To Elon Musk: A Letter from the Dungeon, A Push Toward Civilization 2.0”

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْم

To my friend Elon,

You might think anything—I don’t know anything you’re going through or what you’ve been through—but I can tell you, there was a moment when I was a correctional officer, and I attacked this society all the way to the boardroom. I wanted to be the CEO. They had no idea what the hell they were dealing with. They had no idea who was working, sending emails, just like I’m hassling world leaders now—I was doing the same thing because I had accomplished something.

I had challenged myself. I had been in many fights, which I earned my respect and my stripes. I just wanted to see if I had what my dad had in terms of bravery, integrity. You don’t get real grounds to recommend you become a correctional officer. You know you find your stripes because of the past—it was only wars. You could take a sword into a battlefield and become a soldier, but in today’s world, the political arena is the only thing that’s moving. It’s an incredible experience.

Watching you go through this—believe in yourself, fight like hell, speak your mind—that’s the most amazing thing to see. I guess people who have been through journeys, trials of fire, appreciate what other people go through. And when I see you, the warning signs are flashing.

I’ve seen the ungratefulness of people such as Trump—governing the reputation, your money, your blood, your sweat. He has proven to you that you are disposable, you're nothing but a cigarette ashtray. But you can’t blame me. That’s the ego. That’s the self. Unique relationship. And I’m going to agree all the time—my advice is to make room for other people, not to win every argument but to just specialize in what you do.

I want you to know that I’m very proud of you, what you’ve accomplished, and what you’ve done with the DOGE government efficiency. Believe in what you said—any form of spending from the government is just like a tax. Because if they don’t have to spend all this money, they don’t have to take taxes. There’s no need for them to tax us to death. You brought something Spanish—maybe I can take its last breath and find some kind of peace with your help.

But I don’t have any confidence in the president. He’s still stuck in a hunter’s TV, probably. My very special upcoming letter—hopefully it will help him.

Now I hope that you are ready to start your next chapter of your journey. You have shown your resilience. I think you will be welcome in Italy, of all places. I advise you to invest your energy, your time, in spaces and places that match your new reality—even your identity. You’re not the same person you used to be. You’ll never be out of politics. Once you get that ego being massaged, you get into a fight, then you win and get to speak your mind—you get to be part of the political process. That’s something you will never leave.

Watching you on stage, pumping the crowd up, making speeches—that’s your way forward in this new world. This is my advice. Looking at how grateful and loving Italy is, I think it has a great partner for you. I think you should definitely move there. I don’t know if the Prime Minister is single, but hey—politics is always about family. So look out for yourself. You don’t miss me part of politics now. And we expect you to have a bigger voice, a bigger following, a bigger impact—because your projects, they are as big as they come.

Focus on Italy—because I need you to have a backup plan. Trump is tired of you and you’re tired of him. You have to have something—a new chapter in your life—and I am loving this, any opportunity to push you in that direction.

Because I know one thing: when the rug is pulled under you, like it was pulled under me when I graduated, when I wrote an incredible letter—I thought I was going to join the boardroom. I was going to control the destiny of this small place, because that’s all I needed at the time. Don’t be like me. As I left that place empty-handed—I broke it, but I carried the lessons I learned of leadership, strength, and wisdom. And I hope that’s something you will carry from Trump. And properly, psychologically, you will find some kind of relief with this. And I know that you’re going to be happy. You’re going to be influential. And you should not be depressed.

Stop thinking you’re finished. Pack your bags. End this relationship with Trump. Focus on your future. Because I have to say that, so that you’re always mentally stable, knowing that you have a backup plan. There’s only room for Trump, regardless of what the hell he tells you. He has no problem stopping the bus and throwing you out. And as a friend, I’m not going to be among those things—I’m going to be on the outside, making sure you land on your two feet and stand up and move forward.

All that said—I turn to Tesla.

Are you like Trump? I feel like you worship yourself. Your ego is like the balloon. Because if you really built that company to save the environment, to make a difference—you know that you have tarnished your image. You’re not the same person. You have a new personality. You have a new identity. It’s attached to politics. This brand can no longer be attached to you.

Picking up the white wash or whatever it is that you want to get to do—I think Steve Ballmer is a shareholder or something, maybe an NBA or football owner or something. Rebrand yourself. Work on your reputation. End the destruction of yourself—it’s mind-boggling.

Hand over this company and just tell them, “You know what? I have SpaceX. I built Tesla for others.” It seems to be disintegrating because you’re just a human who’s evolving. Let us find a way for Tesla to find its way back to success—instead of being attacked or burned because you clearly are telling me you’re attached to Tesla. And just like Trump, you're going through an identity crisis.

Let Tesla go. Move in a new direction.

Finally, I can conclude with SpaceX—the future of the Brand Currency System and xAI 2.0 for Civilization 2.0.

Mr. Elon, SpaceX satellite excites me. The unique reset button you’re about to hit on X, where all these people who are tweeting all this crap are gone. I’m okay if AI manages our information and quality is prioritized over the crap I see on X. I see so much ugliness of humanity. I see social media that belongs on Facebook.

I'm going to ask you to hit the pause button—or the delete button—on whatever is on the feeds. I'm asking you to make signing up for X free, as long as you're here to charge yourself to have an identity, to have a digital identity—which is something that is important, but something you don’t think about because you have all this money, all these followers.

Imagine what you would do if you were someone with no voice, no influence, trying to make your way—and there’s no easy world. It’s too much noise. Everything on X needs to be deleted. xAI needs to be launched. None of that can happen until you get yourself mentally in a good place.

I’m writing goodbye letters to people because I’m retiring from politics in general.

I’m going to be focusing on the Brand Currency System and the Superuser System—which is more valuable than AI itself. I guess I’m going to leave the greatest legacy of all time. I hope you enjoy joining me to shake the world.

Nobody’s going to thank you. Nobody’s going to welcome you. Nobody’s going to acknowledge what you have learned or how much you’ve grown. It’s only people walking through the dungeon that will look at people and understand where they are—give them advice, push them. Well, that’s what this letter is about.

Good luck. I’m not saying goodbye yet. I’ll be writing to you for a long time.

You’re one of the Steve Ballmers. You’ve become the leader whisperer. You’re a person who writes criticism, advises leaders, and plays a superuser role in real estate. That’s probably my future anyway. I’m already doing it for you.

I hope you found this letter to be enlightening, to be helpful. I hope it pushed you forward to the next stage of your life. Looking forward to working with you.

Just one request:

The world of communication has to be open. You have to open your inbox. You have to chat with people. You have to make at least one hour a day to just hit up people saying hello. Not you opening the door to get unlimited messages—but you making an inbox call. So it’s regular Elon just talking to everybody, saying hello, talking to parents, talking to politicians, talking to doctors—just chatting with people.

Then go on your X account and tweet. If that person wants to have followers or whatever—fine. I personally don’t want that. I never want you to follow me. I never want you to like my tweets. I like my privacy.

I guess my vision, my future, is to be just like Linus Torvalds—unknown, but always working on code, and working with AI, and working on great projects.

Anyway—good luck with everything.

I look forward to seeing your transformation. I look forward to seeing you rehabilitate yourself—fixing things like Tesla, testing yourself, and launching X.AI 2.0, Civilization 2.0, and working with you on the SpaceX internet.

You have to destroy T-Mobile, AT&T, and all of this. Anyway, I guess you have some things you can milk for the sake of the people to push us to Civilization 2.0.

I look forward to our discussion in private.

Good luck with everything.
