    Bunkers aren’t gonna do shit if climate change really kicks off. None of those assholes can grow their own food or anything else they would need to do to survive longer than your average prepper. They’ll make nice targets for desperate people to spend a lot of resources trying to open though.

      This is why Larry Ellison bought almost the entirety of Lānaʻi (and Zuckerberg bought some of the remainder). Not only does it have an eight-mile moat between it and the rest of Hawai‘i, it’s also got great climate and fertile volcanic soil. In fact, it was formerly the world’s largest pineapple plantation.

        Raise your hand if, when the shit goes down, you’re going to care about who bought what land.

        Now raise your hand if you’re going to be re-enacting scenes from the “Mad Max” movie franchise.

      yes. but capitalism’s main skills are myopia and delusion, and being a billionaire in particular poisons your brain, ruins your perception of scale consequence and responsibility just as it bloats your self opinion.
