Elon Musk, the entrepreneur who serves as CEO of Space X, Tesla, and Twitter, reacted harshly after Klaus Schwab, the chairman of the World Economic Forum, preached at the WEF’s summit about an attempt to “master the future.”

Schwab, the world’s leading proponent of “stakeholder capitalism,” made his remarks while at an awards ceremony for “cultural leaders” who have worked to promote things like climate change.

“We couldn’t meet at a more challenging time,” Schwab declared. “We are confronted with so many crises simultaneously. What does it need to master the future? I think to have a platform, where all stakeholders of global society are engaged; governments, business, civil society, young generation, and I could go on, I think is a first step to meet all the challenges.”

Musk lacerated Schwab and his cobelligerents, tweeting, “‘Master the Future’ doesn’t sound ominous at all. How is WEF/Davos even a thing? Are they trying to be the boss of Earth!?”

“Master the Future” doesn’t sound ominous at all … 🙄

How is WEF/Davos even a thing? Are they trying to be the boss of Earth!?

The WEF, which was founded by Schwab, states that its mission is to “demonstrate entrepreneurship in the global public interest while upholding the highest standards of governance. … Our activities are shaped by a unique institutional culture founded on the stakeholder theory, which asserts that an organization is accountable to all parts of society.”

That, in essence, means corporations are no longer accountable to their shareholders, instead serving “societal aspirations,” as the the Davos Manifesto acknowledges.

During the WEF’s meeting, American leaders have reportedly enjoyed a lavish lunch with some of the planet’s most powerful corporate leaders and Schwab.

Officials such as Gov. Brian Kemp (R-GA), Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ), Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE), and “a few members of the House of Representatives” took part in a luncheon at the conference alongside prominent executives on Monday, according to a report from CNBC.

One attendee told the outlet that Coons and Manchin each addressed the crowd of business leaders. Coons reportedly discussed efforts to fund the Ukrainian war effort against Russia, while Manchin commented on the merits of American energy independence.

Coons told the outlet that “about 50 CEOs” would attend the luncheon at the Hotel Schatzalp, a property situated in the Alps and decorated in belle époque style. Among the executives in attendance at the lunch was Hewlett Packard Enterprise CEO Antonio Neri.

Oscar-winning actor Richard Dreyfuss said he gave up his “blessed life” because his country needed saving, telling radio personality Glenn Beck that he was infuriated by the number of Americans who “don’t understand what this place means.”

Dreyfuss joined Beck in an interview to discuss his book — “One Thought Scares Me… We Teach Our Children What We Wish Them to Know; We Don’t Teach Our Children What We Don’t Wish Them to Know” — and the state of his country, which he believed was dire.

“I gave up something I loved, and had loved since I was nine years old,” the “Mr. Holland’s Opus” star began. “Only for something else I loved as much, which was saving my country.”

“And I firmly believe that if we don’t revive the study of civics, we will be dead before 2050,” Dreyfuss continued. “We’ll have the same name —”

“Long before,” Beck agreed.

“— and it will be a nightmare,” Dreyfuss concluded.

“So I had led a blessed life,” Dreyfuss said — and by all accounts, he did. At 29 years old, he was the youngest to win a Best Actor Oscar for his turn as a struggling actor in the 1977 film “The Goodbye Girl.” He received another Best Actor nod for 1996’s “Mr. Holland’s Opus,” but lost to Nicolas Cage — who earned the nomination for his role in “Leaving Las Vegas.”

“And I gave it up for a blessed life,” the actor said of his transition to activism of sorts, going on to say that while his book may have fallen short with regard to saying everything that needed to be said, he felt like it was the best possible snapshot of where he was.

“It infuriates me that people don’t understand what this place means,” Dreyfuss added, his voice breaking. “What an advance on human progress this country is all about, and how quickly we can abandon it without — without a second thought.”

Dreyfuss went on to explain that one of the many things that concerned him was the attitude so many people had toward opposing views – namely that any opposing view was an attack and even more than that, was unAmerican.

“They don’t know that opposing views are entwined and threaded through the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and what we show to the world we believe in,” Dreyfuss said. “You know, there’s a very simple thing, and it’s – these documents tell the world who we are and why we are. And we say because they are works in progress, they tell us who we want to be when we grow up.”
