Ian Davis explores the history of Technocracy Inc. and its connection to Elon Musk’s grandfather, Joshua Haldeman.

The segment highlights the parallels between these century-old plans and Musk's current technological initiatives.

The discussion traces Elon Musk's family history to his grandfather, Joshua Haldeman, who was involved with Technocracy Inc. in the 1930s. This movement sought to replace democratic governments with a "TechNate" run by appointed bureaucrats and technocrats across North America.

The discussion explores the family history of Elon Musk, specifically his grandfather Joshua Haldeman’s leadership in the Canadian branch of Technocracy Inc. Ehret details how Musk has adopted technocratic naming conventions and visions for a "Martian Technate," which align with the 1930s movement to replace government with a scientific elite. Musk is characterized as a branding projection managed by handlers rather than a self-generated genius.

Elon Musk’s maternal grandfather, Joshua Haldeman, was a prominent leader in Technocracy Incorporated, a 1930s movement seeking to replace politicians with scientists and engineers. Haldeman was arrested by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in 1940 for his involvement with the organization. This lineage suggests that Musk’s current ventures may be the fulfillment of a multi-generational technocratic agenda.

Research into Elon Musk’s grandfather, Joshua Haldeman, reveals his leadership in the Social Credit Party of Saskatchewan and his defense of "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion." Haldeman was a staunch supporter of technocracy and social credit theories in the 1940s, viewing them as a defense of "white Christian civilization." These historical ties suggest a deep ideological foundation for the technological systems Musk is currently developing.
