Elon Musk is the most important human on the plane right now.

There is no one alive right now that I would trade for. If Elon was held hostage, I would trade any living human for his release.

He may also be the only ADULT in the room. Which is ironic because he at times behaves like a nerdy child but there it is. Elon gets it. He knows what humanity needs and he goes after it. Everyone else is just wasting resources.

If you truly understand what the Earth is, where it is, where we live in the universe and how reality outside of Earth works - to the best of our knowledge - then you get why Elon is so important.

A special message to the… delightful people going on and on about the “salute”: I would trade you all at once, not to get Elon free were he captured, but just to get him a single potato chip while negotiations begin. Elon needs that potato chip.
