ELON: WE SHOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT BECOMING TOO MUCH OF A SINGLE WORLD GOVERNMENT “I think we should be a little bit concerned about becoming too much of a single world government. We want to avoid creating a civilizational risk by having, this may sound a little odd, too much cooperation between governments. All throughout history, civilizations have risen and fallen, but it hasn't meant the doom of humanity as a whole, because there have been all these separate civilizations that were separated by great distances. And so, while Rome was falling, Islam was rising. So, you had the Caliphate doing incredibly well while Rome was doing terribly, and that actually ended up being a source of preservation of knowledge and of many scientific advancements. I think we want to be cautious about being too much of a single civilization, because if we are too much of a single civilization, then the whole thing may collapse. We want to have some amount of civilizational diversity such that if something does go wrong with some part of civilization, that the whole thing doesn't collapse and humanity keeps moving forward.” Source: World Government Summit Dubai, February 2023
