos to the Indian hindutva cowards. He is also a proud amplifier of the genocide against palestinians to boot. You owe him nothing.
He’s transphobic but that’s the only point i’ll agree with you, he’s clearly not a fachist since he’s even in favor of direct democracy and is always talking about being driven by virtue. Even in international relations he’s weirdly not anti-China nor anti-Russia. But i guess it’d be better to stop here. Again, thank you very much for developing your point of view, even if i don’t agree.
I unfortunately haven’t synthetized my notes about neo-colonialism, but please tell me if you know better authors than : Jason Hickel, Ha-Joon Chang, Zak Cope, and Erik Reinert. I’m still shocked many years later to have discovered that western countries(, who had a headstart,) are still growing faster than so-called poor(exploited) countries. With the exception of the few countries who didn’t listened to the “unholy trinity” of the i.m.f., the world bank, and the w.t.o… And it’s weird that our closest political allies such as Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, or Israel, are coincidentally those who escaped the fate of every other country, if i’m skipping many arguments in the end i believe that the root of out problems is that we’re afraid of allowing potential enemies to develop, we want to keep our control, even at the expense of global equality, there’s perhaps also a bit of selfishness/nationalism of course.
