The issue with that trope is that while Musk's bet on good always winning in the end, that may not be for many generations. We're still fighting for an equality that's been fought for thousands of years. Fanatical Muslims fighting against Fanatical Christians as a facade covering a war for resources. Who is good? Who is bad? Are either one really any worse than the other? I'm hoping that his bet moves us towards a more utopian society. Sadly, while I'm an optimist, my cynicism prevents me from believing that humanity will allow us to get there. The winners are the ones that write the history books, while the losers are painted to be evil, if they're even included in the history books at all. Some are even written out of the history books and not taught in schools in the hope that in a generation or two they're forgotten. Humanity doesn't exactly have a very inspiring track record when it comes to good always winning... in fact, its track record is pretty abysmal.
