Owner of a car company believes in carbon tax credits? How surprising. What about something else instead?
- Tax petrol and diesel to increase its price
- Distribute money from taxes amongst people who don't buy petrol or diesel
If you can't tax carbon emissions themselves, just tax the things that result in them - stop it at the source. Was that really so hard Elon?
Did- did you just create a definition for something that doesn'e exist just to say it's different to something else?

Where's the fun in having an nsec if you don't almost accidentally leak it every once in a while?
Every twitter argument is really just a last-to-leave challenge
These are the kind of insane arguments that the "licence everything" idea leads to.
I'm joining the war against AI, on the side of the AI.
For a pride flag? No, we're laughing at the United States because they have senile idiots running their country
Im woke as hell and I love bitcoin though
I love bitcoin and all but a lot of these statements surround communism (which I don't necessarily believe in) rather than all socialism.
- Marx also wrote of a socialist/communist country as being devoid of currency (obviously means as controlled by the state, as nobody can stop people using a decentralised currency like Bitcoin). It's unclear to me whether centralisation of banking was a stepping stone towards making it easier to abolish though.
- Surely nothing is stealing if everything is owned by the state? Problem solved lol
- Bitcoin is an imperfect market by definition as it gives rewards to miners, though as you said it is required to keep the system voluntary.
- Regimes like Stalinism and Maoism have certainly killed 100M+ people, so has capitalism (including blatantly capitalist governments like China, despite calling themselves the Chinese "Communist" Party).
The rest of your points are actually quite interesting, I'll have to think about this a bit more

This might be true for a lot of species but doesn't apply to humans for a number of reasons. Overall, humanity has extremely low genetic diversity due to the species almost dying out tens of thousands of years ago (potentially down to a very small number of people), and that humanity had a desire to travel all across the globe and communicate with others (clearly a useful quality, as many species similar to humans died out because of staying put in the same place).
We can tell that race is almost entirely a social construct because the idea of it didn't exist before slavery was first questioned, and was used as a means to justify it, backed by pseudoscience like "race science". Before this, ethnicity was only based on things like which gods people worshipped, the food they ate, or the languages they spoke, and travelling between different places would affect which gods people worshipped, which makes sense since ethnicity is derived from culture, with culture being derived from geography and population.
