What's Mything: Taking Aim!

The threads entwining technocracy and tyranny...

What a story — clewing into the coup!

🧶 Tugging on the threads from over 100 years ago, at the turn of the 20th century, we find scientists and engineers proposed a new world order: governance by technical experts rather than politicians.

🧶 This movement — entangled in the 19th century scientific management theories of Frederick Taylor and the socialist-technocratic ideals of Henri de Saint-Simon — argued that economic and social systems should be controlled by a ruling elite of scientists and engineers.

🧶 In 1919 William Henry Smyth coined the term "technocracy.” Smyth was an American engineer and consulting engineer in Berkeley, California.

🧶 By 1932, Howard Scott formalized these ideas into Technocracy Incorporated.

🧶 Technocracy Incorporated grew as an organization gaining traction in both Canada and the United States, attracting intellectuals, industrialists, and futurists. One of its key leaders in Canada was Joshua Haldeman, an outspoken advocate for scientific governance. However, as World War II raged, governments became increasingly wary of Technocracy’s anti-democratic ideology, fearing it could lead to dictatorship by corporate elites.

🧶 In 1941, Canada banned Technocracy Incorporated, driving its leaders underground. Haldeman, unwilling to give up his technocratic dreams, moved his family to South Africa in 1950, where he found a welcoming environment among apartheid-era elites.

🧶 In South Africa, Haldeman integrated into the white supremacist ruling class, benefiting from a society built on racial exploitation and state-controlled capitalism.

🧶 Haldeman’s daughter, Maye, later married Errol Musk, an engineer and real estate developer who invested in lucrative mining operations, including emerald mines—profiting from South Africa’s racially stratified economic system.

🧶 On June 28, 1971, Elon Musk was born into this world of extreme privilege, raised amid the wealth and social networks built by technocratic and apartheid-era elites.

🧶 After apartheid collapsed in the early 1990’s, Errol Musk and other white South African elites moved their wealth offshore, allowing Elon to rebuild his family’s empire under the guise of technological innovation.

🧶 Elon Musk moves to the U.S. in 1995 attending the University of Pennsylvania, studying physics and economics.

🧶 By the 2000’s Musk had created a vast corporate empire tied to many government contracts and direct roots in his grandfather’s technocratic ideals:

  • Zip2 (1995): Musk co-founded Zip2, an online business directory, as an online alternative to the standard paper yellow pages. (Google would not launch until 1998.)

  • X.com (1999): Musk Co-founded X.com, a direct bank.

  • PayPal (2000): X.com merged with Confinity to form PayPal with Peter Theil (who also lived in South Africa and eventually brought Trump’s VP Vance into politics).

  • US Citizen (2002): Musk acquired citizenship and thereafter eBay acquired PayPal for $1.5 billion.

  • SpaceX (2002): Privatizing space travel, removing government oversight.

  • Tesla (2003): Automating transportation and energy infrastructure.

  • Neuralink (2015): Merging AI with the human brain.

  • Starlink (2019): Elon Musk's SpaceX began launching Starlink satellites.

  • Twitter/X (2022): Buys Twitter seizing control over a primary channel of global discourse and information.

🧶 Musk finances 2024 Presidential Election campaign for Trump and uses his social media X platform to propagate misinformation.

🧶 With Trump’s 2024 re-election, he appointed Elon Musk as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) which Musk created and named after his Dogecoin cryptocurrency.

🧶 Inaguration day for project 2025 with the heads of the most advanced digital technology and media companies sitting behind Trump.

🧶 Trump moves into The White House — the Technocratic Coup has begun.

  • The first thing to go missing from the official White House website The United States Constitution.

  • Elon Musk’s private personal business team takes control of the US Treasury’s payment system.

  • And this is only the beginning…

🧶 Roll over Democracy and get out of the way of the Oligarchs, the new improved Technocracy Incorporated 2025 is here to stay… so they say.

🧶 P.S. Not exactly the eleprocon kinconspiracy that was unraveling in 1979, nor how we imagined 2025 would be all about! But that’s a different story with a twist that weaves us a step further into the noosphere, the commons of mind, where the mythelium has taken root in our AI — ancestral, artful and yes, artificial intelligence as we now call it…
