If change happens it will come from the para-elite. High IQ whites stepping up to provide solutions that those now in charge shy away from. Am disgusted, but not surprised, by the lack of sane or decent voices regarding the current unrest. I am a strong believer in law and order, but the pearl clutching over the riots turns my stomach as does does the lack of empathy. It is astonishing that people who supported "necklacing' in South Africa etc get offended by a bit of unruly behaviour from people whose neighbours kids have been knifed to death.

There are essentially no sane voices within conventional politics. Musk and the other tech bros, however, are quite clearly conducting politics by informal means, and having a huge impact on the culture. If there's hope for a counter-elite, right now, it lies with them.

No, it doesn't. Musk is no good guy. He's never done anything but sponge off the public.
