These abhorrent rich are digging their bunkers as deep as they can right now folks. They are actively trying to destroy the worlds population and leave just the 2500 or so BILLIONAIRES that now live on the planet. And they know they are going to have to hide, VERY DEEP.

Pst, your blueprints, air systems, AND you private detail are compromised already. When you fucks enact your end game, you'll be reminded there is no hole deep enough to hide in.

You just couldn't be happy being rich. WE have become too much of an inconvenience to you.

Tick tock.....

Thing is, they need to bring their help and the help won't be happy if their families are left high and dry. These people are just too fucking stupid

I suspect they have some sort of plan how to solve that conundrum. We should ask Curtis Yarvin.

Oh I am sure they planned and maybe even got the Saudis to consult. But I still think they are too stupid to realize the flaws of those plans. Even if they were as smart as they think they are, it's difficult to predict how things will work after the civilization they depend on for their power collapses. Hell, it probably doesn't matter how smart you are, such a scenario is inherently unpredictable.

Blinkered I'd say. Self-obsessed. Neverending greed is a mental condition. Either way, it has very little to do with intelligence imo.

Someone last year was talking about plans being discussed involving "obedience collars" which I assume are just shock collars that have the ability to kill.

You can come into safety as a slave or die outside.

They probably have a small group of people whom they treat very well specifically so they won't shoot them in the back once they're the only ones with the guns in post-apocalyptic world.

I always wonder about that because you need a lot of people to function in an "end of the world scenario". It just feels like the ones that are doing the real work are the ones with the power in that case.
