Show Notes
Before Elon Musk was attempting to coup, his grandfather, Joshua N. Haldeman, was busy stirring up political trouble in 1930s Canada. This week, we explore how Haldeman went from chiropractor to outspoken leader of the Canadian technocracy movement—a radical political group that thought democracy needed to get phased out so an elite group of engineers and scientists could seize control of the entire North American continent.
We’ll break down his unconventional beliefs, his clashes with the government, and how his racsit ideas ultimately pushed him to leave Canada and start fresh in South Africa.
