People forget a huge side of this as well. It's not just being financial able to have kids but physically able. More and more people now days are seeking fertility treatment and having fertility issues. According to elon, those people would not have the right to vote.
People who go to college and then university and then intern somewhere to get a junior position and then a senior position are in their mid 30s when they're in a stable enough position to plan for kids.
By contrast, a lot of people who are happy with a high school degree have kids before they're 20.
This is not a value judgment, but separating people by when they're having kids segments the population of into very distinct strata.
It's not hard to guess why a billionaire who's running a right-wing social media platform would prefer a certain demographic.
We waited until our 30s to have a child for a lot of reasons, and I'm glad we did it. We were more financially secure and had sowed our wild oats, so we were also not likely to go out and party. Elon was already financially secure when he had is first child. He has no idea how much a child costs in terms of money and in terms of what sort of life you want to live for most people.
He's so damn creepy. First the pedo thing, then the breeding thing, now this. I'm beginning to think Musk is the pedophile.
Not saying he isn't, because we know he's a sex offender, but I think the breeding thing is more about Great Replacement, which really boils down to racist megalomania.
Wait till he finds out, that parents are an ethnically much more diverse group than the general public.

It turns out he's a disingenuous shit-bag. But you didn't need me to tell you that.
No idea why people are still buying cars that this guy makes.
Despite being an early investor, there is no way in fuck I would but a Tesla. There are some good ideas in there but it is held back by shit quality control, using owners as alpha testers, and a fuck ton of hubris from the guy at the top.
He doesn't even care about his kids, let alone the future. It's all just a numbers game to inflate his ego based on dumb ideology.
How about instead we eliminate the voting rights (and eligibility to hold office or judgeships) of those who are within 10 years of their life expectancy? Childless middle-aged adults have a lot more stake in the state of the world they are going to be living in for the next 40-50 years than the old farts who are about to die.
Does this apply to boomers who no longer have kids that are under the age of 18? You mean they still get to vote? Then fuck off Elon no one wants to buy your stupid tesla coils.
What a huge shift from the real life Iron Man 10 years ago to some I don’t know what to say…
Remind me why this man hasn't been arrested and investigated by multiple alphabet agencies by now?
Because the justice system has been entirely corrupted to serve the interests of wealth.
Hey why stop there? Let's also not allow voting for people that have been disowned by their kids like musk has. And no voting for religious people who think earth is just a pit stop before heaven/hell so there's no need to improve life on earth at all.
I feel like "has children" probably correlates with "has stable income", which makes this classism by another name.
Just because he can't seem to have enough kids who hate him doesn't mean everyone does.
Oh, he's a piece of shit, alright. What where we thinking, holding this dude up as some kind of visionary?
at this point I'm not surprized, he gives a GIVE ME ATTENTION vibe hardcore, everything he does is against cultural standard.
Is this guy literally having a psychosis?
His actions lately (I say lately, loosely) have been absolutely batshit bonkers.
I'm enjoying the show none the less
It’s amazing he’s had sex 10 times. I don’t get what’s attractive about him in any form.
Money.
Miserable son of a bitch. Not all of us care to spit out litters of children like you do, Dutchie.
